The Titanic's Best Lifeboat

Everyone grows up learning the same story about the RMS Titanic, that when the ship set out on its maiden voyage in 1912, the owners and authorities, confident that the ship was unsinkable, did not require it to carry a full complement of lifeboats. So when the Titanic sank in the frigid waters of the North Atlantic, more than half of the people on board died for lack of lifeboat space. But the more you learn about the history of lifeboats and how they worked, the more you realize that the stand

Figma files for IPO on NYSE, plans to 'take big swings' with acquisitions

Dylan Field, co-founder and CEO of Figma, appears at the Bloomberg Technology Summit in San Francisco on May 9, 2024. Design software company Figma filed for an IPO on Tuesday, and plans to trade on the New York Stock Exchange under ticker symbol "FIG." The offering would be one of the hotly anticipated IPOs in recent years given Figma's growth rate and its high private market valuation. In late 2023, a $20 billion acquisition agreement with Adobe was scrapped due to regulatory concerns in the

Android users can finally edit messages sent to iPhones, but there’s a catch

Ryan Haines / Android Authority TL;DR Google is finally starting to roll out the ability for Android users to edit RCS messages sent to iPhones, a feature previously unavailable cross-platform. Made possible by the new Universal Profile 3.0 specification, users can long-press a sent message to edit and resend it within a 15-minute window. The feature is in limited testing and isn’t perfect yet, as edited texts currently appear as a new message on iPhones and iPhones can’t edit messages sent t

The biggest iPhone 17 mystery left could swing a lot of upgrade decisions

Apple’s iPhone 17 lineup will be unveiled just two months from now, and while most features of the new models have already leaked, there’s at least one big question mark that could swing a lot of upgrade decisions: ProMotion. Which iPhone 17 models will support ProMotion? Back in 2022, Apple debuted a big display upgrade for certain iPhone models. ProMotion enabled the iPhone’s first always-on display, and a much-improved 120Hz high refresh rate. For three years running, ProMotion has been ex

Nothing Phone 3 arrives July 15 with a tiny dot matrix rear display

Nothing, a startup from OnePlus co-founder Carl Pei, has announced its first flagship phone since 2023. The company bills its new Nothing Phone 3 as a "true flagship" device, but it doesn't have the absolute best hardware you can get in a mobile device. Neither does it have the highest price, clocking in at a mere $799. That's shaping up to be a good value, but it's also the highest price yet for a Nothing phone. A few weeks back, Nothing teased the end of its trademark Glyph interface. Indeed,

1KB JavaScript Demoscene Challenge Just Launched

I just launched JS1024 — a creative coding challenge with a strict limit: 1024 bytes of JavaScript. No libraries. No frameworks. Just raw code.

What should a native DOM templating API look like?

If you read my previous post, The time is right for a DOM templating API, you might be wondering what such an API would look like. Let's dive into that question now. What are we building? First, let's clarify what we're trying to design here, because when people hear the abstract template API idea described, before there's a concrete proposal or examples, they can sometimes think of very different things. In webcomponents/1069 I propose that we add a "declarative JavaScript templating API"

Bay Area commuters get free rides Tuesday morning due to Clipper card outage

Commuters in and around San Francisco rode into work for free on Tuesday morning due to an outage in the Clipper card system, which is used to handle payments for train, bus and ferry rides.

New ‘MacBook’ rumor sounds like Apple’s taking the iPad approach

Apple is rumored to be making a new ‘MacBook’ device for launch later this year or in early 2026. And based on the early details, it sounds a lot like Apple’s taking the iPad approach with its new MacBook and the Mac line as a whole. Rumored ’MacBook’ will be cheaper, use iPhone chip, more Apple tends to develop products with years-long timelines, and thanks to leaks, it’s rare for a product to entirely surprise. But yesterday a new rumor of a cheaper ‘MacBook’ suggests the device will launch

I Found the Best Samsung Galaxy Unpacked Rumors for the Fold 7, Flip 7 and Watch 8

Samsung's Galaxy Unpacked event is a week away and I expect to see new foldable phones such as the Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Z Flip 7 as well as new Galaxy Watches. Remember when July was a quiet month for tech? Not anymore. Samsung was one of the first companies to launch a foldable phone, but over the past few years, competitors including Motorola and Google (as well as Chinese brands such as Honor, Oppo and Xiaomi) have released their own flips and folds that improve or solve many of the shortcomi

The eight reasons people upgrade Mac or PC, as shipments surge

A new market intelligence report lists the eight reasons people opt to upgrade Mac or PC, divided into three categories. It also reveals that Mac shipments grew faster than any PC brand in the first quarter of the year, with year–on–year growth of almost 29% … Canalys measures shipments rather than sales. These are often closely related, but there are a number of ways in which they may differ. In this case, the market intelligence firm says that concerns about tariffs have led resellers to im

Google Keep no longer supports the Apple Watch

Google has rolled out the latest version of Keep and, as 9to5Google has noticed, it no longer supports the Apple Watch. Its iTunes listing now only shows what the note-taking app would look like for iPhones and iPads. Google made its Keep app compatible with Apple Watches back in 2019 when its apps made a return on the wearable after over a year of absence. It hasn't had a meaningful update for the device since then, but it worked just fine. Users who rely on Keep across iOS and Android for, sa

Apple Should Steal These Galaxy S25 Edge Features for a Thin iPhone

Tech companies are known for, shall we say, "borrowing" features from each other. Any time Apple or Samsung release a new phone or software update, you can be sure arguments over who did it first, or better, will ensue among hardcore fans. So, as Apple reportedly plans to debut a thinner version of the iPhone 17 this fall, it might look to competitors to see what resonates with consumers. And a few features on the Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge are on my wishlist for the rumored iPhone 17 Air. Reports

These Rumored iPhone 17 Pro Max Features Make Me Want It Now

I've never been one to track rumors of upcoming iPhone models, even as I've followed Apple's mobile phone adventure from the beginning (yep, I was in the room where it started). Why chase today's speculation when we'll all find out what's coming during the new iPhone announcements in September? But that's the catch, isn't it? September is suddenly not so far away, which means now is the time when people start thinking about fall budgets and whether the iPhone they've been holding onto can make

The best iPad to buy

There are no bad iPads. That’s the best news about Apple’s tablet lineup: 15 years after Steve Jobs first debuted the device, the iPad is the best tablet on the market, and it’s not particularly close.

That’s one easy answer to your question: yes, if you want a tablet you should buy an iPad. Even last year’s iPad, or
