Journalists need more than a timestamp. Veridenz creates a cryptographically signed witness when you take a photo and publishes proof to #Nostr. Later, you can verify the file hasn’t changed. Your photo stays private. The proof doesn’t.

Lenovo just reported its strongest quarter ever, with revenue hitting a record $26.9 billion.

AI-related revenue surged 60 percent to $9.3 billion, while Lenovo’s infrastructure business nearly doubled. But there is a catch: despite $1.075 billion in adjusted net income, Lenovo reported a $609 million net loss attributable to shareholders.

The numbers are worth a closer look.

Hi @jack

I am an independent technology journalist and developer. I recently launched Veridenz, an iPhone app that cryptographically verifies photos and publishes proof to Nostr without uploading the image. I would genuinely value your thoughts on the idea.

OpenAI is fighting back against Apple with something rarely seen in a corporate legal battle: actual private text messages and emails.

The evidence appears to expose mistakes in Apple’s account, including a lawyer emailing the wrong person after confusing two Asian last names. OpenAI’s decision to emphasize that detail also feels like a subtle accusation of cultural ignorance.

Publishing private conversations this openly is uncomfortable, but it makes Apple’s lawsuit look far messier than the company probably intended.
