Samsung Wants To Let You Vibe Code Your Galaxy Phone Experience

9 March 2026 at 20:00
Samsung says it's thinking about bringing "vibe coding" to future Galaxy phones, allowing users to describe apps or interface changes in plain language and have AI generate the code. TechRadar interviewed Won-Joon Choi, Samsung's head of mobile experience, to learn more about the plans. Here's an excerpt from their report: As noted by Won-Joon Choi, the usefulness of vibe coding on smartphones is that it opens up the "possibility of customizing your smartphone experience in new ways, not just your apps but your UX." He added, "Right now we're limited to premade tools, but with vibe coding, users could adjust their favorite apps or make something customized to their needs. So vibe coding is very interesting, and something we're looking into." [...] Samsung recently debuted the Galaxy S26 series of phones and made a point to not call them smartphones -- they're "AI phones" now. This certainly rang true with the majority of upgrades to the devices being AI software-focused, like the new Now Nudge and expanded Audio Eraser tools, with the biggest hardware bump for the base models coming via the 39% improved NPU processing (the processor in charge of on-device AI tasks). It also teased the debut of Perplexity on its phones, joining as an alternative to the Gemini assistant, and teased the possibility of other AI models getting the same treatment in the future.

Huion Kamvas 22 (Gen 3) Review

For digital artists, it is a great time to be looking for hardware.

As a professional cartoonist and cartographer working exclusively in the digital workspace for about two decades, pen display tablets are where I live with my work. As a result, I have used/tested many models, shapes, and sizes in my years.

M5 Pro & M5 Max MacBook Pro review roundup: More of the same, at a higher price

Early reviews of the M5 Pro and M5 Max MacBook Pro models are here, and while the improved performance is good, nobody is a fan of the $200 price increase.

Early reviews of the M5 Pro and M5 Max MacBook Pro are here.

The M5 Pro and M5 Max versions of the 14-inch MacBook Pro and 16-inch MacBook Pro were announced on March 3, offering better performance. The two laptops are spec bump upgrades, meaning there's effectively no other change, relative to the preceding M4 Pro and M4 Max models.

As a result, most reviews of the new laptop configurations focus largely on the processing hardware, what it can do, and how it performs in various tasks, be they hardware-intensive or not.

EA Lays Off Staff Across All Battlefield Studios Following Record-Breaking Battlefield 6 Launch

9 March 2026 at 18:00
Electronic Arts has laid off staff across multiple Battlefield studios despite Battlefield 6 being the best-selling game in the U.S. in 2025 and the "biggest launch in franchise history." According to IGN, the layoffs include workers at Criterion, Dice, Ripple Effect, and Motive Studios. From the report: Individuals are being informed that the layoffs are taking place as part of a "realignment" across the Battlefield studios, as the team continues its ongoing, live service support for Battlefield 6 following launch. All four studios will remain operational, though the layoffs seem to be impacting a variety of teams across multiple studios and offices. IGN asked EA for comment on total number and types of roles impacted, as well as for the specific reasons for the layoffs. An EA spokesperson told IGN: "We've made select changes within our Battlefield organization to better align our teams around what matters most to our community. Battlefield remains one of our biggest priorities, and we're continuing to invest in the franchise, guided by player feedback and insights from Battlefield Labs."

Which hosting company has the best email/calendar/contacts app for mobile?

I'll be shopping around for web hosting in the near future. The website will show what services my business offers and will need to have a way for potential customers to contact me. I know many of the hosting companies offer email accounts and should I choose to use an email account tied to my domain, I'd want to be able to check emails on my iPhone. Who has the best email app for mobile?

Early reviews of the $3299 Apple Studio Display XDR are here, and while they overwhelmingly praise the hardware, there are a few shared points of criticism.

The Apple Studio Display XDR debuted on March 3, replacing the Apple Pro Display XDR. Reviews of the new high-end external display began appearing on Monday, shortly after the iPhone maker lifted its embargo.

Various publications were quick to higlight the 120Hz refresh rate support and the miniLED backlight of the Apple Studio Display XDR as positive attributes, but there was no shortage of criticism, either.

Live Nation Avoids Ticketmaster Breakup By 'Open Sourcing' Their Ticketing Model

9 March 2026 at 17:00
Live Nation reached a settlement with the U.S. Department of Justice that avoids breaking up its dominant live events empire with Ticketmaster. Instead, the deal requires changes like "open sourcing" their ticketing model and divesting some venues. NBC News reports: The company and the Justice Department reached a settlement on Monday, following a week of testimony during an antitrust trial that threatened to potentially separate the world's largest live entertainment company. [...] On a background call with reporters Monday, a senior justice official said the deal will drive down prices by giving both artists and consumers more choice. As part of the agreement, Ticketmaster will provide a standalone ticketing system that will allow third-party companies like SeatGeek and StubHub to offer primary tickets through the platform. The senior justice official described it as "open sourcing" their ticketing model. The company will also divest up to 13 amphitheaters and reserve 50% of tickets for nonexclusive venues. Ticketmaster is also prohibited from retaliating against a venue that selects another primary ticket distributor, among other requirements. Although a group of states have joined the DOJ in signing the agreement, other states can continue to press their own claims.

Clunky CRM experience given the AI advancement, is it just me?

We are using HubSpot, in the past we've also used Salesforce, and several other ones. But all of these CRM seems to be built on the same structure with different color. It feels quite clunky to me.

Mainly I found myself switching between tabs, tables, and pages to trace down some information. It seems that CRM like HubSpot are built based on their underlying table schema, not for user experience. So I have to follow their tables, clicking, find the next link, click, etc. I have a technical background in the past and are reasonably savvy with a lot of tools. But this experience just feels 2020 to me. Can AI do something with it?

There are some custom workflows I do all the time, such as checking notes of a company/lead in the past before taking a call or writing a custom follow up email, or updating status of a lead after follow-up, etc. Although these are minor things, but given the fact that I pretty much live in CRM every day, I really wish there is something that is closer to Claude/ChatGPT experience.

Note that the workflow I'm referring to is different from the workflow feature in HubSpot. It's essentially an integration hub that plumbing things together, which is needed, but doesn't solve my experience and productivity issue.

Yes, they do have a AI chatbot on the right side, but it's nothing more than wall of text plus search and links. I didn't find myself gaining productivity leveraging it.

I have a technical background in the past, and I'm quite good at using all kinds of tools. I mean, the way CRM currently is, I can definitely do my work with it. But what makes me wonder is, am I alone feeling these kind of clunkiness? anyone else also has workflow that CRM doesn't build for you?

How are you handling an influx of code from non-engineering teams?

Obligatory not trying to sell you something. 😂

I’ve been around long enough to make it through a wave or two of low code/no code tools including things like UiPath back when it was a desktop app and had no AI smarts.

Now, not only do engineers have access to Claude Code et al, but accounting, finance, and Human Resources all have access to the same toolbox. And some are vibing away!

Our engineers understand there is more than just building a shiny UI in a container and that there are considerations for where it’s hosted, how it’s secured, where the code is hosted, and who is going to own the thing not to mention who’s going to vibe in a browning code base. The vibe coding population has told their LLM of choice that they’re not engineers and it’s happily barreling them forward to get things deployed all of that be damned.

How are you handling all that? I’m finding the idea of documentation (how to build and how to deploy) welcome, but also encountering folks who are way out over their skis but pressing on with personal GitHub accounts, free plans on various AI first hosting platforms, and deploying to cloud hosting providers they found the keys for and were previously unknown to ops. 😬

I’ve worked in orgs with strict governance but my understanding even of those orgs is that the AI bug has infected many. Trying to balance ‘hey, let’s slow down just a bit and get this managed properly’ with ‘oh, very important people saw you demo that flashy solution and want to know why it’s not immediately available’.

What’s working or not working for you in this area?

New site has a header that I cant remove or edit?

9 March 2026 at 16:05

What the website looks like to visitors

The white header in the photo above does not appear in my editor. Its a sticky header, which is what I want the black one to be, but I cannot set the black header to sticky either. The photo below is what I see in the editor. I cannot select where it says home, it doesn't recognize it as a block, double clicking doesn't do anything either. This site editor has given me quite the headache, any help is greatly appreciated.

TrueNAS build system going closed source

Readme updated today:

This repository is no longer actively maintained.

The TrueNAS build system previously hosted here has been moved to an internal infrastructure. This transition was necessary to meet new security requirements, including support for Secure Boot and related platform integrity features that require tighter control over the build and signing pipeline.

No further updates, pull requests, or issues will be accepted. Existing content is preserved here for historical reference only.

https://github.com/truenas/scale-build

Wondering if this is just the first step towards doing a minio in the future.
