Le titre mythique, racheté par Jeff Bezos en 2013, a annoncé mercredi une vague de licenciements, qui selon le “New York Times”, affectera environ 300 des quelque 800 journalistes que compte le quotidien. La presse américaine dénonce un plan de “démolition” d’une ampleur “vertigineuse”.
Face à la concurrence de la cérémonie d’ouverture des Jeux olympiques d’hiver de Milan-Cortina, le coup d’envoi de la compétition, initialement prévu vendredi au Stade de France, a été avancé d’un jour. Ce qui oblige les Bleus d’Antoine Dupont à changer leurs habitudes.
Les documents publiés par le ministère de la justice américain montrent que les trois milliardaires entretenaient des relations avec le prédateur sexuel. Si le fondateur de Microsoft et celui de LinkedIn ont fait part de leurs regrets, le patron de SpaceX assure, lui, n’avoir participé à aucune soirée au côté du financier.
La température a beau être redescendue autour du sort de la plus grande île du monde, le risque d’une déstabilisation de la région tout entière demeure. Car Russes, Chinois et Américains ont tous des raisons d’y étendre leur influence, relève le “Financial Times”.

Helium is inert, which makes it useful in a lot of different industries. But helium’s colorless and odorless non-reactivity also means traditional gas sensing methods don’t work. Specialized detectors exist, but are expensive and fussy. Thankfully, researcher [Li Fan] and colleagues found a physics-based method of detecting helium that seems as elegant as it is simple.
The new sensor relies on a topological kagome structure, and doesn’t depend on any chemical reaction or process whatsoever. The cylinders in the structure are interconnected; air can flow in and speakers at the three corners inject sound.
Sound waves propagate through the air within the structure at a fixed rate, and as helium enters the...
Search keeps printing, Cloud is throwing off real profit — and Google's stock still flinched, because its 2026 capex makes the AI era look like infrastructure
Vladimir Poutine « n’a pas peur des Européens ; il n’a peur que de Trump », a déclaré le président ukrainien. « Ce que Trump doit dire à Poutine, ce n’est pas à moi de le dire », a-t-il ajouté, alors qu’il était invité du « 20 heures ».
When Valve first announced its impressive-looking Steam Machine, Steam Frame, and Steam Controller hardware in November, the company said the products would begin shipping in early 2026. Some journalists were told "Q1 2026" specifically. But because of the ongoing memory and storage crunch, that launch has been delayed to sometime in the first half of this year, and Valve says it will reset expectations for how much they will cost "as soon as possible."
"We planned on being able to share specific pricing and launch dates by now," Valve says in a new post. "But the memory and storage shortages you've likely heard about across the industry ha …

While Apple weren’t the first to invent high-DPI displays or to put them into consumer electronics, they did popularize them fairly effectively with the Retina displays in the early 2010s and made a huge number of them in the following years. The computers they’re attached to are getting up there in age, though, and although these displays are still functional it isn’t quite as straightforward to use them outside of their Apple-approved use. [David] demonstrates one way of getting this done by turning a 5k iMac into an external monitor.
The first attempt at getting a usable monitor from the old iMac was something called a Luna Display, but this didn’t have a satisfying latency. Instead, [David] turned...
La direction du journal qui fit la lumière sur le scandale du Watergate a annoncé le renvoi de 300 de ses 800 journalistes, dont de nombreux correspondants à l’étranger. La décision a déclenché, au sein de la rédaction comme en dehors, une vague d’émotion et de colère qui vise en particulier le propriétaire du titre : le milliardaire Jeff Bezos.
“China has granted the world’s first commercial licences for autonomous flying taxis, marking a significant milestone in the global push for urban air mobility… The announcement signals the start of what China has called ‘a new era in low-altitude economy’ with ambitions to lead in a sector still in experimental stages elsewhere. Chinese planners are preparing the groundwork for a business that could generate up to CNY2 trillion ($280bn) in annual output as soon as 2030, Urban Land reports. Guangzhou-based EHang received a type certificate for its EH216-S model in October 2023, and was awarded its production certificate in April 2024.

Google's parent company, Alphabet, has earned more than $400 billion in annual revenue for the first time. The company announced the milestone as part of its Q4 2025 earnings report released on Wednesday, which highlights the 15 percent year-over-year increase as its cloud business and YouTube continue to grow.
As noted in the earnings report, Google's Cloud business reached a $70 billion run rate in 2025, while YouTube's annual revenue soared beyond $60 billion across ads and subscriptions. Alphabet CEO Sundar Pichai told investors that YouTube remains the "number one streamer," citing data from Nielsen. The company also now has more than …

“NASA’s Perseverance Mars rover has completed the first drives on another world that were planned by artificial intelligence. Executed on Dec. 8 and 10, and led by the agency’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Southern California, the demonstration used generative AI to create waypoints for Perseverance, a complex decision-making task typically performed manually by the mission’s human rover planners… During the demonstration, the team leveraged a type of generative AI called vision-language models to analyze existing data from JPL’s surface mission dataset. The AI used the same imagery and data that human planners rely on to generate waypoints — fixed locations where the rover takes up a new set of...
During a two-hour hearing in the US Senate Wednesday, top executives from Waymo and Tesla urged lawmakers to take action on long-stalled legislation to speed the deployment of self-driving cars on public roads. But after two hours of Q&A around a number of hot-button topics, including robotaxi safety, legal liability, remote operation, and China, it was clear that lawmakers were no closer to passing any bill related to autonomous vehicles.
Waymo faced questions about its decision to use a Chinese-made vehicle for its next-generation robotaxi, as well as several incidents in which its vehicles failed to stop behind a school bus during studen …

“At first glance the global economy looks more uneven than ever: billionaires’ fortunes keep breaking records, asset prices have soared and voters across rich countries insist that life is getting harder and more expensive. Yet in the 21st century the world economy has kept getting more equal. Data released on January 20th, covering 194 countries and economies, and compiled by the World Data Lab, a research firm, show that the ratio between spending by the world’s richest 10% and the poorest 50% has more than halved since 2000. Back then, the rich spent about 40 times more than the poor; today the figure is closer to 18. Over the same period, the richest 1% have also seen their share of consumption...
“Over the long run, global inequality has declined dramatically across many dimensions as living standards have improved. While a substantial reduction in worldwide inequality occurred between 1990 and 2021, the last two years in that range reveal far slower progress, reflecting pandemic-era stagnation. These findings underscore the vital role of undisturbed markets in sustaining the trajectory of human progress, as well as the vulnerability of political liberty in times of perceived crisis. The Inequality of Human Progress Index reveals that pandemic-driven shocks to the global economy slowed advances, halting the momentum of earlier growth across many measures of human well-being and stalling progress...
Though the Virtual Boy was both a commercial and critical failure, the console's infamy is part of what has made it such a fascinating piece of Nintendo's history. Original units are still going for hundreds of dollars on bidding sites, and hobbyists have spent years keeping the Virtual Boy alive through emulation and homebrew games. For a long while, it seemed like Nintendo wanted nothing more than for the public to forget that the Virtual Boy ever existed. But over time, the company has become more comfortable acknowledging and even joking about the system through references in games like Super Smash Bros. Melee, Tomodachi Life, and Luigi' …

Sam Altman responded to Anthropic's new Super Bowl ad in an X post on Wednesday, saying the OpenAI competitor's campaign is "clearly dishonest," and called it "on brand" for Anthropic to "doublespeak." "We would obviously never run ads in the way Anthropic depicts them," he wrote. "We are not stupid and we know our users would reject that." You can read his statement in full, below.
Anthropic, founded in 2021 by ex-OpenAI research executives who reportedly left over differences in opinions on AI safety and mission, doesn't mention OpenAI or ChatGPT by name in its Super Bowl Sunday ad campaign. But in contrast to OpenAI's January news that i …

Kei trucks are very versatile vehicles, but their stock powerplant can leave a bit to be desired. If you need more power, why not try an electric conversion?
[Ron “Mr. G” Grosinger] is a high school auto shop and welding teacher who worked with his students to replace the 40 hp gas motor in this Daihatsu Hijet with the 127 hp of a Hyper 9 electric motor. The motor sits in the original engine bay under the cab and is mated to the stock transmission with a custom adapter plate made from plate steel for less than $150. We really appreciate how they left all the electronics exposed to see what makes the conversion tick.
The faux battery was made by a foam sculptor friend out of urethane foam shaped with a...

I just love it when y’all send in your projects, so thanks, [Kai]! But were do I even begin with this one? Okay, so, first of all, you need to know that [Kai Ruhl] built an amazing split keyboard with plenty of keys for even someone like me. Be sure to check it out, because the build log is great reading.
Image by [Kai Ruhl] via Land of KainBut that wasn’t enough — a mousing solution was in order that didn’t require taking [Kai]’s hands off of the keyboard. And so, over the course of several months, the RollerMouse Keyboard came into being. That’s the creation you see here.
Essentially, this is an ortholinear split with a built-in roller bar mouse, which basically acts like a cylindrical...
J’ai actuellement la possibilité d’accueillir une nouvelle personne en analyse, soit en présentiel, soit à distance.
Depuis plusieurs années, j’ai pu vérifier que la psychanalyse en distanciel se déploie sans inconvénient : elle permet aussi d’instaurer ce « hors champ visuel » qui, depuis Freud, favorise la parole libre.
Pour comprendre plus en détail le cadre, l’esprit et les conditions de ma pratique, vous pouvez lire ce billet de présentation. Si vous souhaitez entrer en analyse avec moi, il vous suffit de me contacter par mail.
Des produits pour nourrissons ont été rappelés après la découverte de la contamination d’un ingrédient fourni par un industriel chinois. Plusieurs associations critiquent la gestion de cette crise par les autorités françaises. Certaines d’entre elles ont saisi la justice.
Depuis la fin du mois de janvier, les publicités pour le pendentif IA de la société friend.com s’affichent dans le métro parisien. Cet objet, qui rencontre un certain succès aux États-Unis, montre à quel point l’amitié est devenue un business comme un autre. Une économie des émotions qui, paradoxalement, risque de nous isoler davantage, comme nous le racontions dans le numéro d’octobre 2025 de FUTUR, le magazine d’Usbek & Rica.
Vous connaissez mon opinion que le sort des « cryptos » (jetons commercialisables) et de Trump sont à ce point liés que chacun joue le rôle de baromètre pour l’autre. P.S. Très logiquement – vu le potentiel à l’escroquerie de la chose – les Vénézuéliens avaient même pu utiliser les cryptos pour berner Trump !
