Microsoft offers buyouts to 60,000 employees. This latest exit offer is available to far more employees than the previous retirement one, and comes just months after Microsoft laid off 4,800 employees. Full details here 👇theverge.com/tech/1018666/mi…

Just got Apple’s statement on cracked / broken inner screens on some iPhone Duo units: “We are aware of an issue impacting the inner display on a small number of iPhone Duo units. If users experience issues with their iPhone Duo display, they should contact AppleCare for a replacement.” A few more points from Apple: ➡️ The issue is affecting a very small number of units. ➡️ The defect appears to show up relatively quickly after people begin using the device Translation: Please do not call this HingeGate! It's not a gate!

At least one real estate agent fighting back. Or maybe telling AI to pretend not to be AI. Who can tell!

"Not in this economy."
Super strange - No Ternus. Also, Vanessa Trigub instead of Deirdre O’Brien. She’s the somewhat newly named head of retail stores and likely O’Brien’s eventual successor.

MSFT and GOOG just said no —meaning 16 of 63 publicly traded firms have already opted out. Feels like the bottom is falling out for OKX and NYSE Tokenized stocks are the future (the tech is just better!) but the path to adoption will be a rocky one

And here it is on Amazon, so you can return it if things don't work out and 5% Prime Card cash back - if you have. Tho, I gotta say, I'm a big fan of the original. Maybe the ONLY Wyze product I recommend. link.amazon/B02CsDXbM

Hell yeah. No one should be pulling off sheets and taking out the trash on vacation. One reason we haven't used AirBnB in years. The Florida home with the remotely locked thermostat is another reason. :/ theverge.com/tech/1015844/ai…

Amazon would have been better served by a single large event. One half dedicated to entertainment, the other to security, with Alexa and smartphone a thread tying it altogether. (Although their Thread is Sidewalk and, uh, ugh.:)

Smarthome. Autocomplete and no free edit button got me again.

And here it is: Anthropic is making their own Grok Bot / Dots / personal agent app. With Opus 5.5, I feel like this will be INCREDIBLE. Can't wait to test it.
We’re opening a research preview of Claude Duet, a new app where Claude works as a proactive agent. It comes to you with what needs your attention, completes tasks you ask of it, keeps working when you step away, and checks with you before it acts on your behalf.

Beyond the new solar/battery cam announced today, Wyze will likely also announce a smart *lever* door lock this week. Tho I rarely recommend Wyze... :)
