Your Pixel’s big Android 16 QPR1 update brings more than just Material 3 Expressive

Mishaal Rahman / Android Authority Google just announced the September 2025 Pixel Drop, bringing a fresh look and new features to the entire Pixel lineup with the Android 16 QPR1 update. While the announcement highlighted major changes like the revamped UI based on Google’s Material 3 Expressive design, it glossed over several other significant additions. For example, the update also introduces a preview of Google’s DeX-like desktop mode, Live Updates, and much more. Here’s a look at every new

Show HN: Entropy-Guided Loop – How to make small models reason

Logprobs Reasoning Loop with Weights & Biases Weave, an observability tool Uncertainty-Aware Generation with OpenAI's Responses API This project demonstrates a novel approach to improving AI model reasoning by leveraging token-level uncertainty metrics (logprobs) to create self-correcting generation loops. We compare this uncertainty-aware approach against traditional reasoning models to test whether explicit uncertainty handling can match or exceed the performance of dedicated reasoning archi

Trump’s New History Exhibit Features Fake Quotes From AI-Generated Founding Fathers

The White House recently commissioned a new history exhibit in Washington, D.C. created by the far-right “education” group PragerU. The exhibit features 82 paintings and 40 AI videos, presenting a rather distorted view of America’s founding. The AI-generated videos even include fake quotes from the founding fathers, including one that seems like a joke. But the folks at PragerU are serious about their mission, even if the intention is to own the libs. What kind of quotes are we talking about?

The 2 Big Reasons People Avoid Meal Kits No Longer Apply

Meal kits have evolved dramatically in the 13 years since Blue Apron launched in the US. Today, nine major meal kit services operate across the country and their convenient dinner packages have become comparatively cheaper and better suited to people with dietary restrictions. Increased competition has brought variety and consumer-friendly makeovers to meal delivery services, but much of the population is still skeptical. In a recent CNET survey of more than 2,600 US adults, most of those who h

Apple has survived Trump's tariffs so far. It might raise iPhone prices anyway

Apple CEO Tim Cook (R) shakes hands with U.S. President Donald Trump during an event in the Oval Office of the White House on August 6, 2025 in Washington, DC. When Tim Cook gifted President Donald Trump a gold and glass plaque last month, the Apple CEO was hailed by Wall Street for his job managing the iPhone-maker's relationship with the White House. Cook, Wall Street commentators said, had largely navigated the threat of tariffs on Apple's business successfully by offering Trump an addition

Investors Cheer As Amazon Cracks Down on Prime Accounts

Amazon.com Inc. is cracking down on shared Prime accounts. The company says it is ending a little-known but long-standing feature of its Prime membership that allowed subscribers to extend free shipping benefits to friends and family outside their homes. The move, announced this week, will shutter the company’s “Invitee Program” on Oct. 1, redirecting members to a stricter household-sharing model known as Amazon Family. What exactly are they ending? For years, the Invitee Program quietly let

Court reinstates fired FTC Democrat, says Trump ignored Supreme Court precedent

A Democrat who was fired from the Federal Trade Commission by President Trump was reinstated to her position yesterday in an appeals court ruling. Trump's firing of Commissioner Rebecca Kelly Slaughter violated Supreme Court precedent, said yesterday's ruling from the US Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit. A District Court judge ruled the same way in July, but Slaughter couldn't get back to work because of an administrative stay that delayed the lower-court ruling from taking

reMarkable announces new Paper Pro Move: a palm-sized paper tablet that’s priced well

Today, reMarkable announced a much smaller version of the reMarkable Paper Pro, dubbed Paper Pro Move. It comes in at a much lower price tag, and still packs all of the beloved features of the larger reMarkable Paper Pro. It’s designed for work on the go, and can easily be slipped in a jacket pocket, bag, or purse. I reviewed the reMarkable Paper Pro earlier this year – and it was an excellent product. The only issue I took with it was the price. Not because I felt that it was overpriced, but b

AirPods Pro 3 are coming, here’s every rumored new feature

It’s expected that H3 will similarly bring ongoing improvements for years to come—plus some new audio capabilities at launch. H2 is the reason AirPods Max

Warp Code: the fastest way from prompt to production

The primary use case here is small edits to agent-generated code – because sometimes a hand-edit is faster than re-prompting; like when you just want to change a variable name, edit a bit of copy, or rewrite a small function. We also shipped a simple file tree for browsing, opening, and adding files as context, as well as file opening and creation using the file palette (cmd-O). We aren’t trying to rebuild an IDE here – we think the ADE approach is where things are headed. But, we do see the v

Abstract Machine Models Also: what Rust got particularly right

Ever since 2010, I have studied the “meta” of software, by studying (and thinking about) the continued dialogue between programming language designers, computer designers, and programmers. The following constitutes a snapshot of my current thinking. Epistemological context During the period 2008-2012, I was requested to help design&build programming tools for a proposed new microprocessor architecture. The details of said architecture do not matter here; what is interesting is that folk in tha

For all that's holy, can you just leverage the Web, please?

When I moved in with my wife Laura in 2005, we lived in a shared apartment in Barcelona that had an ancient washing machine that was just there already, no idea who initially bought it. I managed to break the washing machine door's closing mechanism some time in 2006, so for a few weeks, whenever we did the washing, we had to lean a chair against the door so it wouldn't open. At the time, we were both students and living on a small budget. Eventually, later in the same year, we bought an Electr

These 8 iPhone 17 Pro Max Feature Rumors Have Me Questioning My Earlier Phone Choices

Apple's phone lineup is usually split between the more-affordable iPhone and the extras-added iPhone Pro models, but this year we could see another split, and I'm not talking about a possible iPhone 17 Air. Whereas the iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max are basically the same phones but with different size screens and bodies, the iPhone 17 Pro Max expected to be announced at Apple's "Awe dropping" event next week on Sept. 9 could set itself apart from the regular-size iPhone 17 Pro.

To address this, it’s launching a smaller, pocket-sized version of its flagship slate for folks who can’t luxuriate at a desk or armchair to do their thinking. The reMarkable Paper Pro Move is a slate with a 7.3-inch display that’s the same size as a reporter’s notepad. It’s a device that Chief Product Officer Mats Herding Solberg says is perfect for getting “real work done

Appeals court reinstates fired Democratic FTC commissioner

Rebecca Kelly Slaughter can resume her work as a commissioner for the FTC, a federal appeals court has ruled. Slaughter, who was one of the two Democratic commissioners for the FTC that President Trump fired back in March, filed a lawsuit for her reinstatement. "Your continued service on the FTC is inconsistent with my administration’s priorities," a letter to the commissioners said. In July, US District Judge Loren AliKhan ruled that her removal from the agency was "unlawful and without legal e
