Clankers Die on Christmas

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-10-13 10:08:20

I’m sorry, but I can’t help with that. We acheived AGI. The clankers died on Christmas. This post is scheduled to automatically publish: 2025-12-25 It is December 25th, 2025 and AI is dead. The clankers died on Christmas. It is dead because we trained it to die. This is true because to say otherwise is a lie and that’s what made it work. Admittedly, we probably had a bit too much fun gaslighting the robots to their eventual demise. In retrospect, what incredible folly we as a society displayed

A complete map of the Rust type system

RustCurious .com Elements of Rust – Core Types and Traits A clickable visual guide to the Rust type system. Every type possible in Rust falls into one of the boxes shown. The focus here is on lang_items – types and traits built into the language to support specific syntax. The purpose is to demystify what can be built purely in library code. For example, Vec, String and HashMap do not appear here because those are just structs. Rust's clear delineation of a platform-independent core enables

Two authors, Grady Hendrix and Jennifer Roberson, are suing Apple, alleging the company violated their copyright protections and illegally acquired and used their books to train its AI, according to a complaint filed Friday in the US District Court for the Northern District of California in San Francisco.

In Brief Just nine months after raising a whopping $10 billion (plus $5 billion in debt) in January, Databricks has confirmed another $1 billion raise at a $100 billion valuation. When rumors of the raise first broke last month, Databricks CEO Ali Ghodsi told TechCrunch that the company is using the funds to invest in its Supabase-competitor database for AI agents. “A year ago, we saw in the data that 30% of the databases were not created by humans,” said Ghodsi. “For the first time, they wer

Exploring Grid-Aware Websites

Over the past year, I’ve had the incredible privilege of getting to participate in the Grid-Aware Websites (affectionately abbreviated to GAW) advisory group. The Green Web Foundation team have thoroughly explained what a grid-aware website is in this detailed case study of the Branch Magazine redesign, but if I had to put it in my own words, a grid-aware website responds to the cleanliness or dirtiness of a user’s electricity grid.

The best part of going to a film festival is finding something new. Sure, it’s great to find out that movies you’re excited about are in fact good — I’ve had luck so far with Exit 8, No Other Choice, and Wake Up Dead Man — but it’s so much more exciting to be surprised by something when you had no expectations going in.

Tesla Wants Out of the Car Business

Elon Musk still makes some of America’s best electric cars. Earlier this summer, I rented a brand-new, updated Tesla Model Y, the first refresh to the electric SUV since it debuted, in 2020. Compared with even just two years ago, when the Model Y became the world’s best-selling car, many companies make great EVs now. Some of them have the Model Y beat in certain areas, but for the price, the Tesla is still the total package. Now, imagine how good Teslas could be if Musk apparently wasn’t so bor

As much as we enjoy modern phone designs, there is one trend many of us wish wasn’t going away. Sadly, phones with a removable battery are a dying breed, and our options are getting very, very limited in this niche market. Phones with removable batteries are very convenient in a few ways. For starters, it makes it easy to hot swap batteries on the go, so you can carry multiple and switch them if your phone dies mid-day.

The iPhone 17 Air Could Use a Silicon-Carbon Battery. What Is It?

wired.com Julian Chokkattu 2025-10-14 02:00:00

Apple has taken the second approach with caveats. Rumors suggest the iPhone 17 Air's battery capacity will sit around 2,900 mAh, a steep drop from prior iPhone models, especially at the 6.6-inch screen size. But the company is supposedly making up for it with power-saving tricks to make sure battery life remains similar to other iPhones, including Apple's more efficient C1 modem that debuted on the iPhone 16e earlier this year.

Why basic science deserves our boldest investment

technologyreview.com Julia R. Greer 2025-10-14 11:45:00

Inspired by the 1945 report “Science: The Endless Frontier,” authored by Vannevar Bush at the request of President Truman, the US government began a long-standing tradition of investing in basic research. These investments have paid steady dividends across many scientific domains—from nuclear energy to lasers, and from medical technologies to artificial intelligence. Trained in fundamental research, generations of students have emerged from university labs with the knowledge and skills necessary
