We Need a Clamshell iPhone Now That Android Has Figured Out Foldables

gizmodo.com Kyle Barr 2025-09-10 22:50:25

Foldables are far more brittle than traditional phones, and that’s a problem when you’re spending between $1,800 and $2,000 on a single device. Finally, in 2025, the flip-out, tablet-style, foldable phone may get the remodel it needed to stick it out with cheaper devices. New leaks suggest the next Google Pixel foldable will be able to better survive a mote of dust. Samsung’s next Z Fold 7 “Ultra” may have similar staying power when we finally get to see it on July 9.

Why the Shortest Day of Your Life Could Happen This Summer

Earth might be about to spin out its fastest day on record. And no one knows why. On July 9, 22, or August 5, our planet might complete the fastest spin on its axis ever recorded, breaking last year’s record, according to Graham Jones, an astrophysicist writing for timeanddate.com—a website dedicated to tracking time and time zones. According to the website, Earth spins faster when the Moon’s orbit takes it significantly north or south relative to the equator (among other factors). The differe

How a data processing problem at Lyft became the basis for Eventual

techcrunch.com Rebecca Szkutak 2025-09-11 02:00:00

When Eventual founders Sammy Sidhu and Jay Chia were working as software engineers at Lyft’s autonomous vehicle program, they witnessed a brewing data infrastructure problem — and one that would only become larger with the rise of AI. Self-driving cars produce a ton of unstructured data from 3D scans and photos to text and audio. There wasn’t a tool for Lyft engineers that could understand and process all of those different types of data at the same time — and all in one place. This left engine
