TIFF 2025: Frankenstein, Knives Out 3, and all the biggest movies from Toronto

The Toronto International Film Festival is almost like a preview of the movie slate for the next few months — and this year I’m watching as much as possible to give you all the scoop on what’s ahead. To do that, I’ll be writing a dispatch covering every movie I’ve seen that day, which will run daily throughout most of the festival. That includes bigger movies you probably already know about, like Netflix’s Wake Up Dead Man and Frankenstein, along with hopefully some great new films you maybe wer

The Database File The complete state of an SQLite database is usually contained in a single file on disk called the "main database file". During a transaction, SQLite stores additional information in a second file called the "rollback journal", or if SQLite is in WAL mode, a write-ahead log file. 1.1.

Blogs used to be different

Blogs used to be very different. 06 Sep, 2025 I saw someone earlier post about how intrusive it felt to read a personal blog post. They made a point that folks like them who have grown up on short form microblogging like Twitter and Tumblr have a big leap to make when reading longer form blogposts. Not sure how many folks have that same issue but from the blogs I've read in the last decade, there has been a huge shift in content. Ten years ago if you were blogging on Tumblr or Wordpress you w

Porsche and Audi's EVs can now recharge on any Tesla Supercharger in North America

Starting September 9, Porsche and Audi will be the latest non-Tesla brands to utilize the Supercharger network. The two automakers announced that some of their owners will get adapters that allow them to charge via the NACS port, which Tesla developed and opened up to other automakers. The rollout comes after the Volkswagen Group, which owns both Porsche and Audi, announced that it would implement NACS compatibility for Volkswagen, Audi, Porsche and Scout Motors in December 2023.

Oldest recorded transaction The other day I posted a tweet with this image which I thought was funny: This is the oldest transaction database from 3100 BC - recording accounts of malt and barley groats. Considering this thing survived 5000 years (holy shit!) with zero downtime and has stronger durability guarantees than most databases today. I call it rock solid durability. This got me thinking, can I insert this date in today’s database? What is the oldest timestamp a database can support?

Anonymous recursive functions in Racket

Anonymous recursive functions in Racket Context Some languages, like PowerShell, have “anonymous recursive functions”. That is, normally, a function needs to use a name to refer to itself to recur. But “anonymous recursion” means the language has some special mechanism by which the function can refer to itself without having to explicitly introduce a name. In some contexts, this is called an anaphoric reference. Code Here we show how we can easily implement this feature in Racket. The file a

‘Witch Hat Atelier’ Anime Gets Delayed Into 2026

Bad news for anyone looking forward to watching the anime adaptation of Witch Hat Atelier: it’s leaving 2026 and coming sometime next year. Animation studio Bug Films announced the delay on Twitter, explaining it needed more time to “deliver the charm of the work with even higher quality. All staff are working hard on the production, and we sincerely apologize for this disappointing news to everyone who has been looking forward to the broadcast.” Before now, Bug was pretty quiet about it since

Trump Admin Raids Hyundai Construction Site as US Manufacturing Jobs Keep Shrinking

Almost 500 people were detained Thursday in an immigration raid at a new Hyundai manufacturing complex in Georgia. The massive raid highlights growing tensions between President Donald Trump’s anti-immigration policies, his tariff-fueled trade negotiations, and his promise to bring manufacturing jobs back to the U.S. “This was the largest single-site enforcement operation in the history of Homeland Security Investigations,” said Steven Schrank, a special agent in charge of the agency’s Atlanta

Major Amazon Prime Benefit Faces Crackdown Next Month

If you're using a friend or family member's free Prime shipping and you don't live in the same household, you might need to pay another monthly cost.

Amazon isn't the first company to prevent membership sharing between family and friends. The e-commerce giant is just the latest to follow Netflix's account-sharing crackdown. We also saw

5 Things We Loved, 3 Things We Didn’t About ‘Wednesday’ Season 2 Part 2

Season 2 of Wednesday is finally available to watch in its entirety on Netflix. And while the first half introduced a solid return, the second half almost holds up before a messy to-be-continued conclusion. Tim Burton puts his whole Burtonesque business on full display with a third-act antagonist reveal that both works and doesn’t. The Addams family being at the mechanical heart of another mystery creates a lot of fun lore for Wednesday (Jenna Ortega) to discover about her parents. This time Mo

Researchers Discover 18 Popular VPNs Are Connected: Why This Matters

Virtual private networks are popular ways to keep your online activity private and hide your physical location from your internet service provider and apps. But it's obviously important to choose a safe and secure VPN. Three university researchers have discovered that 18 of the most widely used VPNs have shared infrastructures with serious security flaws that could expose customers' browsing activity and leave their systems vulnerable to corrupted data. These VPNs are among the top 100 most pop

Defense Department Scrambles to Pretend It’s Called the War Department

The Pentagon’s website and social media channels were overhauled Friday at President Donald Trump’s behest to reflect the United States Defense Department’s new “Department of War” persona, shifting from Defense.gov to War.gov—a symbolic rebranding that highlights the administration’s preference for projecting strength through the language of war rather than the idiom of defense. Trump on Friday signed an executive order directing the Pentagon to once again be named the so-called Department of

Personalized AI companion app Dot is shutting down

Dot, an AI companion app that aimed to be a friend and confidante, is shutting down, the company announced on Friday. On a message published on its website, the startup behind Dot, New Computer, said that the product will remain operational until October 5, giving users time to download their data.

‘Foundation’ Just Lowered the Boom

Season three of Foundation is nearly at its end, and the galaxy is in deep trouble. We’ve long known the fall of Empire would usher in a long period of darkness, something the Foundation was set up hundreds of years ago to try and mitigate. But while the end seems certain, exactly how it’ll come about has not yet been clear. The villainous Mule is certainly helping nudge things along… but might another doom-bringing element also emerge? “The Paths That Choose Us,” the ninth and penultimate epis

Samsung wasn’t even the second-most popular foldable maker in Q2 2025

Ryan Haines / Android Authority TL;DR Samsung only accounted for third place in foldable phone shipments in Q2 2025, according to Counterpoint Research. HUAWEI was in first place, while Motorola was the runner-up. This report doesn’t take Samsung’s latest foldables into account, as they launched in Q3. Foldable phones only account for a small number of smartphones shipping globally, but a new market share report has revealed some bad news for Samsung for Q2 2025. Counterpoint Research has p
