Apple is reportedly planning new iPad Pro and MacBook Pro releases early next year

You, too, can build this ESP32 plane tracker to keep an eye on the skies

Một người chơi nghiệp dư đã chế tạo bộ theo dõi chuyến bay ESP32-S3 hiển thị dữ liệu máy bay gần thời gian thực bằng API OpenSky Network, cập nhật 120 giây/lần. Thiết bị gồm hai màn hình (TFT + OLED), cần điều khiển (joystick) và nút bấm, vốn được thiết kế làm module cho máy chơi game cầm tay rồi sau đó được tái sử dụng thành bộ theo dõi chuyến bay độc lập. Mã nguồn và hướng dẫn lắp ráp có trên GitHub.

Lập trình viên sẽ tìm hiểu cách tích hợp API công khai OpenSky Network vào dự án IoT của mình để theo dõi vị trí máy bay với chi phí thấp và tính năng đa dạng, từ đó mở rộng khả năng ứng dụng trong các giải pháp giám sát không gian không gian.

AMD's new CPU core type just got unlocked on Linux before it was even announced

A Linux kernel patch submitted by AMD engineer Vishal Badole introduces support for a new 'Low Power' CPU core type, intended for background and idle tasks to minimize energy drain. This third core type would sit alongside existing Performance and Efficiency cores, similar to Intel's Low Power Efficient cores. Currently, Linux reports these as 'unknown' cpu_type since no chips using them exist yet and AMD hasn't officially announced them. The patch is preemptive groundwork, with the cores expected to appear in Zen 6 Mobile APUs and next-gen handheld CPUs.

This Asus ZenBook 14 with OLED touchscreen and Ryzen AI 7 is now $401 off

Máy tính xách tay Asus ZenBook 14 OLED giảm giá còn 799 USD (từ 1.200 USD), trang bị chip AMD Ryzen AI 7 445, 16GB RAM, 1TB SSD, màn hình OLED 14 inch cảm ứng và chứng nhận MIL-STD 810H. Máy không có GPU rời nhưng đủ sức xử lý công việc nhẹ và game thông thường nhờ card đồ họa tích hợp.

Laptop này phù hợp với những lập trình viên cần thiết kế UI/UX, phát triển ứng dụng nhẹ hoặc làm việc với các dự án đồ họa nhờ màn hình OLED sắc nét và màn hình chạm, đồng thời có cấu hình mạnh cho việc chạy các IDE và môi trường phát triển.

iPhone 18 Pro supplier list and parts exposed in Tata data leak

A ransomware group called World Leaks has published files stolen from Tata Electronics, Apple's manufacturing partner in India, exposing iPhone 18 Pro component lists, supplier names, and photographs from drop tests. The leaked bill of materials reveals Apple's supplier architecture — including where it sources from multiple vendors for bargaining leverage and where single-source dependencies create supply chain vulnerabilities. The breach is the second ransomware incident involving Tata, following an earlier claim of stolen Apple and Tesla trade secrets. Apple is investigating alongside Tata, but the supplier maps are already public, posing competitive and strategic risks beyond a typical privacy incident.

Understanding dynamic resource allocation in Kubernetes

Dynamic Resource Allocation (DRA) reached GA in Kubernetes v1.35, offering a more flexible and expressive way to allocate GPU and other devices compared to the legacy Device Plugin. Using a real lab environment with NVIDIA A5000 and T10 GPUs, the post walks through four hands-on scenarios: sharing a single GPU across multiple containers via ResourceClaim, using ResourceClaimTemplate with firstAvailable priority ordering to prefer an A5000 and fall back to T10, filtering GPUs by memory capacity using CEL expressions, and enabling GPU Time Slicing under DRA. Key DRA concepts covered include DeviceClass, ResourceSlice, ResourceClaim, and ResourceClaimTemplate, with analogies drawn to Kubernetes storage primitives. The post also notes upcoming features like device health reporting in v1.36 and potential Cluster Autoscaler integration for GPU nodes.

Terminus Is A Text Only Phone Because Telephony Is Dead Anyway

A DIY text-only cell phone project called TERMINUS, built by Bolan Xu, strips away voice calls, cameras, and apps in favor of a QWERTY keyboard and OLED display driven by an ESP8266. The device supports SMS messaging via a cellular modem, with an original plan to bridge over WiFi as an SMS-over-IP solution. The prototype trades smartphone features for simplicity and freedom from spam calls and spyware.

Raspberry Pi CM0-based industrial data acquisition gateway features RS-485, RS-232, DI, and DO interfaces

EDATEC's ED-IPC1200 is an industrial data acquisition gateway built around the Raspberry Pi Compute Module Zero (CM0). It features RS-485, RS-232, 4x digital inputs, and 4x digital outputs with 3.75kV isolation, plus 10/100Mbps Ethernet, optional Wi-Fi/Bluetooth, and 4G LTE connectivity. Powered by a Broadcom BCM2710A1 quad-core Cortex-A53 at 1.0 GHz with 512MB RAM and up to 16GB eMMC, it runs Raspberry Pi OS with drivers for industrial interfaces and supports CODESYS, Node-RED, Python, and OpenCV. The fanless unit accepts 9–28V DC input, operates from -20°C to +60°C, and supports DIN-rail mounting. It differs from the earlier ED-IPC1100 by adding DI/DO for direct sensor and relay connections. Priced at $150–$200 on DigiKey, an upcoming ED-IPC1220 variant with expanded I/O is also in the works.
