Weekly output: Waze updates, Google Images turns 25, Samsung turns to more titanium, Frontier Airlines + Starlink, bill to ban Chinese cars

This week may have featured an unwanted import of smoky, hazy air from Canadian wildfires, but at least that miasma did not descend on the District until Friday–the day after I got to the one Fort Reno concert I’m likely to be able to see this summer.

Patreon readers got a bonus post assessing when I’m likely to need to replace my three oldest computers–and explaining why the oldest machine is not at the front of that list.

7/13/2026: Waze Gets AI, Personalization Options—Including One to Make It Less Chatty, PCMag

I have to admit that I had not used Waze in quite some time, so I downloaded a copy to refresh my memory. I’m glad I did, as this exercise reminded that Waze has yet to match Google’s ability to show which routing will be most efficient.

7/14/2026: Google Images Marks Its 25 Birthday by Adding AI Image Generation, PCMag

This was another Google item from an embargoed announcement. It was going to be an unusually short post, but then I realized that Google’s anniversary post didn’t mention the date the company launched Google Images. Some quick Googling surfaced a New York Times story apparently written on that day, July 12, 2001.

7/14/2026: Samsung Teases New Screen Substrate for Its Next Foldable: Titanium, PCMag

One of my editors asked if I could pick up this announcement; since I try to be the guy who solves problems for my editors and since I rarely get to cover metallurgical topics, I said I would.

7/15/2026: Frontier Airlines Is Adding Starlink, But You Might Have to Pay for It, PCMag

I was going to write this Tuesday but had to set it aside for the Samsung news. But that delay gave me some extra time to send a further round of questions to Frontier’s PR office about their weird unwillingness to say what the service will cost (if an ultra-low-cost carrier that literally has “ULCC” as its stock ticker doesn’t say upfront that a service is free, it’s not going to be free) and whether they would finally add power outlets (apparently not).

7/18/2026: Bill Would Ban Chinese Connected Cars in the US—From Sale and on the Streets, PCMag

I could have written this post in fewer words if I hadn’t gotten into how Congress has done nothing to address people’s privacy concerns about non-Chinese connected cars, but I wasn’t going to do that. I will not stop reminding readers about how Congress keeps failing to pass any sort of comprehensive privacy legislation.

The right-wing #AmericanEnterpriseInstitute has turned on Trump's #BigBeautifulBill. I didn't expect to start my Monday by agreeing with #AEI

I don't understand #tariffs well enough to comment. But when the #AmericanEnterpriseInstitute, a #conservative think-tank that focuses on #economic policy, says #Trump 's approach is wrong, I believe it. #AEI has supported many #Republican policies in the past, so it's a big deal for them to criticize him. https://www.aei.org/economics/president-trumps-tariff-formula-makes-no-economic-sense-its-also-based-on-an-error/

"The Bell Curve" is a highly controversial 1994 book by Richard Herrnstein and Charles Murray. It purports to show that intelligence is dispositive in the trajectory of each person's life, and that can be used to predict such things as socioeconomic status and tendencies toward criminal behavior.

Much of the research in The Bell Curve is not disputed, but the conclusions drawn from it (low #IQ is to blame for the underclass) are frequently cited by #eugenics and white nationalist movements.

Murray is listed as a scholar for the American Enterprise Institute, which is sponsored by the Kochs. Murray is essentially a right-leaning libertarian who argues that innate individual differences help explain economic inequality.

This new targeting of school boards is being spearheaded by the American City and County Exchange (ACCE), a project of the American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC) - a pay-to-play group where corporate lobbyists and special interest groups vote as equals on "model bills" with state legislators behind closed doors.

@davidsirota The New York Times is the same newspaper that sold the #IraqWar to the #American people citing #DickCheney aluminum tube lies as an unnamed administration source.
At the same time, it was suppressing the story about the #GeorgeWBush treasonous warrantless mass domestic spying scandal.
#NewYorkTimes is slime like #GOP #Republicans #Democrats #Congress #AEI #AmericanEnterpriseInstitute
