The iPhone 17 Needs Amazing Cameras. Here's What I Think Apple Should Do

cnet.com See Full Bio 2025-11-30 10:00:00

The iPhone 16 Pro already packs one of the best camera setups found on any phone, but the iPhone 17 needs to take things even further when it launches in just a few weeks. Sure, Apple's phones are capable of taking stunning photos, thanks to its awesome software, ProRaw format and its wealth of video skills, but Apple's rivals have been doing big things, too. The Galaxy S25 Ultra, the Pixel 9 Pro and the Xiaomi 14 Ultra all pack amazing camera setups that have given the iPhone 16 Pro a run for i

Reflecting on My Failure to Build a Billion-Dollar Company (2019)

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-11-26 15:17:33

Feb 7, 2019 by Sahil Lavingia Reflecting on My Failure to Build a Billion-Dollar Company In 2011, I left my job as the second employee at Pinterest — before I vested any of my stock — to work on what I thought would be my life's work. I thought Gumroad would become a billion-dollar company, with hundreds of employees. It would IPO, and I would work on it until I died. Something like that. Needless to say, that didn't happen. Now, it may look like I am in an enviable position, running a prof

Survey suggests Google should shut up and take your money for Pixel 10

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-12-01 00:00:05

The Google Pixel 10 series launch is just a week away, but there’s been no shortage of rumors and leaks. All four phones could benefit from a landmark Tensor G5 chip and integrated magnets for Qi 2 wireless charging. However, it sounds like the base Pixel and Pixel 10 Pro Fold in particular could also bring some interesting features. The looming launch got us wondering how many readers are actually planning to upgrade to the Pixel 10 phones. We posted a poll to find out, and the results are in!

Even with three cameras, the Pixel 10 isn’t the Pixel phone I want

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-12-01 00:00:42

Thanks to Google’s nonchalance about early announcements, we’ve already seen how the new Pixel 10 series is going to look. The biggest upgrade by far is coming to the base model, which is, for the first time, getting a third camera lens on the back. It’s such a big upgrade that it makes the Pixel 10 the perfect phone for most people — you won’t be missing out on the usual differentiator between the Pro and non-Pro models.

A promising Sega Saturn emulator brings major improvements in a beefy update

TL;DR The Ymir emulator for PCs has received a major update that improves performance and compatibility. The Sega Saturn emulator also now offers screenshot functionality and support for two notable Saturn controllers. The Sega Saturn is one of the more complicated retro video game consoles to emulate, but we’ve seen several solid emulators over the years.

Apple’s AI Ambitions Leave Big Questions Over Its Climate Goals

wired.com Sophie Charara 2025-12-01 02:30:00

Here’s a simple question: Is the current top iPhone better for the environment than the top iPhone was five years ago? Let’s take the iPhone Pro series. If we’re looking at recycled and renewable materials, it’s an easy yes. Compare the iPhone 11 Pro, released in September 2019, with the iPhone 16 Pro, released in September 2024, and there has been good progress—from a few smaller components and packaging to now at more than 25 percent of the whole phone.

iPhone 17 release is rumored for September: Everything you need to know about the 'thinnest iPhone ever' and the Apple fall event

The closer we get to Apple's reveal of the iPhone 17 lineup, the more excited we are to see what's different from the previous iPhones. The newest smartphones will come equipped with the latest iOS 26 features. Since we still have to wait at least a month (presumably) until the iPhone event, we can at least speculate what the new phones will look like.

Engineering Breakthrough Opens Door to Cheap Hydrogen Power

gizmodo.com Gayoung Lee 2025-12-02 02:45:37

As an alternative to fossil fuel combustion, hydrogen fuel cells hold tremendous promise. But they’re also notoriously difficult and expensive to manage, which largely explains why we don’t see them everywhere (or anywhere, for that matter, except for a few initiatives that are “exploring” their efficiency). But that may soon change. In a Nature Materials paper published August 8, researchers announced the development of a new type of solid-oxide fuel cell (SOFC) that addresses an underlying pr

The Switch 2 can be enjoyed right out of the box, but it’s even better with the right accessories. Some of these add-ons are more crucial than others, especially if you’re deciding what to buy early on. For example, a case and a screen protector can keep your console safe from scuffs, scratches, and drops, so both are what I’d consider to be essential. On the other hand, a microSD Express card lets you add even more digital games to your library, although the console’s somewhat generous 256GB o

That’s a not-insignificant 32 percent off the usual $249 price of the noise-canceling in-ears. Apple’s flagship AirPods were $100 off — a record-low $149 — during Prime Day, so we have seen them even cheaper than this, but for a non-sale period, Amazon’s current deal is worth considering.
