USB-C has 24 pins, and at least 12 different ways to take them over.
DisplayPort, Thunderbolt, an HDMI mode nobody built, a VR standard that died in 2 years, and hidden ones from Apple and Nintendo.
Here's which pins each one takes.

The first crossing of exactly 1 light-day occurs on 18 Nov 2026 (~10:16 UTC). From that instant onward the Earth–Voyager distance stays permanently above 1 light-day.
Earth’s 1 AU orbit still produces a seasonal oscillation of a few light-minutes, so the gap does shrink for part of each year (range rate can go negative by ~8 km/s). Those dips are smaller than Voyager’s net outward advance of ~3.5 AU per year, so after the November crossing the distance never falls back below the threshold.

Physical AI will have a profound impact on our daily lives, but the data surrounding it is still very scattered.
We’re launching PhysicalAIData.com to bring it all together in one place.

Rest in peace, Nick Wray.
Nick was Neuralink participant P8, the 8th person in the world to receive the implant.
He lived with ALS for four and a half years and passed away on August 2, 2026, at 44.
With his implant, he used his phone, his laptop, and played video games just using his mind.
His family wrote that he considered Neuralink and his contribution to the knowledge of the human brain to be his purpose.
He was also a drummer, a barista and manager at Grounds for Thought, fluent in French, and a lover of Aruba and good coffee.
Thank you, Nick. What you gave will help every patient who comes after you.
Prayers and love to Alexia, his parents, his siblings, and all who miss him.

JUST IN: Canadian man wins city council election after telling voters he has no idea what he's doing, doesn't enjoy politics, & is unqualified for office.
