Holding the Galaxy Z Fold 7, I have to remind myself this is not just any ordinary phone. The wildly thin design and wider cover screen makes this generation of Samsung's foldable feel incredibly normal, at least when it's closed. When it's unfolded, it's a whole different story. I got to check out the Z Fold 7 at Samsung's Unpacked event in New York last week, along with the Z Flip 7 and Z Flip 7 FE.

Signs of autism could be encoded in the way you walk

news.ycombinator.com The Conversation 2026-01-18 02:43:35

Autism is a neurodevelopmental condition that affects how people's brains develop and function, impacting behaviour, communication and socialising. It can also involve differences in the way you move and walk – known as your gait. Having an "odd gait" is now listed in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders as a supporting diagnostic feature of autism. What does this look like? The most noticeable gait differences among autistic people are: toe-walking, walking on the balls

I was instantly hooked and I've since watched the film countless times, including on a 2013 trip to see it in 3D on the big screen at my AMC theater.

Tesla's change in bylaws to limit shareholder lawsuits slammed by New York state officials

cnbc.com Lora Kolodny 2026-01-19 08:33:36

In May, Tesla changed its corporate bylaws in a way that would require investors to own 3% of the stock, today worth about $30 billion, in order to file a derivative lawsuit against the company for breach of fiduciary duties. Authorities in New York State are now asking Tesla to delete the bylaw entirely. Overseers of the New York State Common Retirement Fund, which owns about 0.1% of Tesla's shares, submitted a formal proxy proposal and letter to the company on July 11, and shared it with CNBC

Zelda’s new live-action stars could be around for a long time

theverge.com Jay Peters 2026-01-19 08:30:50

Nintendo just announced the two leads of its live-action Legend of Zelda film, and unlike the celebrity-packed Mario movie cast, Zelda will star two young, lesser-known actors: Bo Bragason as Zelda and Benjamin Evan Ainsworth as Link. You may not have heard of them, but there’s a good chance they’re going to be a part of the franchise for a while. Choosing stars who are in their teens (Ainsworth) and early 20s (Bragason) makes a lot of sense. In the games, even the “older” Links and Zeldas are
