A New ‘Foundation’ Clip Digs Into Some Prickly Family Dynamics

gizmodo.com Cheryl Eddy 2025-12-09 10:00:42

When Foundation fans first met newlyweds Toran (Cody Fern) and Bayta (Synnøve Karlsen) Mallow, two things stood out: first, that last name, signifying Toran’s connection to season two hero Hober Mallow; second, the way their self-aware glamour made them very much resemble futuristic versions of the social media influencers we have today. But it was also apparent there was substance beneath the sparkle—and episode five, “Where Tyrants Spend Eternity,” explores that idea even more. io9 has an exc

Ask HN: Do you struggle with flow state when using AI assisted coding tools?

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-12-10 00:08:01

It's been extremely difficult for me to achieve a flow state while using tools like `claude code` because I have to wait after every interaction. I get easily distracted, my mind wonders and I find myself reading HN and browsing the internet. I'm more productive in most of the tasks I need to do but in some of these detours I loose long periods of times without even noticing.

Trump tells states they'll lose out on broadband fund if they try to dictate rates

engadget.com Unknown 2025-12-10 05:30:20

States will lose out on their share of a $42 billion broadband fund if they attempt to dictate rates that internet services providers (ISPs) charge low-income customers, according to a new FAQ from the Trump administration seen by Ars Technica. That means ISPs — which are subsidized by the government in order to provide low-cost plans — will be able to set such rates under the BEAD (Broadband Equity, Access and Deployment) program.

‘Gags the Clown’ Leans Into an Urban Legend That Maybe Wasn’t a Legend

gizmodo.com Cheryl Eddy 2025-12-11 14:42:29

It’s been nearly a decade since an outbreak of clown sightings frightened people, first in the U.S. and then later across the globe. A clown in the right context isn’t necessarily scary, but a random clown just appearing with no obvious purpose is horror movie material. And, in fact, some of the creepy clown epidemic of 2016 can be traced back to Gags the Clown, a found-footage indie that turned some clever grassroots marketing into a stunt that went viral. Gags the Clown came out in 2018, whic
