France's state-owned defense firm Naval Group is investigating a cyberattack after 1TB of allegedly stolen data was leaked on a hacking forum. The company characterized this as a "destabilization attempt" and a "reputational attack," to which it has responded by filing a complaint to protect its client's data.

From Harvard to Half-Life: Gabe Newell reflects on his unconventional path to founding Valve

techspot.com Skye Jacobs 2025-09-01 08:22:00

Why it matters: A week ago, we highlighted the surprising interview Valve co-founder Gabe Newell gave to a little-known YouTube channel, where he revealed his unconventional daily routine and passion for scuba diving. But beyond the lifestyle quirks lies a deeper, more instructive story – how a chance encounter with Steve Ballmer at Microsoft pulled Newell away from Harvard and into a 13-year tenure at the software giant. That decision not only shaped Newell's personal trajectory but also helped

The First Planned Migration of an Entire Country Is Underway

Tuvalu is preparing to carry out the first planned migration of an entire country in response to the effects of climate change. Recent studies project that much of its territory could be submerged in the next 25 years due to rising sea levels, forcing its inhabitants to consider migration as an urgent survival measure. This island nation in Oceania is made up of nine coral islands and atolls inhabited by just over 11,000 people. The country’s average altitude is just 2 meters above sea level, m

wired.com Jake Lahut 2025-09-04 18:00:00

The unholy alliance between Silicon Valley and the Republican Party is no longer new. Between Elon Musk’s descent upon Washington, the number of Big Tech billionaires flying in to kiss President Donald Trump’s ring, and the expansion of the role of companies like Palantir in the US government, former president Joe Biden’s warning about the impending oligarchy has certainly borne out. All of this raises a question: Six months into Trump’s presidency, just how important are Silicon Valley billion

techcrunch.com Tim De Chant 2025-09-08 01:25:00

For every technology, there comes a tipping point where it switches from theory to possibility. Robin Langtry believes that Avalanche Energy has reached that point. Avalanche recently operated its desktop fusion machine for hours on end while maintaining 300,000 volts, a figure the startup predicts will allow it to build a reactor capable of generating more energy than it consumes, the holy grail for any fusion company.
