You can save a lot of money with a virtual private network (VPN), whether you're changing virtual locations to get more content out of one streaming service or searching around the world for discounts in online stores. That said, while it's worth investing some cash in a VPN, you never want to pay too much when the goal is to save money. VPN providers frequently sharp massive discounts to anyone willing to sign up for one or two years at a time. This is a win-in — they boost their subscriber nu

The US Education Department, which the Trump administration is actively attempting to dismantle, has released the latest math and reading test scores for American high-school seniors — and they're an absolute disaster. As the Wall Street Journal reports, the scores have hit an all-time low, even by America's historically underwhelming standards.

If voice translation is halfway between a helpful feature and a gimmick, then Daily Hub leans even further into gimmick territory.

It does the first part of that job just fine; it’s maybe a more longwinded version of Google’s At a Glance widget, which gives you a heads up on the weather and upcoming

Programmers Using AI Create Way More Glaring Security Issues, Data Shows

futurism.com Unknown 2025-10-11 09:09:57

Artificial intelligence has notorious problems with accuracy — so maybe it's not surprising that using it as a coding assistant creates more security problems, too. As a security firm called Apiiro found in new research, developers who used AI produce ten times more security problems than their counterparts who don't use the technology. Looking at code from thousands of developers and tens of thousand repositories, Apiiro found that AI-assisted devs were indeed producing three or four times mo

In five years, you won’t be able to spell IT without AI, Gartner predicted today. VP analysts Alicia Mullery and Daryl Plummer delivered the sentiment at their keynote address at Gartner’s IT Symposium in Gold Coast, Australia, as reported by The Register. Gartner believes that by 2030, all work performed by an IT department will involve the use of AI. That’s a progression from the 81 percent of IT work that’s done today without any use of AI, per Mullery. By 2030, not only will all IT work re

Medieval fable attributed to Aesop Gustave Doré's illustration of La Fontaine's fable, c. 1868 Belling the Cat is a fable also known under the titles The Bell and the Cat and The Mice in Council. In the story, a group of mice agree to attach a bell to a cat's neck to warn of its approach in the future, but they fail to find a volunteer to perform the job. The term has become an idiom describing a group of persons, each agreeing to perform an impossibly difficult task under the misapprehension

If Tesla was hoping that decent sales in China might boost the company's fast-diminishing profits, it was a forlorn hope. For the second month in a row, the automaker has experienced a year-on-year decrease in sales in China. According to Reuters, Tesla's sales dropped by 4 percent in August compared to the same month in 2024. That's not quite as dire as July, where it saw Chinese sales decrease by 8.4 percent.
