TL;DR Nothing has posted a video showing co-founder Carl Pei reacting to Nothing Phone 3 reviews. Pei defended the Glyph Matrix rear screen and its limited uses, claiming that there will be a rich ecosystem in the future. He also defended the use of the Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 chip, saying the company wasn’t catering to ‘spec warriors.’ Nothing launched the Nothing Phone 3 earlier this month, and it looks like a well-rounded Android phone.

9to5mac.com Ben Lovejoy 2026-01-25 23:44:19

A legal ruling could see Apple banned from selling iPhones made with Chinese displays within the US. The ruling is not yet final, but looks very likely to take effect later this year. Apple would be banned from the US sale of any iPhone whose display was made by China’s BOE, after the company was found to have stolen manufacturing techniques from Samsung … Apple sources iPhone displays from three companies: Samsung, LG, and BOE.

I really hate it when I’m exposed to some horrible news online, and feel powerless. There is nothing I can do, I am not responsible, and yet at the same time I have this feeling “this shouldn’t be happening”. There is a temptation to immediately react – if it was printed, I would crumple up the paper and throw it away – yet, reading pixels on the screen I don’t have the right gesture to express my discontent.

Get the macOS Finder to Do Just About Anything by Typing Natural Language Commands

wired.com Justin Pot 2026-01-25 23:30:00

I'm genuinely not sure if large language models—often referred to as “AI” in shorthand—are the future of computing. But I also don't think chatbots are how people will use this technology in the years to come. Substage, an indie Mac application by developer Joseph Humfrey, is a simple app that points to a potential alternative—one that's useful right now. This application floats under every Finder window, meaning you see it only when you're browsing files in macOS. You can type English-languag

Apple’s machine learning framework is getting support for NVIDIA’s CUDA platform

Apple’s MLX machine learning framework, originally designed for Apple Silicon, is getting a CUDA backend, which is a pretty big deal. Here’s why. The work is being led by developer @zcbenz on GitHub (via AppleInsider), who started prototyping CUDA support a few months ago. Since then, he split the project into smaller pieces, and gradually merged them into Apple’s MLX’s main branch.

The company released the third public beta of the software on July 15, but it didn't change much on the iPhones of developers and beta testers.
