Unexpected inconsistency in records

Unexpected inconsistency in records The other day, I was trying to figure out a bug in my code, and it turned out to be a misunderstanding on my part as to how C# records work. It’s entirely possible that I’m the only one who expected them to work in the way that I did, but I figured it was worth writing about in case.

T-Mobile’s latest 5G network upgrades mean smoother video calls and online games

Joe Maring / Android Authority TL;DR T-Mobile is the first US-based carrier to upgrade to a new “L4S” network technology, which reduces latency in its 5G networks. L4S improves upon existing technologies by decongesting networks in real-time, prioritizing applications that require faster internet. Thankfully, you don’t need to upgrade to newer hardware to use T-Mobile’s new low-latency tech. Choppy video calls or online games are among the most wicked ways to ruin someone’s mood. Every carri

The Morning After: This is the Pixel 10 (or maybe the Pixel 10 Pro)

While I wasn’t expecting a major design shakeup, Google revealed the design of its new Pixel phone, almost a month before the official launch event. You can take a look for yourself on the front page of the Google Store. A short video teaser reveals one of the upcoming Pixel 10 smartphones. The device bears a similar appearance to the Pixel 9, with a back design that makes the camera unit protrude from the frame, similar to the Pixel 9 Pro. Oh, and an additional camera — if this is the base Pix

Videos and images in Google Messages have a smooth new animation (APK teardown)

Edgar Cervantes / Android Authority TL;DR Google Messages may introduce a new animation for the media player. Videos and images now slide into view from the bottom of the screen instead of fading in and out. You can also swipe down to close an image or video. Google is not new to tweaking its apps. Sometimes, those changes improve the experience, make the experience worse, or have no effect at all. The next tweak is coming for the Messages app, and it seems like an update that will fall into

Google shows off the Pixel 10 less than a month before its launch

As is tradition, Google has already shown off at least one of its new Pixel phones before it's announced. The front page of the Google Store currently features a short video teasing one of the Pixel 10 smartphones the company is announcing on August 20. If you take the webpage literally, then Google's video is showing off the base Pixel 10, which has a similar look to the Pixel 9, with some key differences. Those include a new grayish-blue finish, a tweaked back design that makes the back of th

Here’s why there are so few new cars for under $30,000

The affordability crisis affecting the US automobile market shows little signs of abating. The average price of a new car continues to rise: In June the average new vehicle MSRP was $51,124, according to Kelly Blue Book, with average transaction prices a little lower at $48,907. While one might imagine this has had a dampening effect on car sales, the opposite is true—the first half of 2025 has seen a robust market with some months seeing extremely high volumes. But most signs point to a tighten

Experimental surgery performed by AI-driven surgical robot

Intuitive Surgical, an American biotechnology company, introduced DaVinci surgical robots in the late 1990s, and they became groundbreaking teleoperation equipment.

What happens when housing prices go down?

There’s a theory about housing that has taken hold with a kind of religious fervor: If you want to make housing more affordable, just build more of it. Supply and demand. Simple economics. This narrative is now dominating housing policy discussion across the political spectrum. Deregulate, upzone, speed up approvals, let the market work. And if you build enough homes, the theory goes, prices will come down. But here’s the question almost no one asks: What happens when prices actually start to

Mark Zuckerberg Is Expanding His Secretive Hawaii Compound. Part of It Sits Atop a Burial Ground
