Best travel VPNs 2025: Expert-tested for streaming and bypassing country blocks

A virtual private network (VPN) can keep your data safe, mask your online activities, and provide you with protection while you're away from home. Trusted VPNs encrypt and route your traffic through VPN networks, reducing the risk of internet protocol (IP) address monitoring, tracking, and data theft. You should always use a VPN when you travel, especially when relying on unknown Wi-Fi connections, as it's impossible to know what cyb

This development was disclosed on OpenAI’s website in a list of what are called sub-processors, or companies that handle or process user data on OpenAI’s behalf. For everyday users, it may not seem like a big deal. But behind the scenes, it is a major shift. OpenAI, which is backed by Microsoft, has

‘Star Trek: Strange New Worlds’ Exec Producer Confirms Identity of Rhys Darby’s Character

gizmodo.com Cheryl Eddy 2026-01-15 06:30:16

It’s very common for TV cast and crew to do spoiler-y interviews that run after a certain episode airs to address standout moments. Andor did it after Bix’s big shocker; The Last of Us did it after Joel’s big shocker; the Severance gang did it pretty much weekly throughout season two’s many big shockers.

So, you’re driving a car at half the speed of light. (Both hands on the wheel, please.) You turn on the headlights. How fast would you see this light traveling? What about a person standing by the road? Would they see the light beam moving at 1.5 times the speed of light? But that’s impossible, right? Nothing is faster than light. Yes, it seems tricky.

Extending That XOR Trick to Billions of Rows

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2026-01-12 02:15:41

Can we extend the XOR trick for finding one or two missing numbers in a list to finding thousands of missing IDs in a billion-row table? Yes, we can! This is possible using a data structure called an Invertible Bloom Filter (IBF) that compares two sets with space complexity based only on the size of the difference. Using a generalization of the XOR trick [1], all the values that are identical cancel out, so the size of this data structure depends only on the size of the difference. Most explan

You won’t find the term “Wi-Fi” anywhere in the text of President Donald Trump’s One Big Beautiful Bill, but a provision authorizing the FCC to auction off spectrum could seriously impact speeds on newer Wi-Fi routers. Every wireless device, from garage door openers to baby monitors, relies on the electromagnetic spectrum to work.
