Microsoft and Uber alum raises $3M for YC-backed Munify, a neobank for the Egyptian diaspora

techcrunch.com Tage Kene-Okafor 2025-10-20 22:04:10

Khalid Ashmawy remembers the first time he wired money home while studying in Europe. He had just received his monthly stipend as a master’s student in Stuttgart and wanted to send part of it back to his family in Cairo. It was usually a slow and expensive process, he recalled. A $400 wire transfer, for instance, could cost $40 in fees and take three business days to arrive. Years later, while working at Microsoft and Uber in the U.S., and even after founding a startup, that experience hadn’t

Android’s improved Quick Share interface is now rolling out, here’s what’s new

Mishaal Rahman / Android Authority TL;DR Google is rolling out a new design for Quick Share. The new UI brings separate “Receive” and “Send” screens. In the “Send” mode, you can now select files directly and preview them before sending. Google’s Quick Share is an effortless way to transfer large files at high speeds from or to Android devices. You can already share files with other Android devices, Windows PCs, or Chromebooks. Google is also working to extend official support to iOS and macO

This update now allows you to send files from your computer to your Android device.

Messages on iOS 26 will make it harder to fall for phishing scams

While even tech-savvy users can fall for elaborate phishing scams, most attacks are designed to target less technically inclined people. With that in mind, the new Messages app in iOS 26 introduces (or better yet, removes) two things that could make a pretty big difference in keeping users safe, regardless of how familiar they may be with phishing tactics.

Async Queue – One of my favorite programming interview questions

For the past 7+ years, I've been conducting a programming interview that has been a true personal favorite of mine. It was passed down to me from good friends (Jeremy Kaplan and Carl Sverre, and it was the latter whom I believe invented it). This interview has probably been given by us between 500-1000 times across different companies, and upon googling for "async queue interview", I see tons of results. So, it's probably fine for me to blog about it. My main goal with this blog post is to disc

Microsoft 365 'Direct Send' abused to send phishing as internal users

bleepingcomputer.com Unknown 2026-02-20 14:00:00

An ongoing phishing campaign abuses a little‑known feature in Microsoft 365 called "Direct Send" to evade detection by email security and steal credentials. Direct Send is a Microsoft 365 feature that allows on‑premises devices, applications, or cloud services to send emails through a tenant's smart host as if they originated from the organization's domain. It’s designed for use by printers, scanners, and other devices that need to send messages on behalf of the company. However, the feature i

When a serious emergency occurs, a picture can be worth a thousand words. It can be incredibly helpful to first responders to see ahead of time what they will be faced with when they arrive. It is technically possible to send photos and video to 911 operators, but it’s a convoluted process.
