You’re Gonna Be Waiting a While for the Return of ‘Last of Us’ or ‘Penguin’

gizmodo.com Cheryl Eddy 2025-08-11 03:45:06

Genre shows made a huge impact on today’s Emmy announcements, with Apple TV+’s Severance leading the charge for most-nominated title overall with recognition in 27 categories. But HBO’s The Penguin wasn’t far behind with 24, and though you might expect that to mean the studio would be actively working on more episodes—well, it’s complicated, given the show’s positioning within Matt Reeves‘ The Batman universe. Speaking to Variety, HBO and HBO Max CEO and content chairman Casey Bloys—who would s

cnbc.com Sean Conlon 2025-08-11 07:04:52

The price of bitcoin was last down 2.8% at $116,516.00, according to Coin Metrics. That marks a pullback from the day's high of $120,481.86. Bitcoin fell below the $117,000 level on Tuesday after cryptocurrency-related bills were blocked in the House of Representatives. The drop comes on the heels of multiple crypto-related bills failing to overcome a procedural hurdle in the House, with 13 Republicans voting with Democrats to block the motion in a 196-223 vote.

Most (ly Dead) Influential Programming Languages (2020)

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-08-08 12:50:56

The other day I read 20 most significant programming languages in history, a “preposterous table I just made up.” He certainly got preposterous right: he lists Go as “most significant” but not ALGOL, Smalltalk, or ML. He also leaves off Pascal because it’s “mostly dead”. Preposterous! That defeats the whole point of what “significant in history” means. So let’s talk about some “mostly dead” languages and why they matter so much. Disclaimer: Yeah not all of these are dead and not all of these a

See How ‘M3GAN 2.0’ Built Itself a Bigger, Better M3GAN

For better or worse, M3GAN’s sophomore outing in M3GAN 2.0 brought with it much more action-packed mania than the killer-doll horrors of the original. That, and of course the awkward inconvenience of M3GAN’s body being destroyed in the climax of the first film, meant her return for round two needed a mechanical do-over… including a few upgrades for good measure. Now that M3GAN 2.0 is heading home digitally today, you can see just how the team behind the movie made those upgrades to make the all
