On September 6th, YouTuber Nicholas Light posted a video to one of his channels that made it seem like all of his content was about to be removed from the platform. In the video - ominously titled "My Channel will be Deleted Today" - Light alleges that he was on the receiving end of some […]
Meta says it's making changes to the prompts suggested by its AI chatbot after a viral video showed it digging for personal information about a woman's young daughters, as reported earlier by Futurism. In a statement to The Verge, Meta spokesperson Dina El-Kassaby says the company "missed the mark,"

John Ternus didn't mention Apple Home once during his first keynote as Apple CEO. But he did open by describing an "intelligent personal hub" that prioritizes local processing, protects your privacy, and integrates with all your other devices, apps, and services. While Ternus was talking about the i
That isn't Apple's former CEO promoting the Galaxy Z Fold 8 in a new Samsung ad - "Tim Cook from Palmerston North" just happens to have the same name and look a lot like him. Released right as Apple announced its iPhone Duo, the ad mimics Apple's cinematic product launch videos, with "Tim Cook" sayi
Ikea's new Badkruka wireless Bluetooth speaker is now available in the US for $59.99. It's reminiscent of the colorful and tiny $10 Kallsup speaker that Ikea debuted earlier this year at CES 2026, but at almost seven inches tall, the boxy Badkruka isn't designed with portability in mind as it also l

Over past couple months I noticed that HN feed is almost exclusively AI or AI-adjacent news.

Insta360's first compact steadycam, the Luna Ultra, made a splash this year by beating DJI to launch with two lenses.

Last week I ran git branch in one of my older working trees and got back forty-some local branches. Forty. I work on maybe three things at a time. The rest were residue: half of them were merged into main months ago, a few tracked remote branches that someone had already deleted on the server, and t
Apple was far from the first company to announce a passport-shaped folding phone this year, but that doesn't mean it wasn't copied. As my colleague Dom Preston already explained, it's almost impossible to keep product development secret when Apple and its competitors all share the same global suppli
Over one weekend we marked one thousand four hundred orders as paid that had not been paid. Nothing in our logs looked wrong. The gateway responded quickly, our error rate was zero, and the first anyone knew was on Monday when finance reconciled the settlement report against our order table and foun
