343 People who say it’s fine when it isn’t fine aren’t always lying — they may be running an old calculation that says the cost of the truth is higher than the cost of carrying it alone

People who say it’s fine when it isn’t fine aren’t always lying — they may be running an old calculation that says the cost of the truth is higher than the cost of carrying it alone

When someone says it's fine and it clearly isn't, they're not lying. They're running an old cost-benefit calculation about honesty that was accurate in a different relationship, in a different decade, and has never been updated.

Samsung Galaxy M67 emerges on Geekbench with forgotten Exynos chip

A yet-to-be-announced Samsung Galaxy M-series phone emerged in a Geekbench listing, and it brings a surprising chipset choice. The Samsung Galaxy SM-M676K, which is speculated to be the Galaxy M67, is seen rocking the Exynos 2200. That’s the same Samsung flagship SoC from 2022, which we saw on the Galaxy S22 series and Galaxy S23 FE later on. Galaxy SM-M676K Geekbench listing As a reminder, this is a 4nm chip... Read more

Codex: замена программиста или приятный инструмент?

Apple is already testing Chinese RAM, new report says

A few days ago some reports claimed Apple was considering using Chinese RAM from ChangXin Memory Technologies (CXMT) and Yangtze Memory Technologies (YMTC). Today, a new report claims the company is already testing DRAM chips from CXMT. But there's a twist. Allegedly, Apple would only be using the Chinese-made RAM for devices it will sell in China. That might be a way to minimize the backlash that could ensue from... Read more

Somewhere a grandchild is living through the ordinary afternoon they’ll describe, sixty years from now, as the moment they felt most safe — and no adult in the room has any idea it’s happening

Picture a kitchen in the late afternoon. There is the smell of something slow on the stove, onions maybe, or bread. Light comes in low and golden across a worn wooden table. A small child sits on the floor with a pile of pots, banging out a song only she can hear, while a grandmother ... Read more Read more

Older adults who stop dyeing their hair, stop hosting holidays, and stop apologising for going to bed early aren’t giving up, they’re finally letting go of the performance their younger life couldn’t afford to drop

What looks like older adults giving up — letting hair go grey, declining to host, going to bed early — is usually the opposite: the quiet end of decades of social performance that earlier life couldn't afford to drop. Read more

A lot of men reach their sixties having built their entire sense of usefulness on being the one who fixes things, and the quiet crisis nobody names is what happens to them the year there is finally nothing left to fix.

There is a kind of man who reaches his sixties with an almost immaculate record of usefulness. He fixed the leaking tap. He knew which fuse had gone. He handled the insurance call, carried the boxes, dealt with the mechanic, checked the strange noise in the roof, reversed the trailer, negotiated the builder, and absorbed ... Read more Read more

A whole generation of parents is learning to be grandparents over video call, holding a phone up to a baby who will know their face perfectly and their smell not at all

A quiet revolution has happened in family life over the last few years, and most of us slid into it without ever deciding to. Grandparenting, for a huge number of families, now happens mostly through a screen. A grandmother reads a bedtime story from another time zone. A grandfather plays peekaboo with a baby he ...

You’d think an AI copilot would widen the gap between star employees and everyone else but a Stanford/MIT study of 5,000 call-center agents found the opposite: it lifted novices’ output by about 34% and barely moved the veterans, narrowing the skill gap instead

The assumption almost everyone carries about a new tool: it pours rocket fuel on whoever is already at the front. Give the best people a sharper instrument and they pull further ahead. The gap between the stars and everyone else widens. That is the story we have mostly told ourselves about technology and work, and ... Read more Read more

The promise of AI was a worker who never sleeps, never books leave, and never asks for a raise. The reality is messier: for a growing number of firms, the machine meant to replace payroll is starting to look like a payroll of its own

Uber spent its entire 2026 budget for AI coding tools in four months. By April, after an assistant called Claude Code had spread across its engineering teams, the money set aside for the whole year was gone. The company then capped what any single employee could spend on such tools at $1,500 a month. A ... Read more Read more

There’s a German idea that explains why the most globally dominant companies in their field are ones you’ve never heard of — quiet, family-run, mid-sized firms that would rather own an obscure world market than ever be famous

If you own a dog, there is a reasonable chance its retractable lead was made by a company called Flexi, based in a town in northern Germany, which by its own account and most industry estimates holds around 70 percent of the world market for exactly that product and does nothing else. Its founder’s stated ... Read more Read more

An American pays a $969 list price for the same insulin-class weight-loss pen a German gets for around €59 — and the reason traces back to a century-old Danish rescue mission

Ozempic lists for roughly $969 in the United States and around €59 in Germany — the same pen, the same molecule, made in the same Danish factory. The reason winds back to a Nobel laureate's 1922 trip to Toronto. Read more
