Philips Hue confirms upcoming US price hikes are due to Trump tariffs

techspot.com Rob Thubron 2026-03-01 21:27:00

A hot potato: A lot of companies try to avoid blaming Trump's tariffs for any price increases, but not Philips Hue. It has notified customers of a price hike starting on July that is a direct result of the new import duties, and the products might become even more expensive in the future. Parent company Signify told hueblog.com that its Philips Hue portfolio in the US will experience price hikes on July 1 as a "direct result of the tariffs." This might not be the only increase.

news.ycombinator.com Jinkyong Choi 2026-03-01 20:10:21

Sociologists have shown that “third places” such as neighborhood cafés help people maintain and use their network ties. Do they help local entrepreneurs, for whom networks are important? We examine whether the introduction of Starbucks cafés into U.S. neighborhoods with no coffee shops increased entrepreneurship. When compared to census tracts that were scheduled to receive a Starbucks but did not get one, tracts that received a Starbucks saw an increase in the number of startups of 9.1% to 18%

When it comes to robotics, nobody's doing it quite like China. Despite not truly industrializing until the 1950s — some 75 years after the United States — the nation has surged to the global forefront of robotics development. Between 2022 and 2023, China installed over half of all global robotics installed throughout the globe, scoring the second-highest annual robot deployment ever recorded — a close runner up to its own previous record, which it set between 2021 and 2022.
