Jun 02, 1:47AM
Donald Trump took to the White House Rose Gardens this afternoon to announce his plans to withdraw the U.S. from the Paris climate agreement, and reactions from the leaders of some of the world’s biggest companies have been pouring in since. Within hours, Tesla CEO Elon Musk followed up on his promise to depart the president’s advisory team if we withdrew. Shortly thereafter,… Read MoreOneLogin admits recent breach is pretty dang serious

OneLogin, a major access management service (think corporate-level password manager) alerted its users yesterday of “unauthorized access” to the data of its US-based users.

Read MoreUS approves social media background checks for visa applicants
Jun 01, 11:43PM
The U.S. is buttressing its paperwork walls with new requirements for social media disclosures as part of revised visa applications. Reported by Reuters earlier today, the decision from the U.S. government’s Office of Management and Budget was made over strenuous objections from education and academic groups during a public comment period. The new questionnaire will ask for social… Read MoreThe DJI Spark is fun, but not the mainstream drone we were promised
Jun 01, 11:18PM
The Spark is, at once, an impressive feat of engineering and a reminder that drones are a ways from being true mainstream devices. It’s DJI’s smallest and cheapest drone by far, and the company also has tossed in some neat gesture control tricks that make you feel like Luke Skywalker for the 16 minutes it’s in the air. But there are still a lot of kinks to work out. Read MoreBumble is opening a physical space in New York for dates to meet up
Jun 01, 10:05PM
What do popular dating apps and brick-and-mortar storefronts have in common? Until now, nothing. But that’s about to change, as Bumble, the popular female-led dating app is opening a pop-up location in New York City. Read MoreThe meeting that showed me the truth about VCs
Jun 01, 10:00PM
I recently had a meeting with a well-known Israeli startup investor. The talk somehow pivoted from my seed-seeking startup into talking about the macro view of venture capital and how it doesn’t actually make sense. “Ninety-five percent of VCs aren’t profitable,” he said. It took me a while to understand what this really means. Read MoreVoiceitt lets people with speech impairments use voice-controlled technology
Jun 01, 9:47PM
Voice-controlled technology like Amazon Echo, Siri or hands-free features in Google Maps are things we’re starting to take for granted. But as Mary Meeker’s 2017 Internet Trends Report noted, voice controls are changing computer-human interfaces, and industries, broadly. Read MoreDraper's DragonflEye cyber-bug takes flight
Jun 01, 9:19PM
Back in January we heard about Draper’s efforts to outfit a living dragonfly with a sort of solar-powered mind control backpack. This project, known as DragonflEye, is cruising right along, and the R&D firm just released a video of the modified insect taking flight.

Jun 01, 9:07PM
Amidst an array of enterprise companies that have jumped on the IPO bandwagon following Snap’s successful IPO (aside from its more recent whiff of an earnings report), Blue Apron appears to be the next major consumer IPO. That’s important, because it continues the tone that both enterprise and consumer companies see an opportunity to go public. Read MoreYext passes its first test as a publicly traded company
Jun 01, 8:59PM
Yext’s first earnings report as a publicly traded company seems to be a boringly pleasant one — but that’s a good thing for a company that needs to show strong performance out of the gate. Read MoreVenture investors blast US decision to withdraw from Paris Climate Accord

Jun 01, 8:08PM
There is no such thing as too many rainbows. For LGBTQ Pride Month, Instagram is rolling out a special set of pride-flavored features, including a sticker set (Instagram has stickers now, you’ve probably noticed) and a rainbow brush. Did I mention you can never have too many rainbows? Read MoreElon Musk leaving Trump advisory councils following Paris agreement withdrawal
Jun 01, 8:07PM
Elon Musk is making good on his promise to leave President Trump’s White House advisory councils, he said today on Twitter.

Intel CEO Brian Krzanich was interviewed at Code Conference on Thursday, where he talked about his long-term vision for automobiles.

Jun 01, 7:53PM
Google still has plans to introduce built-in advertising filters for its Chrome web browser, according to a new report from the Wall Street Journal, but it’s going to be more of a quality assurance feature, akin to existing tools in Chrome that prevent pop-ups from spawning in excess, and that warn users when they might be exposed to content that could harm their devices. The report… Read MoreThe reMarkable tablet is original and ambitious, unlike pretty much all the other ones
Jun 01, 7:05PM
Years ago I called for a black and white computer, and that strange desire still lives within me today. While no one has yet taken me up on this amazing idea, the monochrome devices that do exist have improved, yet are still frustratingly limited in their capabilities. That’s why the reMarkable tablet is such a pleasure to me. They went full e-paper. Read MoreStripe launches Sigma, a new analytics tool to help businesses track payments data
