Calls themselves a security researcher yet quickly posts code that is not theirs on a github. Not cool.

Like most of Issey Miyake's products and garments, it looks and presumably feels nice. I know, it is unreasonably expensive yet I like it as product design.
Miyake himself has passed on, it is worth googling his truly incredible artful fashion designs. This is made by his team, and it keeps that vibe.

Colleague of mine bought a young 2nd hand VW EV (ID 5 if I remember well), in Luxembourg from a VW dealer and drove it to his home in Belgium. Very nice car, and it was priced very attractively. Looks big enough inside for you and your family. Similarly spacious as my Y.

I thought the same about brand specific UIs before I got my Y. But must be said that I don't really miss CarPlay in it. The Y has a nice UI that is more sophisticated than the CarPlay UI. Yes I do play a little per month for connectivity, but not much really, and it allows me to see live traffic conditions in the gps or play my music and podcasts even if I don't have my phone with me.

Surprisingly, it will not be a Pininfarina design, rather Ferrari asked...
Marc Newson and Jony Ive's Lovefrom!
These are celebrated designers, however they have to my knowledge never designed a car.
It looks like Ferrari really wanted to have a blue sky approach for this important new car.
About the sound: check a YouTube test of the Lotus Evija EV hypercar. It sounds like a jetfighter engine, without fake sound generation. I can imagine Ferrari being able to design a cool sound for their car.

I had expected Craig Federighi, being in most keynotes since a long time. But Ternus seems super capable as well.
Submission + - SWIFT launches a global financial blockchain (reuters.com)
Camembert writes: In a move that is sure to make Ripple nervous, traditional financial network Swift announced yesterday that it is partnering with Consensys and more than 30 global banks to build a blockchain based network that will run in parallel with its traditional network. Interestingly, unlike XRP, there is no native coin, rather it aims for interoperability (probably using Chainlink with whom the company did case studies for a few years already). There is also a strong focus on regulatory compliance. There are several news articles and opinion pieces on this event, I linked the Reuters article.

Most people will now prefer to watch the original Star Wars trilogy in the updated edition with improved SFX etc. Let's see if using AI on these HK classics will yield a similar benefit before denouncing it.
