Swift-erlang-actor-system

I'm excited to share a new actor system we've been building for Swift's distributed actors: swift-erlang-actor-system. This actor system enables Swift programs to join a distributed Erlang cluster. Here's an example of a simple chat program using the actor system: Demo Video Erlang (and other languages that run on its VM) can connect multiple runtime systems together with distributed Erlang. Each runtime is referred to as a "node". Erlang also supports "C nodes", which allow a program other

OSS Rebuild: open-source, rebuilt to last

Today we're excited to announce OSS Rebuild, a new project to strengthen trust in open source package ecosystems by reproducing upstream artifacts.

Fighting forever chemicals and startup fatigue

The MEDC also helped us early on create a model in Excel for tracking business financing and forecasting, forecasting our future financial needs, so that we could be proactive instead of reactive to financial limitations. We knew it wasn't going to be inexpensive to design and build a piece of equipment that's the size of two very large refrigerators that had never been built before. That type of financial-forward modeling helped us figure out when we would need to start fundraising and taking i

The AirPods Pro 2 are still on sale - here's why they're legit in 2025

Jada Jones/ZDNET During Apple's September hardware event last year, the company announced the iPhone 16 lineup, new AirPods, and an upgraded Apple Watch. I was most happy to see the AirPods 4 model, which introduced noise cancellation to the lineup for the first time and upgraded software features -- but I was secretly hoping for the AirPods Pro 3. Also: I ditched my Bluetooth speakers for this slick turntable - and it's more practical than I thought Unfortunately, a new AirPods Pro model did

We have made the decision to not continue paying for BBB accreditation

We have made the conscious choice not to continue paying for accreditation from the Better Business Bureau (BBB). We realize that this may raise questions among our customers, and we want to explain why we made this decision. For years, people have been told to look for BBB accredited businesses, and that it somehow reflects whether a business is on the up and up. What most don’t realize is that businesses PAY to be accredited with the BBB. You do not EARN an accreditation- you buy it. A few m

What happens when an octopus engages with art?

CNN — When the Japanese artist Shimabuku was 31 years old, he took an octopus on a tour of Tokyo. After catching it from the sea with the help of a local fisherman in Akashi, a coastal city over 3 hours away from the Japanese capital by train, he transported the live creature in a temperature-controlled tank of seawater to show it the sights of Tokyo before returning it safely to its home the same day. “I thought it would be nice,” the artist, now 56, said about the experience, over a video ca

Economist Warns the AI Bubble Is Worse Than Immediately Before the Dot-Com Implosion

For years now, certain experts have warned that the AI industry is a massive bubble waiting to burst. The enormous hype driving a market frenzy, they say, could lead to a collapse if it's exposed to be built on widespread overpromising. Most recently, Apollog Global Management chief economist Torsten Slok warned that the current AI bubble is starting to look even worse than the market conditions leading up to the dot-com implosion of the late 1990s. "The difference between the IT bubble in the

Amazon and the “Profitless Business Model” Fallacy

[DISCLOSURE: As always when I write about Amazon, I'll note I worked there from 1997-2004 and that I still own some shares in the company. I still have many friends who work there, though I have no more idea what Amazon is working on now than any of you in the public.] With every quarterly earnings call, my Twitter feed lights up with jokes about how Amazon continues to grow its revenue and make no profits and how trusting investors continue to rewards the company for it. The apotheosis of that

Scarcity, Inventory, and Inequity: A Deep Dive into Airline Fare Buckets

Airline pricing may seem mystifying, but behind every airfare is a complex system of fare buckets and inventory controls. Airlines don't just sell seats - they manage a dynamic inventory of fares, divided into booking classes (fare buckets) with different prices and rules. For the technically curious, understanding how fare buckets work reveals the "source code" of airline revenue management. This report delves into the hierarchy of booking classes, how airlines update seat availability across r

Galaxy Buds 3 FE leak reveals a surprisingly premium design

Ryan Haines / Android Authority TL;DR A reportedly leaked image shows the Galaxy Buds 3 FE look nearly identical to the Buds 3 Pro The FE model appears to use the Pro’s stemmed design with silicone tips, rather than the open AirPods-style Buds 3. Samsung has yet to confirm specs or a release date, and the leaked image has now been removed from X. Samsung may be working on a more affordable set of Fan Edition wireless earbuds, but you’d be hard-pressed to tell from the design. A newly leaked

What happens when housing prices go down?

There’s a theory about housing that has taken hold with a kind of religious fervor: If you want to make housing more affordable, just build more of it. Supply and demand. Simple economics. This narrative is now dominating housing policy discussion across the political spectrum. Deregulate, upzone, speed up approvals, let the market work. And if you build enough homes, the theory goes, prices will come down. But here’s the question almost no one asks: What happens when prices actually start to

New zero-day bug in Microsoft SharePoint under widespread attack

Microsoft said the bug, known officially as CVE-2025-53771, affects versions

Soundcore Sleep A30: ANC Earbuds for Sleep That Can Save Your Marriage

I absolutely, positively, cannot sleep without ambient noise. I’m not sure when that neurotic prerequisite for sleep took root, but it’s here now, and I regard it as a fact of life. As you might imagine, that quirk is fine when I’m at home since I have plenty of noise machines at my disposal—an air conditioner, a smart speaker, and tons of earbuds—to fill the haunting silence that prevents me from sleep like unresolved vengeance prevents a ghost from passing on. But when I’m not at home, things

The Demise of China’s Hottest Online Shopping Craze

During the height of the pandemic, a unique kind of online shopping became one of the hottest trends in China’s tech industry. Called “community group buying,” it allowed consumers to save money on everything from apples to iPhones by placing bulk orders together with their friends and family. The model, which was kind of like Groupon meets Instacart, proved especially popular for groceries. But now, China's community group-buying platforms are vanishing one by one. Late last month, Meituan, th

Mark Zuckerberg Is Expanding His Secretive Hawaii Compound. Part of It Sits Atop a Burial Ground

As a child, Julian Ako would visit his maternal great-grandfather’s home near Pilaa Beach in Kauai, Hawaii, where he and his family would gather edible fungi that grow on kukui trees and collect seaweed and fish from the reef. For about a decade, that land has belonged to Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg, who is constructing a massive compound at an estimated cost that exceeds $300 million. WIRED can now reveal that Zuckerberg’s property is atop a burial site: Ako’s great-grandmother and her brother we
