Jujutsu + Radicle = ❤️ How I use Jujutsu in tandem with Radicle Published by fintohaps on 14.08.2025 Roughly a year ago at the first ever Local First Conference, a friend and previous colleague – Alex Good – told me about this tool called jj (Jujutsu). We did the usual thing and I sat down beside him as he explained it to me.

Apple’s blood oxygen monitoring returns to its latest Apple Watches

Apple announced on Thursday it’s introducing a redesigned Blood Oxygen feature for some Watch Series 8, Series 10, and Apple Watch Ultra. With this move, Apple is bringing back blood oxygen monitoring by tweaking the feature to get around the International Trade Commission’s (ITC) import ban. Blood oxygen data will be measured and calculated on the user’s paired iPhone, and results can be viewed in the Respiratory section of the Health app. This means users won’t be able to view the data on the

U.S. Allegedly Super-Charged Its Efforts to Prevent China From Getting American Chips

The Trump administration has made curbing China’s access to high-powered AI chips a high priority. According to the government, China may use the chips to build up its arsenal of military technology, and it simply can’t have that. At the same time, America’s considerable and longstanding chip export controls may also be aimed at slowing China’s own chip industry.
