Giving a talk at a conference is an incredible opportunity: for a moment, you have the community’s attention. If you can give a good talk, the community will pay more attention to your work! But what makes a good talk? I spoke at PLMW 2025 on this topic—“How to give a good talk”. You can read an edited t

Google critics think the search remedies ruling is a total whiff

theverge.com Jay Peters 2025-10-23 05:06:24

Today’s ruling is a reminder of Google’s sweeping power over the online economy, but the limited remedies ordered by the court demonstrate why we need additional rules of the road for Big Tech. That’s why we must pass my bipartisan American Innovation and Choice Online Act to stop dominant platforms like Google from continuing to unfairly preference their own products over competitors’ — which hurts consumers and entrepreneurs, and stifles innovation.

gizmodo.com Lucas Ropek 2025-10-24 01:30:10

For the better part of a decade, tech investor Balaji Srinivasan has been calling for Silicon Valley to “secede” from the rest of the United States. The free-market tech guru doesn’t just want space from regulators and government officials; he literally wants the industry’s coders and bigwigs to split off and crowdfund their own separate country. Over the years, Srinivasan has articulated his own political philosophy, which he calls “the network state” movement—an anarcho-capitalist school of t

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-10-23 03:25:10

After going all out for its big summer release wave in August, things are definitely a bit quieter in September for Lego.
