Deemed granted refers to a process where satellite license applications are automatically approved if the FCC does not act within a specified timeframe, shifting from a 'default to no' to a 'default to yes' framework for straightforward requests, with amendments adding safeguards like constellation size thresholds and spectrum exclusions.

Amendments require the FCC to establish rules within two years for eligible applications, exclude spectrum reserved for federal use or shared bands, consider constellation size thresholds (e.g., responding to large Starlink proposals), allow extensions for safety or interference issues, provide a 15-business-day cure period, and permit court challenges.

Now Nudge is a Galaxy AI-powered feature that analyzes the screen content in real time to provide proactive suggestions, such as surfacing relevant screenshots, notes, or messages (e.g., flight confirmations when opening a travel app) and offering one-tap actions like opening Maps for an address or creating calendar events from chats.

Now Nudge, inspired by Google's Magic Cue, uses on-device AI to read screen context and offer suggestions across more third-party apps within the Galaxy AI ecosystem, emphasizing privacy through local Neural Processing Unit processing rather than cloud reliance.

The updated CarPlay app features a redesigned interface that is smoother and more intuitive, allowing users to explore playlists by genre, access shuffle play, and use Siri voice commands to play audio. Users can now select individual tracks from playlists rather than automatically playing entire playlists, and curated playlists are more prominently featured. The playback core has been rebuilt for faster, near-instant actions and improved overall stability.

Hi-res audio refers to high-resolution audio formats that deliver superior sound quality compared to standard streaming. Qobuz is compatible with major wireless listening devices and hi-fi equipment from prestigious audio brands, allowing users to experience the full benefits of high-resolution music without quality loss through their compatible audio systems. This positions Qobuz as a premium option for audiophiles and music enthusiasts who prioritize sound quality.

A crypto ETF is an exchange-traded fund that provides exposure to cryptocurrencies like bitcoin or ether by holding the underlying assets or related futures contracts, allowing investors to gain access through traditional brokerage accounts without directly managing digital wallets or private keys.[2][5]

A staking-focused fund for Cronos involves locking up Cronos (CRO) tokens in a proof-of-stake blockchain network to help validate transactions and secure the network, earning staking rewards in return, which the ETF would aim to capture for investors.[1]

Shumer likens the AI era to February 2020, when early warnings about COVID-19 seemed overblown but rapidly led to global upheaval, arguing that AI's rapid advancements will similarly transform society on a much larger scale in a short time.

Unlike past automation that replaced specific skills, allowing workers to retrain into unaffected areas, AI acts as a general substitute for all cognitive work and improves across every domain simultaneously, leaving no safe gaps for retraining.

'Name Tag' is Meta's internally codnamed facial recognition feature planned for Ray-Ban smart glasses that would allow wearers to identify people and retrieve information about them through Meta's AI assistant. The feature would work by analyzing faces the wearer looks at and surfacing identifying information and context via the glasses' AI capabilities. According to Meta's plans, the feature could identify people a user knows through Meta platforms or those with public accounts on Meta sites like Instagram, though it reportedly would not allow users to look up literally anyone they encounter.

Meta originally considered adding facial recognition to its first Ray-Ban smart glasses in 2021 but abandoned those plans due to technical challenges and ethical concerns. The company has acknowledged that the feature carries significant 'safety and privacy risks.' Key concerns include the potential for misuse in profiling, surveillance, and harassment of bystanders who have not consented to being identified. The technology could enable doxing and unauthorized identification of strangers, as demonstrated in 2024 when Harvard students used Meta's Ray-Ban glasses with third-party facial recognition software to identify people on the Boston subway and retrieve their personal information including home addresses and phone numbers.

Micro Four Thirds (MFT) is an open standard camera system created by Olympus and Panasonic that features a smaller sensor (18mm × 13.5mm) compared to full-frame cameras (36mm × 24mm)[3]. The system is significant because it's an open standard that allows third-party manufacturers to create compatible camera bodies and lenses, promoting a diverse ecosystem[3]. When new manufacturers like Sonida join the Micro Four Thirds System, it expands the available options for photographers seeking compact, lightweight cameras with interchangeable lenses[5]. The open standard means users can mix and match camera bodies and lenses from different manufacturers within the same mount[6].

Micro Four Thirds cameras offer several compelling advantages beyond image quality. They are significantly more compact and lightweight than full-frame alternatives, making them ideal for travel and mobile photography[2][5]. MFT cameras excel in computational photography features—such as Olympus's ProCapture mode, handheld high-resolution multi-shot modes, and in-camera focus stacking—that help close the capability gap with larger-sensor cameras[4]. Additionally, many MFT cameras feature exceptional in-body image stabilization that works with optical image stabilization in lenses, professional-grade video capabilities (including 4K at 60fps and even 6K recording on some models), and advanced features like shutter angle control typically found only on professional cinema cameras[2]. The system also benefits from a diverse lens lineup from multiple manufacturers[5].

A higher low occurs when an asset's price drops to a point that is still higher than its previous lowest price level. This pattern indicates that selling pressure is weakening and buyers are stepping in at progressively higher prices, suggesting potential upward momentum. In the context of a relief rally, establishing a higher low means the market is finding support at elevated levels, which traders interpret as a sign of building bullish sentiment and potential trend reversal from bearish to bullish conditions.

A higher low is bullish because it demonstrates that market participants are willing to buy at progressively higher price levels, indicating growing buying pressure and weakening selling pressure. This pattern shows strong support at each successive low point and suggests that the market has established resistance levels at consistently higher levels. When combined with a relief rally—where prices recover after a decline—a higher low signals that the downtrend may be reversing and an uptrend could be developing, making it a positive indicator for traders anticipating continued price appreciation.

Section 179 deductions are primarily available to businesses, not individuals making personal purchases. To qualify, a vehicle must be used for business purposes at least 50% of the time. However, individuals may benefit from a new deduction effective 2025-2028 that allows up to $10,000 annually in deductions for interest paid on car loans used to purchase qualified vehicles for personal use, though this phases out for taxpayers with modified adjusted gross income over $100,000 ($200,000 for joint filers).

Section 179 allows businesses to deduct up to $2,500,000 in qualifying equipment and vehicles in the year of purchase, with a separate $31,300-$32,000 cap for heavy SUVs. Bonus depreciation, restored to 100% for 2026, allows businesses to deduct a percentage of the vehicle's purchase price with no annual cap on SUVs. Both can be combined: a business using 100% bonus depreciation on a qualifying heavy SUV could potentially write off the entire purchase price in year one, whereas Section 179 alone is limited to the SUV cap.
