Android XR head Shahram Izadi just gave a TED talk showing off prototype smart glasses with a mini display and Project Moohan. In it, Izadi showed the prototype smart glasses performing live translation and scanning a book.

This is a wild story from Charlotte Palermino, a small business owner, about what went wrong when she tried to manufacture her skin care brand’s packaging in the US. It illustrates how global our economy is — and why the simple tagline of tariffs reviving US manufacturing isn’t as simple as it might seem. (Full disclosure: I’ve bought Palermino’s Dieux products before and they’re great.)
