news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-12-26 02:12:35

Adaptive Power Could Be the Best Low-Key iOS 26 Feature for Your iPhone's Battery

If you've installed the newest iOS 26 public beta or developer beta, you may be able to get a jump on an upcoming feature that might deliver long-term benefits. Adaptive Power is a setting designed to extend battery power by selectively saving energy in small ways that add up. In fact, I'm looking forward to turning it on and forgetting about it. If you're (rightly) cautious about installing betas, it's something to anticipate when iOS 26 comes out in the fall. Let's look closer at how this tiny

CookUnity Prepared Meal Delivery Review (2025): Chef-Centric Meals

wired.com Matthew Korfhage 2025-12-29 14:36:00

It shouldn't be surprising if a plate of chicken lababdar tastes delicious. The dish is among my favorite North Indian gravies, a slightly edgier cousin of butter chicken that's a bit spicier and tangier but just as creamy. What was surprising was that this particular chicken had arrived in the mail. Specifically, it came in a microwaveable tray from CookUnity meal delivery service that looked a little like a white-label TV dinner—packed up earlier that morning in Seattle, then driven down to m

I tried one of the first Material 3 Expressive apps so I could see the future of Android

Joe Maring / Android Authority Ever since Google announced Material 3 Expressive in May, I’ve been looking forward to getting my hands on Android’s new design language. However, with Android 16 QPR1 not rolling out until later this year, and Google still in the testing phases of Material 3 Expressive redesigns for its apps, it’s going to be a while before we really feel the impact of Android’s big redesign. Thankfully, it’s now possible to get a little taste of what it’ll be like. Last week, t

Do You Need a Barbecue Knife?

wired.com Joe Ray 2025-12-29 16:30:00

A while back at my favorite kitchen-gear trade show, I spotted what appeared to be a trending category: barbecue knives. Their distinguishing characteristics seem to be a fairly tall blade, a shape that encourages a wokka-wokka–style rocking motion, and a target audience that skews heavily toward dudes with beards. Not all of those traits scream “great for grilling,” but I was intrigued. One question immediately stuck in my head: What, if anything, makes a knife grill-friendly? Those I'd come a

Tesla wants to bring robotaxis to San Francisco. Here’s what’s standing in the way.

techcrunch.com Sean O'Kane 2025-12-29 21:41:43

Tesla is launching an even-more-limited version of its early robotaxi service in San Francisco this weekend, according to Business Insider, after an initial rollout began last month in Austin, Texas. The company plans to send invites to Tesla owners to test the service, according to the report. Depending on how and if Tesla proceeds, its actions could violate state regulations — and even if there’s a human safety driver sitting behind the wheel while its vehicles operate autonomously.

Tesla Readies a Taxi Service in San Francisco—but Not With Robotaxis

wired.com Aarian Marshall 2025-12-30 06:26:14

Tesla has publicly staked its future on its robotaxis. Now the company is planning to launch a public car service in the San Francisco Bay Area. Tesla is calling it a “robotaxi” service, but legally, this one will have to use cars with human drivers. The plan appears to put the electric carmaker in murky legal waters in a US state with the country's most tightly regulated autonomous vehicle industry—and where Tesla is already being sued for misleading language around its driver assistance tech.

Going chain-free with the Priority Gemini gravel bike

In combining a belt drive with a gravel bike, Priority Bicycles has put a smart idea into action with the Priority Gemini. The execution is mostly there, although the Gemini is perhaps best described as a fantastic commuter bike with a solid gravel upside—as long as the road isn't too rough. The Priority Gemini comes in both aluminum and titanium frames. I tested the $3,499 aluminum model; the titanium version retails for $5,499.

Earth’s Unusual Rapid Spin Could Prompt First-Ever ‘Negative Leap Second’

The Earth has been spinning unusually fast recently. Last year on July 4, our planet set a record by completing a full spin 1.66 milliseconds (0.00166 seconds) faster than usual, according to timeanddate.com. One year later, on July 10, 2025, Earth completed a daily rotation that scientists estimate was 1.36 milliseconds faster than usual, giving us another particularly short day.
