Le président américain a annoncé mercredi qu’il imposerait des droits de douane d’au moins 10 % sur toutes les importations aux Etats-Unis, avec des taux plus élevés pour des dizaines de pays dont ceux de l’UE (20 %) et la Chine (34 %). Pour la presse européenne, les dégâts économiques seront lourds.

Washington n’avait jamais érigé de telles barrières douanières depuis les années 1930. Il apparaît que leur montant a été évalué, pays par pays, sur la base de calculs sans assise scientifique.

Condamnée à une peine d’inéligibilité de cinq ans avec exécution provisoire, Marine Le Pen s’est empressée de fustiger la décision des juges. Ce faisant, la triple candidate à la présidence du pays laisse “transparaître au grand jour sa conception de l’État de droit”, analyse la “Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung”, en Allemagne.

La fuite d’informations confidentielles relatives aux frappes militaires contre les houthistes, au Yémen, sur l’application Signal renvoie l’image d’un gouvernement américain où l’amateurisme et la désinvolture règnent en maîtres, souligne cette chroniqueuse du “Wall Street Journal”.

Apple, Amazon, and other tech companies reliant on global supply chains stand to lose the most from Trump's trade policies, but some software firms expect more demand for their services.

The plethora of smart home devices available today deliver all manner of opportunities, but it’s fair to say that interfacing with them is more often done in the browser or an app than in the terminal. WattWise from [Naveen Kulandaivelu] is a tool which changes all that, it’s a command-line interface (CLI) for power monitoring smart plugs.
Written in Python, the tool can talk either directly to TP-Link branded smart plugs, or via Home Assistant. It tracks the power consumption with a simple graph, but the exciting part lies in how it can be used to throttle the CPU of a computer in order to use power at the points in the day when it is cheapest. You can find the code in a GitHub repository.

Des peines de trois et deux ans d’emprisonnement, partiellement assorties de sursis ainsi que des amendes, ont été requises contre le spécialiste du mobilier du XVIIIᵉ siècle Bill Pallot et l’ébéniste Bruno Desnoues, qui ont reconnu avoir fabriqué et vendu de faux sièges royaux. Les avocats de la galerie Kraemer et de son dirigeant ont plaidé la relaxe.

Cynthia Erivo's Elphaba, Ariana Grande's Glinda, and more familiar Wizard of Oz characters star in the sequel musical, out in November.

The President’s one-man trade war was already hurting the economy. His expansive new tariffs will make things worse.

Tortoise “Oganesson”
I bought a copy of Tortoise’s TNT when I was a teenager in art school. It was highly acclaimed in the music magazines I read at the time, and very much the kind of CD you bought to be cool and smart in the late 1990s. I liked it well enough and it included at least two songs that I put on mix tapes for a while (partly so I could seem cool and smart), but it mostly went over my head. I had almost no context for jazz or fusion, though I think hearing TNT was crucial in getting started with those genres. Jump ahead a few decades, and now I do have a lot of necessary context for Tortoise and appreciate their music far more than I did when I was young. “Oganesson,” the first track the...

President Donald Trump says taxing imports will strengthen domestic manufacturing. Hours before announcing new tariffs, his administration cut support for centers that help US firms do just that.

The Heard and McDonald Islands are among the dozens of targets of President Donald Trump's latest round of tariffs. But they have no exports, because no one lives there.

La nouvelle ère protectionniste de Trump
Faire exploser le système commercial mondial a des conséquences que le président se garde bien d’annoncer.
Le président Trump a dévoilé mercredi ses nouveaux droits de douane pour le « jour de la libération », qui constituent un nouveau grand pas vers une nouvelle ère de protectionnisme commercial. En supposant que cette politique se maintienne – et nous espérons que ce ne sera pas le cas -, elle équivaut à une tentative de refonte de l’économie américaine et du système commercial mondial.
Tous les détails ne sont pas clairs à l’heure où nous écrivons ces lignes, mais les tarifs douaniers de M. Trump n’ont de « réciproque » que le nom....

Somewhere in the universe, there’s a place that lists every x86 operating system from scratch. Not just some bootloaders, or just a kernel stub, but documentation to build a fully functional, interrupt-handling, multitasking-capable OS. [Erik Helin and Adam Renberg] did just that by documenting every step in The Little Book About OS Development.
This is not your typical dry academic textbook. It’s a hands-on, step-by-step guide aimed at hackers, tinkerers, and developers who want to demystify kernel programming. The book walks you through setting up your environment, bootstrapping your OS, handling interrupts, implementing virtual memory, and even tackling system calls and multitasking. It provides just...

Russell T. Davies explains the scheduling that could either be perfectly timed, or the complete opposite.

Last week, Apple announced that lossless audio and ultra low latency would be coming to the AirPods Max with USB-C. It was a pleasant surprise for owners of Apple’s over-ear headphones, which have fallen behind the AirPods Pro in recent years when it comes to offering new features. The company briefly hit a snag in releasing the firmware update necessary for the AirPods Max to unlock these newfound capabilities, but resolved the issue on Wednesday afternoon. Firmware version 7E99 was supposed to arrive early this week alongside iOS 18.4 and macOS Sequoia 15.4. But late in the day Tuesday, Apple added an unusual “coming soon” asterisk next to the AirPods Max on a support site that lists each device’s...

After years of rumors, Nintendo has finally announced a release date for the Switch 2. The long-awaited successor to the Switch will be available on June 5th for $449.99, bringing a handing of games and accessories along with it. It will be available for preorder in the US from select retailers starting on April 9th, as both a standalone console and as a limited-edition bundle with Mario Kart World for $499.99. As predicted, the Switch 2 features a larger 7.9-inch LCD display, with support for 1080p resolution and HDR, 256GB of built-in storage, and up to 6.5 hours of battery life. The Joy-Cons are bigger, too, and now magnetically attach to the console instead of relying on a pair of sliding rails to snap...

The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker is coming in the Switch 2's GameCube collection at launch. Before this morning, I knew I was going to buy the Nintendo Switch 2 but I didn’t know when. After watching Nintendo’s Switch 2 Direct today, in which a purple block traced the GameCube’s stylized “G” logo, followed by high-res footage from The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker and F-Zero GX and an announcement that they’ll be playable at launch, I realized I’ll be doing my damndest to get it on day one. It was the cherry on top of a stellar presentation that made the console’s $449.99 price tag way easier to swallow. GameCube games are coming to the Nintendo Switch Online (NSO) subscription’s Classic...

The Nintendo Switch 2 is basically a bigger, more capable Switch. The Switch 2 is here — well, almost. Nintendo took the wraps off its new console during its latest Direct event, providing us with a closer look at the $449.99 console ahead of its release on June 5th. In many ways, the sequel is a generational leap from the original console / handheld hybrid that rocked the gaming world over eight years ago. Nintendo is building upon the successful foundation it laid with the original Switch by offering a larger screen, more internal storage, and magnetic Joy-Con controllers that can operate like mice. It’s also introducing some new features, like GameChat, which lets players make...

NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month)is shutting down after more than 20 years of hosting its annual challenge for writers. In a video and an email sent to community members, the nonprofit organization explains that it can no longer continue “after years of financial struggles.”  Before officially becoming a nonprofit in 2006, NaNoWriMo started out with just 21 writers in 1999. More than 400,000 writers participated in NaNoWriMo’s programs that challenged people to finish writing a novel within the month of November in 2022. In 2023, many writers abandoned NaNoWriMo after it refused to take a stand against the use of AI tools in writing. Around the same time, one of its moderators faced child...

In the race to build the most capable LLMs, several tech companies have sourced copyrighted content for use as training data, without obtaining permission from content owners.
Many of those companies are now being sued for alleged copyright infringement. The list includes Meta, which faces a class action lawsuit filed by authors Richard Kadrey, Sarah Silverman, and Christopher Golden, among others.
This case has a clear piracy angle, as Meta used BitTorrent to download archives of pirated books to use as training material. Notably, the authors argue that, in addition to copying pirated books from Anna’s Archive and Z-Library, in the same process Meta also uploaded pirated books to third parties.
Last month,...

Macro pads are handy for opening up your favorite programs or executing commonly used keyboard shortcuts. But why stop there?
That’s what [Jeroen Brinkman] must have been thinking while creating the Programmer’s Macro Pad. Based on the Arduino Pro Micro, this hand-wired pad is unique in that a single press of any of its 16 keys can virtually “type” out multiple lines of text. In this case, it’s a capability that’s being used to prevent the user from having to manually enter in commonly used functions, declarations, and conditional statements.
For example, in the current firmware, pressing the “func” key will type out a boilerplate C function: int () { //
;
return 0;
}; // f It will also enter...

Los Angeles is under a state mandate to add 250,000 new housing units by the end of the decade. To help speed up progress during the remaining five years, UCLA’s urban think tank cityLAB has launched a design competition . Contestants can submit proposals for low-cost, easy-to-build starter homes on vacant city-owned lots, which are smaller than a quarter acre. The deadline to enter is April 7. Working with the city, particularly the mayor’s office, CityLab has identified 12 lots that are scattered across LA, and each would have three to 20 units, says Dana Cuff, a professor of architecture at UCLA and the director of cityLAB. However, a few factors have prevented development in general, she explains:...

Tattoos. Body paint. Henna. All these are popular kinds of body art with varying histories and cultural connotations, many going back centuries or even longer. They all have something in common, though—they all change how the body reflects light back to the viewer. What if, instead, body art could shine a light of its very own?
This is the precise topic which [Katherine Connell] came to discuss at the 2024 Hackaday Supercon. Her talk concerns rethinking body art with the use of light emitting diodes—and is both thoroughly modern and aesthetically compelling. Beyond that, it’s an engineering development story with liquid metal and cutting-edge batteries that you simply don’t want to miss! [Katherine]...
