How AI sales startup Landbase nabbed Ashton Kutcher’s Sound Ventures to lead its $30M Series A

When Daniel Saks was working as a co-CEO of the previous startup he co-founded, AppDirect, billionaire Michael Dell sent him a LinkedIn message asking for a meeting.

It actually was Michael.” That interaction taught him a less

Apple's Liquid Glass is Windows Vista done well

It's hard to look at Apple's new "Liquid Glass" aesthetic and not think about Windows Vista, Microsoft's much-maligned OS which also touted transparencies and glass-like effects as a bold new vision for computing. You can see the similarities between Apple's UI and Vista's "Windows Aero" design language everywhere, from the glassified app icons in iOS 26 and macOS Tahoe 26 which look a lot like VIsta's glossy icons, to the transparent backgrounds used in drop down menus, which hearken back to VI

Think before you click: Experts warn email "Unsubscribe" links pose security risks

In a nutshell: A common rule of thumb advises unsubscribing from commercial emails if they are annoying or outright spam.

Elon Musk says Tesla robotaxi rides in Austin 'tentatively' set to begin June 22

Earlier on Tuesday, Musk shared a video on X showing that Tesla was testing driverless vehicles on the roads of Austin without a human safety supervisor behind the wheel.
