Micron hit record earnings, but the stock still crashed. Why? Because the AI memory war is growing expensive, and investors are starting to panic. Micron just proved that being the leader in AI memory is a double-edged sword. The manufacturer’s latest earnings report was actually fantastic. They beat expectations across the board because every tech giant on earth needs their high-bandwidth memory chips. However, the stock price plummeted immediately after this call. And the reason is simple: greed vs. reality. Wall Street wants the massive profits from the AI revolution, but they don’t want to pay for the factories. Micron…

Sadly for young Singaporeans, the median salary for fresh university graduates in full-time employment remained at the same level of S$4,500 in 2025 as in 2024 (the figure excludes bonuses and employer’s CPF), according to the annual Graduate Employment Survey published by the Ministry of Education earlier this month. What’s more, fewer of them succeeded in finding permanent employment within six months of graduation, at 74.4%, compared to 79.4% in 2024. Fortunately, however, some good news regarding their future was buried in the data provided by Ministry…

The latest information available online indicates that the 2026 redesign of the XPS lineup marks some of the most significant improvements…
Jeff Bezos framed this copy of a 2006 BusinessWeek cover, reflecting Wall Street’s skepticism about AWS. (Jeff Bezos via X, May 2022) In the early days of Amazon Web Services, technical evangelist Jeff Barr was putting in long hours on the road, pitching a novel concept: rent computing power for 10 cents an hour, and storage for 15 cents a gigabyte per month — no servers to buy, no data centers to build. Barr remembers calling his wife to check in at the end of the day. Get a nice dinner, she told him, you deserve it. But later, at…
The war with Iran and ensuing blockade in the Strait of Hormuz, a critical shipping lane, has spiked oil prices and sent governments scrabbling for their reserves. How high will prices go, and how bad could it get?On Friday night, United Airlines CEO Scott Kirby published a memo to his employees showing that his very fuel-dependent business is prepping for a very long fallout. “Our plans assume oil goes to $175/barrel and doesn’t get back down to $100/barrel until the end of 2027,” he wrote.Jet fuel accounts for between a quarter and a third of airlines’ operating costs. Prices have…

The most unique thing about human beings is this: We are creatures who long to matter.That’s according to Rebecca Newberger Goldstein, the philosopher and author of a new book called The Mattering Instinct. If you’ve ever wondered why we humans are so singularly obsessed with discovering the meaning of life, this book — and her ideas — are for you.Goldstein presents an evolutionary explanation that starts off with a law of physics: the law of entropy, which basically says that things naturally tend toward disorder and destruction over time. All biological creatures need to devote a huge amount of energy…
For years, the “wall” between storage and networking administrators has been a fixture of the enterprise data center. I spent the early part of my career as a network engineer and the arena of storage was a bit of a black box, and for most companies, that’s still the case. This is because these networks operated differently. Storage teams obsessed over IOPS and durability, while networking teams lived and breathed latency and throughput. But at Nvidia GTC 2026, Chief Executive Jensen Huang just introduced a platform that effectively tears that wall down: the Nvidia BlueField-4 STX storage architecture (pictured). Nvidia announced…
Instagram is relinquishing end-to-end encryption this May. Meta is trading your privacy for a quieter life with regulators. It is a massive U-turn. Meta is officially abandoning the “privacy” dream. Your Instagram messages will no longer have end-to-end encryption starting this May. For years, Mark Zuckerberg told us that private communication is a fundamental right. He spent millions on ads telling us how safe our messages were. Now, he is quietly opening the door for everyone to take a look. The company is hiding behind the “child safety” argument. They claim that removing encryption will help them catch bad actors.…
We just wrapped up another exhausting, inspiring, and chaotic Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, and I’ve been standardizing my thoughts on what we saw. If you came looking for incremental updates to your favorite glass slab, you were probably disappointed. If you came looking for the beginning of the next major epoch in personal technology, MWC 2026 was a goldmine. For years, we’ve been predicting the collision of AI, robotics, and personalization. We’ve been waiting for the moment when our “smart” devices stop acting like highly reactive dictionaries and start acting like proactive partners. That moment has arrived. MWC 2026…
