cnet.com See Full Bio 2025-07-22 06:00:00

At CNET, we extensively cover different ways to lower your internet bill. But one major factor that is often overlooked is how you can protect yourself from internet pricing traps. According to a CNET survey, over 63% of adults in the US saw their internet prices increase last year. Even worse, more than half of those who complained about their bill increasing still experienced unreliable internet. Why and how does this happen? Many of the top internet service providers hike their prices after

Delta Air Lines is using AI to set the maximum price you’re willing to pay

theverge.com Jess Weatherbed 2025-07-22 09:50:57

Delta Air Lines is leaning into dynamic ticket pricing that uses artificial intelligence to individually determine the highest fee you’d willingly pay for flights, according to comments Fortune spotted in the company’s latest earnings call. Following a limited test of the technology last year, Delta is planning to shift away from static ticket prices entirely after seeing “amazingly favorable” results. “We will have a price that’s available on that flight, on that time, to you, the individual,”

Edgar Cervantes / Android Authority TL;DR YouTube Music tracks listening history across devices, but so far hasn’t offered a way to resume playback directly. With YouTube Music version 8.26.51, we’re now seeing the app sync playback progress across devices.

Best VPN services 2025: The fastest VPNs with the best networks, ranked

zdnet.com Charlie Osborne 2025-07-22 17:40:16

Virtual private networks (VPNs) are essential security tools to stop others from spying on you online. A VPN encrypts your data and conceals your Internet Protocol (IP) address, making it a great tool for general online use, traveling, and streaming. VPNs route traffic through their server network, assigning users new IP locations and preventing tracking, targeted advertising, and data theft. VPNs are not a silver bullet for security, but the best VPN services will protect your privacy without

There are countless Android-powered gaming handhelds, but they go beyond the usual slate of Android games by offering console emulation support.

Extending That XOR Trick to Billions of Rows

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-07-19 11:15:41

Can we extend the XOR trick for finding one or two missing numbers in a list to finding thousands of missing IDs in a billion-row table? Yes, we can! This is possible using a data structure called an Invertible Bloom Filter (IBF) that compares two sets with space complexity based only on the size of the difference. Using a generalization of the XOR trick [1], all the values that are identical cancel out, so the size of this data structure depends only on the size of the difference. Most explan
