The Morning After: DJI’s tiny Mic 3 can record four subjects at once

engadget.com Unknown 2025-10-23 07:19:20

It was a quiet Labor Day weekend for tech, but the Engadget team has kept busy testing out new gear from the likes of DJI, Sony and Bose. I want to kick things off with the new flagship DJI Mic 3. The wireless mics have a wholesale design change from the Mic 2, plus many improvements in sound quality, noise reduction and the number of subjects you can record at once — though there is one downgrade compared to the last model. I’ve had one for over a week, so I’ll share some impressions as well.

The first inkjet printer was a medical device

news.ycombinator.com Allison Marsh 2025-10-21 23:08:07

Millions of people worldwide have reason to be thankful that Swedish engineer Rune Elmqvist decided not to practice medicine. Although qualified as a doctor, he chose to invent medical equipment instead. In 1949, while working at Elema-Schonander (later Siemens-Elema), in Stockholm, he applied for a patent for the Mingograph, the first inkjet printer. Its movable nozzle deposited an electrostatically controlled jet of ink droplets on a spool of paper. Rune Elmqvist qualified to be a physician,

Meet the Guys Betting Big on AI Gambling Agents

When Carson Szeder turned five dollars into more than a thousand by betting on an NFL game last year, he knew he was onto something major. “Definitely my biggest win,” he says. He hadn’t scored because he was especially deft at football analytics—or because he was particularly lucky. Instead, he says he used an AI program to help him decide how to gamble. Since a federal ban on sports betting was struck down in the United States seven years ago, gambling on the internet has exploded in populari

India’s Offgrid raises $15M to make lithium optional for battery storage

techcrunch.com Jagmeet Singh 2025-10-23 06:30:00

Lithium has become the default choice for battery-powered systems, but its limitations — from volatile supply chains to short lifespans — are becoming increasingly difficult to ignore. Offgrid Energy Labs, a deep-tech startup based in India, wants to make lithium less central, especially when it comes to battery storage. The seven-year-old startup, incubated at IIT Kanpur, has developed a proprietary zinc-bromine-based battery system as an alternative to lithium-ion technology. Called ZincGel,

Yet only 16% of digital transformations succeed, and that’s only 4–11% in traditional industries. The main barriers? Weak leadership commitment, a rigid culture, and a lack of digital talent.

How can two countries at war with each other also be trading goods? Examples of this abound, actually. Britain also traded with its enemies for almost all of World War I.
