SpaceX may not be directly targeting AT&T, T-Mobile, and Verizon’s wireless oligopoly just yet, but the broadband arena is a different story. For the longest time, SpaceX was viewed as something of a niche player, but the company is shedding that label now.Starlink is booming Starlink has become one of SpaceX’s most lucrative units, and that’s bad news for the telecom and cable industry.While market share stats and subscriber numbers may not indicate that yet, the recent duress on shares of Comcast, Charter, AT&T, and Verizon tell a different story, per Barron’s.Starlink now boasts 12 million subscribers globally, with the…
I was really stoked for a new Crazy Taxi game. Sega’s been teasing it for a while now, so I knew it was coming, but the reveal today was still exciting. I love the silly energy of Crazy Taxi, the ridiculous yet fun overuse of The Offspring, and crashing into stuff for no reason. But I guess I’m not playing Crazy Taxi: World Tour now, because for some reason Sega used generative AI to make it. This is according to a disclosure on the Steam page for World Tour, which just went live today: At SEGA Corporation, we utilize generative…
Key Takeaways Workload Identity Federation lets AWS workloads authenticate to Google Cloud using short-lived tokens instead of static service account keys, eliminating credential rotation and leak risk entirely. Workload identity pools should be separated by environment so that a misconfigured or compromised provider stays contained to one environment rather than affecting everything. Federated identities can be granted IAM roles directly on GCP resources using principalSet://, which scales automatically as workload count grows without requiring additional IAM changes. The fastest path to cross-cloud authentication is exporting a service account key and pasting it somewhere it doesn’t belong. It works every time,…
If you use AT&T, Verizon, or T-Mobile, the Supreme Court just settled a fight that has been hanging over your location data for two years. On Thursday (June 4), the court ruled 8-1 that the Federal Communications Commission can fine the carriers for mishandling that data without giving them a jury trial first.The penalties go back to the FCC’s finding that the carriers sold access to real-time customer location data to third-party aggregators, who then resold it down the chain. AT&T was fined about $57 million and Verizon roughly $47 million, and the two cases combined for more than $100…
It’s been a minute since we’ve heard from inXile Entertainment about Clockwork Revolution, the studio’s upcoming action game that mixes the steampunk feel of a BioShock with the RPG qualities the maker of Wasteland 3 is known for. A new gameplay reveal at Xbox’s summer showcase gave us our best look yet at what you’ll actually do in the game, as well as the news that it’s releasing in 2027 as an Xbox console exclusive. Clockwork Revolution takes place in Avalon, an industrial city powered by an underworld of competing crime bosses. Players take control of Morgan Vanette, a character…
Payments used to be simpler from a developer’s point of view. You connected a gateway, sent a transaction, waited for the response, and handled the result. That model does not scale very well in 2026. Modern online businesses often operate across several countries, currencies, payment methods, acquirers, fraud tools, customer segments, and reporting systems. A single payment flow might involve cards, digital wallets, local payment methods, 3DS, fraud screening, retries, routing rules, settlement logic, and reconciliation. Managing all of that through one provider is rarely practical. That is where payment orchestration becomes useful. A payment orchestration platform sits between your…
I bought into the Pixel world with my eyes open, and I daily carry a Pixel 10 Pro Fold, so I know the routine by now. I have also used an iPhone Air in my rotation, so I am not exactly blind to the ways that Google operates. Google ships a neat Pixel-only toy, I play with it for a week during the honeymoon, and then it quietly disappears.Pixel Studio is the latest one to go, and the strange part is that I won’t miss it at all. That is precisely why this one bothers me.Google is shutting down Pixel…

Similar to Marvel superheroes who have remarkable powers, AI possesses its own set of “superpowers,” with self-learning being arguably the most impactful. For many, autonomous learning is like a mysterious black box: we see what goes in and what comes out, but the inner workings are often hidden. In this article, we tackle this puzzle by exploring PyTorch, a widely used machine learning algorithm, aiming to clarify how it learns and updates itself. PyTorch is an open-source framework for building, training, and deploying deep learning models. It uses optimizers such as SGD or Adam to update model weights via gradients…
On Friday, news broke of the passing of actor Anthony Head at 72, best known for his portrayal of Watcher/father figure Rupert Giles on the supernatural drama Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Fans and former costars alike flooded social media with outpourings of appreciation for his talent and grief at his death.
