9to5mac.com Marcus Mendes 2025-09-28 17:43:51

Since pre-orders opened last Friday, most iPhones have slipped to a 2–3 or 3–4 week delivery forecast, except for the iPhone Air, which remains available on launch day in every configuration but one. A bit of context Earlier this year, The Information reported that, due to demand uncertainty for what turned out to be the iPhone Air, Apple was dedicating just 10% of iPhone manufacturing capacity to this model. The publication said that the standard iPhone 17 would account for 25% of total produ

A Dumb Introduction to z3 using Rust

Recently I have come across a nice article: Many Hard Leetcode Problems are Easy Constraint Problems, and I figured, I really should learn how to use these things! What else do I really have to do? I have had use for solvers (or as they are commonly called: theorem provers) In a previous article, but then I tried to prove the things with good old algorithms. I looked at z3 at the time, but found the whole concept a bit too opaque. Now however, it seemed a bit easier to get into. To be clear, as

As long as there has been AI, there have been people sounding alarms about what it might do to us: rogue superintelligence, mass unemployment, or environmental ruin.
