Ahead of Apple's "Surprise and shine" event on September 9, we talk through everything to expect on this week's episode of The MacRumors Show.00:00 Intro04:37 AirPods 5 predictions09:26 Apple Watch predictions18:35 iPhone 18 Pro expectations28:39 iPhone Ultra first look43:50 Apple Pencil and home product rumors49:12 Event coverage and closing remarksThe event begins at 10:00 a.m. Pacific Time at the Apple Park campus in Cupertino, California, and will be streamed on Apple's website, on YouTube, and through the Apple TV app. It is the first keynote since John Ternus succeeded Tim Cook as chief executive on September 1. Rumors suggest at least six new products will arrive at the event. The Apple Watch Series 12 is expected to add a new chip, improved fitness tracking, better battery life, continuous heart-rate collection, and redesigned Health and Fitness experiences. A ceramic case option may return in white or dark gray, but no major redesign or Touch ID is now expected.The Apple Watch Ultra 4 should receive the same new chip and health upgrades, again without a redesign. Apple may also expand its existing satellite connectivity features on the device with satellite Apple Maps and photo sharing in Messages.AirPods 5 is expected to arrive in two versions, with and without active noise cancellation. Both may use an H3 chip for improved sound and lower latency, but are not expected to add the AirPods Pro 3's heart-rate sensor.The iPhone 18 Pro should retain the iPhone 17 Pro's design while gaining an A20 Pro chip on TSMC's 2nm process, with RAM integrated on the same wafer. Other expected upgrades include a LTPO+ display, Samsung image sensor, simplified Camera Control without a capacitive layer, a narrower Dynamic Island, 12GB of RAM, 256GB base storage, and 5G satellite internet. It may use Apple's C2 modem outside the U.S., while U.S. models will likely retain Qualcomm hardware for mmWave connectivity.The iPhone 18 Pro Max should share the smaller models's upgrades while adding a 5,391mAh battery in China and 5,567mAh battery in the U.S.. It may be thicker, heavier, and around 243 grams, with a variable-aperture main camerathat could be exclusive to the larger device.The foldable iPhone, likely called the “iPhone Ultra," is expected to be the biggest announcement, using a wide passport-style design with 5.5-inch outer and 7.8-inch inner displays, an iPad-like 4:3 aspect ratio, and a nearly invisible screen crease. It may feature a titanium-and-aluminum chassis, liquid-metal hinge, vapor-chamber cooling, A20 Pro chip, dual 5,400mAh to 5,800mAh batteries, Touch ID power button instead of Face ID, rear wide and ultra wide cameras, dual selfie cameras in hole-punch cutouts, and the Camera Control button, with 256GB, 512GB, and 1TB storage options. It is also expected to be more repairable than rival foldables.
In this English lesson, I wanted to help you learn the English phrase "good catch." We say this phrase when someone else tells us about a mistake we've made. Let's say you put two big crates on the back of a truck, and you put straps on the one crate to hold it down, and you forgot about the second one, and someone said to you, "Hey, you forgot to put straps on that crate." You would say, "good catch."Sometimes when I give students a test I make a mistake, and a student might say, "Hey, question number four has a mistake in it." And I would respond and say, "Good catch." Basically, it's kind of like saying, "Thank you for finding the mistake." If one of you heard me make a mistake in a video and you mentioned it in a comment, I would reply by saying, "Good catch." Basically saying, "Hey, you noticed the mistake.That's awesome." The second phrase I wanted to teach you today is the phrase "a real catch." When you say someone is a real catch. It means that they are a good person to have as a boyfriend or girlfriend, and maybe eventually marry. So here's a good example.Let's say your cousin is dating someone, and he's a doctor, and he has lots of money, and he's kind and generous, and he's not selfish, and he treats your cousin really, really well. You would say, "Wow, he's a good catch." Basically, a good catch, a real catch, a catch.You can use any of those. He's a real catch. Basically, saying that. Wow, you found a really special person to be your boyfriend or girlfriend. But hey, oh, to review, good catch means hey, you saw a mistake and you told me about it and I thanking and I'm thanking you for it.A real catch or a catch is simply someone, just a really nice person. They don't have to be rich, they don't have to be a doctor, but just someone who you would want to spend the rest of your life with. Sorry, I'm a little distracted at all the traffic, and I also feel like my new haircut.And this sky always makes me look like I have no hair at all. I don't know, it's kind of weird lighting. Anyways, let's look at a comment from a previous video. This is from Prince. Please also do C1 - C2. I can't find enough good material on YouTube, cause most is basic.Thank you. And then my response, good point. Most of my lessons are based on phrases I've heard in real life the past week, so I'm sure some C1 - C2 slips in once in a while. So Prince, thank you for that comment. And yes, that is the reality that there are going to be some words that slip in because I don't actually, it's kind of loud over there.I hope you can't hear that. I don't actually look for A2, B1, and B2 phrases to teach you. I actually just listen and I think to myself, oh, that's an interesting phrase. I should explain it to all of my viewers. So yes, because of that, there will occasionally be C1 and C2 phrases that come in.Hey, do you want to see the town I'm in? This is the town of Fenwick. You might have seen that when I was doing the first part of the video. There was a nice sign. I thought I would show you this town because it is a typical small Canadian town.I don't think I've visited this town to make a video at all. But you can see there is a nice little family restaurant, and they even have a patio that you can sit on. There's parking along the road, which is kind of handy because I parked my car down there.I think up here we have a post office as well, so you have the Fenwick post office. Honestly, the post office is looking a little bit dated, which means it looks a little bit old. Across the road, you have a coffee shop.I think it's called, I'm not sure what it's called. I thought it was called the Bin, and then a little convenience store. And then, of course, because I'm in North America, we always have really fancy pickup trucks to look at. There's no shortage of those.Anyways, thanks for watching. You're all awesome. I will see you next week with another short English lesson and leave you with a nice view of the truck. Bye.

Andre Robertson on Texas, the Yankees, and the accident that changed everythingFormer Major League shortstop Andre Robertson joins Melvin E. Edwards to trace a career that moves from Orange, Texas to the University of Texas, the New York Yankees, and the 1981 World Series. He also reflects on the racial barriers he faced, the coaches and teammates who shaped him, and the car accident that reshaped his playing career and life.We discuss:How Andre fell in love with baseball as a kid in Orange, why Texas was the right choice over going pro right out of high school, and what it meant to become the first African American baseball scholarship player at UT. He also shares stories about Yogi Berra, Rickey Henderson, Reggie Jackson, Tommy John, and George Steinbrenner.Key topics* Andre recalls growing up in Orange, Texas, where he started organized baseball at age 8 and played with some of the first Black Little League players in his area.* He tells two clubhouse stories, including Yogi Berra's strange instruction to “pair up in threes” and Rickey Henderson's third-person humor.* His father coached him early on and helped shape his approach to competition, discipline, and team-first thinking.* Andre talks about seeing Willie Mays as a kid and realizing he wanted to play at the highest level.* He explains how a state track meet in Austin led to Texas coach Cliff Gustafson recruiting him after seeing his athleticism.* At Texas, he had to switch from shortstop to second base, where assistant coach Bill Bethea helped refine his footwork and turn him into a better pro prospect.* He reflects on the 1979 College World Series, Texas' dominant run, and the disappointment of being knocked out by Arkansas and a California team.* Andre describes the social reality of being the only Black player on the Texas team for three years and how he responded to racism by focusing on the game.* He talks about leaving after his junior year, later returning to finish his degree in 1992 through correspondence courses.* Andre explains the culture shock of going from Orange, Texas to New York City and how he mentally narrowed his focus to handle Yankee Stadium pressure.* He shares his major league debut in 1981, Reggie Jackson's advice to “do what you did to get here,” and the confidence boost from getting hits in his first game.* He reflects on the 1981 World Series, his limited role as a pinch runner, and the humility of being part of a championship-caliber roster.* Andre remembers Tommy John as a friendly teammate and as a pitcher whose elbow surgery and long career made an impact on the game.* He discusses George Steinbrenner's demanding standards and says the owner's expectations matched the Yankee tradition of winning.* Andre recounts the 1983 car accident that fractured his C2 vertebrae, his long recovery, and the blessing of being able to return to baseball at all.* After playing, he moved into substitute teaching briefly and then spent decades working at DuPont, now Dow.* He closes with a look at his family, including three successful children, and his plans for retirement, golf tournaments, and more time with his wife.* The episode ends with his playful Texas and Texas A&M rivalry story, including the card-signing event where Aggies were reluctant to take UT pictures.Notable quotes“My father always told me, you don't need to talk about yourself, but let other people tell your stories.”“Do what you did to get here.”“It wasn't lucky, I was blessed.”Media Well Done, LLC Get full access to Melvin E.

Riesci a leggere un libro in italiano? E soprattutto… fino a che livello riesci ad arrivare? In questo articolo lo scopri con un test di lettura completo, dal livello A1 al livello C2, costruito su frasi vere prese da sei capolavori della letteratura italiana: Pinocchio, Cuore, Il fu Mattia Pascal, I Malavoglia, La coscienza di Zeno e I promessi sposi. Alla fine saprai esattamente qual è il tuo livello di lettura, e conoscerai anche qualche segreto sui libri più famosi d'Italia. Il Grande Test dei Classici Italiani da Pinocchio ai Promessi Sposi Le regole sono semplicissime. Per ogni livello troverai un brano di uno dei sei classici, seguito da due domande: una di grammatica e una di vocabolario. Un livello è "superato" se rispondi correttamente ad almeno una domanda su due. Il tuo livello di lettura è l'ultimo livello che riesci a superare. Se fai due su due… complimenti, livello superato a pieni voti! Mi raccomando: niente dizionario e niente traduttore, altrimenti il test non vale. Prima di iniziare, puoi anche dare un'occhiata alla nostra guida sui libri italiani da leggere. Livello A1 — "Le Avventure di Pinocchio" di Carlo Collodi (1883) Cominciamo con il libro italiano più tradotto al mondo: Pinocchio! Piccola curiosità: "Collodi" non era il vero cognome dell'autore. Lui si chiamava Carlo Lorenzini, ma scelse come nome d'arte il nome del paese toscano della sua mamma: Collodi, appunto. Ecco l'inizio del libro, uno degli inizi più famosi di tutta la letteratura: «C'era una volta… — Un re! — diranno subito i miei piccoli lettori. No, ragazzi, avete sbagliato. C'era una volta un pezzo di legno.» Un consiglio prima delle domande: al livello A1 non serve capire ogni parola! Per rispondere ti bastano quelle che conosci. Ah, e "diranno" è il verbo DIRE al futuro semplice: un tempo che si studia al livello A2, quindi niente panico. Domande del Livello A1 Grammatica: nel testo c'è "avete sbagliato". Qual è l'infinito di questo verbo? Vocabolario: che cos'è il "legno"? A) un animale del bosco B) il materiale degli alberi: serve per fare tavoli e sedie C) un tipo di pane Soluzioni del Livello A1 L'infinito è SBAGLIARE. "Avete sbagliato" è un passato prossimo: verbo AVERE al presente + participio passato (sbagliato). E il legno è ovviamente la risposta B: il materiale degli alberi. Infatti Pinocchio è proprio un burattino fatto di legno. Livello A2 — "Cuore" di Edmondo De Amicis (1886) Saliamo di livello con Cuore, il diario di un bambino di Torino, Enrico, che racconta un anno di scuola. Questo libro ha fatto piangere intere generazioni di italiani: ancora oggi, quando una storia è molto commovente e sentimentale, diciamo che è "da libro Cuore"! «Oggi primo giorno di scuola. Passarono come un sogno quei tre mesi di vacanza in campagna! Mia madre mi condusse questa mattina alla Sezione Baretti a farmi inscrivere per la terza elementare: io pensavo alla campagna e andavo di mala voglia.» Prima delle domande, una nota importante: hai visto "passarono" e "condusse"? Sono al passato remoto, un tempo che troverai spessissimo nei libri. Per ora ti basta riconoscere che è un passato: "passarono" = "sono passati", "condusse" = "ha accompagnato". "Inscrivere" è semplicemente la forma antica di "iscrivere". Ultima cosa: "andare di mala voglia" significa andare malvolentieri, senza voglia. Tieni a mente questa espressione: tra poco tornerà utile! Domande del Livello A2 Grammatica: nel testo c'è "QUEI tre mesi". Perché si dice "quei" e non "quelli" o "quegli"? Vocabolario: che cos'è la "campagna"? A) il contrario della città: un posto con campi, alberi e animali B) un tipo di scuola C) una stagione dell'anno Soluzioni del Livello A2 Il dimostrativo QUELLO, davanti a un nome, si comporta esattamente come l'articolo determinativo. Ecco lo schema: ArticoloForma di QUELLOEsempioilquelquel libroloquelloquello studentel' (maschile)quell'quell'amicola / l' (femminile)quella / quell'quella casa / quell'amicaiqueiquei mesigliquegliquegli amicilequellequelle case Quindi: "mesi" vuole l'articolo "i" → QUEI mesi! La campagna, invece, è la risposta A. Attenzione però: in italiano esiste anche la "campagna elettorale" o "pubblicitaria" — come l'inglese "campaign" —, ma qui Enrico parla proprio di prati, alberi e aria pulita. Livello B1 — "Il Fu Mattia Pascal" di Luigi Pirandello (1904) Ora si fa interessante! Luigi Pirandello, premio Nobel per la letteratura nel 1934, ci racconta la storia di Mattia Pascal, un uomo che… viene creduto morto da tutti! "Il fu", infatti, è un'espressione burocratica che si usa per le persone defunte: "il fu Mattia Pascal" significa "il defunto Mattia Pascal". E lui, invece di correggere l'errore, ne approfitta per cominciare una nuova vita con una nuova identità. «Una delle poche cose, anzi forse la sola ch'io sapessi di certo era questa: che mi chiamavo Mattia Pascal. E me ne approfittavo.» Domande del Livello B1 Grammatica: "mi chiamavo Mattia Pascal": che tipo di verbo è "chiamarsi"? E perché qui è all'imperfetto e non al passato prossimo? Vocabolario: "approfittarsi di qualcosa" significa: A) dimenticare qualcosa B) trarre vantaggio da qualcosa C) avere paura di qualcosa Soluzioni del Livello B1 "Chiamarsi" è un verbo riflessivo.Qui è all'imperfetto, "mi chiamavo", perché non indica un'azione conclusa, ma uno stato che durava nel tempo. Per gli stati e le descrizioni nel passato si usa l'imperfetto; per le azioni concluse, il passato prossimo. Confronta: FraseTempoPerché"Da bambino abitavo a Roma"imperfettoStato / descrizione nel passato"Nel 2010 mi sono trasferito a Milano"passato prossimoAzione conclusa in un momento preciso "Approfittarsi", risposta B, significa trarre vantaggio e si costruisce con la preposizione DI: "approfittarsi DI qualcosa". È proprio per questo che nel testo trovi "me NE approfittavo": quel piccolo NE sostituisce "di questo"… segnatelo, perché al livello C1 il NE tornerà da protagonista! Ultimo bonus per i più curiosi: "ch'io sapessi" è un congiuntivo imperfetto, e "ch'io" è l'elisione di "che io". Livello B2 — "I Malavoglia" di Giovanni Verga (1881) Voliamo in Sicilia con Giovanni Verga e il suo capolavoro del verismo: la storia di una famiglia di pescatori di Aci Trezza. Curiosità deliziosa: il vero cognome della famiglia è Toscano, ma tutti li chiamano "Malavoglia" — che letteralmente significherebbe "poca voglia di lavorare" — anche se in realtà sono dei grandissimi lavoratori! In Sicilia questo soprannome di famiglia, spesso ironico, si chiama "'ngiuria". E "mala voglia" ti ricorda qualcosa? Esatto: proprio come Enrico di Cuore, che andava a scuola "di mala voglia". «Un tempo i Malavoglia erano stati numerosi come i sassi della strada vecchia di Trezza; ce n'erano persino ad Ognina, e ad Aci Castello, tutti buona e brava gente di mare, proprio all'opposto di quel che sembrava dal nomignolo, come dev'essere.» Domande del Livello B2 Grammatica: "proprio all'opposto di QUEL CHE sembrava dal nomignolo". Che cosa significa "quel che"? E con quali altre espressioni possiamo sostituirlo? Vocabolario: che cos'è un "nomignolo"? A) un soprannome B) un documento d'identità C) un piccolo insulto Soluzioni del Livello B2 "Quel che" significa "quello che", cioè "ciò che", "la cosa che". Si chiama pronome relativo doppio, perché unisce due elementi in una sola espressione: un dimostrativo (quello) + il relativo (che). Puoi consultare la guida completa sui pronomi relativi per approfondire. Nel testo: "all'opposto di quel che sembrava dal nomignolo" = "il contrario della cosa che il soprannome faceva pensare". Altri esempi: "Non capisco quello che dici." "Ciò che conta è la salute." E già che ci siamo, due bonus: "erano stati" è un trapassato prossimo, per un'azione anteriore a un altro momento del passato; e "ce n'erano" nasconde la combinazione CI + NE ("lì c'erano alcuni di loro"). Il "nomignolo", risposta A, è un soprannome, spesso affettuoso o scherzoso: viene da "nome" più il suffisso "-ignolo". Livello C1 — "La Coscienza di Zeno" di Italo Svevo (1923) Livello C1: entriamo nella mente di Zeno Cosini, l'uomo dell'"ultima sigaretta". Zeno vuole smettere di fumare e scrive dappertutto la data della sua "ultima sigaretta"… peccato che di "ultime sigarette" ne fumi centinaia. Praticamente il nostro "da lunedì mi metto a dieta". Curiosità incredibile: Italo Svevo è uno pseudonimo — il vero nome era Ettore Schmitz — e il suo insegnante privato d'inglese a Trieste era… James Joyce! Sì, proprio l'autore dell'Ulisse: i due diventarono amici e Joyce aiutò a far conoscere il romanzo in Europa. «Vedere la mia infanzia? Più di dieci lustri me ne separano e i miei occhi presbiti forse potrebbero arrivarci se la luce che ancora ne riverbera non fosse tagliata da ostacoli d'ogni genere, vere alte montagne: i miei anni e qualche mia ora.» Domande del Livello C1 Grammatica: nel brano ci sono due particelle NE: "me NE separano" e "la luce che ancora NE riverbera". Che cosa sostituiscono? Vocabolario: quanti anni sono "dieci lustri"? Soluzioni del Livello C1 Tutte e due le particelle NE sostituiscono la stessa cosa: la mia infanzia! "Più di dieci lustri me NE separano" = "mi separano DA essa" (separare DA qualcosa); "la luce che ancora NE riverbera" = "la luce che ancora riverbera DA essa". Ti ricordi il piccolo NE di Pirandello, "me ne approfittavo", che sostituiva "DI + qualcosa"? Ecco il salto di qualità: il NE può sostituire anche i complementi con DA. E non è finita: anche "arrivarCI" si riferisce all'infanzia ("arrivare A essa"). Tutta la frase ruota intorno a una parola che Svevo nomina una sola volta, all'inizio. Per approfondire, puoi consultare la guida sulle particelle CI e NE. Bonus per il ripasso: "potrebbero arrivarci SE la luce non FOS

Read along to learn the English phrases GO FIGURE! and TELL ME ABOUT IT!In this English lesson, I wanted to help you learn the English phrase "go figure." When you say to someone "go figure," it means there's a situation that is illogical and doesn't make any sense and is hard to understand. Here's a great example: in Canada, gas is a dollar seventy a liter, and the federal government removed the carbon tax a few months ago, and they're going to put it back on in September.Go figure. Basically, what I'm saying there is the government putting the tax back on doesn't make sense. Gas is already too expensive, so I say go figure to indicate that I find that situation illogical and hard to understand. The other phrase I wanted to teach you today is the phrase "tell me about it." When you say to someone "tell me about it," it means you agree with what they just said.If someone said the price of gas is way too expensive, I might say "tell me about it." Basically meaning tell me more about it, but it really just means I agree with you. If you said my lessons were awesome, I might say tell me about it. Sorry, that was a little bit cocky there. Anyways, to review, when you say go figure, it means you're expressing your opinion about a situation that doesn't make sense, that is illogical.I actually think it's short for go figure it out. Like you need to actually research and think about it to understand it. And tell me about it simply means tell me... sorry simply means I agree with you. Sorry... I in my mind I was finishing this phrase and thinking I forgot the comment from the previous video in my van, which is a kilometer away.It was a longer walk than I expected here, but it's in my pocket. So hey, let's look at a comment from a previous video. This comment is from Tacagero. C2 English, a bit complicated for me now, but thanks. And my response: You're right, Tacagero, I try to target B1 to B2, but I guess I overshot a bit.Here is the ChatGPT breakdown. So I put the script, the transcript into ChatGPT from the last video. I'd rate this video B2 overall, with a few C1 phrases and features. I definitely would not call it C2, but it's considerably considerably above A2.The interesting distinction is that your delivery and sentence structure are often B1 B2, but the target language pushes parts of the lesson into B2 C1 - from ChatGPT. And and then I'm writing again. I'd say a lesson like this helps a lot of you because I'm floating around the B1 B2 area with how I talk and explain, but I'm helping you learn a C1 phrase. Works for me! And I hope it works for you too.So yeah, I try to kind of have this balance where I'm talking using B1 language as much as I can, B2 language, which is actually common in everyday English.That's not like me trying to sound simpler. It's just how I talk. And then sometimes I will teach phrases that are C1 or C2 level maybe. But hopefully most of you on this channel at least don't mind it being a little more challenging.Hey, so where am I today? Well, I am by a body of water. Which you might think, I think there's a loon there. By the way, that's the bird that's on our coin, the loony. Which you might think is a river, but it's actually an old shipping canal.And what they've done is they've put this bike path or walking path along the edge. There's even a nice pavilion over there. I don't want to disturb the person sitting over there having a peaceful day by videotaping, but yeah, it's just nice.I guess this canal, which I think is part of the old Welland canal system, became too old and then they dug another one. So this is used a lot for recreation. People use this for boating and jet skiing and water skiing and all that kind of stuff.Anyways, thanks for watching this short English lesson. I hope you enjoyed it. I'll see you next week with another one. Bye.

There is a tension between modern trend in centralising C2 (to govern the best use of resources) versus the now largely historical reliance on 'mission command'. Solutions are confounding Western commanders: according to Eva Sula there are additional dilemmas that are arising from the evolution of C2 in combat conditions – not least of which is how to import, verify, and use the vast data sets that each sovereign state holds (and is not releasing). The gap between political - and military – proclamations about co-operation, collaboration, and federation and the reality of sharing data, system information, and national controls is making the very idea of shared situational awareness less than feasible. The lessons from Ukraine (and from Russia) in evolving C2 systems are clear but it is also apparent that C2 will have to work outside areas of connectivity. Very large areas. And none of that is dealing with the absence of human agency in decision-making that US, Israeli, and Russian C2 systems have built in to the baseline operating systems. The tensions being exposed in C2 are now multi-faceted and appear to be growing. Many are appreciated, some ignored. It is, according to Eva, beyond the human comfort zone.

The reticence of Western governments to use Land Forces on operations has been notable of late. Dr Jack Watling, from RUSI in London, talks through the reasons for this, the lessons from Ukraine (and whether these are different from lessons from other theatres), whether both the battlefield is transparent and if dispersion is helping, the strategies being employed by various belligerents, counter C2 warfare (with specific emphasis on the IDF experiences), logistics, the human requirement when technology becomes the driving force, and the reality of Ukrainian drone operations. What emerges from the discussion is that if you want assurance in reaching political goals when undertaking war, you must employ land forces – and you must have the scale to make them effective: doing it on the cheap or on a small scale (ie anything below Army Group) just won't cut it.

Intel Chat with Matt Bromiley and Chris Luft — recorded in person at Black Hat USA in Las Vegas, day two.No prep doc, no script: just what Matt and Chris were actually hearing on the floor.• Shai-Hulud is back. The self-replicating npm worm returned on August 4, trojanizing the keyv / cacheable family and spreading to 400+ packages within hours. Chris reads through Datadog Security Labs' analysis of the Shai-Hulud 2.0 wave: 796 packages and 1,092 versions, 20M+ weekly downloads, credential harvesting with TruffleHog, GitHub repositories used for both exfiltration and command and control, and a worm that reads its own code to propagate without a C2 server.• The LLM that downloaded the malicious package by itself. A researcher asked a frontier model about a compromised package, and the model decided the best way to help was to go fetch a copy — tripping the SOC's alert and bypassing the company's centralized package clearing house on the way.• Non-human identity as the new perimeter. Every agent you introduce is another identity: who created it, what can it reach, how long should it live?• "Computer says no." Matt's colleague hit a refusal from Opus 5, and the session automatically downgraded to 4.8 and completed the task. Which raises the real question of the episode: do security teams now need model pinning, the way we once needed certificate pinning? And if defenders pin to older models to keep working while adversaries use the newest ones, have we rebuilt the same gap all over again?• AI governance and change control — which models are approved for which tasks, and what happens when a vendor ships a new version or deprecates an old one.• Token spend as a CISO budget line item. Enterprises buying tokens at a scale their vendors can't match and pulling those vendors onto their plan, token burn as an insider-threat vector, and why $100,000 of tokens is not $100,000 of productivity.• Defender takeaways: pin your npm packages, get security off its island and talk to your developers, build approved paths before detections, least privilege and key rotation, and network-gated pushes as a deliberate chokepoint.Stories covered:• https://www.elastic.co/security-labs/shai-hulud-chaindrop-npm-supply-chain• https://research.jfrog.com/post/shai-hulud-is-back-august/• https://securitylabs.datadoghq.com/articles/shai-hulud-2.0-npm-worm/• https://securitylabs.datadoghq.com/articles/npm-worm-compromises-popular-npm-packages/• https://unit42.paloaltonetworks.com/npm-supply-chain-attack/Chapters:0:00 Live from Black Hat, in person for once0:48 How Black Hat has changed4:31 No prep — let's talk about what's actually happening here4:57 Shai-Hulud is back: supply chain compromise6:23 The LLM that downloaded the malicious package7:19 Inside Shai-Hulud 2.010:34 When attackers and defenders use the same tools11:39 Non-human identity is the new perimeter12:13 Opus 5 said no, so the session downgraded itself15:23 Do security teams need model pinning?18:20 Three companies, very nebulous rules18:35 AI governance: which model for which task21:19 Token spend hits the security budget22:58 Is token spend a productivity metric?25:46 Pin your packages26:25 Get security off the island29:17 Least privilege, key rotation, chokepoints32:55 Why it's called Shai-Hulud33:25 Wrapping up at Black HatThe Cybersecurity Defenders Podcast — a podcast about cybersecurity and the people that keep the internet safe.

The iPhone Air reaches one year on sale next month, and Apple is now closer to launching its successor than it is to the original's debut. On this week's episode of The MacRumors Show, we discuss what's next for the device.The first-generation model has had a difficult run. A KeyBanc Capital Markets survey found virtually no demand for the device within weeks of its September 2025 launch, supply chain analyst Ming-Chi Kuo reported that suppliers were asked to cut capacity by more than 80%between launch and early 2026, and Luxshare and Foxconn both wound down production, leaving the phone believed to be entirely out of manufacture. Apple discounted it heavily in March, and SellCell data put its ten-week depreciation at 44.3% on average, against 34.6% for the iPhone 17series. The Weibo leaker known as "Digital Chat Station" said in May that the device had barely surpassed 700,000 activations even after multiple rounds of price cuts.A single rear camera left a $999 phone looking less capable than the cheaper iPhone 17, which has two, and the absence of the iPhone 17 Pro's vapor chamber cooling means the Air runs warmer under load. It also lacks stereo speakers. Battery life falls short of a full day for many users, mitigated in part by the dedicated MagSafe battery accessory Apple sells alongside it. With the iPhone 17 Pro starting at $1,099, the Air occupies a $100 gap that gave buyers little reason to stop there.Almost every change rumored for the second-generation model targets one of those points. Bloomberg reported in June that Apple will add an Ultra Wide lens alongside the existing 48-megapixel Fusion camera, and that the dual-lens design has reached advanced testing with the same exterior as the current model save for the extra lens. Almost everything other than the battery sits inside the iPhone Air's camera plateau, and Apple has reportedly asked suppliers for an ultra-thin Face ID module to free up space. The company also plans to adopt Samsung's CoE display technology, which is thinner and brighter than the current panel and debuts first on the foldable iPhone. Digital Chat Station expects a 3,500mAh battery, up from 3,149mAh, and The Information reported that Apple wants the device to be lighter and to gain vapor chamber cooling despite the added hardware.The device will also likely feature the A20 Pro chip, binned in some form like its predecessor, along with Apple's second-generation N2 wireless networking chip, the C2 modem, and 12GB of RAM, unchanged from the current model. Externally, little is expected to change beyond the additional rear camera, but Pu expects a slightly smaller Dynamic Island, in line with the wider iPhone 18lineup. A lavender color option could replace Sky Blue.Pricing is the biggest open question. The Information reported that Apple is considering a lower price for the second model, but the surrounding lineup is moving too. Pu expects the iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max to cost $250 to $300 morethan the current Pro models owing to 2nm silicon and memory costs, and the foldable iPhone is rumored to start somewhere between roughly $2,000 and $2,500. A widened gap between the Air and the Pro tier could change the calculation that undermined the original, particularly once the camera disparity with the standard iPhone disappears.The leaker "Fixed Focus Digital" claimed in April that Apple will push through at least two generations of the device no matter how poorly it sells, a position consistent with Bloomberg's Mark Gurman, who expects the Air 2 in spring 2027 alongside the standard iPhone 18 and iPhone 18e. Nikkei Asia reported in January that no second-generation Air was expected before 2027 at the earliest.Apple's confidence in the fall lineup appears to be growing in the meantime. The company reportedly told suppliers to prepare roughly 10 million foldable iPhones this year, up from an earlier forecast of seven to eight million, and has booked parts for around 80 million smartphones in the second half of 2026. Samsung, meanwhile, says the Galaxy Z Fold 8, Z Fold 8 Ultra, and Z Flip 8 drew 1.44 million pre-orders in South Korea across seven days, a company record, with the redesigned Z Fold 8 accounting for close to half of them.The iPhone 18 Pro, iPhone 18 Pro Max, and foldable iPhone are expected in September, and Apple has already begun preparing for the event, opening a lottery for U.S. retail employees to staff it.

The US National Guard is closely tied to the C2 transformation programmes of the US Army; as their strategic and operational reserve there is no alternative. Yet the other missions of the National Guard - whether responses to pandemics, civil unrest, or natural disasters - have different priorities to meeting and destroying the enemy. Lt Gen (rtd) Jon Jensen, 22ndDirector of the National Guard, talks about those tensions, the ethos of mission and purpose, the funding for major change programmes, and how the US National Guard will adapt to the C2 challenges of the future. General Jensen's focus on people and process rather than technology and systems is refreshing and eye opening. The US National Guard will be challenged by the frictions in establishing a single C2 system that covers both the US Army National Guard (as part of the US Army) and the US Air National Guard (working under the USAF) but the legacy of Jon Jensen as Director should minimise tension and maximise effectiveness. Not a bad way to end 41 years of service. Lt Gen Jon Jensen has recently retired after more than four decades of service, culminating in 28 months as the 22ndDirector of the Army National Guard, a job that guided the formation, development, and implementation of all programs and policies affecting nearly 335,0000 soldiers in 50 states, 3 territories, and the District of Columbia. Jon joined the Iowa state guard in 1982 as a combat medic and went on to become an NCO before becoming an officer. This was, of course, the Cold War and the last period of Great Power competition. Since then, Jon experienced the Guard through Counter Terror missions and Counter Insurgency during the Global War of Terror, as well as the domestic demands of pandemic, civil unrest, and natural disasters. Before his role as Director, Jon served as the 31st Adjutant General of Minnesota and earlier, as Commanding General of the Minnesota National Guard's 34th Infantry Division. He also was dual-hatted as Deputy Commander and Army Reserve Component Integration Adviser, U.S. Army Africa and Southern European Task Force, U.S. Africa Command. He has commanded at the company, battalion, brigade and division levels. His operational assignments include operations DESERT SPRING in Kuwait, JOINT FORGE in Bosnia Herzegovina in SFOR14, and IRAQI FREEDOM, twice.

Simple 6 signup link https://simple6.co/r/CFUR98 Bing malvertising campaign tricks users into downloading a fake Claude desktop app that quietly installs the SectopRAT info-stealing trojan. - https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/fake-claude-app-promoted-by-bing-ads-pushes-sectoprat-malware/ The malicious "FakeAgent" campaign hit at least 29 organizations on July 21–22; the poisoned Claude Artifact (hosted on Anthropic's own domain) was downloaded 7,100 times before removal, with the fake installer (ClaudeDesktop.exe) sideloading a malicious DLL to drop SectopRAT — a HVNC-capable info-stealer active since 2019 that targets browser logins, crypto wallets, Discord/Telegram/Steam credentials, and uses Ethereum smart-contract transactions (EtherHiding) to fetch its C2 address; researchers even used Claude Opus 4.8 themselves to help reverse-engineer the payload. Iran allegedly exploited decades-old cell network flaws to physically locate and target US troops during the Iran War. - https://techcrunch.com/2026/07/14/iran-abused-mobile-networks-vulnerabilities-to-locate-u-s-military-in-the-middle-east-report-says/ Per a Financial Times report citing the Mobile Surveillance Monitor and government officials, Iran exploited SS7 — the legacy signaling protocol still underpinning 2G/3G global roaming — to track US personnel at bases and hotels in Iraq, Bahrain, and elsewhere in the Middle East, contributing to strikes that wounded upwards of 150 US troops; Iran reportedly also abused ad-tech location data as a secondary tracking vector. A multi-university study found dozens of apps marketed directly to US troops are quietly shipping Chinese and Russian code. - https://www.wired.com/story/apps-marketed-to-us-troops-are-shipping-chinese-and-russian-code/ Researchers from Purdue, West Point, and Florida International University analyzed 220+ apps aimed at service members (fitness trackers, base-living-condition raters, National Guard-affiliated apps) and found 64% contain third-party SDKs from foreign countries, with roughly 1-in-8 to 1-in-14 apps (reporting varies) carrying code tied directly to China or Russia — including at least 12 apps embedding Huawei's mobile framework and others using the Russian ad service Yandex; no active exfiltration was observed, but researchers warn the dormant SDK code is an exploitable backchannel. A 21-year-old allegedly stole $220K in crypto by hiding malware in Steam games — and got caught because he spent it on Uber Eats. - https://www.pcmag.com/news/fbi-traces-malware-infected-steam-games-to-21-year-old-in-florida The FBI arrested Florida's Zyaire Dontaevious Zamarion Wilkins for allegedly running eight malware-laced Steam games (including BlockBlasters and PirateFi) between May 2024–Feb 2026, infecting ~8,000 devices and draining ~80 crypto wallets for at least $220,000 — including $35,000 stolen from a streamer's cancer-treatment fundraiser; investigators cracked the case by tracing stolen Bitcoin to 150+ Bitrefill gift cards mostly spent on Uber Eats orders tied to his home and university email address. Thrillist crowned Doritos Nacho Cheese the single greatest snack of all time, edging out Oreos and Pringles for the top spot. - https://www.thrillist.com/eat/nation/best-snack-foods-chips-candy-ranking The top five, in order: Doritos (Nacho Cheese, specifically) at #1, Oreos (Double Stuf gets the nod) at #2, Pringles at #3, Reese's Peanut Butter Cups at #4, and Goldfish rounding out the top five; other notable placements include Cheez-Its at #8, M&Ms at #7, Cheetos (the curls, not puffs) at #6, and Lay's Original topping the chip-specific competition at #12.

While Java programs are deployed as bytecode, performance-relevant code will be compiled, at run time, to machine code whose performance rivals that of any other platform. In the HotSpot JVM, this is the job of the just-in-time compilers C1 and C2 and between speculation and traps, inlining and constant folding, escape analysis and scalar replacement (and many more), they apply a number of heuristics, analyses, and transformations to achieve that. This requires expertise, careful research, thorough testing, and regular reevaluations of old assumptions. In this "Ask the Architects" episode of the Inside Java Podcast, recorded during JavaOne 2026, Nicolai Parlog talks to Roberto Lozano, compiler engineer at the Java Platform Group at Oracle. In our show "Ask the Architects", we talk to experts in OpenJDK about their work on the Java language, API, and runtime.

Hospital ransomware fallout, blockchain botnet C2, and AI agent loose in Thailand's Finance Ministry. South Carolina's AnMed reopened some physician offices four days into a ransomware attack with phones, internet, and systems still offline, forcing manual processes and in-person medication refills, as broader healthcare ransomware totals hit 410 attacks worldwide in the first half of the year and a HIPAA Security Rule update was delayed to 2027 while class-action efforts began. Researchers report the Dysphoria IoT botnet moved command-and-control to blockchain name services and victim relays, making takedowns harder, with estimates above 200,000 bots and DDoS offerings up to 4 Tbps.

Con questo quiz imparerai a riconoscere gli errori nelle frasi italiane reali, quelli che anche gli studenti più avanzati fanno ogni giorno senza accorgersene. Riconoscere un errore è il primo passo per non rifarlo mai più. Quanti Errori Riesci a Trovare? Metti alla Prova il Tuo Italiano Le Regole del Quiz Prima di iniziare, tieni a mente queste semplici indicazioni. Leggi ogni frase e cerca l'errore da solo prima di leggere la spiegazione. Non tutte le frasi contengono necessariamente un errore — leggi con attenzione prima di rispondere. Sii onesto con te stesso: il risultato sarà tanto più utile quanto più è sincero. Per ogni errore trovato correttamente guadagni un punto. Alla fine scoprirai cosa significa il tuo punteggio. Le 6 Frasi del Quiz Frase 1 — Livello A1 (Principiante) Trova l'errore nella seguente frase: «Io hai un cane molto simpatico.» [...] Risposta: l'Errore È il Verbo "Hai" «Hai» è la seconda persona singolare del verbo avere — si usa con «tu». Ma la frase inizia con «io», quindi il verbo deve essere alla prima persona singolare: «ho». Vale la pena notare che in italiano il pronome soggetto si omette spesso, perché la desinenza del verbo è già sufficiente a capire di chi si parla. Quindi «ho un cane molto simpatico» è la forma più naturale. Usare «io» non è sbagliato — è semplicemente ridondante. Frase corretta: «Io ho un cane molto simpatico.» — oppure, più naturalmente: «Ho un cane molto simpatico.» Frase 2 — Livello A2 (Elementare) Trova l'errore nella seguente frase: «Ieri ho andato al supermercato con mia madre.» [...] Risposta: l'Errore È l'Ausiliare "Ho" «Andare» è un verbo di movimento intransitivo e in italiano richiede l'ausiliare «essere», non «avere». Quindi non si dice «ho andato» ma «sono andato» — o «sono andata» se chi parla è una donna. Capire quali verbi vogliono «essere» e quali «avere» al passato prossimo è una delle difficoltà più grandi per chi impara l'italiano. Una buona regola generale — non infallibile, ma utile — è che i verbi di movimento e di stato in luogo tendono a volere «essere». Frase corretta: «Ieri sono andato al supermercato con mia madre.» Frase 3 — Livello B1 (Intermedio) Trova l'errore nella seguente frase: «Dove hai messo le chiavi? Le ho cercate dappertutto ma non le ho trovate nessuna.» [...] Risposta: l'Errore È "Non le ho trovate nessuna" «Nessuna» è già di per sé un pronome negativo che esprime la negazione totale — da solo basta a dire che non è stata trovata neanche una chiave. Aggiungere il pronome clitico «le» prima è ridondante e agrammaticale: i due elementi si escludono a vicenda. La forma corretta usa il pronome «ne», che sostituisce «le chiavi» con valore partitivo. Questo è un errore classico, soprattutto per chi parla spagnolo o francese, dove strutture simili esistono. Frase corretta: «Dove hai messo le chiavi? Le ho cercate dappertutto ma non ne ho trovata nessuna.» Frase 4 — Livello B2 (Intermedio Superiore) Trova l'errore nella seguente frase: «I ragazzi si sono divertiti molto alla festa, anche se all'inizio sembravano annoianti.» [...] Risposta: l'Errore È "Annoianti" — Parola che Non Esiste «Annoianti» non esiste in italiano. Molti studenti la creano per analogia con «divertenti», ma il participio/aggettivo corretto è «annoiati» — dal verbo annoiarsi. Vale la pena tenere a mente la differenza: annoiati = le persone provano noia (stato d'animo) noiosi = le persone o le cose causano noia negli altri «I ragazzi erano noiosi» significherebbe che erano loro a fare annoiare gli altri — che probabilmente non è quello che si vuole dire. Frase corretta: «I ragazzi si sono divertiti molto alla festa, anche se all'inizio sembravano annoiati.» Frase 5 — Livello C1 (Avanzato) Trova l'errore nella seguente frase: «È necessario che tutti i dipendenti abbiano firmato il documento entro domani.» [...] Risposta: l'Errore È il Congiuntivo Passato "Abbiano Firmato" Il congiuntivo passato si usa per indicare un'azione già completata nel passato rispetto alla frase principale. Ma qui si parla di qualcosa che deve ancora succedere — firmare il documento entro domani è un'azione futura. Serve quindi il congiuntivo presente: «firmino». La distinzione tra congiuntivo presente e congiuntivo passato è una di quelle cose che a livello C1 fa davvero la differenza — non solo nella grammatica, ma nel significato. «Abbiano firmato» farebbe pensare che la firma dovesse già essere avvenuta, il che cambierebbe completamente il senso della frase. Frase corretta: «È necessario che tutti i dipendenti firmino il documento entro domani.» Frase 6 — Livello C2 (Quasi Madrelingua) Trova l'errore nella seguente frase: «Qualora avete bisogno di ulteriori informazioni, non esitate a contattarci.» [...] Risposta: l'Errore È l'Indicativo "Avete" dopo "Qualora" «Avete» è l'indicativo presente, ma «qualora» è una congiunzione ipotetica che in italiano vuole sempre il congiuntivo. È una di quelle congiunzioni — come «affinché», «sebbene», «benché» — che reggono obbligatoriamente il congiuntivo, senza eccezioni. «Qualora» si usa soprattutto nel registro formale e scritto — nelle email di lavoro, nei documenti ufficiali, nei contratti. Conoscere questa struttura permette di scrivere in italiano in modo davvero elegante e professionale. Frase corretta: «Qualora abbiate bisogno di ulteriori informazioni, non esitate a contattarci.» I Risultati del Quiz Conta i tuoi punti e scopri il tuo livello. PunteggioLivelloDescrizione0–2 puntiA1/A2 — PrincipianteStai costruendo le basi. Concentrati sulla coniugazione dei verbi e sulla scelta degli ausiliari — sono i fondamenti su cui si costruisce tutto il resto.3–4 puntiB1/B2 — IntermedioBuona padronanza delle strutture di base. Alcune regole più sottili ti sfuggono ancora, ma sei sulla strada giusta.5–6 puntiC1/C2 — AvanzatoIl tuo italiano è solido. Cogli anche gli errori più sottili — quelli che fanno la differenza tra un buon italiano e un italiano davvero preciso. Tieni presente che questo è un test orientativo, utile per avere un'idea generale del tuo livello di accuratezza grammaticale. Domande Frequenti Perché "Andare" Vuole "Essere" e Non "Avere" al Passato? In italiano i verbi intransitivi di movimento e di stato in luogo tendono a formare il passato prossimo con l'ausiliare «essere». «Andare» rientra in questa categoria. Una regola pratica è ricordare che con «essere» il participio concorda con il soggetto (sono andato/andata/andati/andate), mentre con «avere» rimane invariato. Qual È la Differenza tra "Annoiato" e "Noioso"? «Annoiato» descrive chi prova noia — è uno stato d'animo del soggetto. «Noioso» descrive invece chi o cosa causa noia negli altri. Dire «i ragazzi erano annoiati» significa che si annoiavano; dire «i ragazzi erano noiosi» significa che annoiavano gli altri. La confusione tra i due è molto comune tra gli studenti stranieri. Quando Si Usa il Congiuntivo Presente e Quando il Congiuntivo Passato? Il congiuntivo presente si usa quando l'azione della frase subordinata è contemporanea o successiva rispetto alla frase principale: «È necessario che firmino» (devono ancora farlo). Il congiuntivo passato si usa quando l'azione subordinata è già avvenuta prima del momento della frase principale: «È possibile che abbiano già firmato» (l'hanno già fatto). La scelta tra i due cambia completamente il significato della frase. Quali Congiunzioni Richiedono Sempre il Congiuntivo in Italiano? Le principali congiunzioni che richiedono obbligatoriamente il congiuntivo sono: «affinché», «sebbene», «benché», «nonostante», «quantunque», «qualora», «purché», «a meno che», «prima che». Memorizzarle come gruppo è il modo più efficace per non sbagliare. Perché "Non Lo So Se" È Sbagliato in Italiano? In italiano il pronome «lo» non può anticipare una frase interrogativa indiretta introdotta da «se». Con le interrogative indirette — frasi che esprimono una domanda o un dubbio in forma indiretta — il pronome va semplicemente omesso. La forma corretta è «non so se», senza alcun pronome prima. Questo errore è molto comune tra chi parla spagnolo («no lo sé si») o francese. Pronto a sfidare il tuo italiano su un altro fronte?

Every dad has been there. Your child says something disrespectful. Your spouse reacts in a way you didn't expect. Stress builds at work, and before you know it, you're responding out of emotion instead of wisdom.

In this exclusive interview Laura is joined by Jazmine's parents following the Court of Appeal's decision to overturn the unduly lenient sentences handed to two teenage boys convicted of 10 counts of rape of two girls in Hampshire. After widespread public outrage and a legal challenge by the Attorney General, the Court of Appeal ruled that the original sentences failed to reflect the seriousness of the offences. Two boys, who had initially avoided custody, were re-sentenced to four years' detention. Whilst the decision marked an important step towards accountability, Jazmine's parents explain in detail why it is still not enough and what needs to change– including a personal plea to Lady Chief Justice Baroness Carr. Laura shares her analysis of the 52-page Judgement from the Court of Appeal and Judge Rowland's Sentencing Remarks in the context of the Sentencing Guidelines and increasing male violence to girls and women. In this episode, Laura, and Jazmine's parents discuss: The severe psychological impact and harm to Jazmine; How evidence of the victim's trauma was overlooked by Judge Rowland in favour of his impression; How expert opinion about a sharp implement being used to cut victim C2's clothing was overlooked in favour of Judge Rowland's impression; Judge Rowland's treatment of the boys vs the girls; The over focus on the boys so-called vulnerabilities whilst ignoring the girls; The sentencing guidelines – what needs to change; Lack of training and accountability for Judges and why this must change; The foundation established by Jazmine and her family to support victims and create lasting change. The courage shown by Jazmine and her family in speaking publicly helps shine a light on the realities of sexual violence and the urgent need for judicial accountability and reform. More from Jazmine's Family: Stronger Than Silence Foundation Support the Foundation If you have not already listened, Laura previously analysed the broader Hampshire serial gang rape case, the offenders' histories, the warning signs, escalating behaviours, and the systemic failures that allowed dangerous patterns to go unchecked.

Air Date: 7/4/2026 Today we examine what America has celebrated for 250 years and what it keeps refusing to look at. The Declaration promised government by the consent of the governed, but the Constitution protected slavery, concentrated power in elites, and left the definition of "the people" deliberately vague. Every generation inherits that same unresolved contradiction and has to address it for themselves. Full Show Notes Transcript Be part of the show!
