A reported attempt by a covert Chinese lab to reverse-engineer an EUV lithography scanner underscores that, despite access to scattered components, replicating ASML's EUV tools is effectively impossible without recreating the company's entire global supply chain, optics ecosystem, and proprietary software built over decades.

The Justice Department justified its delayed release of sensitive files by citing the need to carefully redact information that could identify victims, but at least some of those redactions have proven to be technically ineffective and can be bypassed by simply copying and pasting the blacked-out text into a new document. A 2022 complaint filed by the US Virgin Islands seeking damages from Jeffrey Epstein's estate appeared on the DOJ's... Read more ›

Someone in the UK has just pulled off a heist — only, that it was completely legal and at a Costco. A prebuilt PC worth $4,863 was bought for just $2,431, featuring flagship parts all around like an RTX 5090, a Ryzen 7 9800X3D and 64 GB of DDR5 6000 MT/s RAM that costs at least $700 just on its own.

"In the age of Spotify and AI slop, tapes remind us what we're missing when we stop taking risks," writes author Janus Rose in an article for 404 Media. Here's an excerpt: There are lots of advantages to the cassette lifestyle. Unlike vinyl records, tapes are compact and super-portable, and unlike streaming, you never have to worry about a giant company suddenly taking them away from you. They can be... Read more ›

Amazon finds itself caught between two competing impulses as AI shopping agents from OpenAI, Google, Perplexity and Microsoft mushroom across the e-commerce space -- block them to protect its dominant position, or partner with them to avoid being left behind. The company has largely played defense so far. Amazon recently updated its website code to block external AI agents from crawling it, and as of this week had blocked 47... Read more ›

The same Supreme Court that ruled that President Donald Trump is allowed to use the powers of the presidency to commit crimes finally placed a meaningful limit on Trump’s authority on Tuesday. In Trump v. Illinois, three Republican justices joined all three of the Court’s Democrats in ruling that Trump violated federal law when he […] Read more ›

The Supreme Court for much of the last several decades has been a fairly technocratic body. The Court, to be sure, has handed down its share of historic cases: Case names like Brown v. Board of Education (1954) and Roe v. Wade (1973) are familiar to most Americans, but such highly political and culturally salient […] Read more ›

The Trump Administration was legally required to release all documents related to federal investigations of Jeffrey Epstein by Friday, with only limited grounds for withholding documents and full explanations required for any redactions. They did not do this. Or anything close to it. The Justice Department released several thousand documents Friday, but top officials acknowledged […] Read more ›

2025 is just about in the books, and the reviews are in: It sucked. Over at the subreddit r/decadeology, you can check out a long, long thread of redditors submitting reasons why 2025 was, in the words of the first post, “a long, disappointing year.” War in Gaza, vibecessions, chaos in the White House, growing […] Read more ›

It’s been a rough year if you care about climate change policy in the United States. In Washington, the second Trump administration has moved quickly to dismantle the scaffolding of federal climate action: pulling the US out of the Paris Agreement (again), freezing or clawing back clean energy funding, fast-tracking fossil fuel projects, and even […] Read more ›

Is CBS News editor-in-chief Bari Weiss censoring critical coverage of the Trump administration to please the network’s billionaire backers and the president himself? It’s the crisis many have anticipated since Weiss — a center-right provocateur known for her outspoken criticism of “wokeness” and support for Israel — was appointed atop CBS News in October.

The Justice Department almost never discloses information it collected on a criminal suspect outside of a criminal judicial proceeding, and for very good reasons.

The first thing that struck me about this year’s most talked-about policy book, Abundance (perhaps you’ve heard of it?), is a detail almost no one talks about.
