Tech giants usually prefer to avoid Washington politicians and bureaucrats. Congressional hearings, Justice Department lawsuits and Securities and Exchange Commission probes are no fun. But a new generation of tech companies is finding governments are more likely to be customers than adversaries. That’s clear from the under-the-hood financial details we got this week on startups Anduril and Shield AI, which are selling a growing array of autonomous software and war-fighting hardware to the Department of Def

Apple has tested an updated iPhone keyboard with autocorrect enhancements, according to a report this week from Bloomberg's Mark Gurman. The report said the keyboard "expands autocorrect by offering alternative words," similar to tools like Grammarly.

«Квазар»: концепция системы радиоэлектронной борьбы с БПЛА

Смотрел вчера во время ужина новости по ТВ — опять атаки БПЛА, опять разрушения, пострадавшие. Вспомнил новость, что Бюро 1440 запустило первую часть низкоорбитальной группировки — 16 спутников «Рассвет» — и обещает в этом году довести количество спутников до 256. Кстати, я думал, что название 1440 появилось от количества минут в сутках, оказалось нет: один сотрудник из 1440 сказал, что 1440 оборотов вокруг Земли совершил первый искусственный спутник — тот,...
