Nonprofit search engine Ecosia offers $0 for control of Chrome

engadget.com Unknown 2025-11-15 10:21:58

Germany-based search engine and browser nonprofit Ecosia is the latest party to make an offer for Google's Chrome. Questions about Chrome's fate have been swirling since the news that the Department of Justice would push for Google to sell the browser after the ruling that the company's search engine business constituted a monopoly. Although Google is planning to appeal the decision, that hasn't stopped other big tech businesses from pitching themselves as potential owners of Chrome. Ecosia's p

I forced every engineer to take sales calls and they rewrote our platform

Our senior DevOps engineer thought I'd lost my mind. He didn't join a startup to do sales. So he promised me 5 calls and I guaranteed he'd never have to do it again. It was a bit of a back-and-forth but I strongly believe it fundamentally changed how we build products. When I sat in on the calls, I observed a few things: - Seeing them explain why our competitor's platform was "too complex for non-technical users." - Seeing them assure the customer that the continuous monitoring was actually w

BBC Boss Promises ‘Doctor Who’ Will Carry On—With or Without Disney

gizmodo.com Cheryl Eddy 2025-11-15 10:45:40

The end of Ncuti Gatwa‘s run as Doctor Who was confusing for multiple reasons. But beyond the “Wait, what’s Billie Piper doing here?” of that regeneration scene is a larger question about the show’s future. With no additional seasons scheduled, no updates on the BBC-Disney partnership that powered the Fifteenth Doctor’s seasons, and the most recent showrunner Russell T Davies distancing himself from any Who-related inquiries, fans have been left wondering if, not when, the show will return.

Brace yourselves, because hundreds of thousands of user conversations with Elon Musk's notoriously foul-mouthed Grok chatbot have hit the internet, Forbes reports — and some of them get into absolutely unholy territory. The more than 370,000 chats were made public after users clicked a "share" button that created a link to their chatbot convos, unaware that by doing so, it was allowing them to be indexed by search engines like Google and Bing.
