Meet the Top 10 AI-Proof Jobs That Everyone Wants

AI is rapidly scaling in the workforce and creating fears of an employment crisis, as workers and people entering the workforce try to figure out if their career is on the chopping block. That quick pace is backed by emerging data. As a result, people are trying to find “AI-proof” jobs that can guarantee job security as companies around the world choose to automate tasks instead of hiring new workers. Although no study can definitively say which occupations are 100% AI-proof and which are doom

Replacing a Cache Service with a Database

Replacing a cache service with a database I’ve been thinking about this: will we ever replace caches entirely with databases? In this post I will share some ideas and how we are moving towards it. tl;dr we are still not there, yet. Why do we even use caches? Caches solve one important problem: providing pre-computed data at insanely low latencies, compared to databases. I am talking about typical use cases where we use a cache along with the db (cache aside pattern), where the application alw

Best Handheld Fan and Wearable Fan (2025), Tested and Reviewed

This fan was a godsend during a sweltering outdoor concert. It bends at the neck, so I was able to set it up on the picnic table and blast it toward my face without even holding it, then straighten it back into the standard position to carry it with me as I walked around. It also comes with a lanyard that allows you to hang it from your neck. It felt stronger than the other handheld fans I tested, and I liked that the blades were contained, which made the airflow feel more concentrated and meant

What to read this weekend: Two thrilling horror novels in one

Once again (or twice, really, because this book is two novels in one), Stephen Graham Jones delivers on some really gripping, fun horror that spins some classic tropes into something unexpected. This double feature contains The Babysitter Lives and Killer on the Road, the first being a story about a night of babysitting gone horribly, supernaturally wrong on the eve of Halloween, and the latter a road trip from hell situation in which a hitchhiker-targeting serial killer sets his sights on a run

What Tech Jobs Don’t Drug Test? That Might Depend

Workers who live in states where cannabis is legal often face a conundrum. Can they continue using a substance deemed by lawmakers to be fit for public consumption, even if they may have an employer who might drug test? Or do they avoid it all together, because they don’t know what their employer’s drug policy is? And does that policy include only “hard” drugs like cocaine, opioids or methamphetamines, or does it test for cannabis too? These days, the answer is a lot more flexible than it was

‘Magic’ Weaves New Mechanics and Cards for Spider-Man Set

Less than a month out from Magic: The Gathering’s Spider-Man set, Wizards of the Coast has given it a full unveiling with reveals of more cards and gameplay mechanics for its crossover with Marvel’s webhead and friends. Wizards previously revealed a selection of cards at San Diego Comic-Con back in July.

These are the 6 things I’m hoping for on the new reMarkable device headed to shelves

Kaitlyn Cimino / Android Authority Earlier this week, the reMarkable team dropped a playful teaser with the suggestive tagline, “something is on the move.” The clip is choppy, fast-paced, and intentionally ambiguous, leaving shoppers guessing exactly what’s headed to shelves on September 3 at 8:00 AM ET. To be clear, I really like my ReMarkable Paper Pro (I even gave it 4 stars during my review), but who doesn’t love an upgrade? With the countdown to the reveal underway, here’s my wishlist. Wh

I'm working on implementing a programming language all my own

To the surprise of literally no one, I'm working on implementing a programming language all my own Inspired by conversation at a recent Future of Coding event, I decided I’d write up a little something about the programming language I’ve been working on (for what feels like forever) before I’ve gotten it to a totally shareable state. I have a working interpreter that I’m pretty pleased with, but I don’t yet have an interactive environment for creating, exploring, debugging, and running code — I

SQLite's documentation about its durability properties is unclear

One of the most important properties of a database is durability. Durability means that after a transaction commits, you can be confident that, absent catastrophic hardware failure, the changes made by the commit won't be lost. This should remain true even if the operating system crashes or the system loses power soon after the commit. On Linux, and most other Unix operating systems, durability is ensured by calling the fsync system call at the right time. Durability comes at a performance cost

Samsung Galaxy Tab S11 and Galaxy S25 FE leaks are getting even better as Unpacked looms

TL;DR Samsung’s got an Unpacked event scheduled for September 4, where we’re expect the Tab S11 series and S25 FE to debut. This afternoon we get a look at some promo material for the phone and the Ultra tablet. Similar imagery leaked earlier this week, and now we get to see some higher-quality variants. Samsung’s second Unpacked event of the summer is coming up fast, and just a few days back the company shared its plans for a virtual announcement scheduled to take place on September 4. We’re

Alibaba shares jump 13% as AI drives cloud unit acceleration

Alibaba posted a better-than-expected bottom line in the June quarter fueled by accelerated sales at its cloud computing unit and a continued revival of its e-commerce business. Still, the Chinese giant's revenues came in under analyst forecasts. Alibaba's stock climbed 12.9% in the U.S. after initially dipping. Here's how Alibaba did in its fiscal first quarter ended June, compared with LSEG estimates: Revenue: 247.65 billion Chinese yuan ($34.6 billion), versus 252.9 billion yuan expected.

I dream of a gadget that can do it all. Instead, when I leave for the office, I pack one or two phones, a portable battery bank, a laptop, a Kindle, a new product I’m testing, and at least one pair of earbuds. In my backpack, there’s a pouch full of cords and adapters. On my body, I usually sport between two and four wearable devices.
