‘Major Anomaly’ Behind Latest SpaceX Starship Explosion

wired.com Stephen Clark 2025-09-22 15:38:37

Musk wrote that the nitrogen COPV appears to have failed below its proof pressure, within conditions that should not have damaged the tank. "If further investigation confirms that this is what happened, it is the first time ever for this design," Musk added. Picking Up the Pieces Earlier Wednesday, just hours before the late-night explosion at Starbase, an advisory released by the Federal Aviation Administration showed SpaceX had set June 29 as a tentative launch date for the next Starship tes

After raising $38M, African e-commerce startup Sabi lays off 20%, pivots to traceable exports

techcrunch.com Tage Kene-Okafor 2025-09-22 15:16:01

African B2B e-commerce startup Sabi has laid off around 20% of its workforce (~50 employees) as it pivots from its original retail-focused platform to double down on a growing business in commodity exports. The layoffs, confirmed by the company on Thursday, are part of a broader restructuring aimed at aligning resources with what it describes as rising demand for traceable, ethically sourced commodities, an area it began building out last year under a new vertical called TRACE (Technology Rails

Deezer starts labeling AI-generated music to tackle streaming fraud

techcrunch.com Aisha Malik 2025-09-22 15:25:04

Deezer announced on Friday that it will start labeling albums that include AI-generated tracks as part of its efforts to combat streaming fraud. The company reports that about 18% of the music uploaded each day — more than 20,000 tracks — is now fully AI-generated. Although most of these tracks don’t go viral, Deezer says around 70% of their streams are fake and that they are designed to earn royalties fraudulently. To combat this, AI-generated tracks on Deezer are now clearly tagged. These tr

Planting flags in AI coding territory

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-09-22 19:39:02

Answering this often triggers more questions that shouldn't surprise anyone. Do you have some workable requirements? Have you created meaningful tests aligned with those? Can you understand and fix your code when those tests fail? Are you seeing opportunities to delete code in a way that enhances its value by reducing its liability? In all of these questions, code is ingrained with purpose, hampered by ambiguity, and therefore very much human, even when it lies forgotten in some machine wher

Rise in 'alert fatigue' risks phone users disabling news notifications

news.ycombinator.com Michael Savage 2025-09-22 19:02:07

It has become a feature of modern life – millions of phones simultaneously buzz or sound the alarm as users are notified of breaking news deemed too important to miss. Now evidence is mounting that the prevalence of news alerts is giving rise to “alert fatigue”, with some mobile phone users peppered with as many as 50 notifications a day. The rise of news aggregators such as Apple News and Google on mobile devices means some users can receive more than one alert about the same story. Analysis

Yep, GoPro Should Be Really Worried About Meta’s New ‘Performance’ Smart Glasses

gizmodo.com James Pero 2025-09-22 19:15:34

Meta’s next generation of smart glasses is here, but it’s not Ray-Ban doing the heavy lifting on design. This go-around, it’s Oakley at the center, which may seem like a strange choice at first but makes more sense once you unpack how Meta is positioning its first new pair of smart glasses since its original Ray-Ban collab. In Meta’s words, these things are all about “performance.” What does that mean, exactly? Sports, mostly. This pair focuses primarily on athletes who want to capture footage

Max’s longer commercial breaks bring ad load to 6 minutes per hour

Amazon Prime Video subscribers aren’t the only streaming customers being subjected to longer commercial breaks lately. Warner Bros. Discovery’s (WBD) Max has increased the amount of commercials it shows to US subscribers from approximately four minutes per hour to about six minutes per hour.

‘Dosa Divas’ Is a ‘Spicy’ New Game About Fighting Capitalism With Food

As protesters faced off against ICE agents and law enforcement in Los Angeles, game developers gathered just a few miles away for Summer Game Fest. They’d come to the annual show in early June to show off their games and make professional connections. The team at Outerloop Games was no different. But the studio, led and staffed by brown and Black developers, many of whom are immigrants themselves, had extra precautions to consider: “In case of an ICE raid,” says game director Chandana Ekanayake

However, unlike Amazon, Max isn't trying to hide this increase. The streamer's support page confirms that its Max Basic with Ads plan now shows six minutes of ads per hour.

While many organizations are exploring passwordless authentication, passwords still serve as the main line of defense for most public-facing online services. That said, they come with a heavy management burden. Gartner estimates that 40% of all service desk calls are tied to password issues like expirations, changes, and resets.

The best thermal brush for you will recreate a blow-out type of look on your dry hair—different than a blow-dry brush, which is designed for wet hair but has a similar look.
