LayerX uses AI to cut enterprise back-office workload, scores $100M in Series B

techcrunch.com Kate Park 2025-10-22 19:00:00

Aging demographics, labor shortages, the adoption of GenAI, and the 2023 implementation of e-invoicing are driving companies to automate finance, tax, procurement, and HR in Japan. Yet only 16% of digital transformations succeed, and that’s only 4–11% in traditional industries. The main barriers? Weak leadership commitment, a rigid culture, and a lack of digital talent.

Desert Graves (2021)

Arizona is an interesting place. Even today, there is much remote country, and as I’ve wandered through its deserts and forests (yes, we have forests!), I have been surprised by how many times I’ve come across cemeteries and graves in the most out-of-the-way and unexpected places. I did a survey of place names on Arizona’s topographical maps and found a total of 147 named cemeteries, but I also found 9 places where there was just a “grave” or “graves” shown (I know there are many more than that,

Vibration Plates: Can You Use Them to Lose Weight, Build Muscle and Get Stronger?

Vibration plates are all the rage right now. They claim to help you lose weight or build muscle -- all while standing on the vibrating surface. But is this for real? Does standing on a shaking platform really help you get stronger or shed pounds, or is it just another short-lived trend? To find out, we talked to personal trainers and other fitness experts.

Making Minecraft Spherical

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-10-20 16:12:34

Blocky Planet is a tech demo I created in the Unity game engine that attempts to map Minecraft’s cubic voxels onto a spherical planet. The planet is procedurally generated and fully destructible, allowing players to place or remove more than 20 different block types. While much of the implementation relies on common techniques you’d expect from your average Kirkland brand Minecraft clone, the spherical structure introduces a number of unique design considerations.

The best smart home gadgets for 2025

Our favorite Google-powered smart display is the second-generation Nest Hub. It has a 7-inch screen, which makes it just big enough to fit in most rooms in the house. The size also makes it work well as a digital photo frame. You can set it up to pull in pictures of friends and family from your Google Photos library, and there’s a smart algorithm that automatically uses the best shots while avoiding the blurry ones. As you might expect, you can also use the display to watch YouTube, Netflix and

Enforcing Australia's social media ban on kids is possible but contains risks, report says

Enforcing Australia's social media ban on kids is possible but contains risks, report says Though the move is popular with many parents, experts have raised concerns over data privacy and the accuracy of age verification technology. Under the new laws, platforms must take "reasonable steps" to prevent Australian children from creating accounts on their sites, and deactivate existing ones.

The Pixel 10 Pro is technically cheaper than the Pixel 10, at least for me

Rita El Khoury / Android Authority I’m in the market for a new phone, and while I told myself I wouldn’t spend more than $500 on it, I’m a tech nerd and have to say that the latest Pixels look very appealing. I prefer smaller phones, and the entry-level Pixel 10 has all the features I want and need, and then some. I don’t see myself spending an extra $200 on the similarly sized Pro model, as the price difference isn’t worth it for me. But here’s the kicker: The Pixel 10 Pro is actually cheaper

Now’s a great time for Apple to bring back this long-removed iMac feature

A while ago, Apple used to include a software feature with macOS on older iMac models. It was called Target Display Mode, and it allowed you to turn an iMac into an external display once your iMac was too dated to be a usable computer. The company got rid of it with the introduction of the 5K iMac due to technical limitations at the time – though said limitations no longer pose a challenge.

He later called this idea the butterfly effect to communicate that small changes in initial conditions, like a butterfly flapping its wings in Nepal, could produce wildly different outcomes, like rain in New York.
