Jan 16, 12:01AM
In late spring last year, the Netherlands-based aerospace and defense giant Airbus Group announced a $150 million corporate venture capital fund.

Read MoreLyft Lowers Prices In Latest Rideshare War With Rival Uber
Jan 15, 9:45PM
Earlier this week I benefitted from a drop in Uber Pool pricing, noting my ride was a whole Starbucks medium-size latte less than Lyft Line. Lyft, fresh with a new billion dollars in funding, is now doing the same. Uber announced a reduction in price in more than 100 cities in the U.S. and Canada last week, most likely prompting Lyft to figure out the measures it would have to take to not lose… Read MoreTwitter, And Pretty Much Everyone Else, Had A Bad Day
Jan 15, 9:31PM
Today was not a good day for tech stocks. Universally tech stocks crashed today alongside everything else, erasing billions in value across the board, as part of a bad day overall for the market. There’s not a whole lot of confidence throughout the market, but tech — even bellwethers like Apple — weren’t safe today. That being said, some stocks got particularly… Read MoreWelcome Space Gal Emily Calandrelli To TechCrunch

We’re super pleased to say that Emily Calandrelli has joined up with TechCrunch to cover space, science and everything STEM related.

Jan 15, 8:44PM

Read MoreTwitter Updates Polling; Touts 1.7 Billion Votes

Twitter is making an update to its recently released polling feature; instead of a default 24-hour timeframe, poll lengths can range from five minutes to seven days.

The revelation comes as Twitter shares sink to a record low, with investors expressing concern… Read MoreNecessity Is Driving Agricultural Innovation Indoors
Jan 15, 8:00PM
According to the United Nations, the earth will house an estimated 9.7 billion people by 2050. Consequently, more food will need to be produced over the next four decades than has been produced over the last 10,000 years. And with more than 99.7 percent of global food coming from land, and most of the arable land already accounted for, increasing yields per surface area is essential. Read MoreOurMix Is Social Music Discovery Done Right
Jan 15, 7:18PM
Spotify does a great job at helping users find music they’ll, thanks to features like its popular “Discover Weekly” playlist filled with personalized recommendations, and sections that point you to trending tracks and new releases. But over the years, it’s moved away from its earlier emphasis on music discovery through your social network, which leaves room for other… Read MoreMeet The Startups Vying For The Crunchie For Fastest Rising Startup Of 2015

Read MoreF.lux Asks Apple To Let Its Screen Color Adjustment App Back Into App Store
Jan 15, 4:54PM
As many noted when Apple released its beta version of iOS earlier this week, one of the mobile operating system’s newest features, a nighttime reading mode with reduced blue light emissions, looked awfully familiar. The ability to adjust the screen brightness on iOS devices is something software maker F.lux has been developing for years. Its technology, which even briefly worked on… Read MoreVenture Capital Is Terrible At Online Shopping
Jan 15, 4:00PM
Another day, another series of Silicon Valley e-commerce explosions: Gilt Groupe just sold for a fraction of its valuation (and its capital raised) and One Kings Lane is reportedly the next to die. Previously it was Fab.com being sold for nothing after severely underperforming — ah, Fab, the first billion-dollar retail “unicorn” born with crossed eyes and a trick knee.

Jan 15, 3:41PM
Call it the Fidelity effect. According to a new MoneyTree Report from PricewaterhouseCoopers and the National Venture Capital Association, there appears to have been a chill in late-stage funding in the fourth quarter of last year, while investors continued stuffing money into seed- and early-stage investments. According to PWC and NVCA data, investors poured $375 million in 52 seed deals… Read MoreMicSwap Turns Your iPhone Into Rock And Roll
Jan 15, 3:24PM
If it’s been a long time since you’ve rock and rolled and it’s been a long lonely time since you did the stroll, it might be time to model some old-fashioned microphones on your iOS device. An app, MicSwap, makes it easy to do just that. Two musicians, Gary Levitt and Rob Behnke, created the app to offer microphone modeling for mobile devices. It can mimic famous mics –… Read MoreIBM Scoops Up IRIS Analytics Fraud Detection Firm
Jan 15, 3:11PM
Anyone who has a credit card has probably experienced some sort of fraud over the last few years. I personally have had it happen several times and I am by no means unique.

Jan 15, 2:58PM
What ended up being my favorite episode of CES 2016 was watching someone experience Las Vegas on their own terms. An avid gamer named @hardlyeverwrong was posting some frustration online about his hotel — the Luxor — that was preventing him from using his own PS4 in his hotel room. Below is his guide to bypassing the hotel television to use your own PS4 the next time you are in town Read MoreIf at any time you'd like to stop receiving these messages, just send an email to feeds_feedburner_com_techcrunch+unsubscribe-hmdtechnology=gmail.com@mail.feed2email.net.
