Synthesizing Object-Oriented and Functional Design to Promote Re-Use Shriram Krishnamurthi, Matthias Felleisen, Daniel P. Friedman European Conference on Object-Oriented Programming, 1998 Abstract Many problems require recursively specified types of data and a collection of tools that operate on those data. Over time, these problems evolve so that the programmer must extend the toolkit or extend the types and adjust the existing tools accordingly. Ideally, this should be done without modifyi

Hyundai’s out-of-this-world EV concept is a glimpse at the upcoming Ioniq 3

theverge.com Andrew J. Hawkins 2025-10-10 20:34:26

is transportation editor with 10+ years of experience who covers EVs, public transportation, and aviation. His work has appeared in The New York Daily News and City & State. Hyundai is out with a new concept car that previews a smaller EV that could slot below the Ioniq 5. And while the design is pretty bold, and full of what seems to be veiled references to Star Wars, the idea of a smaller (and hopefully less expensive) electric hatchback is surely one of the more grounded ways to approach a d

Signal Secure Backups

In the past, if you broke or lost your phone, your Signal message history was gone. This has been a challenge for people whose most important conversations happen on Signal. Think family photos, sweet messages, important documents, or anything else you don’t want to lose forever. This explains why the most common feature request has been backups; a way for people to get Signal messages back even if their phone is lost or damaged.

Way to Address Product Design Failure

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-10-10 00:59:15

We live in an age of shitty product design and no customer support. Stuff breaks because it's poorly made, and then you have no recourse but to throw it into the trash, because it's unrepairable. If you try to get someone on the line, it's endless sub-menus before you finally get a live person overseas, who struggles with the language and has not been empowered by their bosses to actually solve your problem.

Microsoft now enforces MFA on Azure Portal sign-ins for all tenants

Microsoft says it has been enforcing multifactor authentication (MFA) for Azure Portal sign-ins across all tenants since March 2025. The company's Azure MFA enforcement efforts were announced in May 2024 when Redmond began implementing mandatory MFA for all users signing into Azure to administer resources.

Eero’s Signal is a cellular safety net for your Wi-Fi network

theverge.com Terrence O'Brien 2025-10-15 00:24:09

The new Eero Signal could have saved me a lot of headaches when I was dealing with regular internet outages at my home last year. See, Signal automatically detects when your internet goes down and switches your whole Wi-Fi network over to a cellular connection to minimize disruption. Sure, when I’d suddenly see a “Slack is trying to connect” message, I could pull out my phone and hop on the hotspot, but that only brought my laptop back online.

iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max back design mystery may be solved ahead of Apple event

Earlier this week, we flagged that despite knowing an awful lot about the iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max, there was still a major design mystery going into Apple’s “Awe dropping” event. Now new reporting points to a more dramatic splash in that category. There have been two competing rumors around the design of the iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max backs. Both agree that the camera mound will expand into a full-width camera bar across the top. Where things diverge is the rest of the back: an all-glass cont

The Anatomy of a Mach-O: Structure, Code Signing, and Pac

Table of Contents The Mach Object (Mach-O) is the binary format used on Apple’s operating systems for executables, libraries, and object code. It was created for the Mach kernel (hence the name) and introduced in NeXTSTEP, the predecessor to macOS, as a replacement for the a.out format. Mach-O’s design supports multiple architectures (via universal binaries), and contains metadata via load commands. In this post, we’ll explore Mach-O’s layout and history.
