Android will soon run Linux apps better, and that’s great for Google’s PC plans

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-10-09 19:30:39

Mishaal Rahman / Android Authority TL;DR Google is working to improve the performance of graphical Linux apps on Android, which currently run slowly using inefficient CPU-based rendering. This will be achieved by implementing gfxstream, a technology that forwards graphics API calls to the host’s GPU for near-native performance. Evidence for this was found in a hidden “Graphics Acceleration” setting in the Terminal app that enables a new “GPU-accelerated renderer.” Earlier this year, Google i

The portable battery startup had raised more than $110 million in a bid to replace diesel generators at festivals and construction sites, but even that wasn’t enough to get it through the valley of death.

Better health conversations: Research on a "wayfinding" AI agent based on Gemini

The ability to find clear, relevant, and personalized health information is a cornerstone of empowerment for medical patients. Yet, navigating the world of online health information is often a confusing, overwhelming, and impersonal experience. We are met with a flood of generic information that does not account for our unique context, and it can be difficult to know what details are relevant. Large language models (LLMs) have the potential to make this information more accessible and tailored.

Fast UDP I/O for Firefox in Rust

news.ycombinator.com Max Inden 2025-10-09 23:14:44

Around 20% of Firefox’s HTTP traffic today uses HTTP/3, which runs over QUIC, which in turn runs over UDP. This translates to substantial UDP I/O activity. Firefox uses NSPR for most of its network I/O. When it comes to UDP I/O, NSPR only offers a limited set of dated APIs, most relevant here PR_SendTo and PR_RecvFrom , wrappers around POSIX’s sendto and recvfrom . The N in NSPR stands for Netscape, giving you a hint of its age. Operating systems have evolved since. Many offer multi-message AP

Context is the bottleneck for coding agents now

Intelligence is rapidly improving with each model release. Just last week it was announced that OpenAI got a perfect score on the 2025 ICPC programming contest, beating every single human contestant. They achieved this using a version (presumably a very high compute version, but still) of their publicly available GPT-5 model. And yet, coding agents are nowhere near capable of replacing software developers. Why is that? I’m going to argue that the limiting factor is no longer raw intelligence,
