Let’s Talk About the Ending of ‘Ironheart’

gizmodo.com Justin Carter 2026-03-09 15:00:37

The final half of Marvel’s Ironheart has premiered, and it’s got quite a bit going on. Like other MCU shows, it offers some tantalizing hints for the future and offers interesting spins on what’s come before. Our finale, “The Past is the Past,” opens with a flashback to the botched heist Parker and John pulled together, as seen in episode four. We watch Parker try to escape his father Arthur’s estate, and as he’s about to be caught, he’s saved by a guy in a hood. The guy, played by Sasha Baron

Startups working on AI-powered e-commerce tools often rely on external data or user signals to build and improve their models. However, a company called Remark is taking a different approach by letting thousands of human experts chat with users while they are purchasing items, and then using that knowledge to train models.

On June 2nd, US Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy traveled to Newark Liberty International Airport to celebrate the reopening of runway 4L-22R. This was unusual: few runway openings are glamorous enough to warrant a visit from the airport’s CEO, let alone a cabinet secretary.

The more we learn about what that looks like in practice, the less it sounds like a good idea.

On June 18, the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board (TTAB) dismissed our fraud claim against Oracle. We disagree with this decision. That claim alleged Oracle knowingly misled the USPTO in its 2019 renewal by submitting a screenshot of the Node.js website to show use of the “JavaScript” trademark. As the creator of Node.js, I find that especially offensive. Node.js was never an Oracle product or brand.
