A rare look inside the durability lab where Apple tortures its products

9to5mac.com Ben Lovejoy 2025-08-13 16:00:00

Apple puts its products through a lot of tests during the development process, intended to ensure they have a long and reliable life even in challenging conditions. The company tests at least 10,000 iPhones prior to launch in an attempt to cover all the bases. It’s not often the iPhone maker lets outsiders into its labs, but Apple invited some of those attending WWDC 2025 to visit one to see for themselves the conditions it expects its gadgets to survive … To be clear, it’s not the first time

Prompting LLMs is not engineering

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-08-14 07:38:04

Prompting LLMs is not engineering published in: With the proliferation of AI models and tools, there's a new industry-wide fascination with snake oil remedies called "prompt engineering". As of July 2025 the term is now "context engineering" or "context prompting" or "context manipulation". To put it succinctly, prompt engineering is nothing but an attempt to reverse-engineer a non-deterministic black box for which any of the parameters below are unknown: training set weights constraints o

Eero Pro 7 Review: Great Mesh Networking, Even if You Don’t Have Wi-Fi 7

gizmodo.com Wes Davis 2025-08-15 15:00:29

It’s been years since I had consistently shitty Wi-Fi in my home. Around the time that Apple discontinued its AirPort routers in 2018, I cobbled together a mesh network comprised of a second-generation Eero Pro and one of the company’s entry-level Eeros. I’ve upgraded a couple of times since then, getting higher throughput and a couple extra bells and whistles, but generally the experience has been a stable one that’s asked little of me.

It’s a funny thing, this idea of calling something the best. After all, everyone wants to think that their favorite of anything is the best — the best album, book, or cup of coffee — but that can’t always be true. And, when you apply the idea of being the best to a category as wide open as Android phones, which can come in different shapes, sizes, and prices, the task becomes even greater.
