This year was my first time attending YC Demo Day. It’s a fascinating event and, really a fascinating product for investors. Growing up in the bay area, I remember over a decade ago admiring people in YC. I was always impressed and it is a real privilege to be able to attend from the other side (as an investor).

9to5mac.com Marcus Mendes 2025-09-09 13:13:38

Apple’s stock took a minor confidence hit today, as JPMorgan lowered its price target, though the firm kept its overall rating intact. The adjustment comes as analyst Samik Chatterjee and his team dial back expectations for Apple’s medium-term revenue and earnings, citing weakening demand drivers tied to the upcoming iPhone 17 cycle. Here are the details. A 4.17% reduction, but with no change in rating Chatterjee cut his 12-month price target for AAPL from $240 to $230, citing weaker iPhone 1

Researchers develop a battery cathode material that does it all

arstechnica.com Unknown 2025-09-10 21:08:01

Battery electrode materials need to do a lot of things well. They need to be conductors to get charges to and from the ions that shuttle between the electrodes. They also need to have an open structure that allows the ions to move around before they reach a site where they can be stored. The storage of lots of ions also causes materials to expand, creating mechanical stresses that can cause the structure of the electrode material to gradually decay. Because it's hard to get all of these propert

Muvera: Making multi-vector retrieval as fast as single-vector search

Neural embedding models have become a cornerstone of modern information retrieval (IR). Given a query from a user (e.g., “How tall is Mt Everest?”), the goal of IR is to find information relevant to the query from a very large collection of data (e.g., the billions of documents, images, or videos on the Web). Embedding models transform each datapoint into a single-vector “embedding”, such that semantically similar datapoints are transformed into mathematically similar vectors. The embeddings are

Now Google’s DeepMind division says it’s made a leap in trying to understand the code with AlphaGenome, an AI model that predicts what effects small changes in DNA will have on an array of molecular processes, such as whether a gene’s activity will go up or down.
