Chime almost died in 2016, turned down by 100 VCs. Today it IPO’d at $14.5B.

techcrunch.com Julie Bort 2025-09-22 04:23:17

One of the year’s most anticipated IPOs took place on Thursday when neobank Chime raised $864 million in its IPO, pricing its shares at $27, above its previously announced range of $24 to $26. That gave it a starting market cap of about $9.8 billion. While some would point out that this is far below its last private valuation of $25 billion, according to PitchBook’s estimates, shares opened at $42, putting it at $14.5 by midday in heavy trading, according to Yahoo Finance.

TL;DR Razer launched three telescopic mobile controllers today: the Kishi V3, Kishi V3 Pro, and Kishi V3 Pro XL. The Kishi V3 Pro is the follow-up to 2024’s Kishi Ultra, while the Kishi V3 removes some premium features to bring the price down.

Best Merino Wool T-Shirts (2025), Tried On and Tested

wired.com Scott Gilbertson 2025-09-22 10:02:00

We are talking about $80 (or more) T-shirts here, so this is valid question. I think merino T-shirts are worth the investment. They offer considerable benefits over cotton and other natural fibers, as well as synthetics. Merino offers great temperature regulation, excellent moisture wicking, and they don't smell, which means you can wear them more and don't need as many of them. Three merino T-shirts in your wardrobe will last you as many days as 10 cotton shirts, so from a financial angle it's

Razer’s new mobile controller can stretch wide enough to fit an iPad Pro

theverge.com Cameron Faulkner 2025-09-22 12:00:00

The iPad Mini is no longer the biggest tablet you can fit into a mobile gaming controller (without breaking it a little). Razer’s new $199.99 Kishi V3 Pro XL can accommodate a 13-inch iPad or Android tablet that uses a USB-C connector. It’s like Razer’s 2013 Edge, in spirit at least. My 10.9-inch iPad Air is a cinch to fit inside of the Kishi V3 Pro XL, and having even this large of a screen to play on is a treat. How could it not be? Not only that, its speakers sound fantastic for playing game

In recent months, a new class of agents has arrived on the scene: ones built using large language models. Any action that can be captured by text—from playing a video game using written commands to running a social media account—is potentially within the purview of this type of system. LLM agents don’t have much of a track record yet, but to hear CEOs tell it, they will transform the economy—and soon. Despite that, like chatbot LLMs, agents can be chaotic and unpredictable.
