Apple’s insanely complex App Store terms could point to 20% commission globally

9to5mac.com Ben Lovejoy 2025-08-24 06:07:28

Apple last week announced an insanely complex set of changes to its App Store terms in the EU, and hidden in the small–print is one sign that the company might be reducing its standard commission from 30% to 20%, and that it may make this change globally. If so, it would be the first time the company has ever reduced its 30% cut for all developers, and might go a long way to tackling its legal battles with antitrust regulators around the world … We last week reported on a set of sweeping chang

news.ycombinator.com Max Springer 2025-08-21 08:59:28

But even as chips shrink and gain speed, theorists are flipping the question from how much computation space we can pack into a machine to how little is enough to get the job done. This inquiry lies at the heart of computational complexity, a measu

A critical US atmospheric data collection program will be halted by Monday, giving weather forecasters just days to prepare, according to a public notice sent this week.

Time Is Three-Dimensional and Space Is Just a Side Effect, Scientist Says

futurism.com Unknown 2025-08-23 16:45:06

A fringe new theory suggests that time is the fundamental structure of the physical universe, and space is merely a byproduct. According to Gunther Kletetschka, a geologist — not a physicist, you'll note, but more on that later — from the University of Alaska Fairbanks, time is three-dimensional and the dimensions of space are an emergent property of it, a press release from the university explains.
