androidauthority.com Unknown 2026-03-19 05:46:24

Ryan Haines / Android Authority TL;DR A teardown of the Google app’s recent beta shows Gemini’s overlay UI may soon adopt Google’s brand colors. It replaces Gemini’s current two-tone colors with Google’s trademark red, blue, green, and yellow colors. The colors accent the mic button and highlight the chat box for interacting with Gemini.

In 1825, Michael Faraday discovered one of the most fascinating compounds in chemistry: benzene.

Is gravity just entropy rising? Long-shot idea gets another look

news.ycombinator.com George Musser 2026-03-18 19:36:41

The object on the left absorbs the particles coming from the left, the one on the right absorb
