Here's how to disable Ring's creepy Search Party feature

Ring aired a Super Bowl ad touting its Search Party feature that didn't quite get the intended buzz. Instead, the commercial scared the pants off of anyone concerned about a mass surveillance state.
The feature is advertised as a way to reunite missing dogs with their owners, a noble cause indeed, but Search Party does this by turning individual Ring devices into a surveillance network. Each camera uses AI to identify pets running across its field of vision and all feeds are pooled together to potentially i

The person in your life who never panics, never raises their voice, and always has a plan isn’t naturally calm. They’re running an entire operating system that was built in a house where someone else’s instability was the weather, and calm was the only thing that kept the roof on.

The person who never panics didn't win the temperament lottery. They built an entire operating system in a childhood where someone else's instability was the weather, and their calm was the only thing keeping everything from falling apart. Read more

Как быстро встроить MAX в свои системы

MAX в России постепенно превращается не просто в «ещё один мессенджер», а в канал, который всё чаще рассматривают как рабочую точку контакта с пользователем: для уведомлений, сервисных сообщений, внутренних ботов и групповых сценариев. И как только компания доходит до реальной интеграции, почти всегда начинается знакомая история: сначала один скрипт на отправку уведомлений, потом второй на обработку входящих сообщений, потом отдельная логика для групп, потом ещё пара «временных» костылей. Через месяц... Read more

Задача по созданию AI-ассистента очень интересная и востребованная на рынке.Для чего она?Структуризация и контроль процессов. Самый большой импакт, конечно же, всё это даёт на повторяющихся встречах (дейлики, двухнедельные срезы и т.д.). Большинство сотрудников бегают на десятки встреч в неделю, и «забыть», что было на предыдущей встрече, очень легко - в этот момент можно просто обратиться к RAG или к протоколам напрямую.

I grew up being told I was too sensitive and I spent the next twenty-five years building an entire personality around not reacting. Now I’m the person everyone calls steady and nobody calls close, and I can trace the distance in every relationship I have back to a single word a teacher used when I was nine.

The most emotionally stable people you know may have built that composure from childhood suppression, not wisdom. When a single label at age nine teaches a child their feelings are wrong, the next 25 years become a construction project that earns admiration but costs intimacy. Read more

Tesla's Upcoming Electric Big Rig Is Already a Hit with Truckers

Коммуникации с пациентами в 2026 году: полный крах привычных каналов и новая архитектура взаимодействия

Еще пару лет назад казалось, что формула успеха проста: WhatsApp Business для рассылок, Telegram для срочных уведомлений и немного email для галочки. Но к 2026 году рынок медицинских коммуникаций в России вошел в фазу идеального шторма. Мессенджеры один за другим уходят в зону нестабильности или блокировок, регуляторы требуют не просто согласий, а их безупречного юридического оформления, а пациенты, уставшие от вала спама, научились мгновенно блокировать любые каналы, вызывающие малейший дискомфорт.Мы...

Weekly poll results: the Nothing Phone (4a) Pro is the fan favorite, while the (4a) takes a step back

Last year, the Nothing Phone (3a) was voted as having a better value than its (3a) Pro sibling, while people that might have bought the Pro were instead pulled towards the then-upcoming Nothing Phone (3) flagship. So, when we posted last week’s poll, we were sure that the (4a) would prevail over its Pro sibling. After all, the Nothing Phone (4a) closed the camera gap to the Pro. But look... Read more

A new study reveals that farming in Argentina’s Uspallata Valley was adopted by local hunter-gatherers rather than introduced by outside populations. Centuries later, a stressed group of maize-heavy farmers migrated into the region, facing climate instability, disease, and declining numbers. Despite these pressures, there’s no sign of violence—instead, families stayed connected across generations, using kinship networks to survive. The research shows how cooperation, not conflict, helped communities navigat Read more

"There is a quality difference," Söderlund told GamesIndustry.biz. "A real professional actor is better than AI; that's just how it is." With Arc Raiders' player count peaking... Read more

Basically, if there’s an app for something, there’s likely an associated subscription available, too. This guide was put together to help... Read more
