Sep 17, 5:00AM
There’s no denying that app fatigue is posing a challenge not just for new app discovery, but for new behavior discovery. So why don’t the most popular apps just enable the latest, greatest use cases and create an “open loop,” networking their existing apps? This article examines how the big players are campaigning to be the all-in-one app — and who stands a chance… Read MoreRobots pave the way for our sci-fi future now
Sep 17, 3:00AM
As robotics begins to leave controlled environments and navigate the real world alongside humans, the question remains: How will this affect the way we interact, work and talk to not only robots, but one another? Read MoreWhat do you call a 'non-entrepreneur? Cuba's best hackers
Sep 17, 1:00AM
What do you call an innovative person who builds a product out of nothing and launches something that will change people’s lives? Everywhere besides Cuba, you’d call this person an entrepreneur. You’d never expect in the land of communism, censorship and classic cars that you’d find a hotbed of entrepreneurship. Technically, it doesn’t exist. But in my eyes… Read MoreApple just killed one of the best battery saving hacks for your iPhone

There’s plenty to like about iOS 10 — assuming that it didn’t brick your iPhone or iPad, of course — but you probably don’t know that Apple has quietly killed off one of the neatest — and least-known — battery life hacks. Read MoreVenture capital is a hell of a drug
Sep 16, 11:00PM
Cheap and accessible capital has advantages: More founders get to pursue big dreams and previously “unfundable companies” not only raise huge amounts of money, but some achieve unicorn status. Discussions about the downside of this trend are usually about systemic risks, but few are discussing the problem as it relates to founders — but who is bearing this risk and what really… Read MoreThe FAA asks airlines to prohibit powering up or charging the Galaxy Note 7 on flights
Sep 16, 10:41PM
A day after the Consumer Product Safety Commission formally issued a recall of Samsung’s occasional explosion-making Galaxy Note 7, the FAA is offering a more strictly worded warning against the troubled phablet. A week or so ago, the Federal Aviation Administration issued a fairly benign suggestion, “strongly advis[ing] passengers not to turn on or charge these devices on board… Read MoreTwo million people streamed the NFL on Twitter last night and loved it
Sep 16, 10:12PM
The NFL just released numbers on last night’s debut of NFL’s Thursday Night Football on Twitter, and they are pretty damn good. More than 2M people watched the game on Twitter, compared to 48M who watched it on TV. The average user also spent 22 minutes watching on Twitter, compared to 25 minutes watching on TV (which is the only stat that is almost identical).

Sep 16, 9:16PM
Lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer people make up nearly 40% of the 1.6 million youth who experience homelessness every year. Meanwhile, trans people are almost four times more likely than the average American to be living on less than $10,000 a year.

Google Maps picks up mapping analytics and visualization startup Urban Engines

Sep 16, 8:00PM
Bots are becoming a part of our life. I wake up in the morning and tell Alexa to play my Brazilian samba, I let Amy set my meetings and I check stats and reports in Slack. Bot builders and users alike are starting to understand that bots are an integral part of our life. But what are the rules that govern these new tech friends?

Sep 16, 7:04PM

Sep 16, 5:10PM
