Tree Borrows

The Rust programming language is well known for its ownership-based type system, which offers strong guarantees like memory safety and data race freedom. However, Rust also provides unsafe escape hatches, for which safety is not guaranteed automatically and must instead be manually upheld by the programmer. This creates a tension. On the one hand, compilers would like to exploit the strong guarantees of the type system—particularly those pertaining to aliasing of pointers—in order to unlock powe

How to Watch Samsung Unpacked for the Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Z Flip 7 Debut

After weeks of leaks and online teases, Samsung's Unpacked event is happening today.

6 Best Prime Day Mattress Deals Plus Top Bedding Sales (2025)

As you may have noticed, mattress shopping holidays aren't limited to just Memorial Day, Labor Day, or even the Fourth of July anymore. Now that Amazon Prime Day is nearly a week long, it's become something of a holiday in and of itself, so it makes sense that Amazon would start offering mattresses too. We've listed our favorite Prime Day mattress deals that someone on our staff has tested themselves and personally vouches for. If you want to know more about our favorite mattresses, we have you

Best 10 Prime Day Kitchen Deals (2025): Breville, Ooni, Oxo

Amazon Prime Day sales are timed for early summer—the time of enjoyment. The time you spoil yourself. Most of the best Prime Day kitchen deals I recommend here are the ones that WIRED staff members use in their own kitchens, and love in their own lives. The Breville Barista Express ($550), on sale for $200 off, is also the one that has served WIRED reviewer Julian Chokkattu ably for more than five years. Our favorite air fryer, the Typhur Dome 2 ($285) is the basket air fryer I've kept proudly o

Samsung Galaxy Unpacked preview: Massive leaks suggest we can expect Z Fold 7, Z Flip 7 and more

Samsung has announced that its next Galaxy Unpacked event will be taking place on July 9 at 10AM ET. This is the third major Unpacked event of the year, following launches of the Galaxy S25 series in January and, more recently, a virtual unveiling of the Galaxy S25 Edge. This time, if previous years are any indication, the company should be showing off new foldables and wearables. A lot of it may be business as usual, but the company has hinted that some possibly exciting new additions are in t

Red Hat just expanded free access to RHEL for business developers

Govee LED Strip Backlight With Dual Cameras Listed as a 4.5-Star Best-Selling Prime Day Deal

Watching a movie or a live sports event on a big screen in a darkened room was peak viewing for one reason — there wasn’t an alternative to heighten the experience. Now that LED lighting technology has dramatically shrunk in size and cost, you can transform any room into a fun, immersive multimedia lair with the Govee Envisual LED Backlight T2, an app-controlled two-camera setup with LED strip lights for big screens between 55 and 65 inches. It’s one of our favorite Amazon Prime Day deals at jus

Poll: Does your Pixel phone also miss alarms?

Hadlee Simons / Android Authority TL;DR Pixel phone users are experiencing a recurring bug in which their alarms fail to go off for an “unknown reason.” This alarm bug has been reported on Pixel phones since at least 2021, and Google has reportedly been unable to replicate or fix it. As a workaround, users can use alternative alarm apps, or even physical alarm clocks. Over the weekend, frustrated users took to Reddit to complain about their Pixel phones’ missing alarms.

The best gadgets for students under $50

There are rarely enough power outlets to charge all of the things a student needs when they need it most. If the student in your life likes to work from the library or a coffee shop often, there’s a good chance they’ve had to do the charging dance, choosing which device is most crucial to them at the moment and giving it the prime spot on the wall. A surge protector power strip like this one from Anker can eliminate that problem by giving them eight AC outlets to use simultaneously, along with t

Using MPC for Anonymous and Private DNA Analysis

Earlier this year, Monadic DNA kicked off an experiment to demonstrate that people can access and analyze their genetic data with anonymity and privacy. Monadic DNA collected saliva samples from thirty encrypted genomics pioneers at an event in Denver. These participants later used a Web app to claim their genotyping results using a unique kit ID and a self-selected PIN. The app guided users through uploading their data to encrypted storage powered by Nillion’s multi-party compute (MPC) techno

Phrase origin: Why do we "call" functions?

On StackExchange, someone asks why programmers talk about “calling” a function. Several possible allusions spring to mind: Calling a function is like calling on a friend — we go, we stay a while, we come back. Calling a function is like calling for a servant — a summoning to perform a task. Calling a function is like making a phone call — we ask a question and get an answer from outside ourselves. The true answer seems to be the middle one — “calling” as in “calling up, summoning” — but indi

Orb Is the Internet Speed Test Your Wi-Fi Has Been Waiting For

Internet speed tests aren't just for people who obsess over their internet connection. When my friends or parents are experiencing an inevitable home internet slowdown, my first recommendation is always to start with a speed test. In fact, I’ve tested and used dozens of internet speed tests -- the market is pretty saturated with them. Ideally, the best internet speed test is one that diagnoses your bandwidth blues as simply as possible -- no ads, no extra features you can’t make sense of, and no

Critical CitrixBleed 2 vulnerability has been under active exploit for weeks

A critical vulnerability allowing hackers to bypass multifactor authentication in network management devices made by Citrix has been actively exploited for more than a month, researchers said. The finding is at odds with advisories from the vendor saying there is no evidence of in-the-wild exploitation. Tracked as CVE-2025-5777, the vulnerability shares similarities with CVE-2023-4966, a security flaw nicknamed CitrixBleed, which led to the compromise of 20,000 Citrix devices two years ago. The

At $315 off, the Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge is a different prospect

Ryan Haines / Android Authority We had our reservations about the Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge after its recent launch, but much of our scrutiny related to the $1,100 price tag. We felt it should have been marginally cheaper, but it’s a lot cheaper in the Prime Day sale. The Galaxy S25 Edge is currently available at just $784.99, a substantial 27% discount off the recommended retail price.

What to expect from Samsung Unpacked today: Galaxy Z Fold 7, Watch 8 Classic, tri-foldable, more

Kerry Wan/ZDNET Three things are certain when July comes along: backyard barbecues, fireworks past midnight, and Samsung Unpacked. Just last month, Samsung confirmed that the next Unpacked event will take place today, Wednesday, July 9, in Brooklyn, New York. This follows the host cities of Paris, France, and Seoul, South Korea, over the past two years -- with the company suggesting that it's chosen Brooklyn for its "bold ideas, creativity, and culture."

Astro is a return to the fundamentals of the web

After migrating several projects from WordPress to Astro, I've become a massive fan of this framework. What is Astro? Astro is a web framework that came out in 2021 and immediately felt different. While most JavaScript frameworks started with building complex applications and then tried to adapt to simpler sites, Astro went the opposite direction. It was built from day one for content-focused websites. The philosophy is refreshingly simple. Astro believes in being content-driven and server-fi

You’ll Regret It If You Already Have One: Kindle Paperwhite Hits a New Record Low This Prime Day

Every summer season, Kindle sales are the highest because people organize vacations and do not want to lug around stacks of books. The Kindle is the perfect travel companion: it occupies virtually no space, is as close to reading a real book as can be, and can hold thousands of books. For Prime Day, Amazon is providing Prime members with an unbeatable value on the Kindle Paperwhite Signature Edition (32GB), now priced at a new all-time low. It is currently marked down to $149, which is a massiv

Prime Day Makes the HP 14″ Chromebook the Cheapest Laptop at 50% Off, Even Though It’s the Latest Model

Ars staffers share some of their favorite unexpected 3D prints

Part of the fun of 3D printing is discovering just how many possibilities there are for different things to print. Obviously, they're fun for printing toys or decorations that you couldn't or wouldn't buy yourself, but they're also powerful problem-solving tools. Once you've solved a few problems with 3D printed parts, you start looking around for other minor inconveniences or quality-of-life upgrades that you could solve—and the breadth and depth of the 3D printing community means that you can
