$1B Powerball Is Minting Social Media Gold

Powerball just hit a billion dollars, and people are freaking out about it. For 39 draws in a row, no ticket matched all six numbers for the Powerball jackpot. The last draw was on Saturday night. Now, for the next drawing on Labor Day, the jackpot has snowballed to $1.1 billion and will be the game’s fifth-largest prize ever, according to a statement from the lottery.

Why is D3 so Verbose?

Why is D3 Code So Long and Complicated (or Why is it So Verbose)? D3 is a b***h of a language at first glance. It’s long. It’s complicated and verbose. You have to enter what feels like an obscene amount of key strokes to draw one line. I’m currently about one-third of the way through my journey of learning D3.js, having finished Interactive Visualisation for the Web by Scott Murray, and now picking my way through D3.js in Action by Elijah Meeks and Anne-Marie Dufour. (And just for kicks, I’m

Android Auto may soon let you spend less time scrolling, more time driving (APK teardown)

Andy Walker / Android Authority TL;DR Your in-car Android Auto screen could soon display more app columns, making app discovery easier and faster. We were able to surface up to seven app columns in a layout that previously supported a maximum of five columns. The number of app columns you see on your Android Auto screen will depend on the size of your in-car display. Android Auto’s app drawer can sometimes seem a bit cramped. Depending on your car’s display size, you’ll typically see four or

These are the drawing apps I recommend, but one sticks out from the rest

Tushar Mehta / Android Authority Drawing is the oldest form of human expression, dating back to a time far older than writing. I, as a visual learner, rely heavily on illustrations or sketching out things like a prospective DIY furniture project or even cable management under my desk to visualize better. And there are a few incredible apps that help me achieve that. While Procreate is the most recommended drawing app for iPad, there is little unanimity on the Android side. Since I belong to th

Drawing for the New Yorker

Drawing cartoons is an odd profession, I must admit. But someone has to do it. The New Yorker magazine has run cartoons— or drawings, as they like to call them— since its inception 100 years ago. The editors knew how popular satirical art was, and considered it a crucial part of the nascent publication. Not just decoration; far from it. The art was more successful than the writing in that first year! A lot of the process of creating a drawing of this type involves doodling, a lot of observing,

Bits 0x02: switching to orion as a browser

bits 0x02: switching to orion as a browser July 24, 2025 The most interesting thing I wanna share is my browser switch. I’ve always been using Arc. As that is done, I made the switch to Zen. Pretty buggy but ok. The biggest problem I had was the power draw. As I’m preparing a more nomadic lifestyle, I really need to care for my battery. The power draw is really just way too high. By accident, I stumbled upon Orion. I’ve had it in the back of my head but for whatever reason never even looked at

Turn any diagram image into an editable Draw.io file. No more redrawing

Look, we know there are other tools out there. But we built this one because we needed it ourselves. Here's what makes our image to drawio converter different. It Actually Understands Diagrams Here's the thing - most tools just see shapes and lines. Our image to drawio converter sees diagrams. Feed it a whiteboard photo, and it knows that wobbly rectangle is meant to be a process box. Give it a screenshot, and it figures out which arrows connect to which shapes. We spent months training it on r
