Gabriele Farina grew up in a small town in a hilly winemaking region of northern Italy. Neither of his parents had college degrees, and although both were convinced they “didn’t understand math,” Farina says, they bought him the technical books he wanted and didn’t discourage him from attending the science-oriented, rather than the classical, high school.By around age 14, Farina had focused on an idea that would prove foundational to his career.“I was fascinated very early by the idea that a machine could make predictions or decisions so much better than humans,” he says. “The fact that human-made mathematics and…

The machines are roughly the size of a school bus, take months to assemble, involve hundreds of suppliers, and cost anywhere from…

Connor Hayes, Meta’s head of Threads, said in a post that web messaging was the most requested feature from users after the company first introduced DMs in July 2025. “Our most engaged people spend time on web because they’re at their desks, tapped in, using Threads for longer sessions,” Hayes wrote in his Threads post. “A conversation app…

Paris-based Sequans Communications sold 1,025 bitcoin during the first quarter of 2026, cutting its digital asset reserves nearly in half as the IoT semiconductor maker grappled with declining revenue and mounting losses tied to a treasury strategy that has turned from ambitious to burdensome. The sale reduced Sequans’ bitcoin position from 2,139 BTC at year-end 2025 to 1,114 BTC by April 30, marking the second major disposal in six months for a company that less than a year ago proclaimed plans to accumulate 3,000 bitcoin as a “long-term store of value”.
