A guide to using Edits, Meta’s CapCut rival for short-form video editing

techcrunch.com Aisha Malik 2025-12-24 06:17:11

Meta recently released a new video editing app for creators called Edits. The new app is designed to rival ByteDance’s CapCut, a popular short-form video-editing app used by many creators. Meta first shared that it was working on Edits back in January after ByteDance-owned CapCut was removed from U.S. app stores when the TikTok ban momentarily went into effect. Although the app has since come back online and is available to download, TikTok’s future in the U.S. remains uncertain, so Meta is rea

Skechers is making kids’ shoes with a hidden AirTag compartment

techcrunch.com Amanda Silberling 2025-12-24 11:13:18

Skechers introduced a line of kids’ sneakers that contain a hidden compartment where parents can slip in an Apple AirTag. Inside the heel of the shoe, a small insert can be lifted to reveal the compartment. Then, parents can track the location of their child — or, at least their child’s shoes. These shoes don’t come with an AirTag, and they don’t appear to be an actual collaboration with Apple, but rather, a third-party product that Skechers has developed on its own.

Survey of 1,000 Experts Shows Quantum Physicists Still Can’t Agree on Anything

In July 1925—exactly a century ago—famed physicist Werner Heisenberg wrote a letter to his equally famous colleague, Wolfgang Pauli. In it, Heisenberg confesses that his “views on mechanics have become more radical with each passing day,” requesting Pauli’s prompt feedback on an attached manuscript he’s considering whether to “complete…or to burn.” That was the Umdeutung (reinterpretation) paper, which set the foundation for a more empirically verifiable version of quantum mechanics.
