5 apps I recommend to every savvy investor

Rita El Khoury / Android Authority I’m really into finance and have been investing for a long time. From stocks and crypto to swing trading and holding, I’ve done it all.

Rocket Report: SpaceX’s dustup on the border; Northrop has a nozzle problem

Welcome to Edition 7.50 of the Rocket Report! We're nearly halfway through the year, and it seems like a good time to look back on the past six months. What has been most surprising to me in the world of rockets? First, I didn't expect SpaceX to have this much trouble with Starship Version 2.

PJ5 TTL CPU

Well, we did it… we cracked 4MIPS on our TTL CPU. I have to admit I’m both relieved and surprised. The key parts to achieving this was to decrease the latency for the instruction decode and also the flag register writing. The time to decode an instruction, perform a bit of math and then write to the flags was at around 270nS. With the changes we made, the instruction decode had a radical reworking and the flag writing had some big changes as well, means we go this down to under 200nS. Which m

The 46 Best Shows on Hulu Right Now (July 2025)

While Netflix seemingly led the way for other streaming networks to create compelling original programming, Hulu actually beat them all to the punch. In 2011, a year before Netflix’s Lilyhammer and two years before the arrival of House of Cards, the burgeoning streamer premiered The Morning After, a pop-culture-focused news show that ran for 800 episodes over three years. Hulu has continued to make TV history in the years since, most notably in 2017 when it became the first streamer to win an E

Tim Sweeney slams Apple’s ‘unlawful’ EU App Store changes

Sweeney says new terms are ‘blatantly unlawful’ and ‘a mockery of fair competition’ In a post on X, Sweeney said Apple’s latest DMA update is “blatantly unlawful in both Europe and the United S

NASA tested a new SLS booster that may never fly, and the end of it blew off

NASA's Space Launch System appears to have a finite shelf life. The Trump administration wants to cancel it after just three launches, while the preliminary text of a bill making its way through Congress would extend it to five flights. But chances are low the Space Launch System will making it to nine flights, and if it does, it's questionable if it would reach that point before 2040. The SLS rocket is a core piece of NASA's plan to return US astronauts to the Moon under the Artemis program, b

Broken by Design: Systemd

Broken by design: systemd 09 Feb 2014 19:56:09 GMT Recently the topic of systemd has come up quite a bit in various communities in which I'm involved, including the musl IRC channel and on the Busybox mailing list. While the attitude towards systemd in these communities is largely negative, much of what I've seen has been either dismissable by folks in different circles as mere conservatism, or tempered by an idea that despite its flaws, "the design is sound".
