I love this multi-device headset, and right now it’s cheaper than what I paid for it in March.

Robotaxis are expanding. So is the fight over the rules governing them. In New York, Gov. Kathy Hochul withdrew a proposal earlier this year that would have opened the door to driverless robotaxis outside New York City after taxi drivers, unions, and state lawmakers opposed it. Six months later, commercial driverless service remains illegal in […]

The FTC and Zillow have announced a settlement that ends the case alleging that a 2025 "partnership" between Zillow and Redfin violated antitrust laws. The FTC had alleged Zillow agreed to pay Redfin to syndicate its listings, while Redfin would end its own advertising contracts and promise not to compete with Zillow for multifamily listings. […]

The creator of the world's first 3D-printed gun claims he's developed a way to thwart government-mandated software meant to block 3D printers from making firearms. It's an opening volley in what's shaping up to be an evolving battle between regulators trying to stem the tide of ghost guns and individuals trying to create workarounds. Cody […]

Early testers are raving about what Instinct can do, but some say the AI assistant’s sweeping access, broad terms and ability to act on users’ behalf come with uncomfortable trade-offs

At TechCrunch Disrupt 2026, Replit CEO Amjad Masad will share his perspective on the future of programming and Replit's role in developing it.

As the memory shortage continues to cause trouble for hardware makers, Amazon says it is now being forced to pass on the costs to its consumers.

Weeks after OpenAI disclosed that one of its cybersecurity models had gone rogue and hacked AI dataset company Hugging Face, Alabama’s Attorney General announced an investigation into the incident.

OpenAI has moved ChatGPT Ads from an early US pilot toward a broader self-serve advertising platform. On May 5, 2026, the company opened Ads Manager to all US advertisers and added cost-per-click bidding alongside its existing CPM buying model. The change gives advertisers a more familiar way to manage spend, but ChatGPT Ads remain fundamentally different from search advertising: relevance is guided by conversation context and advertiser-provided context hints, not exact-match keywords or demo...

Prepping for a Node.js interview? Here are 15 questions that come up again and again — with short, to-the-point answers. If you can explain these clearly, you're in good shape. Basics 1. What is Node.js? A runtime to run JavaScript outside the browser (built on V8). It's event-driven and non-blocking — great for I/O-heavy apps like APIs and real-time servers. 2. Is Node.js single-threaded? Your JS runs on one main thread, but Node offloads heavy I/O to libuv's background...

The dsh-web project has published an all-in-one plugin package for DeepSeek Harness Web, giving developers a single installation path for task automation, remote browser access, SSH administration, image analysis, skins and other interface extensions. The consequence is a much broader DSH Web workbench—and a larger set of packages and security boundaries for its operator to manage. The recommended package, @linxin666/dsh-web-all , installs through DSH’s web profile. Developers who do not w...

Every building permit a county issues is a public record, and every permit is also a small signal about a house: someone pulled a water-heater permit, someone's remodel inspection failed, someone re-roofed a place fifteen years ago. For a home-service business those signals are leads — but they arrive as a flat CSV export with hundreds of rows and no ranking. Permit Lead Finder is the thing that turns that export into a sorted list: each property scored, the high-intent ones at the top, with a p...

I spent a while pulling together posting data, government projections and salary guides across four labour markets — the US, Europe, Russia and the GCC — for four role families that don't get as much coverage as "software engineer": cybersecurity, QA/test, product & project management, and IT support/sysadmin. The same split shows up in all four regions: security is short of people, support is being automated and legislated away, QA is thinning, and every door has narrowed at the junior e...

MCP pagination empty nextCursor handling looks like a tiny null check, but the wrong predicate can hide most of a server's catalog. In the final 2026-07-28 specification, cursors are opaque strings. An empty string is valid; only a missing nextCursor ends traversal. In a nullable C# response model, that absence is represented by null . I built a small .NET 10 verifier because this failure is unusually quiet: the request succeeds, the first page looks reasonable, and no error says that later...

By embedding native chat UI components directly into your SKILL.md instructions, you transform your agent from a passive text parser into an active technical interviewer with a delightful user experience. Here is what you will get out of this deep dive: How to use Google Antigravity interactive UI Primitives. Round-trip state hydration for user selections with grounding. Practical design rules for structuring finite selection lists without overwhelming developers or triggering visual...

I Built an Open-Source Toolkit for AI Watermark & Provenance Forensics AI-generated content is becoming increasingly common. But when you receive an AI-generated image, document, or other digital artifact, an interesting question remains: What can we actually learn from the file itself? There may be metadata, provenance information, invisible Unicode characters, statistical signals, or other artifacts that aren't visible from the surface. I wanted a developer-friendly way t...

A few years back I let a domain lapse. Not a throwaway one either. It was live, had traffic, and I just forgot the renewal date sitting in some registrar account I hadn't logged into in months. By the time I noticed, it was in redemption and cost me a small fortune to get back. The annoying part is that it was completely avoidable. I owned maybe fifteen domains at the time, spread across three registrars, and I had no single place that told me what was expiring and when. So I wrote a script. ...

The least complex defensible design is private object storage plus a short-lived signed URL minted only after application authorization succeeds. For a marketplace retaining signed documents until an explicit deletion deadline, the URL is a temporary delivery credential; it is not the retention policy, the user session, or the audit record. Short answer: authenticate the requester, verify tenant and document access against current application state, confirm that the export is ready and still ...

What started as a simple idea inside a student-led tech community turned into something much bigger than we expected. Our first national hackathon crossed 4,600+ registrations . And honestly, getting there was not just about building a registration page or announcing an event. It was about taking an idea, building a team around it, finding the right partners, and actually executing. This is the story of how we did it. It Started With an Idea Every event starts somewhere...

I built Routeup around a simple idea: local apps should use their real names. It was inspired by Portless , but I also wanted built-in public tunneling, selective path exposure, request inspection, and live logs. Instead of opening localhost:3000 , I can give a project a stable, trusted HTTPS URL and keep using it across restarts: https://example-app.localhost The app stays local by default. When an external service needs access, I can expose the whole route or only selected paths s...

I burned out two years ago, went through a divorce, and relocated to a new city. I live alone now and care for seven cats. Over the last two years, I’ve tried forcing discipline, making detailed plans, and restarting over and over. Despite this, I’m still carrying significant debt. My main struggle is staying focused on paid work. I’m constantly building and working on my own side projects, but I struggle to put time into client work. Because of my experience, finding clients isn't hard, but...
