On the new iPhone 16e

Today Apple unveiled the iPhone 16e, which they're calling a part of the iPhone 16 lineup now, rather than this odd duck the SE had been since launch. Honestly, I think this move in particular is interesting and maybe makes a ton of sense, but let's

Another study on LLM energy use

This study was linked to by The Verge today, and as someone who keeps looking at the energy costs of AI wondering why he’s missing something, one of the opening lines in the study’s executive summary really caught my eye: Electricity consumption from data centres, artificial

Are these 2025’s new iPhones?

9to5Mac has links to two mock ups claiming to represent the iPhone 17 Air and iPhone 17 Pro coming this fall. If I could be so bold, I’d say the 17 Air looks potentially reasonable, but the 17 pro render looks absolutely atrocious. I think there’s

Progression of the condition can be fatal, so even if caught early it must be monitored closely. But, like most things in medicine, that gets expensive. That’s why Marb built his own DIY “micro lab” to analyze ammonia […] The post DIY micro lab analyzes ammonia levels in blood and urine appeared first on Arduino Blog.

This mod simplifies single-point threading on mini lathes

“Single-point threading” on a lathe is the process of cutting threads, such as for a bolt, into the material through turning. The spindle/workpiece spin and the carriage moves linearly at a precise amount per turn of the spindle. That linear movement is the thread pitch. But this process usually requires several passes to reach the […] The post This mod simplifies single-point threading on mini lathes appeared first on Arduino Blog.
