Anti-drone netting is becoming so common on Ukraine’s roads that enough was laid this year to run from the northern to southern ends of Florida.Ukraine’s defense ministry said on Saturday that it has installed 822 kilometers, or about 510 miles, of “anti-drone protection” on its frontline roads this year.About 131 miles of that protection — heavy-duty netting that entangles incoming attack quadcopters — was laid in May alone, the ministry said.The length of Florida from north to south, meanwhile, is about 447 miles if one drives from the Georgia border to Key West, the state’s southernmost city.”Reliable logistics near the…

The next battle in AI will have less to do with model quality and more to do with customer lock-in.For the past few years, OpenAI and Anthropic have competed relentlessly on model performance. But according to Samuel Colvin, CEO of AI startup Pydantic, the economics are changing.”A year ago, what they cared about was revenue,” Colvin told me recently. “Now, when one assumes they’re both trying to IPO, their profit margin becomes really important.”The problem is that competing solely on model quality is expensive. Frontier labs must spend billions training ever-better models that are soon emulated. That’s not a great…
Sabine Royalty Trust raises monthly dividend by 1% to $0.503 a share
This as-told-to essay is based on a conversation with Jacqueline Matwick, 38, who moved from Arizona to Turin, Italy, with her family in 2024. Matwick was anticipating receiving citizenship by descent through her husband, but the Italian government changed the requirements after they moved, and the Matwicks no longer qualified. The following has been edited for length and clarity.We were in New York for a long time. I was there eight years, my husband was there seven, and our oldest child was born there.We were new parents in New York City, and childcare was insane — it’s expensive everywhere, but…
New Yorkers, famously, are walking here. But just about 25% of them are driving too.Commuting undergirds New York’s economy, and shapes the daily lives of its workers. New York’s robust public transit system carries around six million passengers daily, and around 1.6 million people drive into Manhattan’s Central Business District daily.But not all commutes are created equal. As politicians like Zohran Mamdani eye affordability measures, proposals like free and fast buses have taken the spotlight. Longer commutes can have real health impacts, lower worker satisfaction, and dent productivity. In New York City, bus riders, and those in further-flung, historically more…
I hadn’t known that choosing to be a parent was also saying yes to an inevitable series of heartbreaks.It starts small. In their early teen years, you realize they’ve started keeping secrets. The number of subjects they’ll only discuss with friends keeps growing, while your role as confidant shrinks and fades (for the time being).In later teen years, the internal clock that tracks your waning time together begins to tick louder. Your home becomes a changing station — a pitstop between other, more exciting destinations — as your offspring come and go.When they leave for college, every visit, followed by…
Shortly after college, my then-boyfriend (now husband) and I moved several states away. We had both grown up and lived our entire lives up until that point in the Northeast, he in New York and me in Connecticut. But now, in our early 20s, we wanted a change. When he was offered a job in Florida, we saw it as the perfect opportunity to gain some independence.We did so pretty successfully for nearly a decade. During our time in Florida, we got engaged, got married, adopted a cat, held a variety of jobs, and sheltered through a pandemic. All the…
Champion Homes, Cavco rated Buy at UBS on demand for affordable housing
Earlier this year, I had a noble idea.For my job, I have to remember a lot of AI companies, so I thought I’d draw up a competition map for my desk. I’d divvy a sheet of paper into columns and list major companies based on which part of the AI supply chain they’re in.There were the labs — OpenAI, Anthropic, Google DeepMind, etc. — that are making models and chatbots. There were the AI coding platforms — Cursor, Cognition, and Replit among them — that build coding assistants powered by those models. Then, there were startups building hyper-specific applications: agents…
