Apple shares rise after judge rules Google can continue preload deals in antitrust case

Tim Cook, CEO of Apple Inc., during the Apple Worldwide Developers Conference at Apple Park campus in Cupertino, California, on June 9, 2025. Apple shares rose more than 3% in extended trading Tuesday after a federal judge ruled that Alphabet may continue making payments to preload Google Search onto the iPhone. Although Apple wasn't a party in the search monopoly trial, the judge was considering remedies that would bar Google from paying billions per year to Apple to be the default search eng

EU Gets Cold Feet Over Google Fine, Fears Potential Trump Backlash

The European Union has put plans to fine Google on hold. The commission in charge of doling out punishment for digital infractions is reportedly worried that fining the U.S. tech giant for allegedly abusing its dominance in online advertising could provoke U.S. President Donald Trump. Bloomberg and Reuters reported, citing unnamed sources, that E.U. officials had planned to announce the antitrust sanction on Monday; however, that deadline came and went without an announcement. The Commission h

Eye Health and Older Age: How These 6 Conditions May Become More Common

Your eyes are aging, and you probably aren't helping them, either. Whether it's staring at a screen for hours on end or spending the summer under the sun, your daily activities can really take a toll on your vision and the overall health of your eyes. As your eyes age, changes in your vision are to be expected. As the years tick by, it's common for it to get hard to see things up close, distinguish between some colors and more. Some of the problems you might encounter with your aging eyes can

The Little Book of Linear Algebra

The Little Book of Linear Algebra A concise, beginner-friendly introduction to the core ideas of linear algebra. Formats Chapter 1. Vectors 1.1 Scalars and Vectors A scalar is a single numerical quantity, most often taken from the real numbers, denoted by $\mathbb{R}$ . Scalars are the fundamental building blocks of arithmetic: they can be added, subtracted, multiplied, and, except in the case of zero, divided. In linear algebra, scalars play the role of coefficients, scaling factors, and e

Final Fantasy Tactics: Ivalice Chronicles Director Says 'That' Boss Fight Still Wrecks Him

Last week was the first time I picked up Final Fantasy Tactics since finishing it back in 1998. One infamous boss battle scarred me so badly that I never went back -- and given its reputation among fans, I know I'm not alone. So when I had the chance to talk with Kazutoyo Maehiro, part of the original dev team and now director of the upcoming remaster, Final Fantasy Tactics: Ivalice Chronicles, I jumped at it. I needed to know why they made that one fight so brutal. My question for Maehiro: "Ba

Git for Music – Using Version Control for Music Production (2023)

last updated on 6 Apr 2024 Being both a musician and a software engineer, I always felt that these two areas are almost completely separated. My developer skill-set seemed to have little to no use for my work as a musician. Which is a pity considering how cool it would be if there was some kind of a sinergy across these two sides of my life. Recently, though, I have found a useful possibility to utilize something I previously used solely for my development work, namely, git, the version contro

Lenovo Legion Go 2 leak hints at promising upgrades with a hefty price bump

X / Evan Blass TL;DR Lenovo’s upcoming Legion Go 2 has been leaked entirely. The leak gives us a peak at the changed design, additional buttons, and the improved ventilation on the Legion Go 2. The Legion Go 2 is expected to launch later this week at IFA trade show in Berlin. Lenovo’s next generation of its handheld gaming PC has been highly rumored for a while. The company is likely to launch the updated Legion Go 2 at the IFA trade show this week, and we have started to witness full-blown

Jujutsu for everyone

This is a tutorial for the Jujutsu version control system. It requires no previous experience with Git or any other version control system. At the time of writing, most Jujutsu tutorials are targeted at experienced Git users, teaching them how to transfer their existing Git skills over to Jujutsu. This tutorial is my attempt to fill the void of beginner learning material for Jujutsu. If you are already experienced with Git, I recommend Steve Klabnik's tutorial instead of this one.

“This telegram must be closely paraphrased before being communicated to anyone”

It appears that it was US military communications doctrine to not send the exact same message twice using different encryption ("none" counting as one type of encryption), and the term of art for changing a message to avoid that was indeed "paraphrase". I managed to dig up a US Army document on Cryptology from roughly that era that appears to discuss paraphrasing. The document in question is Department of the Army Technical Manual TM 32-220(pdf), dated 1950, titled "BASIC CRYPTOGRAPHY". It appa

Extreme Heat Makes Your Body Age Faster

It is well known that heat causes exhaustion in the body due to dehydration. But aging? A recent study concluded that extreme heat accelerates the aging of the human body, a worrying fact given the increasing frequency of heat waves due to climate change. The researchers are not talking about the effects of solar radiation on the skin, but biological aging. Unlike chronological age—that answer that you give when asked how old you are—your biological age reflects how well your cells, tissues, a

Anduril: Amusement Park for Engineers

This article features first-ever photos taken from inside Anduril’s R&D facilities in Costa Mesa, California. All photos by Ryan Young. On a Saturday afternoon in April 2024, I was on the rooftop pool deck of a Marriott hotel, setting up radar equipment aimed above the Hollywood Hills in Burbank, California. My five-year-old son, still damp from swimming, darted around as I calibrated the system. “What are you doing?” he asked, touching the electronics with wet hands. “Tracking … flying o

It’s time for Apple to revive one of its discontinued iPad accessories

A few years ago, Apple used to have a much simpler iPad keyboard lineup. It just offered a Smart Keyboard for each of their iPad models, and they all essentially served as the same product. Nowadays, after the introduction of trackpad support in iPadOS and the Magic Keyboard, everything is unnecessarily convoluted – with each iPad model having a slightly different Magic Keyboard and varying features. While the keyboard lineup is a mess, that’s not what I take issue with right now – it’s the fac

Your Body Ages Faster Because of Extreme Heat

Taco Bell is having second thoughts about relying on AI at the drive-through

In Brief Taco Bell’s chief digital officer says the company is having an “active conversation” about when to use and not to use AI. The company has apparently rolled out voice AI-powered ordering at more than 500 drive-throughs, leading to unflattering viral moments like someone ordering 18,000 water cups in order to “bypass” the AI and get connected to a human server. Chief Digital and Technology Officer Dane Matthews told The Wall Street Journal that even he has mixed experiences with techn

The fight against labeling long-term streaming rentals as “purchases” you “buy”

Words have meaning. Proper word selection is integral to strong communication, whether it's about relaying one’s feelings to another or explaining the terms of a deal, agreement, or transaction. Language can be confusing, but typically when something is available to "buy," ownership of that good or access to that service is offered in exchange for money. That’s not really the case, though, when it comes to digital content. Often, streaming services like Amazon Prime Video offer customers the o

‘The Goonies 2’ Is Sailing Closer to Reality

Goonies never say die, and apparently, neither do sequels. Earlier this year, news broke that after decades of back-and-forth about a follow-up to the fan-favorite 1985 film, The Goonies, Warner Bros. had hired a writer to pen a script. Now, the writer has provided an update that makes it seem like the sequel is getting closer to actually happening. Speaking to Deadline at the Venice Film Festival, Goonies 2 writer Potsy Ponciroli provided the following update. “I have turned in a first draft,

Usual ‘Gremlins’ Rules Don’t Apply With This Precious Lego Gizmo

It’s not easy to make Lego bricks cute. As fun as they can be, there’s no getting away from the fact that they’re hard, plastic pieces. And yet, the team there has somehow done the impossible. They’ve created an official set from the 1984 classic Gremlins of the adorable Gizmo and, in the process, made Lego absolutely precious. Gizmo, which was a Lego Ideas contest winner last year, is now available for pre-order for Lego Insiders with a general on-sale date of October 1. And it truly is an ado

700-piece Lego G3 iMac design faces long-shot odds to get made, but I still want one

I don't usually get too excited about user-submitted designs on the Lego Ideas website, especially when those ideas would require negotiating a license with another company—user-generated designs need to reach 10,000 supporters before Lego considers them for production, two pretty high bars to clear even without factoring in some other brand's conditions and requests. But I'm both intrigued and impressed by this Lego version of Apple's old Bondi Blue G3 iMac that has been making the rounds toda
