Edgar Cervantes / Android Authority For the past couple of years, I’ve been all about eSIMs. No more fiddling with SIM trays or digging through drawers looking for that tiny, ever-evasive SIM ejector tool. No more worrying about losing a SIM card in your bag, under your couch, or in that parallel dimension where socks and USB cables disappear. In 2025, eSIMs should be the default, and I was prepared to write a scathing takedown of any manufacturer still clinging to physical SIM cards. But then,

The advent of streaming wars has built a physical media scarcity in a very specific medium: animation. One of the headaches of Disney+ is having to sit through copious credits from all over the world between episodes of Bluey, and then having to deal with the background ambient binge of episodes stopping abruptly. Then there’s the matter of trying to restart the cycle-through of episodes when it just pops you back to the main series menu. And no, watching Disney’s live cartoon stream so it can p

March 24, 2025 It's Time to Stop Building KV Databases I'm so sick of Key-Value. The most unopinionated, uninspired data model that is a pain to use for anything. They're very popular! Among database vendors. Or, specifically, storage engine vendors. They love to offer you a byte array to byte array map, and if they are feeling particularly generous, it might even be ordered so that you can do range scans. The problem is that the only thing that a KV interface is good for is as a building bl

As generative AI moves increasingly into the physical world through robotics, vehicles, and drones, the need to map cloud-based AIs to real-world environments can lead to a huge mismatch. Rerun, a Stockholm-based dev tools startup, which builds a data stack for this emergent kind of “physical AI,” has secured $17 million in seed funding to help AI developers smooth out the bumps from code to road, as it were.

You might be wondering if this means your home or workplace might one day be filled with robots you can bark orders at. More on that soon. But first, where did this come from? Google has not made big waves in the world of robotics so far. Alphabet acquired some robotics startups over the past decade, but in 2023 it shut down a unit working on robots to solve practical tasks like cleaning up trash. Despite that, the company’s move to bring AI into the physical world via robots is following the

Go low-tech: Over the last few years, Volkswagen has removed physical buttons in its vehicles, choosing to bake control settings into its infotainment panel. Now, the company is backtracking. It's a controversial trend that has stirred monumental debate within the auto industry between customers who hate it and carmakers loving the advertising opportunities. Volkswagen will bring back physical controls for some of its vehicles' most essential cabin controls. According to Andreas Mindt, head of

All future Volkswagen models will feature physical controls for the most important functions, design chief Andreas Mindt has said. The German firm has been criticised over the past few years for moving many of the vital controls in its cars from physical buttons and dials to the infotainment touchscreen. Volkswagen also introduced haptic ‘sliders’ below the touchscreen for the heating and volume and it started using haptic panels instead of buttons for controls mounted on the steering wheel. M

The big picture: Although the Trump administration just announced a one-month delay on most imports from Canada and Mexico, the eventual resumption of tariffs on Mexican goods could significantly impact the production of physical video games. This unintended consequence may compound the challenges already expected to slow the gaming industry due to existing tariffs on Chinese imports. Analysts predict that a 25 percent tariff on goods imported from Mexico would substantially affect the U.S. ret

Analysts are warning that the Trump administration's recently implemented tariffs on Canada, Mexico, and China could lead to price increases and supply issues for video game software and hardware in the United States. The effects could be particularly pronounced for physical game discs, which are now overwhelmingly produced in Mexico. A 25 percent tax on discs shipped in from Mexico could lead to "a sharp downtick in the number of disc-based games that get released physically in the US," Circan
