After all the new Pixel 10 phones — expect to hear our review verdicts soon — we had time to take a closer look at the AI-centric software features Google often excels at.

The Physics of Parabolic Microphones: Frequency Dependence of Gain

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-10-30 10:42:10

Introduction Parabolic microphones are known for their extreme sensitivity, and the origin of their acuity isn’t difficult to guess. It is the most obvious thing about them, which can also make them a liability for field use, namely, their considerable size. Just as a large amount of weak light is captured by a telescope’s parabolic mirror and made amenable to viewing with the much smaller human eye, so too are faint sounds harvested with a reflecting dish that far exceeds the dimensions of our

Capture Checking in Scala

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-10-30 11:22:15

Hands on Capture Checking Introduction I gave a live coding session on capture checking at Scala Days 2025. Let’s be honest: it was essentially a failure, mostly because I have very little live coding experience and woefully underestimated how long it’d take to go through the material. I was stopped maybe 10% in, much to my annoyance and that of Martin Odersky, who’d kindly agreed to be there and help with the questions I was likely to get. This article is a form of apology for my failure: at

Scientist Says Mysterious Object Approaching Earth May Be Alien Artifact

futurism.com Unknown 2025-10-31 17:22:19

Mundane wayward space snowball, or extraterrestrial visitor? Astronomers believe that our solar system's latest and only third ever confirmed interstellar visitor, 3I/ATLAS, is almost certainly a comet. But lingering questions about the object means it's not yet an open and shut case. Amid that uncertainty, famed Harvard astronomer Avi Loeb is pushing the possibility that the interstellar interloper is an "extraterrestrial artifact" — perhaps even an "alien mothership" — here to menace or obse

Though Black Mirror: Bandersnatch was removed from Netflix earlier this year as part of the streamer’s pivot away from interactive programming, there may be yet another chance to choose Stefan Butler’s ’80s video game creation adventure anew. According to Black Mirror creator Charlie Brooker, a comeback may be on the horizon. Speaking to the Hollywood Reporter, Brooker was asked about rumblings that Bandersnatch may return to Netflix soon, perhaps classified as a game this time around. “Report

Intel says Trump deal has risks for shareholders, international sales

cnbc.com Chris Eudaily 2025-11-01 22:52:37

Intel on Monday warned of "adverse reactions" from investors, employees and others to the Trump administration taking a 10% stake in the company, in a filing citing risks involved with the deal. A key concern area is international sales, with 76% of Intel's revenue in its last fiscal year coming from outside the U.S., according to the filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The company had $53.1 billion in revenue for fiscal year 2024, down 2% from the year prior. For Intel's inter

Former Meta exec Nick Clegg offers careful criticism of ‘cloyingly conformist’ Silicon Valley

techcrunch.com Anthony Ha 2025-11-02 11:32:56

In Brief Meta’s former policy chief Nick Clegg seems to be walking a tightrope as he promotes his upcoming book, “How to Save the Internet.” Unlike certain other Meta employee memoirs, “How to Save the Internet” doesn’t sound like a tell-all or a scathing critique. And in an interview with the Guardian, Clegg (who previously led the U.K.’s Liberal Democrats) seems to distance himself from Silicon Valley without quite disavowing his former employer. “I really do believe that, despite its imper

You can't grow cool-climate plants in hot climates

news.ycombinator.com Joey Santore 2025-10-30 04:38:00

Since moving to Deep South Texas 4 years ago I've come to realize that many plants I used to love growing in the cool mild maritime climate of the SF bay area are impossible to grow where I live. This is not just because of the high daytime heat. It's not as simple as that. Specifically, it is the high heat during the night (and those warm nights are a direct result of the humidity) that causes cool-climate and cool-season plants to eventually die here.
