The U.S. International Trade Commission (ITC) has upheld a complaint by Samsung that China’s BOE had stolen trade secrets relating to OLED screens, and banned the import of products containing these … The ITC ruling The ITC has the power to ban companies from both importing products into the US, and selling th

cnbc.com Sean Conlon 2026-01-21 05:04:52

The price of bitcoin was last down 2.8% at $116,516.00, according to Coin Metrics. That marks a pullback from the day's high of $120,481.86. Bitcoin fell below the $117,000 level on Tuesday after cryptocurrency-related bills were blocked in the House of Representatives. The drop comes on the heels of multiple crypto-related bills failing to overcome a procedural hurdle in the House, with 13 Republicans voting with Democrats to block the motion in a 196-223 vote.

ParadeDB takes on Elasticsearch as interest in Postgres explodes amid AI boom

techcrunch.com Rebecca Szkutak 2026-01-22 15:24:51

Open source database management system Postgres is nearly 40 years old, but has recently started seeing explosive demand due to being very well-suited for AI applications. Despite this rise in popularity, search and analytics functionality remain limited. ParadeDB is changing that. ParadeDB is an open source Postgres extension that facilitates full-text search and analytics directly in Postgres without users needing to transfer data to a separate source.

gizmodo.com Ellyn Lapointe 2026-01-25 20:00:53

Humans might not know of any intelligent beings beyond Earth, but if they exist, they might already know about us. New research shows that radar systems at commercial and military airports are inadvertently announcing our presence to any aliens with the ability to listen. Preliminary results from a study led by Ramiro Caisse Saide, an astrophysics PhD candidate at the University of Manchester, suggest extraterrestrials up to 200 light-years away could theoretically detect electromagnetic signal

Serial entrepreneur Jack Dorsey, who cofounded Twitter, Block, and Bluesky, has started yet another new app — and this one's got an embarrassing secret. As TechCrunch reports, Dorsey's new open source messaging app, Bitchat, is supposed to be decentralized, private, and secure. There's only one problem: the Bluetooth-based app, by the venture's admission, is probably lacking in that key regard.

The MacBook is one of the most powerful tools of the modern age. Most people will spend years of their lives in front of their computer. So it makes sense to have a great one.

How to Watch the Southern Delta Aquariids and Perseids Meteor Showers

If you want to get into stargazing in 2025, there’s no better place to start than viewing a meteor shower. Meteor showers, or shooting stars, happen when Earth’s orbital path crosses a path of debris left by a comet and that material burns up in the Earth’s atmosphere. Watching a meteor shower is one of the most accessible ways to engage with the night sky. The next showers of the year are the Southern Delta Aquariids—which peak for about a week at the end of July—and the Perseids—which will pe
