15 Years If Jefit

Embrace the Grind: 15 Years of Building Jefit The Start of Something I Didn't Expect to Last 15 Years Fifteen years ago, Jefit wasn't a company. It wasn't even a business idea. It was just a project I started in my dad's living room in North Carolina, fresh out of college, working from my own laptop. I was broke and unsure about the future, frustrated by how hard it was to track workouts. There was no easy way to stay consistent or see real progress. I wasn't chasing a startup dream, jus

5 security cameras you should buy instead of Google Nest ones

C. Scott Brown / Android Authority It’s hard to blame anyone for feeling fed up with Google Nest cameras right now. The latest Nest Aware price hike means users will soon be paying up to $200 a year, with zero new features to show for it. That’s on top of already pricey hardware, limited local storage options, and a system that some feel might actually be getting worse rather than better. Maybe you’re already planning to cancel like some of these angry Redditors. Maybe you’re just Nest-curious

CP/M Creator Gary Kildall's Memoirs Released as Free Download

The year before his death in 1994, Gary Kildall—inventor of the early microcomputer operating system CP/M—wrote a draft of a memoir, “Computer Connections: People, Places, and Events in the Evolution of the Personal Computer Industry.” He distributed copies to family and friends, but died before realizing his plans to release it as a book. This week, the Computer History Museum in Mountain View, with the permission of Kildall’s children, released the first portion of that memoir. You can downlo

No More Waiting: New Crypto Law Unlocks Cheaper, Faster Money for Everyone

For more than a decade, cryptocurrency lived in legal limbo. It was too weird to regulate, too volatile to trust, and too new for Washington to take seriously. That just changed. The U.S. House of Representatives has passed the GENIUS Act, the first major federal law regulating stablecoins, digital currencies backed by the U.S. dollar. The bill now heads to President Trump’s desk, where it’s expected to become law. Here’s what it means for you, your money, and the financial system around you.

The Hottest Movie Releases Dropping in 2025

This has been an epic year for movies, and 2025 is only halfway over. A collection of tentpole titles and must-see blockbusters has already hit the big screen. The trend of studios mining established IP continues, and popular franchises' remakes, sequels and spin-offs will compete for audiences' attention. James Gunn's Superman was way up on our list of must-see blockbusters in 2025, which was compiled at the beginning of the year. If you read my review, you'll know that it delivered. Anthony

No, That Taste of Wine a Server Offers Is Not to See if You Like It. Here's Why

Ordering wine at a restaurant shouldn't be a stressful occasion, but there is plenty of language and ritual associated with wine that can feel foreign to the casual drinker. One such practice is the obligatory tasting after the bottle is opened and before it's poured for you and your guests. Despite what you -- and many others -- might think, this is not really to determine if you like the wine, but rather, to ensure the wine is not spoiled or "corked." Because of that, you don't even need to s

7 Best Coffee Concentrates for Instant Caffeine (2025)

If you know a thing or two about coffee, you might find the other brands recommended here too lowbrow. But can you out-taste a coffee sommelier? Kloo's coffee concentrates are curated by such tasters, also known as “Q Graders,” and I couldn't stop saying “Wow” out loud while I tested the brand's offerings. From the upscale, frosted packaging and shiny metal stopper to the included measuring jigger, I was impressed upon first glance. And once I mixed in a shot full of the extract-consistency liqu

'Eddington' Director Ari Aster Couldn’t Stand ‘Living in the Internet.’ So He Made a Movie About It

Like a lot of us, Ari Aster spent the summer of 2020 trapped inside and scrolling on social media. Also like a lot of us, the experience left him feeling pretty bad. “I was living on Twitter,” Aster tells WIRED, “and it was really agitating me.” But unlike most people, the director of Hereditary, Midsommar, and Beau is Afraid wasn’t just doomscrolling on Twitter to pass the time. He was doing research. That summer, Aster wrote the script for his latest film, Eddington, a modern western set in

ChatGPT’s preset styles could make image transformations dead simple (APK teardown)

Calvin Wankhede / Android Authority TL;DR ChatGPT is working on an Image Styles feature that would add a pre-defined instruction set to your prompt to achieve a specific image style in your results. Users would be able to select from aesthetic styles such as “Anime,” “Cyberpunk,” “Coloring Book,” and more. These styles can be added as instructions for converting existing images or generating new ones. ChatGPT’s image generation capabilities are pretty nifty, and it’s largely credited for spa

Also: I speed-tested 11 browsers - and the fastest might surprise you Some web browsers were created by companies with the hope of monetizing anything and everything. From search deals with Google and crypto-mining ads to sponsored content and just about every other way they can make a buck off your browsing. After mulling over

Crypto’s Wild West Era Is Over

For more than a decade, cryptocurrency lived in a regulatory gray zone. Loved by libertarians, feared by bankers, and mocked by lawmakers, it was treated like a side project of the internet, too weird to regulate and too volatile to embrace. That era just ended. The U.S. House of Representatives has officially passed the GENIUS Act, a landmark bill that sets federal rules for stablecoins—the digital currencies pegged to the U.S. dollar. The bill is expected to be signed into law by President Do

Adam Mosseri to hand off day-to-day at Threads to Meta’s AI lead

The move marks the first time someone outside Instagram will take the reins of the text-based social app, in yet another sign that Meta seems to be finally getting serio

How to restart your Windows 11 PC when nothing else works

yusnizam/Getty Images Usually, whenever a new feature comes out for Windows, Microsoft advertises it widely in a blog post to let everyone know. Or if they don't, people discover the feature soon after an update. However, a helpful feature sometimes slips through the cracks, only to be unearthed years later. Also: Hate Windows 11? Here's how you can make it work more like Windows 10 That was my reaction when I found this obscure Emergency Restart method for Windows 11 after stumbling across a

Louisiana cancels $3B coastal repair funded by oil spill settlement

NEW ORLEANS (AP) — Louisiana on Thursday canceled a $3 billion repair of disappearing Gulf coastline, funded by the 2010 Deepwater Horizon oil spill settlement, scrapping what conservationists called an urgent response to climate change but Gov. Jeff Landry viewed as a threat to the state’s way of life. Despite years of studies and reviews, the project at the center of Louisiana’s coastal protection plans grew increasingly imperiled after Landry, a Republican, took office last year. Its collaps

USB-C hubs and my slow descent into madness (2021)

2021-04-25 2022-10-14 electronics, hardware Just to start this off on a fun note: this article is not a review. This fact will become clear later on, but I figured it’s worth highlighting that just in case somebody finds this text via their search engine of least distrust. I have one of those laptops lacking a lot of accessory ports. In fact, I’m writing this on an Apple MacBook Pro, and all I got was four lousy USB-C ports. If I want to connect pretty much anything, I need some sort of adapte

How We Test Antivirus Software

Protecting your devices from viruses and other malware is incredibly important, but effective antivirus detection isn’t the only thing to consider when choosing security software. You also want to ensure that the program won’t slow your devices down or interfere with everyday tasks.

Our testing processes are designed to help you find antivirus tools that meet all of these crit

My Favorite All-in-One Kitchen Appliance Is on Sale for 20% Off

Too often, all-in-one kitchen appliances end up doing a lot of things poorly instead of doing one thing well. And, because some models have a lot of components, they can be a nightmare to clean. But the Chefman Everything Maker quickly won me over. The nonstick cooking surfaces heat up quickly and cleanup takes minimal effort (a serious win in my book). I've made crispy hash browns, gooey grilled cheese, breakfast sandwiches and perfectly golden pancakes -- all in one compact machine. And it's

It is a major milestone for the once fringe industry, which has been lobbying Congress over regulation for years and poured millions into last year's election, backing candidates that included Donald Trump. The bill sets up a regulatory regime for so-called stablecoins, a kind

If You Thought Your Life Was a Mess, Spare a Thought for Boeing's Starliner

Even after pouring $2 billion into its much-maligned Starliner spacecraft, NASA and Boeing remain committed to getting back off the ground. As Ars Technica reports, the head of NASA's commercial crew program, Steve Stich, revealed last week that Boeing and its propulsion supplier, Aerojet Rocketdyne, are making considerable changes to the astronaut shuttle following a disastrous first crewed mission to the International Space Station last year. The spacecraft experienced several "in-flight ano

My experience with Claude Code after two weeks of adventures

My Experience With Claude Code After 2 Weeks of Adventures 17 Jul, 2025 Hatching... Cursor Shenanigans Cursor, my beloved, started rate limiting shenanigans a few days back. For a good 2 weeks after June 16, 2025, we had almost infinite API request access. I had a lot of code-related work around this time as I was working on Gumroad bounties plus my AI engineering/LLM eval-related consulting work. Apart from just codegen, I also use these tools to onboard/understand codebases faster and just
