theverge.com Brandt Ranj 2025-08-27 20:30:00

Anker’s 25,000mAh power bank with two built-in, retractable USB-C cables might be as essential for you as it is for me. It offers fast charging speeds, serving up to 100W through either of its USB-C cables (one of which doubles as a handle when it’s not in use), or a combined 165W if you have them both charging gadgets simultaneously. In time for Prime Day, this model costs $94.99 ($25 off) at Amazon and Anker. This is the lowest price it’s sold at in months. I’ve tested this battery pack with

Measuring the Impact of AI on Experienced Open-Source Developer Productivity

We conduct a randomized controlled trial (RCT) to understand how early-2025 AI tools affect the productivity of experienced open-source developers working on their own repositories. Surprisingly, we find that when developers use AI tools, they take 19% longer than without—AI makes them slower.

Space Ice Is Actually Really Weird, Scientists Say

gizmodo.com Gayoung Lee 2025-08-28 00:45:43

For astronomers, probing the mysteries of “space ice”—its molecular makeup and how it formed—could be the key to understanding not just extraterrestrial geology but also the potential for alien life. In a study published Monday in Physical Review B, researchers in England report that “space ice” likely contains countless tiny crystals inside and is less liquid-like than astronomers previously believed. At least, that’s according to computer simulations and experimental replications. The discove
