'Ironheart' Review: Marvel Series Is Not Too Heavy, but It's Not Too Light, Either

cnet.com See Full Bio 2025-09-18 01:00:03

The first time Riri Williams' solo TV show was mentioned was in 2020 when Kevin Feige announced Ironheart and Secret Invasion along with a few other Marvel Phase 5 releases. He said both series would tie in with Marvel's feature films. It's true: Ironheart is connected to the larger MCU -- aside from Black Panther: Wakanda Forever -- and for that reason alone, you should watch all six episodes of the series to the end. All the way to the very end. Ironheart is streaming its first three episodes

DJI ‘remains committed to the US market’ as shelves go bare of drones

is a senior editor and founding member of The Verge who covers gadgets, games, and toys. He spent 15 years editing the likes of CNET, Gizmodo, and Engadget. Is DJI exiting the US drone market? The company says no — but it would not explain to The Verge what has changed such that it can’t even keep a single drone on shelves.

The economics behind "Basic Economy" – A masterclass in price discrimination

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-09-18 05:55:53

Basic Economy fares are ultra-restricted airline tickets that offer a lower base price in exchange for fewer benefits than standard economy class. Introduced by major U.S. carriers in the 2010s, these fares have become a widespread strategy for market segmentation - a textbook example of price discrimination in practice. By design, Basic Economy compels travelers to self-select based on their willingness to pay and tolerate restrictions, thus allowing airlines to maximize revenue from different

Ancient X11 scaling technology

People keep telling me that X11 doesn’t support DPI scaling, or fractional scaling, or multiple monitors, or something. There’s nothing you can do to make it work. I find this surprising. Why doesn’t it work? I figure the best way to find out is try the impossible and see how far we get. I’m just going to draw a two inch circle on the screen.

‘Witcher’ Author Understands Why George R.R. Martin Is Taking So Long on ‘Winds of Winter’

It’s been over a decade since the last Witcher book was released—2013’s Season of Storms, which got an English translation in 2018—but there’s a new title coming very soon from Andrzej Sapkowski: September’s Crossroads of Ravens. In between books, Netflix launched its hit Witcher series, which still has a fourth and fifth season yet to share. That puts Sapkowski on a different sort of timeline from another author whose fans have been waiting awhile for a new book to arrive in his adapted-for-TV

Bacteria can be engineered to sense a variety of molecules, such as pollutants or soil nutrients, but usually these signals must be detected microscopically. Now Christopher Voigt, head of MIT’s Department of Biological Engineering, and colleagues have triggered bacterial cells to produce signals that can be read from as far as 90 meters away. Their work could lead to the development of sensors for agricultural and other applications, which could be monitored by drones or satellites. The resea

Subsecond: A runtime hotpatching engine for Rust hot-reloading

§Subsecond: Hot-patching for Rust Subsecond is a library that enables hot-patching for Rust applications. This allows you to change the code of a running application without restarting it. This is useful for game engines, servers, and other long-running applications where the typical edit-compile-run cycle is too slow. Subsecond also implements a technique we call “ThinLinking” which makes compiling Rust code significantly faster in development mode, which can be used outside of hot-patching.
