iPhone 17 Pro: Apple’s rumored not-so-clear case design shown in video

Yesterday, leaker Majin Bu revealed that Apple’s iPhone 17 Pro Clear Case may not be so clear after all. A second source has now backed the claim. Sonny Dickson shared a video on social media that shows someone handling what is likely a knockoff case based on Apple’s iPhone 17 Pro Clear Case design. You’ve probably already seen the new iPhone 17 clear case, but here’s another look at it. Would you prefer an all-clear version? pic.twitter.com/jsCPankDkx — Sonny Dickson (@SonnyDickson) September

Zscaler data breach exposes customer info after Salesloft Drift compromise

Cybersecurity company Zscaler warns it suffered a data breach after threat actors gained access to its Salesforce instance and stole customer information, including the contents of support cases. This warning follows the compromise of Salesloft Drift, an AI chat agent that integrates with Salesforce, in which attackers stole OAuth and refresh tokens, enabling them to gain access to customer Salesforce environments and exfiltrate sensitive data. In an advisory, Zscaler says that its Salesforce

I've tried 3 different smart rings but I keep going back to Apple Watch - here's why

Apple Watch Ultra and Oura Ring Jason Hiner/ZDNET Follow ZDNET: Add us as a preferred source on Google. I've been wearing an Apple Watch every day for the past decade and I've been using it to track my sleep every night since 2019. Over the past few years, I've known more and more friends, family, and colleagues opting for smart rings instead of smart watches to track their health. I've also personally tested the Oura Ring, the Samsung Galaxy Ring, and the Ultrahuman Ring Air. But eventually,

Compiling Dinner

Compiling Dinner When you read a recipe, you’re already programming. Ingredients are inputs. Actions—chop, stir, simmer—are instructions. The kitchen is your runtime environment, and you, the cook, are the processor. If you follow the recipe to the letter, you get the expected output: a finished dish. Miss a step, and you’ve introduced a bug. Burn the onions, and you’ve hit a runtime error. Seen this way, recipes are languages, and cooking is compilation. ⸻ Recipes as Grammar A recipe might

A Unique, High-Tech (Family) Computer

There’s a concept that many people have tried, with varying effects: the “educational computer”, a device that a parent can buy for their children to learn the basics of the computer, which everyone will need to know in the future, and can also play games, so the children will actually want to use it. These have ranged from plasticky VTech toys with little more than an electronic organizer, to the Wonder Computer of the 1980’s, the Commodore VIC-20, which was a full computer. This is a prime mar

A review of Nim 2: The good and bad with example code

I've been using Nim for about 1-2 years now, and I believe the language is undervalued. It's not perfect, of course, but it's pleasant to write and read. My personal website uses Nim. After reading a recent article on Nim ("Why Nim") and the associated HN comments, it's clear that comments and some information about Nim are misleading and outdated. Since Nim 2, a tracing Garbage Collector is not the default nor the recommended memory management option. Instead, the default memory management mod

Isolated(any)

Ahh, @isolated(any) . It’s an attribute of contradictions. You might see it a lot, but it’s ok to ignore it. You don’t need to use it, but I think it should be used more. It must always take an argument, but that argument cannot vary. Confusing? Definitely. But we’ll get to it all. To understand why @isolated(any) was introduced, we need to take a look at async functions. let respond To Emergency : () async -> Void This is about as simple a function type as we can get. But, things start to g

CocoaPods trunk read-only plan

TLDR: In two years we plan to turn CocoaPods trunk to be read-only. At that point, no new versions or pods will be added to trunk. - Note, this post has been updated in May 2025. Last month I wrote about how CocoaPods is currently being maintained, I also noted that we were discussing converting the main CocoaPods spec repo "trunk" to be read-only: We are discussing that on a very long, multi-year, basis we can drastically simplify the security of CocoaPods trunk by converting the Specs Repo t

Meet the Silicon Valley Donors Backing California’s Redistricting Push

In the latest sign that Silicon Valley titans are increasingly throwing their weight behind political issues, Netflix co-founder Reed Hastings has contributed $2 million to support Gov. Gavin Newsom’s Proposition 50 campaign. The move is the latest underscoring how Silicon Valley’s deep-pocketed executives are increasingly wielding influence in California politics and beyond. The November ballot measure would scrap California’s independent redistricting commission, returning map-drawing author

Amazon disrupts Russian APT29 hackers targeting Microsoft 365

Researchers have disrupted an operation attributed to the Russian state-sponsored threat group Midnight Blizzard, which sought access to Microsoft 365 accounts and data. Also known as APT29, the hacker group compromised websites in a watering hole campaign to redirect selected targets "to malicious infrastructure designed to trick users into authorizing attacker-controlled devices through Microsoft’s device code authentication flow." The Midnight Blizzard threat actor has been linked to Russia

Leaked Analogue 3D press video finally gives us our first real look at the N64 clone

TL;DR The Analogue 3D hardware has finally been showcased, nearly a year after it was announced. A press video, uncovered by a Discord user before its official release, shows the finished hardware. After facing several delays, it’s still slated for a Q4 2025 release. When it was first announced last year, the Analogue 3D generated a lot of hype. However, despite reassurances from the company that development was on schedule, the company still hasn’t officially shown the finished hardware in a

YouTube TV just got a brand-new look on Android TV devices

Aamir Siddiqui / Android Authority TL;DR YouTube is rolling out its promised redesigned UI for the YouTube TV app on Android TVs. New visual changes include centered Pause/Resume controls and separated pill buttons for several interface elements.

The time picker in iPhone alarms has a bizarre hidden design element

We wouldn’t think many aspects of iPhone user interface design could be more straightforward than the time picker in the alarm function – but it appears we would be wrong … Macworld spotted a tweet by someone who found that neither hours nor minutes are loops, but are instead very long lists with a definite end. When the hour passes 23 (or 11pm if you’re that way inclined) and returns to 00, it isn’t actually returning to zero, it’s moving on to a new one. Similarly, when the minutes pass from

De-Googling TOTP Authenticator Codes

Back to Articles 1st Sep 2025 In the ongoing effort to extricate myself from Google's services, I've been paring down my usage of their apps on my (admittedly Android) phone. I'm now down to two Google apps I use regularly: Maps (for traffic data) and Authenticator (for TOTP [A] Time-based One Time Password codes). Now, I spend most of my time in a terminal window on MacOS or connected to a Linux machine; it'd be nice if I could get TOTPs on the command-line, and it turns out there's a utilit

India's billion-dollar e-waste empire

In the dead of a cold December night in 2023, at a dump near Delhi, hundreds of men huddled around small bonfires, clutching paper cups of tea. They tossed plastic bags into the flames as they waited for a fleet of trucks to arrive. The trucks rolled in one by one, full of electronic marvels now reduced to e-waste: Nokia, Itel, and Samsung smartphones; Sony and LG LCD screens; Tata air conditioners; Canon and Epson printers. As the trailer gates opened at the back of one truck, Rashid Khan and

Bear is now source-available

Bear is now source-available 01 Sep, 2025 When I started building Bear I made the code available under an MIT license. I didn't give it much thought at the time, but knew that I wanted the code to be available for people to learn from, and to make it easily auditable so users could validate claims I have made about the privacy and security of the platform. Unfortunately over the years there have been cases of people forking the project in the attempt to set up a competing service. And it hurt

Trade in War

In World War II, Britain was fighting for its survival against German aerial bombardment. Yet Britain was importing dyes from Germany at the same time. This sounds curious, to put it mildly. How can two countries at war with each other also be trading goods? Examples of this abound, actually. Britain also traded with its enemies for almost all of World War I. India and Pakistan conducted trade with each other during the First Kashmir War, from 1947 to 1949, and during the India-Pakistan War of
