Product of Additive Inverses By Susam Pal on 29 May 2025 A negative number multiplied by another negative number results in a positive number. Most of us learnt this rule during our primary or secondary school years. 'Negative times negative equals positive' was a phrase drummed into us during mathematics lessons. In this article, we will prove this rule, not just for numbers but for any algebraic structure that, in a general sense, behaves somewhat like numbers. Contents Illustration Let u

Android’s upcoming notification summaries could avoid the pitfalls of Apple Intelligence

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-08-08 13:20:39

Mishaal Rahman / Android Authority TL;DR Google is developing an AI-powered notification summary feature for Android to help manage overwhelming alerts from messaging apps. Unlike Apple’s version, this feature will only summarize “conversation notifications” to improve accuracy and avoid misinterpreting non-message alerts. It will warn users that summaries may contain errors, will only process longer messages, and will likely be exclusive to devices that support Gemini Nano. Notifications ar

Expected to debut in an Android 16 quarterly release, the feature will silence and bundle alerts it identifies as a match into one of four categories. The feature may be a Pixel-exclusive at launch, and users will be able to exempt specific apps, ensuring important alerts are not bundled away. Notific

Jack Dorsey just released a decentralized, peer-to-peer messaging app that functions entirely over Bluetooth networks, as reported by CNBC . It's called Bitchat and doesn't need the internet to work, as there are no central servers.

Mishaal Rahman / Android Authority TL;DR Samsung’s One UI 8 will enhance its Live Notifications feature by adopting Android 16’s new “Live Updates” API for broader third-party app support. This new API allows any app to create live, ongoing notifications, a major improvement from the previous version limited to mostly first-party Samsung apps.

Android 16’s Live Updates won’t work with your favorite music player, and that’s a bummer

Mishaal Rahman / Android Authority TL;DR Android 16 introduces Live Updates, a new feature that elevates ongoing notifications to the status bar, but it excludes media playback notifications. This is because media apps use a dedicated “Media style” template, which is not one of the specific styles that can be promoted to a Live Update. Switching styles would cause media apps to lose key playback controls and features, a trade-off developers are unlikely to make for this new functionality. Li
