The F1 movie is a cinema smash hit, on track to outperform combined box office of all previous Apple originals films

9to5mac.com Benjamin Mayo 2026-02-26 21:56:04

Whatever you think about Apple’s in-your-face advertising tactics, it seems to be paying off. The F1 movie is set to take in about $145 million in its opening weekend at the box office, with $55.6 million domestic. This easily outstrips any of Apple Original Film’s prior theatrical debuts, and sets the movie on a path to exceed the gross box office of all previous Apple films … combined. Apple releases almost all of its original films in small scale showings for some easy press attention and t

Unhooking from Amazon Ebooks

news.ycombinator.com Remy Sharp 2026-02-26 22:52:02

Over the years we, as a family, have been moving our purchases away from Amazon, except in one single place: Kindle ebooks. For me it's that I'm incapable of reading physical books (but my kindle unlocked my reading), and with a Kindle, I was limited as to where I buy my books. When I read that it was relatively easy to jailbreak all the Kindle models I used this as my opportunity to move to buying epub books and hopefully more of that money goes to the authors (in an ideal world…).

Reverse Engineering the Microchip CLB

Microchip added a very cool peripheral called the Configurable Logic Block (CLB) to there new PIC16F13145 microcontroller family. It’s essentially a small FPGA (32 LUTs) that can connect to the internals of the chip. However, they don’t document how to configure it yourself, only referring you to their online configurator tool that submits jobs to an API that places and routes to LUTs. The [CLB] Interface does not appear as an SFR in the Register Map and is not directly user-accessible; it is

Error handling in Rust

news.ycombinator.com Felix Knorr 2026-02-27 00:28:25

On Error Handling in Rust The current standard for error handling, when writing a crate, is to define one error enum per module, or one for the whole crate that covers all error cases that the module or crate can possibly produce, and each public function that returns a Result will use said error enum. This means, that a function will return an error enum, containing error variants that the function cannot even produce. If you match on this error enum, you will have to manually distinguish whi

Couples Retreat for Humans Dating AIs Becomes Skin-Crawlingly Uncomfortable

A well-intentioned writer decided to get a group of humans and their AI companions together for a cabin retreat. Somehow, it went worse than anyone could have imagined. As Johns Hopkins science writer Sam Apple described in a new essay for Wired, the apps that each human participant used to communicate with their AI companions varied — but the intensity, obsession, and affection they felt for their digital paramours seemed very real, albeit sometimes tortured.
