In iOS 26, SwiftUI finally introduced one of its most highly anticipated components: WebView, a native solution for displaying web content. Before this update, SwiftUI developers had to rely on the UIKit framework, using UIViewRepresentable to wrap WKWebView or SFSafariViewController in order to embed a web view. With the arrival of WebView, Apple now provides a fully native SwiftUI approach to integrating web browsing capabilities into apps. In this tutorial, I’ll give you a quick overview of the new WebView and show you how to use it in your own app development.The Basic Usage of WebViewTo load a web page using the new WebView, you simply import the WebKit framework…

– Advertisement – This deployment will be the country’s first NB-IoT solution on a narrow band with a 2G and 4G fallback option, ensuring continuous transfer of vital data and real-time connectivity. On Monday, Bharti Airtel (Airtel) announced a partnership with Secure Metres for the deployment of narrow band (NB-IoT) services that will use smart metres to power 1.3 million homes in Bihar. According to a statement from the firm, this deployment will be the country’s first NB-IoT solution on a narrow band with a fall-back option that will work on 2G and 4G, ensuring real-time connectivity and uninterrupted transfer…

With new AI models, health tracking companies have realized that they can now provide insights using both structured and unstructured data. The new goal is to create interfaces and modalities that make it easier for users to create a habit of logging their meals or workouts, along with having an ever-present AI assistant that can guide people in areas like nutrition and exercise. Khosla-backed health startup Healthify on Tuesday launched a new version of its health assistant Ria, which you can converse with live, via voice, and by using the camera for getting input about your food. The startup is…

With quercetin as a natural reducer and stabilizer, ZnS quantum dots break down stubborn dyes and disrupt bacterial biofilms, all while remaining safe for healthy cells. Study: Green synthesis of quercetin-mediated ZnS quantum dots and their photocatalytic, antimicrobial, and cytotoxic performances. Image Credit: Sinhyu Photographer/Shutterstock.com In a new Scientific Reports study, researchers demonstrate an environmentally friendly method for producing zinc sulfide (ZnS) quantum dots using quercetin, a plant-derived flavonoid that doubles as a reducing and stabilizing agent. Quantum dots (QDs) exhibit unique optical and electronic behaviors when their dimensions fall below the exciton Bohr radius, approximately 10 nm for ZnS. These nanoscale…

Picture this. You’ve joined a squad at your company that’s designing new product features with an emphasis on automation or AI. Or your company has just implemented a personalization engine. Either way, you’re designing with data. Now what? When it comes to designing for personalization, there are many cautionary tales, no overnight successes, and few guides for the perplexed.  Article Continues Below Between the fantasy of getting it right and the fear of it going wrong—like when we encounter “persofails” in the vein of a company repeatedly imploring everyday consumers to buy additional toilet seats—the personalization gap is real. It’s…

When the head of Nokia Bell Labs core research talks about “lessons learned” from 5G, he’s doing something rare in telecom: admitting a flagship technology didn’t quite work out as planned.That candor matters now, too, because Bell Labs core research president Peter Vetter says 6G’s success depends on getting infrastructure right the first time—something 5G didn’t fully do.By 2030, he says, 5G will have exhausted its capacity. Not because some 5G killer app will appear tomorrow, suddenly making everyone’s phones demand 10 or 100 times as much data capacity as they require today. Rather, by the turn of the decade,…

In a departure that took almost as long as Siri needs to find some obscure music requests, Apple has announced a new vice president of AI: Amar Subramanya, who will replace former AI chief John Giannandrea. Subramanya will report directly to Craig Federighi, Apple’s senior vice president for software engineering. Giannandrea will “transition to an advisory role” pending planned retirement next year. Certain roles previously occupied by Giannandrea will be shifted to Apple COO Sabih Khan and Senior Vice President for Services Eddy Cue. Subramanya will lead Apple Intelligence and Siri’s next chapters. “We are thankful for the role John played in…

Podcasts Trent Edwards used to climb telephone poles. Now he’s the CEO of TAK Broadband, bringing with him an appreciation for network builders and the often-dangerous work they perform. By Brad Randall, Broadband Communities Trent Edwards, the CEO of an end-to-end fiber network construction firm called TAK Broadband, is worried about the future of industry’s workforce. “We don’t do a good job of making sure that the younger generation understands the opportunity within construction,” he said. According to Edwards, many hold assumptions that construction work is unpleasant because it requires working outside in many different conditions. “And the people that do…

The following article originally appeared on Medium and is being republished here with the author’s permission.Don’t get me wrong, I’m up all night using these tools.But I also sense we’re heading for an expensive hangover. The other day, a colleague told me about a new proposal to route a million documents a day through a system that identifies and removes Social Security numbers.I joked that this was going to be a “million-dollar regular expression.”Run the math on the “naïve” implementation with full GPT-5 and it’s eye-watering: A million messages a day at ~50K characters each works out to around 12.5…

This post shows how Amazon EMR 7.12 can make your Apache Spark and Iceberg workloads up to 4.5x faster performance. The Amazon EMR runtime for Apache Spark provides a high-performance runtime environment with full API compatibility with open source Apache Spark and Apache Iceberg. Amazon EMR on EC2, Amazon EMR Serverless, Amazon EMR on Amazon EKS, Amazon EMR on AWS Outposts and AWS Glue use the optimized runtimes. Our benchmarks show Amazon EMR 7.12 runs TPC-DS 3 TB workloads 4.5x faster than open source Spark 3.5.6 with Iceberg 1.10.0. Performance improvements include optimizations for metadata caching, parallel I/O, adaptive query…
