How we built an interpreter for Swift

Bitrig dynamically generates and runs Swift apps on your phone. Normally this would require compiling and signing with Xcode, and you can’t do that on an iPhone. To make it possible to instantly run your app, we built a Swift interpreter. But it’s an unusual interpreter, since it interprets from Swift… to Swift. One of the top questions we’ve gotten is how it’s implemented, so we wanted to share how it works. To make this more accessible and interesting, we simplified some of the more esoteric

Honda combines Type-R handling with hybrid efficiency for 2026 Prelude

At the end of last year, we learned that Honda was bringing back the Prelude. Although Honda has varied the ingredients over the years, the recipe for the Prelude remains the same: a sleek coupe body and some cutting-edge technology under the skin, like four-wheel steering, as rhapsodized by the verbose but usually insightful motoring writer LJK Setright. Today, the new car broke cover ahead of its arrival in showrooms later this fall. It's a handsome shape, though I can't quite get over the re

Hledger 1.50

Transaction balancing is now done in a more robust way, using local precisions only (like Ledger) #2402. Until now, a transaction was required to balance using its commodities's global display precisions. Small imbalances were tolerated by configuring display precisions for the whole journal (with commodity directives). Now, a transaction is required to balance using the precisions in its journal entry only. This means each entry can use the precision it needs, and balancing precision and di

Synthesia’s AI clones are more expressive than ever. Soon they’ll be able to talk back.

When Synthesia launched in 2017, its primary purpose was to match AI versions of real human faces—for example, the former footballer David Beckham—with dubbed voices speaking in different languages. A few years later, in 2020, it started giving the companies that signed up for its services the opportunity to make professional-level presentation videos starring either AI versions of staff members or consenting actors. But the technology wasn’t perfect. The avatars’ body movements could be jerky a

Microsoft made a free YouTube Premium workaround, but I’m keeping my paid sub anyway

Rita El Khoury / Android Authority A couple of days ago, Microsoft Edge’s latest Canary version added a new and very intriguing feature: video background playback. While the feature seemed cool and innocuous at first glance, we discovered that it could be used to play YouTube videos in the background without paying for a Premium subscription. Better yet, Microsoft Edge also has a built-in ad-blocker that can remove ads while watching YouTube. A plus B equal the two most useful perks from a YouT

As a cell phone expert, I’m worried about the future of prepaid carriers

Edgar Cervantes / Android Authority Once dismissed as the domain of teenagers, bad credit consumers, or even shady activity, prepaid wireless has transformed into a real competitor in the smartphone age. Today, the prepaid market offers everything from ultra-budget choices to services that deliver an experience nearly indistinguishable from premium postpaid service. But this evolution comes with a new concern: over-saturation. There are now well over a dozen reputable prepaid carriers, along w

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

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

Trump Blames AI for Weird Video of Stuff Being Tossed Out White House Window

A very strange video appearing to show large objects being thrown out of a window at the White House went viral over Labor Day weekend.

The video appears to have been first posted to Instagram on Aug. 31 by an account called WashingtonianProbs. “One of our community members noticed some things being throw

How to Make Light Roast Espresso, According to Chemists (2025)

“You need to realize you've already rejected tradition by not getting a dark roast coffee. You've embraced modernism,” Hedrick says. “And if you're going to embrace modernism and reject traditionalism, you must always also reject traditional shot parameters.” But terrific light roast is possible. There are two ways to go. You can go traditional—changing your dose and ratios a bit but aiming for a cup with intensity and balance. That's what I've been honing for the past year. But there's also

WordPress shows off Telex, its experimental AI development tool

Web publishing platform WordPress is introducing an early version of an AI development tool, which CEO Matt Mullenweg described as a “V0 or Lovable, but specifically for WordPress” — V0 and Lovable being references to popular “vibe coding” services for building software using prompt-based, AI interfaces. Mullenweg introduced the new WordPress AI tool, called Telex, at the company’s WordCamp US 2025 conference in Portland last week, alongside other AI experiments. During his keynote address, Mul

YouTube Is Pausing Premium Family Plans if You Aren't Watching From the Same Address

YouTube is coming for your shared Premium account, just like Netflix did

Edgar Cervantes / Android Authority TL;DR YouTube seems to be cracking down on Premium Family plan members who don’t live in the same household as the plan manager. Users are reportedly receiving warning emails that their Premium access will be paused if they fail YouTube’s location-based check-in. This mirrors location-based password-sharing crackdowns by Netflix and other major streaming services. If you’ve been freeloading on a YouTube Premium Family plan from outside the “family home,” t
