The new AirPods Pro 3 comes with silicone foam ear tips which differ from those used in previous models, and 9to5Mac’s Chance Miller said in his review that they offer “a noticeable improvement in fit.” Apple has now offered its advice on getting the best fit with the new ear tips, applying both subjective and objective tests … Even if you’re a seasoned AirPods Pro user, you may still need to adopt a different ear tips size this time.

The New York Times Mini Crossword Is Behind a Paywall: Here's a Way to Play

I'm a fan of the New York Times Mini Crossword -- a sporty, streamlined companion to the newspaper's legendary regular daily crossword. Typically, the Mini Crossword (we publish the answers daily) has roughly a dozen clues to work through -- six across-clues and six down-clues -- and you can complete it in less than a minute if all goes well. It makes me feel smart, unlike the big crossword, which sometimes makes me throw things. But in late August, some Mini Crossword players suddenly ran int

4 Things You Should Never Cook in a Nonstick Skillet, According to an Expert

cnet.com See Full Bio 2025-09-22 05:00:06

Nonstick cookware has its place in the kitchen, but its limitations should keep it from being your everyday pan. When used in the wrong situations, nonstick cookware can tank a recipe, leaving meat and vegetables without a proper sear. Some foods can damage the surface of your nonstick skillet, leading to a shorter lifespan or the release of nonstick materials into your food. As much as we love the easy cleanup, most foods fare better in a stainless-steel, carbon-steel, or cast-iron skillet. I

I got the highest score on ARC-AGI again swapping Python for English

I think ARC-AGI is still the most important benchmark we have today. It’s surprising that LLMs can win the math olympiad but struggle with simple puzzles that humans can solve easily. This highlights a core limitation of current LLMs: they struggle to reason about things they weren't trained on. They struggle to generalize. But they are getting better, fast. Last December, I got first place on ARC-AGI v1 with a score of 53.6%. A lot has changed since then. Thinking models had just come out and

Ozempic May Be Less Effective for Emotional Eaters, Study Suggests

GLP-1 agonists—so-called “wonder drugs” like Ozempic or Wegovy that help individuals lower blood sugar levels and lose weight, among other things—yield significant results for some patients, but not all. People’s motivations to overeat may play a role in this, according to a new study. To investigate why some people don’t benefit from GLP-1 agonists as much as others, researchers observed 92 participants with type 2 diabetes in Japan during their first year of taking GLP-1 drugs.
