9TO5MAC.COMWith iPhone 17 Pro Max, Apple may finally grant this years-old wishThis fall Apple will launch four new iPhones, including the ultra-thin iPhone 17 Air. But with the iPhone 17 Pro Max, the company is leaning hard in the opposite direction, and thus fulfilling the wish of many users over the years for the most battery life possible. iPhone 17 Pro Max battery getting bigger than ever In a year where a thinner, lighter flagship iPhone is being introduced, Apple isnât forgetting the age-old request for a model that does the opposite. Do you want the most possible battery life in your next iPhone? Appleâs about to grant that wish with the iPhone 17 Pro Max. Current Pro Max models already boast impressive battery life. That was true before the iPhone 16 Pro Max, which got larger than before and packed extra battery life too. The changes Apple made to the Pro line last year even made my smaller iPhone 16 Proâs battery feel just right. But the 16 Pro Max offers, per Appleâs website, up to 33 hours of video playback with its massive battery. This is up from the 29 hours quoted for the iPhone 15 Pro Max. And this year, itâs getting even better. Rumors have indicated the iPhone 17 Pro Max is getting thicker to make space for a larger battery. Is current battery life not good enough? Iâd argue itâs plenty, but Iâm not the Pro Maxâs target customer. Perhaps inspired by the Apple Watch Ultraâs popularity, it seems Apple will give many users exactly what they want: the biggest battery possible. This is partly why I believe we could see this yearâs Pro Max rebranded as iPhone 17 Ultra. Whether that happens or not, though, Apple plans to offer flagship models for two very different customer preferences. Want thin and light? iPhone 17 Air is the answer. Prefer a beast of a phone with over-the-top battery life? This yearâs iPhone 17 Pro Max will make that happen more than ever before. Do you want more battery life on your iPhone? Or would you prefer a thinner model? Let us know in the comments. Best iPhone accessories Add 9to5Mac to your Google News feed. FTC: We use income earning auto affiliate links.

FUTURISM.COMTech CEOs Realizing They Made a Terrible Mistake by Supporting TrumpTech CEOs rallied behind Donald Trump in hopes that he would lower regulations and increase profits â and although he's already done the former, the latter now seems like a pipe dream.As Vox reports, any gains tech companies have gleaned from Trump's deregulation are minuscule in comparison to the economic havoc the president has wreaked with his foolhardy tariffs.As the election ramped up last July, tech venture capitalists Marc Andreessen and Ben Horowitz insisted in a Substack blog post that the only way for the United States to maintain "economic and technological preeminence" over China and its "much darker, more totalitarian" policies would be, essentially, to beat our erstwhile trading partner.Shortly thereafter, the monied pair revealed on their podcast that they were all-in for Trump despite being lifelong Democrats because he was, to their minds, America's last best hope at defeating China and becoming the tech utopia they've always wanted.Though such warmongering sentiments are clearly behind the president's enormous tariffs on Chinese goods, it also undermines the Silicon Valley CEOs who lined up to kiss his ring because, to put it bluntly, almost all the components for American tech are made in China.Beyond cutting tech manufacturers off from their Chinese suppliers, the tariffs have also sent shockwaves through the global economy and brought the United States to the brink of a recession. The trickle-down effect from the tariffs has been more like a waterfall, with tech companies going bankrupt, canceling IPOs, and losing billions in share value.Though Silicon Valley's biggest Trump supporters haven't started publicly trashing dear leader just yet, one need look no further than the never-ending drama between the president and his unelected aide Elon Musk to see just how badly this administration's trade war is messing with Big Tech.Earlier in April, the billionaire began a fiery spat with Peter Navarro, the president's trade and manufacturing adviser, calling the Trump surrogate "dumber than a sack of bricks" as they traded barbs over whether or not the tariffs are a good idea. While that drama played out on Musk's social network, the multi-hyphenate business owner allegedly implored Trump in private to reconsider the tariffs â a scheme that clearly did not work.With the stock market rebound following the president's announcement of yet another 90-day pause on his reciprocal tariffs â for everyone except China, of course â it's not a huge surprise that the tech CEOs who threw their weight and money behind Trump are not talking smack where other people can hear.Behind closed doors, however, there's unquestionably a lot of hand-wringing and regret going on as these short-sighted Silicon Valley-ers look at economic forecasts for the coming years.More on tech: Google Is Helping Government Build an AI-Powered Border Surveillance SystemShare This Article0 Reacties 0 aandelen 78 Views

WWW.SCIENTIFICAMERICAN.COMLifesaving Alzheimerâs Research Delayed by Trump Funding CutsApril 18, 20255 min readLifesaving Alzheimerâs Research Delayed by Trump Funding CutsThe Trump administration is freezing, delaying and revoking funding for dementia research, setting back discoveries of potential future treatmentsBy Allison Parshall edited by Jeanna Bryner Flavio Coelho/Getty ImagesOn Monday, March 24, Charles DeCarli received an order from the federal government to stop work on his nationwide study of dementia. As the director of the University of California, Davisâs federally funded Alzheimerâs Disease Research Center, DeCarli studies the vascular risk factors, such as diabetes and hypertension, that contribute to 15 to 25 percent of dementia cases. These factors are poorly understood, and there is no Food and Drug Administrationâapproved treatment to target them.DeCarli had been anxious for weeks as the Trump administration threatened to cut funding for research it considered to be related to DEI (diversity, equity and inclusion). âThis study has the word âdiverseâ in its title, and so I was a little bit concerned that maybe I was going to be a target,â DeCarli says. Vascular risk factors of dementia affect certain groups, such as Black and Hispanic or Latino Americans, more than others. The studyâs researchers, located at 28 sites across the U.S., were working against a ticking clock to enroll most of their participants by September.Then the National Institutes of Health told them their nearly $36-million grant, awarded during the first Trump administration, had been terminated: the work âno longer effectuates agency prioritiesâ because of its basis in âartificial and non-scientific categories,â the letter read. The team immediately scrambled to determine what to do with the hundreds of thousands of blood samples awaiting analysis and to notify participants that their appointments had been canceled.On supporting science journalismIf you're enjoying this article, consider supporting our award-winning journalism by subscribing. By purchasing a subscription you are helping to ensure the future of impactful stories about the discoveries and ideas shaping our world today.After weeks of turmoil, the NIH granted an appeal from DeCarli and reinstated the projectâs funding last Friday. âThe analogy would be something like: You had a fire in your store. It didnât destroy the store, but now you have to take inventory, order new supplies, repaint the inside ... and hope your clients come back,â he says. Right now DeCarli fears the team wonât meet its enrollment targets and will have to reevaluate the study.The case illustrates the cascading effects on scientific advances of even a temporary funding termination, delay or freeze. These disruptions are happening at Alzheimerâs Disease Research Centers (ADRCs) across the country. Of the 35 NIH-funded centers, 14 reportedly hang in limbo because their funding is due to expire on April 30 but hasnât been renewed. These 14 centers include some that maintain banks of brains that were donated to science by people who suffered from dementia upon their death. As part of its sweeping cuts targeted at Columbia University, the Trump administration has reportedly revoked $3 million in grants to the universityâs own ADRC, which studies the causes of Alzheimerâs disease.Scientific American spoke with DeCarli about the effect that these funding disruptions will have on our understanding of dementiaâs causes and the development of new treatments.[An edited transcript of the interview follows.]Whatâs the prognosis on your study now that your funding has been reinstated?Now I am in the mode to save the studyâthatâs the simplest way to say itâbecause itâs difficult to tell 1,700 people, âThe study has been canceled,â and then [say], âCome back; it didn't happen.â We may not meet our recruitment goalsâin fact, I would go as far as to say weâre unlikely to be able to meet our recruitment goals. Then we have to reevaluate the science side of thingsâbecause if we donât get to our goal, then we donât get the longitudinal effect [the measurement of change over time in participantsâ health], so then we donât get to see the changes that we had expected. So we get less return on the investment. Itâs a challenge. Weâll make do with whatever we have.But this has a ripple effect thatâs going to last much longer than just this event. This sends fear into people who are working on this study and others.Whatâs happening at the other Alzheimerâs Disease Research Centers?All the centers get reviewed in a staggered three-year cycle. Weâre in the midst of one of those three-year cycles [for more than a dozen of the 35 research centers]. The reviews are completed, but no actions have been taken [by the NIH to renew the funding]. So there are centers whose funding, technically, is going to end [on April 30], and yet they donât know their status.AndHow would you say that this uncertainty will affect the work scientists are doing to figure out the causes of dementia and to find new treatments?It can affect this work in a number of different ways. First off, certain research projects may never come to fruition. They get disrupted, theyâre not able to get back on track, and that work doesnât get done. Second, our participants lose trust in what weâre doing because weâre not able to continue what weâre doing in a reliable manner.Third, the future researchers, who [will one day] do their own independent research..., may not make it. Theyâre the ones who bring the new ideas and innovations. You know, an old man like me is not going to come up with great, brilliant new ideas. The real novel stuff comes from the young people. [For Alzheimerâs disease especially], we need to be looking in other directions.It also harms the unity when certain universities are selected for criticism and blanket funding cuts, such as Columbia, [the University of Pennsylvania], Harvard [University], Yale [University]âthese all have ADRCs. We have a network that accomplishes greater things together than the individual centers could ever possibly accomplish. But like in any networkâlike the brainâif the nodes break, it potentially harms the whole network.How would this harm to the network translate to the lives of people? For exampleâdementia runs in my family, and I feel like there is a ticking clock for many of my loved ones. Will this affect us?Disruptions delay discovery. We would hate to have people succumb to an illness that could have been treated or prevented, had the research continued. I take the cancer analogy: great progress has been made in 10 years with some diseases that killed hundreds of thousands of people before. Well, itâs the same thing. Dementia is killing hundreds of thousands of people. We would like to prevent that from happening, but the more barriers that are put up, the longer itâs going to take us to get there. We may still get there. But five, 10, 20 years could go by.It certainly will delay innovation and creativity. You know, creativity blossoms in a healthy environment. If Iâm feeling under attack, I know what I doâI retreat to what I know best.But one of the things I remain hopeful about is that we may begin to understand the multitude of biological pathways that lead to dementiaâand not just [those that are] focused on Alzheimerâs pathology. The more we understand and expand [our understanding of dementia in all of its forms], the better weâre going to understand how the brain works and how to keep the brain healthy. In the end, itâs helping people stay alive, right? Our vision statement for our ADRC is âa lifetime of brain health for all.âI donât know that Iâll live to the time that this happens, but the ultimate goal is to identify what it is that keeps our brain healthy throughout our lifespan and alleviate dementia by understanding these mechanisms and by developing precise methods to overcome them.0 Reacties 0 aandelen 65 Views

WWW.ARCHITECTURALDIGEST.COMRuggable Sale 2025: Discounts on AD-Approved Styles for SpringRuggable is our go-to retailer for washable rugs at a realistic price point. AD collaborated with the LA-based brand not once, but twiceâfirst with our New American Voice collection, and then again this January, when we launched a second collaboration featuring Art Deco-inspired textiles and splashy geometric patterns. Designs across the site are blessedly 10% off for their End of Season Sale using the code BYESPRING, with select styles up to 40% off (including some of ours) from April 18 to 23.Weâve tested many of these pieces firsthand, and can confirm that these are properly machine-washable, meaning everything your vacuum promised you it would get out and then didnât is resolved with one heavy duty cycle in a Whirlpool. Some other pros: These are water-resistant, made from performance fabric, and come with a non-slip rug pad. If youâre on the search for a runner, an outdoor rug, or something extra inviting for your entryway, itâs all below. Weâd especially recommend these picks for parents and pet-owners: these are more than just rugs, theyâre lifestyle upgrades.Plus, Ruggableâs design reach is extensiveâtheyâve collaborated with the likes of Jonathan Adler, Iris Apfel, Morris & Coâthe list goes on. Whatever your style, thereâs a machine-washable rug suited for you, and on sale.Ruggable Cyrus Rose Gold Tufted RugThis rug feels ornate, Old World, and royalâa perfect addition to a living room with a sense of occasion, or a formal dining room. The rose gold colorway particularly suits a bohemian look, but the blue variations make for a great indoor-outdoor rug moment, on a patio or screened-in porch. That, and itâs water-resistant, stain-resistant, and machine-washable, like all Ruggable designs.Ruggable Astrid Off White Tufted RugFor those who love the look of a classic Beni Ourain rug, or any Turkish or Moroccan-influenced area rug, this pick achieves the look at a fraction of the cost. And, as anyone with an antique rug or textile knows, you live in constant fear of staining itâno red wine can come within its orbit. Spill a glass of merlot on this guy, and it wonât have even begun to soak in by the time youâve run into the other room and come back with a roll of paper towels. And, anyway, if it does, you can throw it in the washing machine.Ruggable x AD Selene Neutral Multicolor Tufted RugThis design feels both California â70s and 15th-century stained glass at the same time. Itâs the perfect rug for adding a splash of color against cold tile, or complimenting a warm wood foyer. For those that just canât get behind jute, this feels like a particularly good alternative, as it achieves the same bohemian, worn look.Ruggable x Iris Apfel Birds Of A FeatherTufted RugIf thereâs one thing Iris Apfel delivers on, itâs fun. Her entire collaboration with Ruggable uses big, playful shapes, florals, animals, and bright colors. This tufted rug is a design task for someone with an eye and who can start with a flamingo rug and build around it. We love to imagine it surrounded by splashy, gold design, ornate mirrors, a statement couchâall done with maximalist consideration.Ruggable x AD Nisa Ink Black Tufted RugThis is another Moroccan-inspired design that brings a warm and cozy depth to its design. One rug is a whole lot cheaper than a conversation pit, but angles at the same feelingâa warm place to relax, long evenings, deep chats. Weâd style it with some lightweight pieces, like rattan, a linen cover couch, and lots of plants.Ruggable Vesper Tufted RugAnother favorite from the Founderâs Collection, this trending tufted rug is a classic. It aims at the long-beloved Turkish design of deep, ornate reds that seem to always suit a space, whatever the needâliving room, dining room, even doormat.Ruggable Crosby Birch & Charcoal RugThis Scandinavian-inspired rug feels super versatileâit makes as good of a bathroom runner as it does an entryway detail. Weâd also love it for a large living room, with mid-century modern styling, or something Northern European with clean lines, bright light, and all neutrals.0 Reacties 0 aandelen 70 Views
