Apple is increasingly focusing on building its own devices and expanding its ecosystem by taking steps towards a more native experience for users and relying less on third-party accessories. While the Cupertino-based tech giant's HomePod and AppleTV have left quite the mark in the smart home category, it generally relies more on outsourcing cameras and other hardware for smart homes. Now, a new report suggests that the company intends to create a fully integrated experience by developing its own smart home accessories. Gurman hints about Apple working on making smart home products like security cameras for a more integrated experience […]

Ahead of its highly anticipated crewed test flight to the International Space Station (ISS) that has been years in the making, Boeing has transported its Starliner spaceship to the United Launch Alliance's (ULA) facilities at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida. The Starliner's ten mile journey started early morning today, and the ship has now been mated to its rocket for the highly anticipated test flight next month. Boeing and ULA have also provided a tentative launch date for yet another privately operated crewed mission to the ISS, and if the test is successful, then Boeing will join SpaceX as […]
Elon Musk appears to be leaning toward a thermonuclear option of sorts to deal with the longstanding problem of bots on his X platform if his latest comments are anything to go by.

Ahead of the Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company's (TSMC) upcoming earnings call for the first quarter, Japanese financial research firm Nomura is out with its fresh take on its present situation and future expectations. TSMC's crucial place in the global semiconductor industry - which places it at the heart of the chip supply chain for firms unable to fabricate their silicon - also means that its financials are a barometer for the performance of the broader semiconductor industry. With the current mania surrounding artificial intelligence, the earnings report is quite important as it allows the industry to see the number of […]
Tesla appears to have abandoned its go-to strategy to juice demand by instituting margin-destroying price cuts and, instead, now seems bent on pairing cost-cutting measures with those that enhance its ancillary revenue streams. $TSLA CEO @elonmusk: "..we have done a thorough review of the organization and made the difficult decision to reduce our headcount by more than 10% globally. There is nothing I hate more, but it must be done. This will enable us to be lean, innovative & hungry for the next growth… pic.twitter.com/IkWPEb8c5b — The Transcript (@TheTranscript_) April 15, 2024 To wit, Electrek reported on Sunday that Tesla […]
Trump Media and Technology Group (NASDAQ: DJT) appears to have caught a lot of investors by surprise after filing for the issuance of new shares in what is usually a routine affair in the de-SPAC process. To wit, Truth Social's parent entity has now filed with the SEC to pave the way for the following transactions: The issuance of 21.491 million shares upon the exercise of warrants The permission for Trump Media and Technology Group insiders to sell up to146.108 million common shares after the expiration of their lock-up period, which is the earliest of either the 25th of September, […]
Akin to a tongue-in-cheek iteration of "he loves me, he loves me not," Tesla's near-term narrative is currently being dominated by the following speculative reverie: "Will there be a Model 2, or will there not?" Reuters published a highly contentious report in early April, disclosing Tesla's apparent willingness to abandon its upcoming cheaper Model 2 in the face of serious competition from China. While Elon Musk quickly clamped down on the veracity of Reuters' reporting, this did not stop educated conjecture as to the fate of the $30,000 Model 2. The same day, in an apparent attempt to halt Tesla's […]
Apple's first new product in years, the Apple Vision Pro, is silently trying to take over a market that was previously held by Google's Google Glass - an augmented reality spectacle set that enabled aircraft technicians to carry out their daily jobs. Apple launched the Vision Pro last year, and after the headset became available, those who had preordered it shared their experience of using what Apple calls Spatial Computing. Unlike a traditional computer, the Vision Pro is a headset that enables users to immerse themselves in a digital environment and expand their ability to interact with software. This is […]
After a historic run that saw it remain America's largest rocket before the launch of the Space Launch System (SLS), the United Launch Alliance's (ULA) iconic Delta IV Heavy rocket took to the skies for the last time earlier today from the Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida. The rocket, perhaps best known for setting its base on fire before launch to burn propellant, completed 16 launches in its lifetime and launched payloads weighing at least 46,000 pounds to orbit, making the SLS the only rocket to have surpassed it in delivery mass despite the SpaceX Falcon Heavy being […]
Tesla and Elon Musk's artificial intelligence-focused enterprise, xAI, have collectively established a sizable stash of NVIDIA's H100 GPUs, as the former endeavors to crack the Level 5 autonomous driving conundrum for good, while the latter attempts to realize Musk's vision of a "maximum truth-seeking AI." This is not accurate. Tesla would be second highest and X/xAI would be third if measured correctly. — Elon Musk (@elonmusk) April 8, 2024 The X account "The Technology Brother" recently posted that Mark Zuckerberg's Meta has now amassed one of the largest stashes of the H100 GPUs in the world, amounting to around 350,000 […]
It was not that long ago that China helped save Tesla from near-certain ruination by enabling a rapid scaling up of the Model 3 and Model Y production lines at Giga Shanghai. Now, however, China is utilizing the technology transferred from Tesla and other Western companies to turn the proverbial tables, prompting the US Treasury Secretary, Janet Yellen, to issue a clarion call of sorts on the Asian giant's excess manufacturing capacity vis-a-vis "electric vehicles, lithium-ion batteries, and solar." Janet Yellen on China's Excess Manufacturing Capacity The US Treasury Secretary, Janet Yellen, was in China for the past few days […]
With the first quarter of 2024 over, analysts and research firms are out with their reports for the state of the semiconductor supply chain. The year has been marked with artificial intelligence dominating the conversation, and research reports from Keybanc and UBS are optimistic about the demand for A.I. products. In its analysis, Keybanc shares that NVIDIA remains the industry's preferred A.I. provider, but higher prices have made its customers, such as Microsoft, shift their forecast to allocate more funds to the firm's products at the expense of its rival firms. UBS believes that the six biggest technology firms in […]
In a major step towards establishing a sustainable semiconductor supply chain in the United States over the course of this decade, the Biden-Harris Administration announced today that it has signed a preliminary memorandum of terms with the Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC) to set up three new chip manufacturing plants in the U.S. TSMC, the world's largest contract chip manufacturer, had announced to build two facilities in the U.S. capable of manufacturing chips with feature sizes as small as 2-nanometers. Today's announcement also features a third new chip plant that will be dedicated to making chips with 2-nanometer or advanced […]
