Apple Intelligence and Siri AI have sucked most of the oxygen out of the room at Apple's Worldwide Developers Conference this year—understandable, maybe, given that the AI-powered Siri delays are all anyone has wanted to ask any Apple executive about for the last two years.

Apple Intelligence and Siri AI have sucked most of the oxygen out of the room at Apple's Worldwide Developers Conference this year—understandable, maybe, given that the AI-powered Siri delays are all anyone has wanted to ask any Apple executive about for the last two years. But Apple Intelligence is just one of the three big focus areas Apple outlined during its keynote this week. The second is new parental controls—overdue, but promising-looking, as the parent of a six-year-old with an iPad that I only begrudgingly connect to the Internet. And the third is "platform improvements," a catch-all for a wide range of fit-and-finish changes aimed at boosting responsiveness and addressing common user complaints. I have the first beta of macOS 27 Golden Gate running on an M1 MacBook Air—the oldest, slowest hardware Apple supports now that Intel compatibility is out the window. With some help from Apple's densely packed wall-of-features slide , here are a few things from the "platform improvements" column I like the most, plus one item I'd still like to see.

Guardian review finds group tied to Cleta Mitchell and Heather Honey funded misleading ads in swing states As the 2024 election approached, advertisements began popping up in key swing states suggesting local officials had discretion not to certify elections.

Guardian review finds group tied to Cleta Mitchell and Heather Honey funded misleading ads in swing states As the 2024 election approached, advertisements began popping up in key swing states suggesting local officials had discretion not to certify elections. The advertisements, reported at the time by ProPublica and Wisconsin Watch , were misleading. Certification is not optional, and officials are required to certify the vote once the proper process for any election challenges are complete and an official challenge is complete. The warnings, nonetheless, arrived at a moment when Donald Trump and allies seemed to be gearing up to contest the election results if he lost. Continue reading...

The musician opens up about her mental health, government corruption and why conservative backlash won’t stop her speaking her mind Mon Laferte has a sore throat. Halfway through our conversation, in a studio with no windows at the Sony offices above New York’s Madison Square Park, singer Norma Monserrat Bustamante Laferte meekly asks her manager for a latte without lactose, or coconut milk, if they have it. It’s the first truly hot day of spring. She’s in between arena dates across Latin America of her Femme Fatale tour. Tonight, she’ll skulk through Manhattan with rhinestone-studded eyelids and a Marilyn Monroe wig to film the Femme Fatale music video. Today, her hair is dyed red, cropped in spiky Marcel waves. She’s wearing a black slip dress and a pair of artful, lace-up tabis. With a career spanning over two decades, Laferte holds more Latin Grammys than any other Chilean singer and is the country’s biggest female streaming star, with over 18m monthly listeners. In October of 2025, Laferte released her tenth record, Femme Fatale, a jazz album that saw her step into a vampy alter ego; this month sees the continuation of the story with companion album Femme Fatale Vol 2. Like the archetype, her vision of pop stardom is biting by design. “The archetype is the dangerous one, no? Dangerous for being free, secure,” she tells me in Spanish. “Femme Fatale is a name the press have given me.” Continue reading...

Exclusive: Letters from inside the underground H Unit of Oklahoma state penitentiary allege beatings, vermin, degrading punishment and in many cases no access to a most basic necessity – natural light Oklahoma prison criticized for allegedly incarcerating people in squalid underground cells with no natural light “Down here in the tombs, there aren’t any windows,” writes Tremane Wood from inside his cell, in a modern-day American “dungeon” that few people have ever heard of. “It’s really like living in cave,” he writes in another letter. “It’s dark and damp. Sometimes this place drives people mad. The hardest part is the isolation.” Continue reading...
Traditionally, investors seeking maximum income have sold at-the-money covered calls. The problem is that this caps much of the portfolio’s upside potential. Another approach has emerged in recent years. Instead of selling monthly options, investors can sell options every trading day that expire the same day.

gesrey/iStock via Getty Images WisdomTree ( WT ) reported firm-wide assets under management (AUM) of $168.1B as of May end, a new record high, about 5.97% higher than last month. The asset manager generated $2.2B of net inflows in May, lifting year-to-date inflows to $9.3B, representing a 16% annualized organic growth rate, supported by broad-based demand across core ETF and multi-asset product lines. Growth was notably supported by continued strength in international strategies, with UCITS ETF momentum remaining a key driver, as AUM rose 44% YTD, underpinned by $3.9B of net inflows and a 77% annualized organic growth rate, reflecting sustained adoption in European markets. Commodity and currency strategies contributed $932M of monthly inflows, while international developed market equity products continued to be a major engine of growth, supported by strong YTD accumulation. Fixed income also posted positive flows of $394M in May, while cryptocurrency and alternative strategies saw modest inflows. Emerging market equities remained a drag on flows, recording $46M of inflows in May but net outflows of $272M YTD. Besides, WisdomTree’s May 1 completion of the Atlantic House acquisition added approximately $4.1B of high-fee AUM, contributing meaningfully to revenue mix expansion. The stock price dropped about 5.5% on Thursday pre-market trade. More on WisdomTree WisdomTree, Inc. 2026 Q1 - Results - Earnings Call Presentation WisdomTree, Inc.
