Lenovo's ThinkBook VertiFlex Concept Laptop Has a Swiveling Screen

wired.com Julian Chokkattu 2025-10-26 17:00:00

Lenovo isn't shy about trying new things. Last year, the PC maker teased a concept laptop with a transparent screen. Earlier this year, the ThinkBook Flip concept employed a flexible OLED display that folded over the top of the laptop lid, ready to flip up whenever you needed the extra screen space. At CES 2025, we saw a ThinkBook with a rollable OLED screen that expanded upward automatically at the touch of a button—this one is a real product you can actually buy. Get ready for another whacky

CarPlay in iOS 26 enables ‘video in the car’, but there’s a catch

Apple is making a major U-turn with CarPlay after a decade of not allowing video playback. Starting with iOS 26, Apple will allow apps to display video through the CarPlay screen while parked. Support, however, is a big question mark for now. The new capability falls under the name ‘video in the car’ and is mentioned on Apple’s developer website for CarPlay: AirPlay video in the car enables people to watch their favorite videos from iPhone right on their CarPlay display when they aren’t drivi

Learn how to implement user-friendly, type-safe error handling in Swift 6 with structured diagnostics and a hierarchical error model. Swift 6 brings an exciting new feature to the language: typed throws. This change makes error handling in Swift much more type-safe, allowing us to define exactly what kinds of errors a function can throw. It’s a small change on the surface, but it opens the door to writing cleaner, more reliable code. Now, you might be wondering — how do we actually use this in

A second lawsuit filed by an artificial intelligence company alleging a former employee stole trade secrets has been filed in California, just days after Elon Musk’s xAI alleged it had recently experienced corporate espionage.

Catchy songs have been around as long as there's been music, but what makes a song stick in our minds is still a mystery. I recently chaperoned the all-night graduation party at my daughter's high school. After hanging out at an all-games-and-rides-free arcade until 2 a.m., we took the graduates on chartered buses to a private all-ages nightclub in downtown Seattle.

Wednesday’s discovery of three mis-issued TLS certificates for Cloudflare’s 1.1.1.1 encrypted DNS lookup service generated intense interest and concern among Internet security practitioners. The revelation raised the possibility that an unknown entity had obtained the cryptographic equivalent of a skeleton key that could be used to surreptitiously decrypt millions of users’ DNS queries that were encrypted through DNS over TLS or DNS over HTTPS.

Who Owns ‘Telepathy’?

gizmodo.com Lucas Ropek 2025-10-27 04:10:12

Elon Musk’s neural implant startup Neuralink has been trying to trademark two product names: Telepathy and Telekinesis. Musk has previously claimed that his company will be able to give people “superpowers,” so the desire to take ownership over these special abilities makes sense. Unfortunately for Neuralink, patent applications for Telepathy and Telekinesis have already been filed by a different business.

Mangrove Restoration Frustration (2021)

news.ycombinator.com Katarina Zimmer 2025-10-23 15:13:14

If any single event was a watershed for conservation of the world's mangrove forests, it was the Indian Ocean tsunami of 2004. The day after Christmas that year, a magnitude 9.1 earthquake thundered along a fault line on the ocean floor with a force that sent waves — some a hundred feet high — surging toward the densely populated coasts encircling the Indian Ocean. The disaster took more than 225,000 lives. In the aftermath of the tsunami, some scientists reported that settlements behind swampy

TED leader’s $300M ‘valley of death’ fund might be just what later-stage climate tech needs

Like many startups, climate tech companies often face a “valley of death” that lies between early stage funding and growth capital that helps proven technologies reach commercial scale. But because climate tech startups are often hardware focused — physical problems tend to require physical solutions, after all — this valley of death tends to be a lot wider. Financing a first-of-a-kind power plant or factory can cost tens or hundreds of millions of dollars. Now, a new fund hopes to bridge this
