Elon Musk announced that SpaceX is cutting prices for its Starlink satellite internet service, a move that signals the company’s growing confidence in its ability to scale operations while simultaneously applying pressure to a growing field of competitors.
The Ladybird Web Browser Initiative, one of the most ambitious independent browser projects in years, announced this week that it will formally adopt Rust as a second implementation language alongside C++.
The Supreme Court’s recent decision to uphold President Donald Trump’s sweeping tariff authority has sent shockwaves through financial markets, corporate boardrooms, and household budgets alike. In a ruling that legal scholars and economists are still parsing, the nation’s highest court declined to strike down the president’s use of the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) to impose broad-based tariffs on imports from virtually every major trading partner.
The largest coordinated capital expenditure campaign in the history of the technology industry is now underway. Microsoft, Amazon, Alphabet, Meta, and a handful of other corporate titans have collectively committed roughly $650 billion to artificial intelligence infrastructure in the United States—a figure that dwarfs previous investment cycles and one that carries profound implications for the American workforce, energy grid, and industrial base.
Samsung Electronics is reportedly preparing one of its most ambitious display innovations yet for the Galaxy S26 Ultra: a built-in privacy screen that would prevent people nearby from reading what’s on your phone. The feature, which has long existed as a clunky aftermarket accessory for laptops and monitors, could soon be embedded directly into the smartphone’s panel — a move that signals Samsung’s intent to differentiate its flagship devices on security and user experience rather than raw specifications alone.
For years, the lidar industry has been locked in a fierce contest to build sensors small enough, cheap enough, and reliable enough to earn a permanent place on mass-market automobiles. Spinning mechanical units perched atop self-driving prototypes made for striking visuals, but automakers made clear they would never bolt such contraptions onto consumer vehicles.
For more than two decades, SpaceX has defined itself as a company that launches things into orbit — satellites, astronauts, cargo, and the ambitions of its founder, Elon Musk. But recent reporting and government filings suggest the Hawthorne, California-based aerospace giant is preparing to cross a threshold that would fundamentally alter its identity: the development and production of weapons systems for the United States military.
A routine software update has turned into a nightmare for Samsung Galaxy S22 series owners, with reports flooding online forums that the February 2025 security patch is rendering devices completely unusable. The issue, which causes phones to enter an endless boot loop, has left thousands of users locked out of their devices with no clear fix in sight—and Samsung’s response so far has done little to quell growing frustration.
For years, Samsung Galaxy phone owners have lived under a quiet but persistent constraint: no matter how much they preferred Google’s Gemini or another AI assistant, Samsung’s own Bixby was deeply embedded into the device experience, often serving as the default for key hardware interactions. That era is drawing to a close.
For months, software engineers have been experimenting with AI-powered code editors, trying to find the right balance between human oversight and machine autonomy. Now, a relatively obscure feature inside Cursor — the AI-first code editor built on top of Visual Studio Code — is drawing attention from developers who want to understand exactly what their AI assistant is doing under the hood. The feature is called Debug Mode, and while it isn’t new, a recent detailed breakdown by developer David Gomes has reignited interest in how it works and why it matters.
