Hadlee Simons / Android Authority TL;DR A truck carrying 12,000 Galaxy phones, including 5,000 Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Z Flip 7 models, was stolen in London. The shipment was apparently worth almost $10 million, but it was insured. This also comes a few days after Samsung confirmed that its new phones broke pre-order records for Galaxy foldables. The Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Z Flip 7 seem more popular than previous Galaxy foldables. Now, it looks like these Samsung phones may have been popular enough

The First Lunar Road Trip

news.ycombinator.com Molly Glick 2026-01-05 08:59:49

Today in 1971, David Scott and James Irwin went for a drive—but this was no joyride. Scott and Irwin, NASA astronauts on the Apollo 15 moon mission, became the first people to burn rubber on the moon’s surface. The battery-powered Lunar Roving Vehicle, or “moon buggy,” could travel up to a cool 12 miles per hour, and took astronauts on longer journeys than previously possible during brief, cumbrous walks in their bulky suits. The buggy weighed a mere 77 pounds on the moon and could whisk around

A dedicated skin-to-brain circuit for cool sensation in mice

Researchers at the University of Michigan have illuminated a complete sensory pathway showing how the skin communicates the temperature of its surroundings to the brain. This discovery, believed to be the first of its kind, reveals that cool temperatures get their own pathway, indicating that evolution has created different circuits for hot and cold temperatures. This creates an elegant solution for ensuring precise thermal perception and appropriate behavioral responses to environmental change

How Python grew from a language to a community

news.ycombinator.com David Cassel 2026-01-08 02:38:53

When it first launched in 1991, Python “wasn’t lucrative,” remembers long-time Python community organizer Paul Everitt (now a Python and web developer advocate at JetBrains). “But we believed in it. The passion was there — we were doing good in the world.” Yet surprisingly, Python traveled a bumpy early road on its way to becoming the world’s #1 most popular programming language, safely ensconced in the nonprofit Python Software Foundation that would help it grow through the years.

The Subway Game Copyright © 1980, Peter R. Samson (to home page) The Subway Game was a diversion that developed out of the frequent visits to New York by myself and various friends at M.I.T. In its basic form it requires two participants: an innocent victim, called the Contestant; and a more knowledgeable companion, called the Monitor. With some allowances, the game can be viewed as a simulation of the following scenario. A stranger to New York is going to visit some friends there. He gets a

The Trump administration’s cuts to the National Park Service’s budget and staffing have raised concerns among park advocates and the public that the administration is aiming to further privatize the national parks. The nation has a long history of similar efforts, including a wildly unpopular 1980 attempt by Reagan administration Interior Secretary James Watt to promote development and expand private concessions in the parks.
