Adrian Kingsley-Hughes/ZDNET I admit it: I'm addicted to multitools. My daily carry for the past year or so has been the Gerber Dual Force, which has the most powerful pliers and best screwdriver on a multitool I've used. But the Dual Force is big and heavy, and not suited for lightweight applications like hiking.

One of Anthropic's quieter releases recently was their "Security Review," where Claude Code can identify and fix security issues in your code. But how good is it really? In my case, will it find issues with code it helped me write for my newsletter service and Chrome extension? The release states it uses a "specialized security-focused prompt that checks for common vulnerability patterns."

The Apple iPhone event is right around the corner, which means the huge tech company will finally reveal its iPhone 17 lineup. The latest iOS 26 features will come preinstalled on the new models, as well as any additional features Apple reveals at the launch event.

In fact, a recent survey of his actions claims that Trump, whose political victory was partially propelled by gargantuan gobs of cash from tech firms and their executives, has dropped a third of all investigations and enforcement actions against tech companies since taking power.
