I've been in tech for decades. Here are 10 ways my home lab keeps me sharp - and employable

Paul Taylor/Getty When I was a kid, my home lab consisted of test tubes and beakers, sodium bicarbonate (baking soda), acetic acid (vinegar), and the occasional boom, followed closely by the sound of my mom in the distance yelling, "David Allen Gewirtz, you stop that right now." When the scold transitioned from "David Gewirtz" to "David Allen Gewirtz," I knew I was in trouble. To be fair, nothing prepared my nontechnical mom and dad to raise a future engineer.

The ‘Neuromancer’ Show Welcomes You Into Its Neon-Lit Dystopia

gizmodo.com Cheryl Eddy 2026-03-21 01:00:51

This is very much an early look—no actors, no plot teases, just a glimpse of a certain key location in William Gibson‘s cyberpunk tale Neuromancer. But “near-future dystopia by way of 1984” is captured correctly here, and that bodes very well for the Apple TV+ series that is, as the tin advertises, currently in production. And this isn’t just a random drop to increase hype for the show, which does not yet have a release date. Neuromancer was published July 1, 1984. Happy anniversary to Gibson a

Another week, another Chinese electric car poised to deliver an extinction event to Western automakers. This time it’s Xiaomi, a Beijing-based tech firm best known for smartphones and the company behind the Porsche Taycan–baiting SU7, which in late-2024 was so popular that Xiaomi increased its sales forecast three times in a matter of months.

Google’s data center energy use doubled in four years

techcrunch.com Tim De Chant 2026-03-21 01:52:39

No wonder Google is desperate for more power: the company’s data centers more than doubled their electricity use in just four years. The eye-popping stat comes from Google’s most recent sustainability report, which it released late last week. In 2024, Google data centers used 30.8 million megawatt-hours of electricity. That’s up from 14.4 million megawatt-hours in 2020, the earliest year Google broke out data center consumption. Google has pledged to use only carbon-free sources of electricity

What should a native DOM templating API look like?

If you read my previous post, The time is right for a DOM templating API, you might be wondering what such an API would look like. Let's dive into that question now. What are we building? First, let's clarify what we're trying to design here, because when people hear the abstract template API idea described, before there's a concrete proposal or examples, they can sometimes think of very different things.

Tesla's Stock Has Fallen Dramatically Since Elon Musk Returned to the Business

When multi-hyphenate billionaire Elon Musk returned to Tesla in May, it was met with a surge of enthusiasm from investors who feared he'd given up on the embattled carmaker during his disastrous stint in government. But that optimism has dimmed significantly as Musk has brought his signature aura of chaos and disappointment back to Tesla — and it's clear in the company's stock price, which has actually fallen since his homecoming in late May.
