Instagram is continuing its expansion into living rooms with Instagram for TV, for Apple TV. The company first started testing a version of the platform focused on Reels, live streams, and other video content, blown up for a bigger screen in December of last year. Then, in June, it launched a slew of new features […]

The Crkd Nitro Deck was a saving grace for the original Nintendo Switch. The slide-on $59.99 accessory brought Hall effect sticks to drift-plagued consoles - no need to open up your Joy-Con for a complicated repair. The Nitro Deck 2, made for both the original Switch and the larger Switch 2, continues the tradition of […]

I know many of you are mourning the loss of the Arc browser, and I get it. It felt like the first app in a long time to really offer a new approach to browser design. Atlassian bought the company last year and shifted its focus to developing Dia, its even more AI-focused browser. And […]

Welcome back to TechCrunch Mobility, your hub for the future of transportation and now, more than ever, the role AI is playing in it.

"Despite massive investments and widespread hype around artificial intelligence, the technology has delivered zero financial payoff to corporate America outside of tech."

Submission for the Hacktoberfest Open-Source AI Challenge: Week 3 — Slow and Steady . Built during the challenge window, runs entirely on my laptop. Code: * github.com/vishnumur777/text-dataset-cleaner * . The chore I kept putting off I have a folder of Tamil and English sentences scraped from forms, chat logs and OCR dumps. They are mostly fine — the worst kind of fine: In the data What it should be down loa ded the dataset downloaded the d...

A chart can only set the fields its templates write. When a Kubernetes field you need is missing from them, the value you add to values.yaml is silently ignored, unless the chart has a values schema that rejects it. This post sets nine such fields from open issues on the rendered manifests, first with a Kustomize patch over helm template , then with Kapitan 's mutate generator . Most of them are RFC 6902 JSON Patch operations, and mutate's json6902 takes the same operations as K...

Some Helm charts render an object you need to own yourself and offer no value to leave it out. This post covers two such cases from open issues: the Kyverno chart creates a PodDisruptionBudget for every controller that runs more than one replica, and the External Secrets chart renders its two ValidatingWebhookConfigurations whenever it renders the webhook. In both, the object is deleted from the rendered manifests, first with a Kustomize patch over helm template , then with Kapitan 's ...

This is a submission for the Hacktoberfest Open-Source AI Challenge Week 3: Slow and Steady TL;DR. A Pakistani household that stays at or under 200 units a month pays the protected rate. Go over once and the next six bills are priced as unprotected: about Rs 32,000 extra for a typical 2 kW home on this year's tariff. Slabwatch takes one meter reading and tells you, in units per day, what it takes to stay under, and only speaks up when the risk is real. I replayed 65 real recorded b...

Short answer: Use an image generation API to create the base asset, then use Lanczos upscaling for 2x or 4x delivery when a production support app needs a larger resolution; choose an external AI upscaler only when recovered detail matters more than latency and operational simplicity. For a support-ticket triage app, generate the first image at its native size, then enlarge it only when a customer needs a hero image, print asset, or high-DPI preview. That keeps the fast path small and makes ...

This is a submission for the Hacktoberfest Open-Source AI Challenge Week 3: Slow and Steady Have you ever made one tiny change in a Word document, and the whole document decided to rearrange itself? A page break shows up out of nowhere. Paragraphs shift. One paragraph is suddenly centred when everything else is justified. And there is a big blank gap that you cannot delete, no matter what you click. Fixing the formatting ends up taking longer than writing the document. I know ...

Five States Hold Nearly Two-Thirds of Reported Layoff Workers in Current WARN Data Layoff Atlas's current 90-day WARN window contains 704 notices covering 66,156 reported workers, with 33 counts unavailable. Five states — Washington, California, Illinois, Texas and Ohio — account for 42,755 of those workers, or about 65 percent of the total. The other 46 jurisdictions in the registry share the remaining 23,401 reported workers. That concentration is the single most important thing to unde...

A security guard at a housing society gate in India deals with a visitor every few minutes: guests, delivery riders, cabs, house help. The gate is often at the edge of the plot, under a concrete canopy, on a low-cost Android phone with patchy mobile data. If the app stops logging when the network drops, the guard goes back to the paper register, and the society loses its record of who came in. So when we built the guard app for GateKeeperZero , "keeps working offline" was a hard requirement,...

Originally published at Trida AI . A support chatbot is usually graded on how the conversation felt. Did it sound helpful? Was the customer polite at the end? Meanwhile the things that actually cost a telecom operator money and trust sit outside the grade: a credit promised but never applied, a dispute waved through on a story, a customer who asked for a person three times and got a script. This open blueprint, the CX Resolution Agent , is built around a stricter idea: a support agent s...

An AI tool answering a prompt and an audit record being saved are two different events. That distinction has shaped our recent work on Chron , a local-first logger for AI interactions. We want developers to inspect what was recorded, understand what a verification result establishes, and recover their evidence when something goes wrong. Here are five capabilities shipped across recent releases, available in Chron 0.1.64 . 1. Capture before release, without asking the model to...

Hi HN, I'm Samar, a software engineer. I built Junior because I was spending more time fixing CI issues, babysitting PRs and resolving merge conflicts. I thought maybe i should automate all of it, and that's why I started building Junior. Junior is an agent that runs locally on macOS and picks up that kind of work. It connects with my Linear, Slack, Github etc and autopicks work for himself. It works on it and shares a report for me to review. It's open source under. I'd love feedback, especiall...

Hey guys, today I read a statistic that showed that Agentic traffic surpassed human traffic on the internet and that statistic was very shocking to me. At the same time I saw another statistic that showed only 10% of agents built, actually get into production. These two statistics seemed ironic to me. So I wondered to myself what is the major bottleneck that is causing a lot of the agents that are being built not get into production and what is the infrastructure missing to make Agentic traffic...

This is my own very opinionated take on personal accounting / budgeting for freelancers and small business owners operating in multiple currencies. A lot of this is influenced by my circumstances: - consultant / freelancer / business owner with multiple revenue streams - revenue fluctuates a lot and changes month to month - we're nomad, so currencies and shops change a lot, but categories stay stable - mobile and agentic first (PWA and MCP) with good desktop support on top - import from Wise, Pl...
