techcrunch.com Aria Alamalhodaei 2025-10-02 20:42:12

Rainmaker Technology’s bid to deploy cloud-seeding flares on small drones is being met by resistance from the airline pilots union, which has urged the Federal Aviation Administration to consider denying the startup’s request unless it meets stricter safety guidelines. The Federal Aviation Administration’s decision will signal how the regulator views weather-modification by unmanned aerial systems going forward. Rainmaker’s bet on small drones hangs in the balance.

When a legal takedown request arrives, whether it’s about copyright, censorship, privacy, or something more vague, how a Free and Open Source Software (FOSS) project responds can make all the difference. Handled well, a takedown request can be a manageable administrative step. Handled poorly, it can cause panic, disrupt infrastructure, or even put contributors at legal risk.

Encyclopedia Britannica Wants Perplexity to Stop Using Its Logos When AI Makes Stuff Up

cnet.com See Full Bio 2025-10-03 08:20:55

Merriam-Webster's dictionary defines the verb plagiarize as "to steal and pass off (the ideas or words of another) as one's own: use (another's production) without crediting the source." And that's exactly what its parent company, Encyclopedia Britannica, is alleging the AI company Perplexity did with its AI answers engine, according to a complaint filed Thursday in the US District Court for the Southern District of New York.

I don't like curved displays

I don't like curved displays The vast majority of media uses rectilinear lenses, where straight lines in 3D remain straight in a 2D image: Each light ray lands on a flat rectangle that lies between the viewpoint and the light source, so viewing the image on a flat screen looks exactly the same as how it originally appeared. A curved screen won't do that — straight lines are no longer straight!
