The Morning After: Meta's Ray-Ban Display is the closest thing yet to true smart glasses

Revealed at Meta’s Connect 2025 conference, the Ray-Ban Display has a small, integrated display on the right lens, designed for quick, discreet glances at notifications, directions and even video calls. The clever part is its subtlety; to an onlooker, you’re just wearing a pair of Ray-Bans, not accessing a tiny screen with your peripheral vision. (Although you will appear to offer multiple pensive stares into the middle-distance) Paired with a Meta Neural Band, which you wear on your wrist, the

Ask HN: Generalists, when do you say "I know enough" about any particular topic?

The idea is generalists know a lot about everything and when to pass it off to a subject matter expert. In 2025, with everything in tech changing by the minute, I’m realizing I need to set boundaries about how deep I go on any particular topic. But I’m unsure how. Particularly if I don’t want to get left behind as things continue to evolve. Curious how other folks approach this?

The Morning After: reMarkable’s new e-ink device is the size of a notepad

reMarkable is making a move away from its giant e-ink slate. The new Paper Pro Move is a smaller iteration with a 7.3-inch display the same size as a reporter’s notepad. The idea is an eink device you can write and edit on while on the move. Hence the name. Engadget There are some drawbacks, however. With the Move, the only way to write and edit typed text is with the on-screen keyboard. Bigger reMarkable devices can connect to a companion keyboard. Engadget’s Daniel Cooper spent some time wit

Posts from this author will be added to your daily email digest and your homepage feed.

Google has slightly undersold the feature with the name “Scroll and translate.” In fact, it will

Another YC company was acquihired today by OpenAI

I'm excited to announce that we're joining OpenAI’s Codex team! When we started out, Xcode had no AI. Building a "Cursor for Xcode" sounded crazy, but we managed to do it anyway. And, over time, we built the best coding agent for iOS & MacOS apps. I'm extremely proud of what we accomplished with Alex. Seeing people build software with our work was surreal. It is an honor to continue that work at a much bigger scale at OpenAI, along with the incredibly talented Codex team. Our mission is to hel

AOL Will Pull the Plug on Dial-Up Internet, 34 Years After Its Launch

Like TV screen static, a VHS tape rewinding, or a butter churn, the grating sound of AOL dial-up Internet will also soon be a thing of the past. As simply stated on its support website, "Dial-up Internet to be discontinued." The service will end Sept. 30 2025, at which point, "this service and the associated software, the AOL Dialer software and AOL Shield browser, which are optimized for older operating systems and dial-up internet connections, will be discontinued." That's not good news for

AOL to discontinue dial-up internet

AOL announced that its dial-up internet service will be discontinued next month. If this is how you learned that AOL’s dial-up still exists — presumably you read this on a broadband internet connection — you’re not alone. The service, seen by many as a relic of the early days of the internet, will be discontinued Sept. 30 along with its associated software, the company said. AOL made the announcement quietly via a statement on its help portal on Friday: “AOL routinely evaluates its products an

The curious case of Russia’s charm offensive with NASA this week

Although NASA and its counterpart in Russia, Roscosmos, continue to work together on a daily basis, the leaders of the two organizations have not held face-to-face meetings since the middle of the first Trump administration, back in October 2018. A lot has changed in the nearly eight years since then, including the Russian invasion of Ukraine, the rocky departure of Roscosmos leader Dmitry Rogozin in 2022 who was subsequently dispatched to the front lines of the war, several changes in NASA lea

The Morning After: Apple’s iOS 26 beta is ready for the public

A few months since WWDC 2025, and Apple is shifting its OS update from developers to brave members of the public. Yesterday, the company launched the public beta version of all its operating systems, now all under the umbrella of "26", making my job a little bit easier. I’ve been testing the iOS 26 beta, which (like the rest) centers on a major design shift to Liquid Glass, with transparent overlapping elements and fluid animations. While it looks different, Apple’s focus seems to be familiarit

Six Years of Gemini

2025-06-20 - Six years of Gemini! Today is the sixth anniversary of the public announcement of Project Gemini! It's been a quiet year at geminiprotocol.net thus far. I've let two "Apollo days" slip by without a word. I'm about as disappointed in myself for this as I expect many folks are unsurprised by it. I do still have plans and clear ideas for finalising the minor oustanding spec issues. I'd tell people to look forward to something by Apollo 15 day (2025-11-03), but at this point, who'd be

The Morning After: The best deals from Prime Day 2025

The Morning After: Big, Beautiful Fallout

The so-called “Big, Beautiful Bill” has passed with plenty of nasty treats for the US technology and manufacturing industries. As well as swinging the sword at basic environmental protection measures, the bill sticks its thumb in the eye of the EV industry. Tim Stevens takes you on a tour of the most salient changes, like the imminent end of the EV tax credit. Joining that on the bonfire is the used EV incentive, as well as the rebates for the purchase of commercial EVs. Similarly, for all of t

The Morning After: Don’t let an AI run a vending machine

Hey, you know those politicians and captains of industry who tell us AI will be running the world in a few years’ time? Turns out one of the most sophisticated models currently in use can’t even operate a vending machine without screwing things up . Anthropic has released findings of a test where it put a chatbot in charge of a “store” (really, some baskets, a small refrigerator and a payment terminal in its office). The ‘bot was told to run the store at a profit, and was in charge of everything

Grab these free retro Sega games for iPhone before it’s too late

If you’re a fan of retro Sega games – or just think you might be – you’ll want to download nine of them to your iPhone before they are discontinued … CNET’s Zachary McAuliffe spotted the warning message when downloading a couple of them. I downloaded Crazy Taxi and Streets of Rage, and after I started these games, I saw a screen that said support for the games will be discontinued soon. The screen also says you can play these games offline even after support ends. All nine are currently free
