Joe Maring / Android Authority It’s a damn good time right now to be a smartwatch fan. Samsung’s Galaxy Watch 8 series recently launched, the Pixel Watch 4 is right around the corner, Wear OS 6 is chock-full of impressive changes, and Gemini has finally replaced Google Assistant on our wrists.

Google will pay Australia $36 million over anticompetitive search deal with mobile carriers

engadget.com Unknown 2025-11-23 14:09:56

Google has agreed to pay a fine of $55 million AUD ($36 million USD) for anticompetitive practices, the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) announced. It stems from deals Google undertook with Australian telecommunications companies Telstra and Optus to only pre-install Google Search. The key there is that these companies couldn't install any other search engine. Telstra and Optus then got a share of Google's ad revenue from customers using Google search on their respective An

Your MCP Doesn’t Need 30 Tools: It Needs Code I wrote a while back about why code performs better than MCP (Model Context Protocol) for some tasks. In particular, I pointed out that if you have command line tools available, agentic coding tools seem very happy to use those.

Cooking can be intimidating. The process of shopping, prepping, cooking and, ultimately, tasting the fruits of your labor taps into a side of the brain that not many people can or want to explore. But not even the pros get it right all the time, as the kitchen provides a safe space to experiment, fail and -- best of all -- learn so that desired outcomes can be improved upon and new recipes can be added to the ever-growing arsenal.

What Do Kids Actually Think About AI?

wired.com Charley Locke 2025-11-23 12:00:00

Ask an adult what they think about kids and AI, and expect to hear a strong opinion. Parents, politicians, experts—everyone has a take on whether young people should use AI, how to moderate their exposure, and how it’s changing the ways they think and communicate. Many of these opinions revolve around education. Adults fret that kids will turn ChatGPT into a research bot, paper writer, or math problem solver.

One day last spring, in a high school classroom in Texas, students were arguing about who to kill off first. It was a thought experiment with a sci-fi premise: A global zombie outbreak has decimated major cities. One hundred frozen embryos meant to reboot humanity are safe in a bomb shelter, but the intended adult caretakers never made it. Instead, 12 random civilians stumbled in.

What Is the Electric Constant and Why Should You Care?

It's fun to think about the fundamental physical constants. These are special values used in our models of the physical universe. They include things like the speed of light, the gravitational constant, and Planck’s constant, and they’re “fundamental” in the sense that we can't derive them theoretically, we can only measure them. We use these in solving physics problems all the time, so it’s easy to take them for granted. But why are there such numbers in nature, and why do they just happen to
