The U.S. and EU Are Fighting Over Who Controls Big Tech

gizmodo.com Ece Yildirim 2025-09-11 08:27:46

President Trump just slapped 30% tariffs on goods coming from the European Union, escalating a long-simmering conflict over who gets to write the rules for Big Tech. The move came just after Brussels moved forward with more regulations, this time targeting the booming field of artificial intelligence. The latest flashpoint is the EU’s new “Code of Practice” for AI, a set of voluntary guidelines released Thursday aimed at addressing public safety concerns. While not legally binding, the code bui

Are a few people ruining the internet for the rest of us?

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-09-11 10:44:32

When I scroll through social media, I often leave demoralized, with the sense that the entire world is on fire and people are inflamed with hatred towards one another. Yet, when I step outside into the streets of New York City to grab a coffee or meet a friend for lunch, it feels downright tranquil. The contrast between the online world and my daily reality has only gotten more jarring. Since my own work is focused on topics such as intergroup conflict, misinformation, technology and climate ch

The Gottorf Globe and its reconstruction

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-09-11 09:16:07

The Gottorf Globe was known as an astronomic marvel some 350 years ago. The first planetarium in history is a synonym for Friedrich III’s cosmopolitanism, under whose sovereignty Gottorf became one of North Europe’s most significant royal courts and a cultural centre. The virtually authentic replication, now located close to the Museum Island, still doesn’t cease to impress visitors. Casually expressed, Friedrich III wanted to understand the connection between the earth and the sky. Thus, the s

C3 solved memory lifetimes with scopes

2025-07-11 Modern languages offer a variety of techniques to help with dynamic memory management, each one a different tradeoff in terms of performance, control and complexity. In this post we’ll look at an old idea, memory allocation regions or arenas, implemented via the C3 Temp allocator, which is the new default for C3. The Temp allocator combines the ease of use of garbage collection with C3’s unique features to give a simple and (semi)-automated solution within a manual memory management

If you’re a fan of Prime Video’s Fallout show and the games it’s based on, it sounds like Bethesda’s getting ready to capitalize on its current and future success. Talking to Variety, Fallout 76 creative director Jon Rush teased that game’s team and the creative forces behind the series have discussed “lining things up with the seasonal releases of the show.” The implication is some in-game tie-ins to the show, maybe skins for the key characters or an in-game event reminiscent of certain episod

Human-Constructed Dams Have Shifted the Earth’s Poles, Scientists Say

gizmodo.com Natalia Mesa 2025-09-11 07:00:30

Humans have built so many dams around the world that the Earth’s poles have wandered away from the planet’s rotational axis, new research suggests. Over the last 200 years, humans have constructed nearly 7,000 massive dams, impounding enough water to nudge the Earth’s poles by about three feet (one meter) and cause a 0.83-inch (21-millimeter) drop in global sea levels, according to a new study in Geophysical Research Letters.

At some point in the late 2010s, I became obsessed with my heart rate. I was at a point in my fitness life that I was training for marathons and I cared a whole lot about every process involved. I spent a certain percentage of my workday staring at my heart rate on my fitness watch and feeling smug if I kept my resting heart rate below 50 beats per minute (bpm) and wigging out if it went over 60 bpm.
