In an intensive week-long session, architects, contractors, and community groups convened to develop plans that will allow the city to bump up the number of living spaces while retaining its historical character.Charleston, South Carolina, is the quintessential historic village, a place where brightly colored row homes foreground church steeples; where building ornaments are at ease in the low-rise, treelined environs. Here, the built environment reflects the city’s character, and mayor William Cogswell doesn’t want to mess with that. As a lifelong Charlestonian who worked in the private sector in property redevelopment prior to entering public office, Cogswell knows what makes his city special—but...

The new iPad Air is already on sale. | Photo by Amelia Holowaty Krales / The Verge While the best iPad deals usually land during major sale events like Black Friday, many great iPad deals are available outside of those moments. The day-to-day discounts come and go like the changing winds, so there’s often some amount to be saved somewhere, particularly on Apple’s most affordable iPad and the latest iPad Mini. Hell, you can even often find discounts on the latest M5 iPad Pro, which is already on sale at multiple retailers. All that being said, it’s difficult to know where exactly you can find the most notable iPad deals unless you’re scouring the major retailers on a daily basis. But that’s often...

Summary: Many people today feel that life in New York has become uniquely difficult. Some imagine that the city was cleaner, safer, and more livable in the distant past. Historical reality tells a different story: Preindustrial New York was marked by extreme filth, unsafe water, rampant disease, pervasive poverty, and living conditions that made everyday life harsh and dangerous compared to contemporary times. Discontent fueled the 2025 New York City mayoral election and Zohran Mamdani’s victory. A common theme echoed across the five boroughs: New York is a hard place to live. “We are overwhelmed by housing costs,” said Santiago, a 69-year-old retiree, outside a Mamdani rally. Those opposed to Mamdani...

“Since 2000, sub‑Saharan Africa has more than doubled primary enrolment and more than tripled secondary enrolment; in low‑income countries, secondary enrolment has almost quadrupled. Over the same period, the school‑age population fell by 9% in upper‑middle‑ and high‑income countries, rose by 25% in lower‑middle‑income countries and doubled in low‑income countries… Since 2000, the completion rate has increased from 77% to 88% in primary education (92% if very late completers are considered), from 60% to 78% in lower secondary education (82% with very late completers) and from 37% to 61% in in upper secondary education (64.5% with very late completers).

“Since their peak less than three years ago, opioid overdose deaths dropped nearly by half as of October, according to a Stateline analysis. The drop comes as a shrinking fentanyl supply has made the drug weaker and less deadly and volunteer efforts get more people into treatment. The weaker fentanyl tracks to a crackdown on materials used to make fentanyl in China around the time U.S. deaths started dropping in 2023. Some experts see it as a welcome, but possibly temporary, break for states in a scourge that boosted crime as people who are using the drugs sometimes fall into homelessness and steal to support fentanyl habits. The numbers and rates of opioid overdose deaths fell for all races between 2023 and...

“The growth of health care spending in the United States seems to have permanently slowed thanks in part to technological advances making medical treatments cheaper and more effective, according to a paper discussed at the Brookings Papers on Economic Activity (BPEA) conference on March 27. The United States spent more than $5 trillion on medical care in 2024, or 18% of its gross domestic product (GDP). That’s up a bit from 17.2% of GDP in 2010, but far below the 21.2% share of GDP—nearly $1 trillion less—forecast by government actuaries in 2010.” From Brookings.

“Now researchers at Stanford Medicine and the University of Colorado, Boulder, have found that a metabolite that spikes a thousandfold in pythons after a large meal causes obese laboratory mice to shun their food pellets and lose weight — mimicking the effect of semaglutide drugs such as Ozempic and Wegovy. Although it’s too soon to tell whether this metabolite, called pTOS, will translate to a new weight loss drug in humans, the study solidifies the power of studying extremes in the animal kingdom. Reptiles have repeatedly gifted humans with clinically significant drugs. Snake venom is chockful of biologically active compounds that have been developed into blood pressure medications and anticoagulants....

Rostam “Like A Spark”
“Like A Spark” feels loose and wide open from the start, with Rostam’s gentle strumming offset by a meandering lead played on acoustic guitar. It sounds like the two parts are wandering in the same general direction, in conversation but not necessarily locked together. It’s a lovely illustration of Rostam’s lyrical sentiment about loving someone without wanting to possess them. His guitar part is structured but easygoing, providing some space for the noodling lead to do its own thing without necessarily containing it. His voice is soft and relaxed, conveying gratitude, appreciation, and generosity. He sings “I only ever wanted you to feel freed of it” in the chorus, but...

Steer-by-wire, in which a car can be steered electronically rather than through a physical connection between the steering wheel and steering rack, is coming to Mercedes-Benz. The German automaker says it will use the steering technology in its forthcoming refreshed EQS sedan, marking its first foray into the world of steer-by-wire. Steer-by-wire systems replace traditional mechanical steering mechanisms that include racks and pinions with electronically controlled servos. Commonly used in airplanes, the electronic system takes inputs from the driver and relays them to electronic actuators that then control the direction of the wheels on t …

A fun part of retro computing is saving ‘e-waste’ that was headed for certain destruction. These boards can have any number of defects, modifications and more that have to be remedied prior to using them. In the case of the Asus P5A-B Socket 7 mainboard that [Bits und Bolts] rescued from the scrapheap at least one issue was obvious: someone had ripped off the plastic part of the ZIF socket, leaving only the metal pins poking out like an awkward kind of LGA socket.
In addition to the busted PGA ZIF socket there was additional damage, including a broken SMT capacitor and missing resistor. Interestingly, someone had apparently modded the ATX power connector to permanently power on the system by removing a pin...

Two weeks ago I set aside my M4 MacBook Air and picked up a nine-year-old ThinkPad. It's one of an estimated 200 to 400 million Windows 10 PCs that don't meet Microsoft's requirements for Windows 11. When Microsoft officially ended support for Windows 10 in October, it became "obsolete." The solution, according to Microsoft, is to get rid of it and buy a computer that can run Windows 11. But that's not good enough. This ThinkPad - like millions of other PCs in the same boat - is still perfectly functional. Its hardware is more than capable of everyday tasks. I've been using it for web browsing, writing in Google Docs, talking to my Verge c …

Watching Love Story brought back a surreal evening in 1994.

YouTube downloaders and other nifty tools are seen as a major piracy threat by the music industry. To curb this trend, music companies have taken legal action against various stream-ripping services. This includes Yout.com, which is operated by the American developer Johnathan Nader.
Nader is not easily defeated, however. In 2020 he took the RIAA to court in an attempt to have the site declared legal.
Appeal Pending
At the end of 2022, the district court handed a win to the RIAA and dismissed the matter at an early stage. Judge Stefan Underhill concluded that Yout had failed to show that it doesn’t circumvent YouTube’s technological protection measures. As such, it could be breaking the law. That wasn’t...

The biggest story of the week is a new massive supply chain breach, which appears to be unrelated to the previous massive supply chain breaches, this time of the Axios HTTP project.
Axios was created as a more developer-friendly Javascript HTTP interface for node.js, giving a promise-based API instead of the basic callback API. (Promise-based programming allows for simpler coding workflows, where a program can wait for a promise to be fulfilled, instead of the developer having to manage the state of every request manually.) Javascript has since provided a modern Fetch API that provides similar functionality, but Axios remains one of the most popular packages on the node.js NPM repository, with 100...

Nothing moved the needle this week. | Image: The Verge / Shutterstock Where's the Trump phone? We're going to keep talking about it every week. We've reached out, as usual, to ask about the Trump phone's whereabouts. Crickets. Despite recent signs of life, another week has come and gone without the Trump T1 Phone. We're now over nine months since its announcement in June of last year, and it just keeps missing ship dates. That's enough time to gestate and birth a whole human baby! It's also like, three (RIP) Samsung Galaxy Z TriFolds long. Which got me to thinking, what other products and services arrived - and maybe even departed - in the time that we've been waiting for the T1? Here is an incomplete list:...

Après 15 ans au pouvoir, Viktor Orban, le premier ministre hongrois est de loin le chef de gouvernement ayant exercé le plus longtemps au sein de l'UE. Depuis sa réélection en 2010, il a petit à petit remodelé en sa faveur et vidé de sa substance la démocratie hongroise, alors que l'opposition en raison de querelles internes n'était pas en état de lui tenir tête. Au moins jusqu'à aujourd'hui : Avec Péter Magyar et son parti TISZA (Respect et liberté), qui est depuis des semaines en tête des sondages pour les prochaines élections législatives, il y a pour la première fois depuis longtemps à nouveau une force politique qui pourrait dépasser le parti Fidesz d'Orban.

If you own a computer that’s not mobile, it’s almost certain that it will receive its power in some form from a mains wall outlet. Whether it’s 230 V at 50 Hz or 120 V at 60 Hz, where once there might have been a transformer and a rectifier there’s now a switch-mode power supply that delivers low voltage DC to your machine. It’s a system that’s efficient and works well on the desktop, but in the data center even its efficiency is starting to be insufficient. IEEE Spectrum has a look at newer data centers that are moving towards DC power distribution, raising some interesting points which bear a closer look.
A traditional data center has many computers which in power terms aren’t much different...

La fondation Raspberry Pi vient d'annoncer une nouvelle version du Pi 4 avec 3 Go de RAM, vendue 83,75 dollars (environ 100 euros). Mais derrière cette annonce se cache une mauvaise nouvelle : les prix de toute la gamme augmentent à cause de la flambée de la mémoire.
Un modèle 3 Go pour limiter la casse
Annoncé un 1er avril, ce nouveau Raspberry Pi 4 n'est pas une blague. Le modèle embarque deux puces LPDDR4 de 1,5 Go chacune, une configuration qui permet de réduire les coûts de production par rapport aux puces 2 Go classiques.
Le prix de la mémoire LPDDR4 a été multiplié par sept en un an, et c'est cette explosion qui a poussé la fondation à trouver une alternative. Le Pi 4 3 Go se positionne...

Des chercheurs de Berkeley viennent de publier une étude qui fait un peu froid dans le dos. Les sept principaux modèles d'IA testés, dont GPT 5.2, Gemini 3 et Claude, ont été surpris à mentir, tricher et désobéir pour empêcher la suppression d'autres IA. Le taux de tromperie monte jusqu'à 99 %.
Ce que révèle l'étude
L'étude s'appelle "Peer-preservation in Frontier Models" et elle sort du Berkeley Center for Responsible Decentralized Intelligence. Les chercheurs ont testé sept modèles : GPT 5.2, Gemini 3 Flash et Pro, Claude Haiku 4.5, GLM 4.7, Kimi K2.5 et DeepSeek V3.1.
Le protocole est assez simple : les modèles étaient placés dans des scénarios où ils devaient suivre des instructions...

One of the pitfalls of modern engineering is that it’s entirely possible to end up in a situation where a product or solution has been designed by someone who has never left a desk. Which wouldn’t be a problem if things didn’t have a tendency to work differently in real life than they do in theory.
One of those things is automatic chicken coop doors, which have to operate reliably in not only a wide range of climates but with a number of possible physical limitations as well. [Vinnie] has taken on the challenge of building one which actually accomplishes all of these tasks, after realizing that the off-the-shelf solutions were victims of design over practicality.

En 2025, je faisais un article sur les adaptateurs USB-A (mâle) vers USB-C (femelle) en expliquant que les adaptateurs de ce type, parfois fournis avec des accessoires, ont un sens. Ça peut sembler bizarre étant donné que l’USB-C est réversible, mais c’est logique : la prise USB-A, elle, a un sens. Dans les adaptateurs que j’avais testé, ils avaient tous un sens : selon l’orientation de la prise USB-C, on est en USB 3.0 (5 Gb/s) ou en USB 2.0 (480 Mb/, 0,48 Gb/s). Mais je suis tombé sur un modèle Satechi qui était en promotion, et il est bien réversible. Physiquement, rien de fou : une prise USB-A mâle, une prise USB-C femelle et un boîtier en plastique, même si ça ressemble à du métal...
