In this tutorial I’ll show you how to launch a completely sandboxed macOS application on system startup written in Swift. Update: you should simply add the LaunchAtLogin library to your project. It’ll take care of everything and it has some other cool utility features.Project setupLet’s start this tutorial by creating a new Xcode project with a macOS app template. Name it for example MainApplication, use storyboards and of course select Swift as the default language, we don’t need tests for this project at all.Now that we have the main application target, there is this nice little function available called SMLoginItemSetEnabled.…

When you walk into a world-class venue like SoFi Stadium or TD Garden, the first thing that hits you isn’t just the scale of the architecture-it’s the pulse of the digital experience. Every screen, from the massive infinity board to the smallest concourse display, is a window into a deeper, more personalized journey for the fan. At Cisco, we believe that a stadium is more than just a place to watch a game; it is a living, breathing digital ecosystem. That is why I am so excited to talk about VisionEDGE, our premier IPTV and Digital Signage solution co-developed with…

It happens in every emerging industry: founders and investors push toward a common goal, until the money starts to roll in and that shared vision begins to diverge. Cracks are emerging in the fusion power world, which I saw firsthand at The Economist’s Fusion Fest in London last week. It didn’t dampen the overall buoyant mood, lifted by fusion startups’ fundraising haul of $1.6 billion in the last 12 months. But people had differing opinions on two key questions: When should fusion startups go public? And are side businesses a distraction? Going public was at the top of everyone’s minds.…

The physicochemical properties at the metal/electrolyte interface, such as ion transport, interfacial energy, and mechanical factors determine the shape and structure of electrodeposited metals. This is particularly true for the electrochemical deposition of metallic lithium (Li), which is considered the ultimate anode for next-generation batteries with high energy densities due to its highest specific capacity (3860 mAh g⁻¹) and the lowest electrode potential among all possible alternative anodes [1], [2]. The electroplating of Li is especially challenging because of the immediate formation of a resistive interfacial passivation layer, known as the SEI [3], [4]. This layer forms due to the parasitic reduction…

I tried the battery version, which does require you recharge it every couple of weeks, but the wired-in version is the top recommendation on our guide to the Best Video Doorbells.A Better BirdhouseI had a new-to-me problem this spring: bird invasion. A little bird made a nest in my front-door wreath without us noticing. One evening, my sister opened the door, and the bird flew out of the nest and straight into our house. After a 30-minute battle to get it outside again (and keep my cat from eating it), it wasn’t until we saw the bird fly off the…

Self-hosted UCaaS gives service providers greater control, but it often comes with unnecessary complexity.

Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) are great – they’re able to detect features in an image no matter where. Well, not exactly. They’re not indifferent to just any kind of movement. Shifting up or down, or left or right, is fine; rotating around an axis is not. That’s because of how convolution works: traverse by row, then traverse by column (or the other way round). If we want “more” (e.g., successful detection of an upside-down object), we need to extend convolution to an operation that is rotation-equivariant. An operation that is equivariant to some type of action will not only register…

In programmatic advertising, better targeting is rarely about more data, it’s about the right signals, delivered in a way teams can actually use. But as third-party cookies fade and privacy expectations rise, many marketers are left with fragmented identifiers, inconsistent audience definitions, and a growing gap between what happens online and what happens in the real world. That’s exactly where Precisely Audiences powered by PlaceIQ location data comes in. Location-based advertising audiences help marketers target consumers based on real-world visitation behavior — not just online browsing activity. Built from real-world visit behavior and designed for privacy-forward activation, Precisely Audiences helps…

Today, we’re announcing Claude Opus 4.7 in Amazon Bedrock, Anthropic’s most intelligent Opus model for advancing performance across coding, long-running agents, and professional work. Claude Opus 4.7 is powered by Amazon Bedrock’s next generation inference engine, delivering enterprise-grade infrastructure for production workloads. Bedrock’s new inference engine has brand-new scheduling and scaling logic which dynamically allocates capacity to requests, improving availability particularly for steady-state workloads while making room for rapidly scaling services. It provides zero operator access—meaning customer prompts and responses are never visible to Anthropic or AWS operators—keeping sensitive data private. According to Anthropic, Claude Opus 4.7 model provides improvements…
