Invitees outside your household will need their own Prime membership going forward. Sharing online subscriptions used to be the norm, but in the last few years, we’ve seen various companies clamp down on it.

Here’s why Apple’s cheapest iPad is actually the most practical model

9to5mac.com Michael Burkhardt 2025-11-27 03:52:00

As a techie, it’s easy to get caught up in the trap of buying the most expensive devices with the most features. And, for the most part, it’s still a problem. That said, I recently made the decision to switch to Apple’s cheapest iPad, the budget model with an A16 chip. I’m pleasantly surprised with how incredibly useful it truly is – while costing less than a third of an iPad Pro. iPadOS 26 I’ve mentioned it in passing before, but iPadOS 26 sort of ruined how I use my iPad.

Python has had async for 10 years – why isn't it more popular?

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-11-27 03:24:57

The Python Documentary dropped this morning. In the middle of the documentary, there’s a dramatic segment about how the transition from Python 2 to 3 divided the community (spoiler alert: it didn’t in the end). The early versions of Python 3 (3.0-3.4) were mostly focused on stability and offering pathways for users moving from 2.7. Along came 3.5 in 2015 with a new feature: async and await keywords for executing coroutines. Ten years and nine releases later, Python 3.14 is weeks away. Whilst

Tesla’s fourth ‘Master Plan’ reads like LLM-generated nonsense

Tesla has published its fourth so-called “Master Plan,” and at a high level it is about how the company wants to lead the charge into planet-wide adoption of humanoid robots and sustainable energy. But the post lacks an important building block of plans: specifics. Even CEO Elon Musk agrees. In one of his only posts about the plan since it was published on Monday — sandwiched in between a steady stream of transphobia and immigration panic — he agreed it was fair to criticize the lack of specif

Amazon will sell you the Samsung S25 Edge for $400 off right now - it's lowest price ever

Kerry Wan/ZDNET Samsung took the hard road when it launched the ultra-thin and lightweight Galaxy S25 Edge back in May. The phone had a mere 3,900mAh battery (not enough to be considered "diabolical," as the teens would say, but barely able to last a full day), lacked a dedicated telephoto lens, and demanded a $1,100 price tag.
