Or 26 CEOs for 1 year. (Tim Cook earned ~$75M for 2024).

There's also Match Poker, which makes a Team Sport out of Poker and removes all the gambling and chance - https://matchpokerfed.org/match-poker/

Also, if people start leaving Meta because of AI-slop, Meta will figure out the right amount of AI-slop that results in the highest engagement.

Some of the Safari screenshots are making me wonder if fake browser chrome attacks will become more prominent in iOS. The chrome/content boundary has slipped away to almost nothing, and it should be possible now to emulate the floating buttons on Safari.


Indeed. Not good.


I made the mistake of upgrading (13 Mini) and it is very clear that the new UI was not tested at all on smaller screens. The rounded buttons take up so much extra margin that actual usable space is greatly diminished.


How's the battery on your 13 Mini? Mine is abhorrent compared to a few weeks ago.


I have a 12 mini and have also found that 26 has killed my battery life.

I also agree that they didn’t test it on smaller screens, there are lots of cases where things don’t quite fit right.

I’ve been wanting a better camera for a little while, I guess it’s time to adjust to something bigger :\


Same here - on a 12 Mini. My wife and my mother have the same phone, and I have recommended that they hold back on upgrading.

I really hope Apple will address this in a dot-upgrade later this year, but I am afraid that the market share of the 12 and 13 models are too low for them to justify this.


I have the standard iPhone 13 (not mini) and the battery longevity is probably the best of any phone I've ever owned. At over 3.5 years old it still reports 89% battery health and lasts much longer than I need. Previous iPhones I owned were all pretty much on their last legs by that age.

I haven't upgraded it to iOS 26 / Liquid Glass, though, and given what I'm seeing/hearing, I don't plan to.


The question was how much the update to iOS 26 affected battery life


On the iPhone 13 Mini


I like to rant about my iPhone 13's great battery, any chance I can get!


U+1FAE1 SALUTING FACE


I just replaced it before the 26 upgrade. It was at 76% by then. With the new battery, I haven’t faced any issues. It lasts a whole day easily, unless I do things like tethering etc.


Replied at the same time as you. I agree. In Safari there’s ton of space on each side of the URL bubble yet I only get about 7 chara visible.


There is a Safari setting to improve this, although it adds height. Still preferable, imo.


The mini’s logical resolution is actually the same as the Pro Max with Display Zoom, hence the latter will have the same issue.


Same. Terrible mistake. My mini overheats like crazy now.


On the mini, some UI elements got half pushed into Narnia. Apple, like, WTF?!


+1.


Is there any reading material on the private-key recovery bits? I want to learn how AT manages failure scenarios, especially around key-loss.


The private key is normally stored on your PDS (hosting). See https://www.da.vidbuchanan.co.uk/blog/adversarial-pds-migrat... for how to be prepared for adversarial migration.


> While the government remains in denial about the deaths highlighted by Right to Food activists, the Minister admits that Santoshi Kumar, 11, died because her family ration card was deleted for not being linked to Aadhaar. Taramani Sahu, a foot soldier of the Right to Food Campaign, says she had raised this issue with the district authorities months before Santoshi died. The administration assured intervention, but that came only after the child’s death.

Jharkhand has the most of these, due to the underlying issues and activism on Right to Food in the region.

I also remember a case where an infant Aadhaar was issued by CSC at the hospital and was celebrated as a win because the doctors refused emergency Heart Surgery without the infant having an Aadhaar.


For a static analysis approach, I wrote a NPM package called which-electron: https://github.com/captn3m0/which-electron

It uses an automatically update package listing the hashes of all files in electron releases: https://github.com/captn3m0/electron-fingerprints

I’ve been meaning to improve the detector to use ELF info.


Thank you, but I'd like to keep it simple, and we only need to detect electron apps and extract version from last 4 versions.


It’s great to have multiple approaches and more highlight on this problem.


Not yet on iOS 26, but will try this out soon!
