AirTag 2: Here’s what we’re expecting

9to5mac.com Michael Burkhardt 2026-03-04 15:22:43

Apple has long wrapped up its spring releases, including the new iPhone 16e, M4 MacBook Air, M3 iPad Air, and A16 iPad. While the iPhone 17 lineup will certainly be the star of the show for this fall’s hardware releases, there’s something a bit unique coming later this year: AirTag 2. Why AirTag 2 Despite the fact that it sounds like an uninteresting refresh, AirTag 2 will actually pack a number of relatively important upgrades for the everyday user.

These are the closest-ever images of the sun from Parker Solar Probe's historic flyby

engadget.com Unknown 2026-03-04 09:55:49

NASA's Parker Solar Probe made history with the closest-ever approach to the sun last December, and we're finally getting a look at some of the images it captured. The space agency released a timelapse of observations made using Parker's Wide-Field Imager for Solar Probe (WISPR) while it passed through the sun's corona (the outer atmosphere) on December 25, 2024, revealing up close how solar wind acts soon after it's released. The probe captured these images at just 3.8 million miles from the so

Black hole merger challenges our understanding of black hole formation

news.ycombinator.com Gayoung Lee 2026-03-04 12:38:20

Gravitational waves—ripples in space-time caused by violent cosmic events—travel at the speed of light in every direction, eventually fading out like ripples in water. But some events are so destructive and extreme that they create disturbances in spacetime more like powerful waves than small ripples, with enough energy to reach our own detectors here on Earth. Today, the LIGO Collaboration announced the detection of the most colossal black hole merger known to date, the final product of which

The James Webb Space Telescope is pictured here before being folded up for launch. Credit: NASA Key Takeaways: NASA's Hubble and James Webb telescopes face operational cuts due to budget limitations. Reduced funding may lead to fewer available telescope modes and less user support. Hubble's budget has remained flat for a decade, decreasing its purchasing power. “It’s fewer people, really,” said Neill Reid.

The Scourge of Arial (2001)

Arial is everywhere. If you don’t know what it is, you don’t use a modern personal computer. Arial is a font that is familiar to anyone who uses Microsoft products, whether on a PC or a Mac. It has spread like a virus through the typographic landscape and illustrates the pervasiveness of Microsoft’s influence in the world. Arial’s ubiquity is not due to its beauty. It’s actually rather homely. Not that homeliness is necessarily a bad thing for a typeface. With typefaces, character and history a

Hypercapitalism and the AI talent wars

Meta’s multi-hundred million dollar comp offers and Google’s multi-billion dollar Character AI and Windsurf deals signal that we are in a crazy AI talent bubble. The talent mania could fizzle out as the winners and losers of the AI war emerge, but it represents a new normal for the foreseeable future. If the top 1% of companies drive the majority of VC returns, why shouldn’t the same apply to talent? Our natural egalitarian bias makes this unpalatable to accept, but the 10x engineer meme doesn’

The underground cathedral protecting Tokyo from floods (2018)

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2026-02-28 05:30:42

When one of these rivers overflows, the water falls to one of five enormous 70-meter tall cylindrical tanks spread across the Channel’s length. Each of these tanks is big enough to accommodate a space shuttle or the Statue of Liberty and they are interconnected through a 6.3km long network of underground tunnels. As the water approaches the Edo River, the ‘floodwater cathedral’ Tortajada visited reduces its flow, so the pumps can push it to the river.
