I replaced my Galaxy S25 Plus with the S25 Edge (and Samsung may do the same)

zdnet.com Prakhar Khanna 2025-08-04 10:38:00

Kerry Wan/ZDNET The Galaxy S25 Edge was my unexpected favorite phone in Samsung's S-series lineup this year. I previously wrote about how it had one major fault, but is the compact phone for content consumption in 2025. It just might not make sense to exist alongside the Plus model with the adoption of silicon-carbon batteries -- and Samsung might agree. Also: Samsung's ultra-thin Galaxy phone is a greatly misunderstood device - and I shamelessly love it According to a new report from The Ele

Adding lookbehinds to rust-lang/regex

news.ycombinator.com Robin Hänni 2025-08-04 10:37:15

In a previous blogpost, Erik wrote about how he implemented the linear time matching algorithm from [RegElk+PLDI24] in the popular regex engine RE2. In this one, we're looking at how to do the same thing for the official regex engine from the Rust language. Namely, we add support for unbounded captureless lookbehinds. First, let's discover the newly supported feature and its limitations. Lookbehinds allow regexes to make assertions about things preceding some part of the regex pattern without c

This Special Edition Release of ‘It’ Is Both Gorgeous and Terrifying

It has been a TV miniseries and a two-part feature film, and a prequel series—It: Welcome to Derry—is coming to HBO later this year. But there’s no out-creeping the original 1986 Stephen King novel, released long before the phrase “un-Google-able title” came into existence. With over 1,100 pages, it’s one of King’s longest works, and to have even a paperback copy means you’ll need ample shelf space.

Can Apple Actually Make a Foldable iPhone With a ‘Crease-Free’ Display?

gizmodo.com Raymond Wong 2025-08-04 15:21:22

Samsung has set the bar high for foldables with its latest Galaxy Z Fold 7. The book-style foldable really is jaw-dropping. Apple’s answer to it with a foldable iPhone needs to be even better. But how? Apple supply chain snoop Ming-Chi Kuo believes Apple’s rumored foldable iPhone could come with a “crease-free display”… made by Samsung. Yes, really.

Cloudflare has become the first internet intermediary beyond local residential ISPs, to block access to pirate sites in the UK. Users attempting to access certain pirate sites are greeted with 'Error 451 - Unavailable for Legal Reasons'. In theory, ISP blocking should prevent UK users from even seeing this notice, but a combination of Cloudflare's blocking mechanism and choices made by some VPN users results in a piracy dead end.
