How a fast-growing scam is tricking WhatsApp users into revealing their most sensitive financial and other data 05 Nov 2025  •  , 4 min. read Scams and other threats that are doing the rounds on messaging apps like WhatsApp are a stark reminder of how easily even trusted platforms can be weaponized against us. One deceptive tactic that has gained traction recently involves tricking people into sharing their phone screens during a WhatsApp video call. The screen-sharing feature, available in WhatsApp since 2023, is increasingly being turned against the app’s users to steal their data, identities and money. Cases of…

Support CleanTechnica’s work through a Substack subscription or on Stripe. October’s auto market saw plugin EVs at 31.1% share in France, up from 23.5% year on year. BEVs grew YoY volume by 63% and gained an additional 9% share of the market. Overall auto volume was 139,514 units, up some 3% YoY. The Renault 5 was France’s best-selling BEV in October. October saw combined EVs at 31.1% share in France, with full battery electrics (BEVs) at 24.4% and plugin hybrids (PHEVs) at 6.7%. These compare with YoY figures of 23.5% combined, 15.4% BEV and 8.0% PHEV. October’s notable increase in…

Tesla CEO Elon Musk said Thursday the company will reveal the production version of its second-generation Roadster supercar on April 1, 2026 — nearly nine years after he first revealed the project. Musk, who is famous for missing deadlines, said during Tesla’s annual shareholder meeting that he chose April Fools’ Day in part because it affords “some deniability.” “Like, I could say I was just kidding” if it happens to be later, he said. Revealing the production version of the new Roadster next year is in itself a delay. Just one week ago he appeared on Joe Rogan’s podcast and…

.On-demand drug release is one of the main challenges in nanocarrier design and a key step toward enhancing the efficacy of novel therapeutic formulations. Compared to conventional methods such as pH- or light-driven release, ultrasound-guided drug release offers a cost-effective strategy with improved tissue penetration making it particularly suitable for applications in hard-to-access tissues such as pancreas. In this study, hollow nanoparticles (hPDA) were developed and evaluated for ultrasound-enhanced drug delivery, focusing on pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). The hPDA nanoparticles, prepared employing non-toxic reagents, measured approximately 120 nm and were successfully loaded with SN-38, a potent yet challenging-to-formulate chemotherapeutic agent.…

I’ve been doing not just Unit Testing for my sites but full on Integration Testing and Browser Automation Testing as early as 2007 with Selenium. Lately, however, I’ve been using the faster and generally more compatible Playwright. It has one API and can test on Windows, Linux, Mac, locally, in a container (headless), in my CI/CD pipeline, on Azure DevOps, or in GitHub Actions. For me, it’s that last moment of truth to make sure that the site runs completely from end to end. I can write those Playwright tests in something like TypeScript, and I could launch…

In this episode, Will Wilson, CEO and co-founder of Antithesis, explores Deterministic Simulation Testing (DST) with host Sriram Panyam. Wilson was part of the pioneering team at FoundationDB that developed this revolutionary testing approach, which was later acquired by Apple in 2015. After seeing that even sophisticated organizations lacked robust testing for distributed systems, Wilson co-founded Antithesis in 2018 to make DST commercially available. Deterministic simulation testing runs software in a fully controlled, simulated environment in which all sources of non-determinism are eliminated or controlled. Unlike traditional testing or chaos engineering, DST operates in a separate environment from production, allowing…

“ACCC has taken this very seriously and even hinted at legal action over this pricing issue. So yes, this kind of pressure, from both the government and users who are paying for your product, has put a lot of pressure on Microsoft,” he said. “Australia’s consumer laws are strict, probably some of the toughest across the globe and companies usually take complaints seriously because there they have to. When you have millions of users, who are not satisfied with your product’s pricing and the regulator is also involved, a small statement not enough. Accepting your fault and offering refunds sounds…

Scientists at the USC Viterbi School of Engineering and the School of Advanced Computing have created artificial neurons that reproduce the intricate electrochemical behavior of real brain cells. The discovery, published in Nature Electronics, marks a major milestone in neuromorphic computing, a field that designs hardware modeled after the human brain. This advancement could shrink chip sizes by orders of magnitude, cut energy use dramatically, and push artificial intelligence closer to achieving artificial general intelligence. Unlike digital processors or earlier neuromorphic chips that only simulate brain activity through mathematical models, these new neurons physically reproduce how real neurons operate. Just…
