Hello,

I built an iOS app (got approved by Apple today) using Swift. The app uses native iOS Swift libraries. What is the best approach to port my app to Android?

Google is experimenting with a new feature that lets you share videos in YouTube app on iOS and Android.

A segment of a rail line linking Poland's capital, Warsaw, to the border with Ukraine was blown up over the weekend. Prime Minister Donald Tusk called it an "unprecedented act of sabotage".

Evidence suggests the blast over the weekend was "initiated by the Russian secret services", Jacek Dobrzyński, the spokesman for Poland's security services minister, said after a meeting of the National Security Committee.

The Polish prime minister has said the two people responsible are Ukrainian, that they collaborated with Russian intelligence, have left Poland and are now in Belarus.

In what Prime Minister Donald Tusk called an "unprecedented act of sabotage", a segment of a rail line linking Poland's capital, Warsaw, to the border with Ukraine was blown up over the weekend.

Countries from Africa, Asia, Latin America, Pacific and Europe plead for transition to be central outcome of talks

More than 80 countries have joined a call for a roadmap to phasing out fossil fuels, in a dramatic intervention into stuck negotiations at the UN Cop30 climate summit.

Countries from Africa, Asia, Latin America and the Pacific joined with EU member states and the UK to make an impassioned plea for the “transition away from fossil fuels” to be a central outcome of the talks, despite stiff opposition from petrostates and some other major economies.

Poland will “never agree” to any EU legislation that would require instant messaging services such as Messenger, WhatsApp or Signal to monitor users for evidence of child abuse, the country’s digital affairs minister said.

Poland will “never agree” to any EU legislation that would require instant messaging services such as Messenger, WhatsApp or Signal to monitor users for evidence of child abuse, the country’s digital affairs minister said.

Under a revised version of the EU Child Sexual Abuse Material (CSAM) regulation – approved for further work by an EU Council working group last week – instant messaging providers could voluntarily agree to scan users’ communications for child sexual abuse content.

This marks a watering down of an initial proposal – first presented in 2022 – which would have made message scanning mandatory for all platforms, including those offering end-to-end encryption designed to prevent unauthorized access to private communications.

The legislation has raised concerns over potential violations of privacy rights and has been repeatedly revised, so far failing to secure majority support among EU member states.

Commenting on the revised proposal, Poland’s Digital Affairs Minister Krzysztof Gawkowski, told state news agency PAP on Monday that his country would “never agree to any mandatory scanning", citing concerns over the privacy of communications.

“We are treating the search for a compromise on child protection as a priority and with great consideration,” he said.

“We want legislation that enables us to effectively combat paedophilia while at the same time ensuring the security of all citizens,” he added.

Gawkowski said the latest proposal – put forward by Denmark, which took over the rotating EU Council presidency from Poland in July – aligns with the approach Warsaw advocated during its own presidency of the Council in the first half of 2025.

He also said his team will “monitor the issue” as talks progress, adding that the Polish government’s position would depend on the final draft regulation.

I mean like: How long does it take before you brain goes: oh shit, I exist... I remember, I am a living thing, human, my name is [■■■ ■■■] and my current location is [■■■] and oh shit I'm late for [work/school/event] (or if its weekend, its like: oh... nothing's happening, life is boring)

Like you know what I'm saying, like the Terminator HUD thing after it reboots and it takes a few seconds before it can identify a target and then recognize its mission... that type of thing.

Or do you wake up and within 1 nanosecond realize the state of your existence?

Lloyds Banking Group analysed data from the personal bank accounts of more than 30,000 employees to assess their financial resilience as part of pay negotiations.

The bank’s customer insights team compared the spending habits, saving rates and salary increases of its lowest-paid employees to those of customers and presented them in salary talks with UK trade unions, two people familiar with the matter said.
