Apple Watch Series 11 vs. Google Pixel Watch 4 – The 2025 Smartwatch Showdown You Can’t Miss

2025’s Hottest Health Wearables: Smartwatches That Measure Blood Pressure & AirPods Pro 3 heart rate

Smartwatches That Monitor Blood Pressure (2025 Edition) Smartwatches are getting surprisingly adept at tracking blood pressure – one of the most vital (and tricky) health metrics. In 2025, you can actually buy watches that measure or detect blood pressure in various ways. Below we break down the major models and how they work, from true cuff-based devices to clever cuffless sensors: • Apple Watch Series 11 & Ultra 3 (2025) – Cuffless detection of hypertension. Apple took a different approach by focusing on hypertension notifications rather than giving on-demand BP readings. The Series 11 (and Ultra 3) introduced an algorithm that analyzes subtle changes

Smartphones Reach for the Skies: How Satellite Connectivity Is Revolutionizing Phones & Wearables

Introduction: Your Phone’s New Emergency Lifeline from Space Not long ago, the idea of texting from a smartphone to a satellite sounded like science fiction or at least something reserved for clunky satellite phones. But as of 2025, this has become reality for millions of consumers. Mainstream smartphones and even smartwatches can now connect directly to satellites orbiting Earth, allowing basic communication where traditional cell networks fail. This development marks a convergence of the mobile tech industry and the satellite industry, unlocking capabilities that were previously limited to specialized devices. At its core, this trend is about staying connected anywhere

Oracle’s ‘Truly Awesome’ AI Cloud Quarter Sends Stock Soaring 36%, Making Ellison World’s Richest

Oracle’s ‘Truly Awesome’ AI Cloud Quarter Sends Stock Soaring 36%, Making Ellison World’s Richest

Oracle’s AI-Fueled Quarter Stuns Wall Street Oracle’s latest earnings quarter shocked Wall Street and sent its stock soaring on an AI-fueled wave of optimism. Shares of Oracle jumped as much as 35–40% intraday and closed up about 36% on Wednesday, marking the company’s largest one-day gain in over three decades startupnews.fyi. This remarkable rally added roughly $250 billion to Oracle’s market capitalization and briefly vaulted Larry Ellison – who owns about 40% of Oracle – to the top of global wealth rankings startupnews.fyi. Ellison’s net worth climbed by nearly $100 billion in a day to around $393 billion, putting him neck-and-neck with (or even briefly ahead of) Tesla’s Elon

The Great AI Content Heist: How Bots Are Devouring the Internet – and How We Can Fight Back

The Great AI Content Heist: How Bots Are Devouring the Internet – and How We Can Fight Back

AI Companies Are Scraping the Web for Everything – Without Asking The rise of generative AI has kicked off an arms race for data, as AI companies seek to ingest as much online content as possible to train their models. Text from websites, images, code repositories, music – and now video – are all being vacuumed up. A bombshell report from The Atlantic in September 2025 revealed the sheer scale of this activity on YouTube: more than 15.8 million videos (from over 2 million channels) were quietly scraped and downloaded without permission as training data for AI theatlantic.com.

‘Closest to War Since WWII’: NATO Jets Down 19 Russian Drones Over Poland in Unprecedented Airspace Breach

‘Closest to War Since WWII’: NATO Jets Down 19 Russian Drones Over Poland in Unprecedented Airspace Breach

Unprecedented Drone Incursion Over Poland In the pre-dawn hours of September 11, 2025, Poland faced the most serious airspace violation in its modern history. Wave after wave of drones penetrated Polish territory from the east over a span of about seven hours. In total, Polish authorities logged 19 separate airspace violations by unmanned aircraft during what was a massive Russian aerial attack on neighboring Ukraine. This was far from a stray drone or wayward missile – it was a coordinated swarm incursion on a scale NATO countries had never before seen in this war. Polish officials quickly labeled it an “act of aggression” and a deliberate provocation

Billion-Dollar “Eyes in the Sky”: Inside AWACS Tech, Costs, and the Global Airborne Radar Race

Comprehensive Overview of AWACS Aircraft and Technology AWACS Technology: Radars, Sensors, and Systems Modern AWACS aircraft are essentially flying sensor hubs and command centers. At their core is a powerful radar designed for all-around aerial surveillance. Classic AWACS like the E-3 Sentry use a spinning dish antenna (rotodome) on the fuselage, which mechanically rotates every 10–12 seconds to scan 360° euro-sd.com. In contrast, latest designs use Active Electronically Scanned Array (AESA) radars that steer beams electronically.

Agentic AI Revolution: How Autonomous, Goal-Driven AI Agents Are Reshaping Our World

Comprehensive Overview of Agentic AI What Is Agentic AI (and How Is It Different from Traditional AI)? Agentic AI, often described as autonomous, goal-oriented AI, refers to AI systems endowed with a form of “agency.” In practical terms, an agentic AI can make independent decisions and take actions in pursuit of an objective, without needing a human to prompt each step. It’s a step beyond traditional AI models that simply respond to explicit inputs. For example, a classic AI system (say, a chess program or a language model like ChatGPT) generates outputs only when prompted and doesn’t initiate further action

Ozempic for Alzheimer’s? How GLP-1 Weight-Loss Drugs Could Fight Neurodegenerative Diseases

GLP-1 Receptor Agonists and Neurodegenerative Diseases in 2025 GLP-1 receptor agonists like semaglutide (Ozempic®) are typically given via a weekly injection pen. Originally developed for diabetes and obesity, these drugs are now being studied for their effects on the brain. From Diabetes to Dementia: Why GLP-1 Drugs Are Being Tested for Brain Diseases Just a few years ago, GLP-1 receptor agonists were known mainly as diabetes and weight-loss medications. GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1) is a natural hormone that helps regulate blood sugar and appetite. Drugs like Ozempic (semaglutide) and Victoza (liraglutide) mimic this hormone, improving insulin release and promoting a feeling

Saltwater Revolution: How Osmotic Power Could Be the Next Big Clean Energy Source

Saltwater Revolution: How Osmotic Power Could Be the Next Big Clean Energy Source

What Is Osmotic Power and How Does It Work? Osmotic power (or salinity gradient energy) is electricity generated from the natural process of osmosis – the movement of water across a membrane from a dilute solution to a salty solution theguardian.com. At river deltas where freshwater meets the ocean, immense chemical energy is continuously released as the two mix. Osmotic power plants capture a portion of this energy by separating fresh and salt water with special membranes in a controlled setting theguardian.com.

Structural Battery Composites: The Game-Changing Tech Turning Vehicles into Batteries

Structural Battery Composites: A Deep Dive What Are Structural Battery Composites (SBCs) and How Do They Work? In a nutshell, Structural Battery Composites are materials that function as both the skeleton and the battery of a device. Traditional batteries are standalone units – think of the heavy lithium-ion pack bolted into an electric car’s floor. That pack provides energy but adds dead weight and usually needs its own casing for protection. SBCs flip this concept: the energy storage is built into the device’s structure itself, so the material that carries load (like a car frame, body panel, or drone wing)

Leopard-Spotted Mars Rock Could Hold ‘Clearest Sign of Life’ Yet, NASA Says

Leopard-Spotted Mars Rock Could Hold ‘Clearest Sign of Life’ Yet, NASA Says

A Mysterious Rock in an Ancient Martian Riverbed NASA’s Perseverance rover, which landed in Jezero Crater in 2021, has been on the hunt for signs of past life. In an ancient river channel called Neretva Vallis – once a conduit for water into Jezero’s lake – the rover spotted something unusual last year washingtonpost.com theguardian.com. A flat, fine-grained mudstone rock caught scientists’ attention because its surface was dotted with multicolored spots and tiny nodules. The science team nicknamed the rock “Cheyava Falls,” after a waterfall in the Grand Canyon, due to its shape.
