Things you can do with a debugger but not with print debugging

Things you can do with a debugger but not with print debugging People do or do not use debuggers for a variety of reasons. For one thing, they are hard to setup in many codebases. Second, you can’t use them when your application is running on remote environments (such as kuberenetes). So, anecdotally, I have seen way more people using Print/ log.Debug compared to a debugger. Which is a shame, because while debug logging is convenient at times, debuggers can do some things which you can’t easil

From mixers to pitch-offs — your brand event belongs at TechCrunch Disrupt 2025

Last year’s TechCrunch Disrupt Side Events drew hundreds of founders, investors, and operators after hours — from intimate roundtables to lively happy hours to full-on pitch competitions. Each event unlocked new opportunities for the hosts: investor deal flow, talent connections, and brand exposure with the startup community. This year, you can do the same. As a Side Event host during “Disrupt Week” (October 25–31), you’ll tap into an audience of 10,000+ attendees, plus the broader Bay Area tec

Here’s everything Apple didn’t announce during its ‘Awe Dropping’ event

For an event that lasted less than 1 hour and 20 minutes, Apple managed to pack quite a lot of new devices and features into its lineup. Still, some had been expecting a little bit more. Here’s what Apple decided not to include in today’s event, some of which may still come by the end of the year. AirPods Pro 3 with infrared camera sensor For the past few days, there were rumors indicating that Apple would release two AirPods Pro 3 versions: the one that was actually announced today, and an in

Did Anyone Ask for a Super Thin iPhone Air?

The star of Tuesday's "awe dropping" Apple event was undeniably the iPhone Air, a slim, much-rumored version of its new iPhone 17. It's only 5.6mm thick -- thinner than three stacked credit cards -- if you ignore the huge camera bump. But does anyone actually want a super-thin iPhone? Apple has loaded up the iPhone Air with better battery life and faster processing power via the A19 Pro chip. It's also got a 48-megapixel fusion camera and a 12-megapixel 2x telephoto camera. Apple said this is t

I Was Right Yet Again: iOS 26 Is Coming Monday, Sept. 15

Apple announced iOS 26 at its Worldwide Developers Conference in June, but it said at the time it would release the update to the general public this fall. So I looked at past Apple events in September and earlier iOS releases to predict when the company would release iOS 26. And I was right. Apple announced online that iOS 26 will be released as a free update on Monday, Sept. 15. That means everyone has less than a week until iPhones can get new features like a Liquid Glass design, call screen

SAP warns of high-severity vulnerabilities in multiple products

As hackers exploit a high-severity vulnerability in SAP’s flagship Enterprise Resource Planning software product, the software maker is warning users of more than two dozen newly detected vulnerabilities in its other widely used products, including a security flaw with a maximum-severity rating of 10. SAP on Tuesday said the highest-severity vulnerability—with a rating of 10 out of a possible 10—was found in NetWeaver, a platform that serves as the technical foundation for many of the company’s

How to watch Apple debut the iPhone 17 lineup today at its 'Awe Dropping' event

We've officially made it to iPhone season (it comes around every September), and today, Apple is finally going to showcase its latest iPhone 17 lineup. That means we'll get to separate fact from rumor once and for all. Apple has dubbed the upcoming event "Awe dropping," so we're hoping for several big announcements that'll warrant the tagline. The show starts at 1PM ET/10AM PT. If you want to tune in to hear what Tim Cook and crew have to say about the presumed iPhone 17, you can stream the sho

Hyundai’s Latest Concept Car Comes With Subtle ‘Star Wars’ References

Hyundai just previewed a new concept car at the IAA Mobility trade show in Munich, Germany, and it’s packed with subtle Star Wars nods. The EV, dubbed the Concept THREE, sports a futuristic graphite-silver exterior, yellow-tinted windows, and a moonbeam-yellow interior with purple accents. Concept THREE is Hyundai’s first compact design for its IONIQ line of EVs. Concept cars like this one often serve multiple purposes, including generating buzz, showing off a company’s latest tech, and signal

A Split-Second Hint in the iPhone Air Launch Shows Apple's Ready for the Smart Home

Apple's "awe dropping" Tuesday event has wrapped up, and we're all still taking in the new paper-thin iPhone Air line (not everyone's in awe of it) as well as the iPhone 17 Pro. But something caught my ear in the middle of the iPhone Air announcement. Along with other connectivity support, Apple made sure to add that the iPhone Air would support Thread. In a presentation where every second and word was intentional, it means a lot that the company included it. "So, what's Thread?" is probably yo

Ramp says it has hit $1B in annualized revenue

In Brief On Tuesday, Ramp answered any lingering questions as to why investors recently valued the expense management startup at $22.5 billion, just 45 days after a previous funding round valued it at $16 billion: the company says it has achieved $1 billion in annualized revenue. Annualized revenue refers to a company’s current revenue rate projected over a full year. In March, co-founder and CEO Eric Glyman told TechCrunch that Ramp had hit annualized revenue of $700 million. That’s $300 mill

No Man's Sky Players Are Competing to Create the Goofiest Spaceships Imaginable

Procedurally-generated open exploration game No Man's Sky recently got one of its biggest updates ever, a whopping nine years after it was first launched, allowing players to customize their own spaceships to a baffling level of detail — and the resulting creativity is truly out of this world. The "Voyagers" update, which rolled out late last month, adds the ability to decorate enormous "Corvette"-class ships to an unprecedented — and sometimes hilarious — degree. The update proved to be incre

Expect the iPhone 17 event to avoid Apple Intelligence promises

It’s finally the day of the Apple event, and everyone is eagerly awaiting the official launch of the iPhone 17 lineup. 9to5Mac readers are mostly power users, so it’s no surprise that the thing you’re most looking forward to is the unveiling of the iPhone 17 Pro Max – though there is also substantial interest in the all-new iPhone 17 Air. While we’re expecting a fairly packed event, there’s likely to be one significant difference from last year’s iPhone 16 launch: a conspicuous absence of Apple

Nvidia unveils new GPU designed for long-context inference

In Brief At the AI Infrastructure Summit on Tuesday, Nvidia announced a new GPU called the Rubin CPX, designed for context windows larger than 1 million tokens. Part of the chip giant’s forthcoming Rubin series, the CPX is optimized for processing large sequences of context and is meant to be used as part of a broader “disaggregated inference” infrastructure approach. For users, the result will be better performance on long-context tasks like video generation or software development. Nvidia’s

Adapting to new threats with proactive risk management

Unplanned downtime poses a major challenge for organizations, and is estimated to cost Global 2000 companies on average $200 million per year. Beyond the financial impact, it can also erode customer trust and loyalty, decrease productivity, and even result in legal or privacy issues. A 2024 ransomware attack on Change Healthcare, the medical-billing subsidiary of industry giant UnitedHealth Group—the biggest health and medical data breach in US history—exposed the data of around 190 million peo

NASA to Make Major Announcement About Martian Rock Sample on Wednesday. Here’s How to Watch

In July 2024, NASA’s Perseverance rover extracted a rock core from the edge of Neretva Vallis, a river valley cut into the Martian surface by water rushing into the Jezero Crater billions of years ago. This mysterious rock caught the attention of scientists on Earth, as its features may reveal clues about possible ancient life on the Red Planet. At 11 a.m. ET on Wednesday, September 10, NASA will host a press conference to discuss the analysis of the sample, dubbed “Sapphire Canyon,” and the su

Switch modder owes Nintendo $2 million after representing himself in court

It has often been said that the lawyer who represents himself has a fool for a client. That truism apparently extends to Switch modders as well, at least in the case of Ryan Daly. The operator of the now-defunct moddedhardware.com (archived) now owes Nintendo $2 million after a recent settlement filed in a Washington state District Court. The final judgement, which was jointly agreed to by both parties, asserts that Daly knowingly sold devices such as the MIG Switch and MIG Dumper that "are pri
