NuxtLabs is joining Vercel

NuxtLabs is joining Vercel From the start, our mission at NuxtLabs has been to create the best possible developer experience for building fast, beautiful applications. We built Nuxt as an open source framework under the MIT license because we believed that great tools should be accessible, transparent, and community-driven. We’ve spent years pouring our time, energy, and resources into Nuxt. And through that, we’ve built not just a product, but also a community. One I’m proud of every single d

New Research Bolsters Freaky Theory That Earth Sits in a Giant Cosmic Void

Images of the cosmos, such as the James Webb Space Telescope’s deep space snapshot, make space look chock-full of stuff. In the grand scheme of things, it is, but all those stars, galaxies, planets, and other celestial objects may not be as uniformly distributed as photos make them look. The fact is, space is likely peppered with bubbles of relative emptiness, and some astronomers believe we’re sitting inside of one. A growing body of evidence suggests that our entire Milky Way galaxy is locate

Elon Musk's X says Indian government ordered over 2,000 accounts blocked, including Reuters

Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi arrives at the White House to meet with U.S. President Donald Trump on Feb. 13, 2025 in Washington, DC. Elon Musk's X said Tuesday that the Indian government ordered the company to block 2,355 accounts, including Reuters, in the country. "The Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology demanded immediate action- within one hour- without providing justification, and required the accounts to remain blocked until further notice," X's global government af

Microsoft Teams now has threaded conversations

is a senior editor and author of Notepad , who has been covering all things Microsoft, PC, and tech for over 20 years. Microsoft has added threaded conversations to its Teams communications app this week. After promising to launch the highly-requested feature in mid-2025, Microsoft is now releasing a public preview of threaded conversations for Teams users to enable. The Microsoft Teams threads integration debuts in the channels section of the app, where it works a little differently to how Sl

Cybersecurity’s Unsung Heroes: Elevating Neurodiverse Talent in the Digital Age

They aren’t your average hires. They don’t glide through job interviews or thrive in open-plan offices. But when it comes to pattern recognition, threat modeling, or zero-day hunting, neurodiverse individuals often outperform their peers. And yet, they remain largely untapped in the cybersecurity workforce. If we’re serious about fortifying digital defense systems, it’s time we stop overlooking the neurodiverse minds that already think in ways most cybersecurity frameworks are only beginning to

Gemini’s new rainbow-colored overlay box is rolling out to beta testers

AssembleDebug / Android Authority TL;DR Google’s in the middle of freshening up Gemini’s look with new rainbow colors and some updates to the on-screen overlay. After the app icon got new colors last week, they’re now starting to hit the overlay in beta. We’re still waiting on the overlay’s new shape and on-screen animation to arrive. Pride might have been last month, but don’t tell Gemini, because Google’s AI agent is currently smack-dab right in the middle of a rainbow-fueled makeover. Aft

KEF Xio Review: So Good, So Expensive

There’s a level of confidence you have to admire in a brand entering a new market and out-pricing almost every single one of its competitors, straight from the off. That certainly appears to be KEF’s strategy with its very first soundbar, the KEF Xio—an all-in-one Atmos soundbar that will set you back a cool $2,500 (£2,000.) Of course, there’s the obvious: that’s enough to buy yourself a pretty decent surround sound package, with a performance that any soundbar will struggle to match. But if yo

Tyr, a new Rust DRM driver targeting CSF-based ARM Mali GPUs

The last year has seen substantial progress on the DRM infrastructure required to write GPU drivers in Rust. While a great part of it was fueled by the development of Nova (the new driver for GSP-based NVIDIA GPUs), and by AGX (the driver for the GPUs on Apple's M-series chip that preceded Nova), a few components were being worked on to cater to a then undisclosed driver that was being prototyped behind the scenes. A driver that we now introduce to the community at large in a very early stage.

Gemini’s new overlay is getting ready to bounce onto your screen (APK teardown)

AssembleDebug / Android Authority TL;DR Google’s currently working on a number of visual changes to how you interact with the Gemini overlay. In addition to updating the coloring and shape of the overlay, we’ve identified a new animation it could use to appear on screen. We can trigger this effect both when accessing the overlay via swiping, as well as long-pressing the power button. Google continues to make the case for Gemini in — well, pretty much everything — and little by little it’s be

SUS Lang: The SUS Hardware Description Language

The compiler keeps track of many aspects of your hardware design, and displays them in the editor. Core Philosophy The SUS HDL is meant to be a direct competitor to Synthesizeable Verilog and VHDL. Its main goal is to be an intuitive and thin syntax for building netlists, such that traditional synthesis tools can still be used to analyze the resulting hardware. SUS shall impose no paradigm on the hardware designer, such as requiring specific communication protocols or iteration constructs. In

Solving Wordle with uv's dependency resolver

Introduction In a previous life, I wrote a Sudoku solver that relied on Poetry's dependency resolver. We ended up selling that startup to EDB (not because of the Poetry hack), which means that they now own this IP. And, since then, Python packaging has advanced, with uv taking the world by storm. This means that it's time for a refresh. Can we use uv instead of Poetry? And can we solve a Wordle instead of a Sudoku? For the impatient: you can get the solver from my GitHub. Run uv run main.py r

You Could Be Getting a US-Only Replacement TikTok App Ahead of Possible September Sale

TikTok owner ByteDance is working on a new US-only version of its popular vertical video app that would replace the current one ahead of a September deadline for the Chinese company to divest ownership in the US, The Information reports. Citing anonymous sources, the site reports that the new app, codenamed "M2" would launch on Sept. 5 and would require users in the US to switch from the existing app to the new one. President Donald Trump recently extended a deadline for the owner to sell off i

F1 in Britain: Terrible English summer weather equals entertaining race

The heat dome that has been oppressing much of Europe seems to have largely ignored the British Isles. Not a drop of rain marred the 24 hour races at Le Mans, the Nürburgring, or Spa-Francorchamps, held unusually over consecutive weekends this June. Similarly, last weekend's Austrian Grand Prix took place under scorching skies that were baking the Tyrolean mountains. No such luck for the vast crowds at Silverstone attending the British Grand Prix this past weekend, who definitely needed their wa

US TikTok users will get their own American-owned version of the app

The ongoing TikTok saga rumbles on, but a new report claims that we may be close to a resolution. It says US TikTok users will get their own version of the app, which will be owned by an American company. The latest development happens shortly after we got sight of the letter sent to Apple to persuade the company to return TikTok to the App Store despite it being illegal to do so … A quick recap Under a law passed by Congress, TikTok has been banned from the US since January 19.

July 5, 1687: When Newton explained why you don't float away

The Day the Universe Got Organised (Mostly) People were worried, mostly about everything, but particularly about why things stayed on the ground. Apples fell. Horses galloped. Cannonballs soared (briefly) and came crashing down. But no one was quite sure why the moon didn’t join in and plummet to Earth in the same enthusiastic fashion. And then on July 5, 1687, Isaac Newton published a book with a title so long it felt like a Latin riddle: Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica. In three

Volunteer finds Holy Grail of abolitionist-era Baptist documents

By MICHAEL CASEY GROTON, Mass. (AP) — Jennifer Cromack was combing through the American Baptist archive when she uncovered a slim box among some 18th and 19th century journals. Opening it, she found a scroll in pristine condition. A closer look revealed the 5-foot-long (1.5-meter-long) document was a handwritten declaration titled “A Resolution and Protest Against Slavery,” signed by 116 New England ministers in Boston and adopted March 2, 1847. Until its discovery in May at the archives in Gr

Injection Rejection (2006)

Matthias Winkelmann's company decided to go the ole' outsourcing route and hand off all development work for a fixed-bid project to a certain overseas company. As it turned out, the hourly rate for certain overseas programmers were less than half that of the in-house folks, so management did the math and figured they could profit that much more. The in-house programmers were told to spend "only a little bit of time" on the project -- no technical advice, no coding assistance, and no even lookin
