Why you should buy the TP-Link Deco XE375 Pro

The idea behind a mesh Wi-Fi network is to cast a wider connectivity net throughout your home or business. In the case of the Deco XE375 Pro, you’ll connect one of the three network modules to your existing modem or router. This jumpstarts the mesh signal that gets beamed to the other two XE375 nodes on your property. The XE375 Pro is compatible with Wi-Fi 6E-certified devices but is also backward-compatible with older Wi-Fi standards.

Designed to cover up to 7,200 square feet, the XE375 system supports 2.5Gbps Ethernet upstream and one-gigabit speeds on the other two ports. Whether you need to connect a handful of devices wirelessly or want to hardwire your PS5 and other demanding peripherals, the XE375 is built to tackle up to 5,400Mbps.

TP-Link also made sure to make onboarding and overall setup as simple as can be. Once you’re up and running, it’s easy to customize user settings and share Wi-Fi info with friends and family. And thanks to AI-driven mesh controls, your TP-Link system will constantly be optimizing its performance to match your networking needs best.

It’s hard to say how long this markdown is going to last, so if you’ve been waiting on one or several router deals to save the day, that day is today! Save $100 when you purchase the TP-Link Deco XE375 Pro 3-Pack at Best Buy, and be sure to take a look at some of the other Best Buy deals we’ve been coming across.

Look, the MacBook Neo is a fine machine for building apps. And yes, I am utterly surprised
I am talking about apps with a generous dose of AI wizardry happening in the background.
MacBook Neo in yellow.

In a span of just one week, I have built a full-fledged Android app for my Galaxy Z Fold 8 foldable phone, three Mac apps, and an iPhone app. And here's the fun part. The entire journey of creating these apps actually started on a phone, jumped to my MacBook Neo, compiled just fine, and ran flawlessly, without making me want to tear my hair off. The latest example? 

It built my calendar-clipboard hybrid app in Terminal within 20 seconds, and an on-device transcription app with a retro look in roughly 15 seconds. I used to think building desktop software would have me burning the midnight oil. The MacBook Neo did it in less time than I can pour myself a can of soda and take the first sip.

AI could be doing to our tolerance for hard work what social media did to our patience
Even brief AI use may make unaided work feel more frustrating once the help disappears.
ChatGPT on iPhone

It is no secret that social media, and especially the rise of short-form content, has played a major role in the declining patience many of us have for anything that takes too long to get to the point. A few seconds without something interesting happening is enough to make us swipe away and look for the next thing. AI appears to be doing something similar to the way we approach work.

A new peer-reviewed study found that people who used AI for around 10 to 15 minutes were more likely to struggle and give up once the AI was taken away. The researchers ran three randomized experiments with 1,222 participants who were given math and reading-comprehension tasks. AI helped them perform better at first, but their performance tanked once they had to solve the problems on their own.

Microsoft wants Copilot Notebooks to handle the work that comes after an AI answer
Built-in Office editing gives users somewhere to revise what Copilot produces

Microsoft is bringing Office editing into Copilot Notebooks through its Frontier preview. Users can work on Word, Excel and PowerPoint files alongside their project references, making changes themselves or asking Copilot to handle them.

Generating a report or presentation with AI still leaves someone responsible for getting it ready to share. The October update puts editing tools where that work begins, though having a document neatly formatted doesn’t make its contents correct.
