Apple Watch Ultra and Oura Ring Jason Hiner/ZDNET Follow ZDNET: Add us as a preferred source on Google. I've been wearing an Apple Watch every day for the past decade and I've been using it to track my sleep every night since 2019. Over the past few years, I've known more and more friends, family, and colleagues opting for smart rings instead of smart watches to track their health. I've also personally tested the Oura Ring, the Samsung Galaxy Ring, and the Ultrahuman Ring Air. But eventually,

India's billion-dollar e-waste empire

In the dead of a cold December night in 2023, at a dump near Delhi, hundreds of men huddled around small bonfires, clutching paper cups of tea. They tossed plastic bags into the flames as they waited for a fleet of trucks to arrive. The trucks rolled in one by one, full of electronic marvels now reduced to e-waste: Nokia, Itel, and Samsung smartphones; Sony and LG LCD screens; Tata air conditioners; Canon and Epson printers. As the trailer gates opened at the back of one truck, Rashid Khan and

Trade in War

In World War II, Britain was fighting for its survival against German aerial bombardment. Yet Britain was importing dyes from Germany at the same time. This sounds curious, to put it mildly. How can two countries at war with each other also be trading goods? Examples of this abound, actually. Britain also traded with its enemies for almost all of World War I. India and Pakistan conducted trade with each other during the First Kashmir War, from 1947 to 1949, and during the India-Pakistan War of

Making Minecraft Spherical

Blocky Planet is a tech demo I created in the Unity game engine that attempts to map Minecraft’s cubic voxels onto a spherical planet. The planet is procedurally generated and fully destructible, allowing players to place or remove more than 20 different block types. While much of the implementation relies on common techniques you’d expect from your average Kirkland brand Minecraft clone, the spherical structure introduces a number of unique design considerations. This post will focus on these

Preserving Order in Concurrent Go Apps: Three Approaches Compared

Concurrency is one of Go’s greatest strengths, but it comes with a fundamental trade-off: when multiple goroutines process data simultaneously, the natural ordering gets scrambled. Most of the time, this is fine – unordered processing is enough, it’s faster and simpler. But sometimes, order matters. When Order Matters Here are three real-world scenarios where preserving order becomes critical: Real-time Log Enrichment: You’re processing a high-volume log stream, enriching each entry with use

Tesla Hit With Another Major Recall

Tesla is recalling 7,301 Model Y SUVs produced in 2025, following identification of a software defect in the driver’s side window’s automatic protection system. The recall, issued by Australia’s Department of Infrastructure, Transport, Regional Development, Communications, Sport and the Arts, warns that the window may close with excessive force if it fails to detect obstructions, posing a risk of injury. The latest recall is a perfect example of the dual-edge of automotive digitization, becaus
