Avid 9to5Mac readers know that it is getting increasingly harder to have a day go by and not come across a post about a new (or old) lawsuit trying to challenge, dismantle, or overturn Apple’s App Store rules. Now, a new book out later this month pieces some of the biggest battles together in one place.

Why is Japan still investing in custom floating point accelerators?

news.ycombinator.com Timothy Prickett Morgan 2025-10-12 00:27:24

It has taken nearly two decades and an immense amount of work by millions of people for high performance computing to go mainstream with GenAI. And now, we live in a world where AI servers crammed with accelerators account for half of the money spent on systems worldwide. There is no law anywhere that says that accelerator has to be a GPU, although that has been the accelerator of choice by far because GPUs are, like CPUs, general purpose processors that are explicitly designed to support vario

Bob Stein and Voyager (2021)

Voyager tends to be overlooked in almost every survey because we didn’t really fit into anybody’s category. Librarians didn’t really pay much attention. The computer world never cared. Hollywood never really cared. We touched all these industries, but because we weren’t central to any of them and didn’t really ally with any of them in particular, we were in fact always an outlier. — Bob Stein In 1945, Vannevar Bush, an advisor to the American government on the subjects of engineering and techno

Many YouTube content creators, myself included, noticed something in early to mid-August: views were down.

America’s First Private Nuclear Fuel Recycling Facility to Open in Tennessee

Nuclear energy is among the most promising alternatives to fossil fuels—if we can find a sustainable way to take care of the unwanted, radioactive waste generated by the process. Stakeholders from both the public and private sectors have suggested various solutions, but a Tennessee firm will be the first to actually build and operate a U.S.-based recycling facility for nuclear fuel.

Trump’s Policies Are Shutting Out Americans From the Coolest New Gadgets

Tech companies big and small now struggle to tantalize you with tech without telling you how much it will cost, or—hell—whether you can even buy it. The still-ongoing IFA 2025 tech conference in Berlin proved how merely shipping tech to the U.S. is more tenuous than at any time in the last few decades. From what I saw and heard both on the floor and off, it became clear that the era of plentiful, affordable, and cool shit will melt away in favor of an epoch of dull and ever-more expensive tech.

Review: Anker’s new MagSafe battery bank truly delivers in its ultra-slim package

Earlier this summer, Anker announced a trio of new products – one of them being an incredibly thin MagSafe/Qi2 battery for iPhones, and now even Google Pixel 10. I’ve spent my fair share of time with it, and the new Anker Nano Power Bank is honestly everything you’d want out of a MagSafe battery bank. With Apple no longer making their own MagSafe batteries, and the upcoming iPhone 17 Air having relatively weak battery life – this could be a great purchase to make ahead of Apple’s ‘Awe dropping’

The tells in the commercial are obvious and what one would expect. The AI avatar's hair is a bit off, which ruins the charade that this is a real person. The physical mannerisms and speaking tone are also wonky. A facial mole moves around at one point. It's AI. Yo
