Reddit co-founder steps down from board, calls for his successor to be Black

Reddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian resigned from the online forum’s board Friday — and has urged his seat to be filled by a Black candidate.

Ohanian, who is married to tennis champion Serena Williams, made the move to resign from the Reddit board amid the social unrest sweeping through the United States, spurred by the death of George Floyd who was killed by Minneapolis police officers.

“It is long overdue to do the right thing,” he said. “I’m doing this for me, my family, and my country.”

Ohanian, who announced his resignation on social media platforms Instagram and Twitter, also pledged $1 million to the Know Your Rights Camp, founded by former NFL player and civil rights activist Colin Kaepernick. The Reddit co-founder added that he will use the future gains of his Reddit stock to serve the Black community.

“I believe resignation can actually be an act of leadership from people in power right now. To everyone fighting to fix our broken nation: Do not stop,” said Ohanian.

Ohanian’s resignation comes after moderators of several popular subreddits either went private or banned new posts in support of the Black Lives Matter movement.

Former Reddit CEO Ellen Pao also recently called out current CEO Steve Huffman for keeping the controversial pro-Trump subreddit The_Donald online, albeit quarantined due to repeated violations against the online forum’s rules against hate speech.

Pao responded to an open letter from Huffman, where he said that Reddit does not “tolerate hate, racism, and violence, and while we have work to do to fight these on our platform, our values are clear.”

Reddit’s content policy to change

Shortly after Ohanian’s announcement, Huffman posted on Reddit that work has started with moderators to change the online forum’s policies “to explicitly address hate.”

The work will focus on three problems: racism against the Black community in parts of Reddit, the administrators’ unclear stand on racism, and the lack of “a real seat at the table” for moderators in helping shape the online’s forum’s policies.

“We are already working to fix these problems, and this is a promise for more urgency,” Huffman wrote. However, he also said that The_Donald should have been quarantined sooner, contrary to calls for its outright removal.

Apple’s streak of delays might continue with iOS 19 next year

Apple stamped its entry into the AI era this year with the release of Apple Intelligence. But 2024 also marked the year when Apple’s staggered release plan for feature updates was also slower than usual. 2025 might not be much different.

According to Bloomberg, Apple has pushed an unspecified number of features that were otherwise supposed to arrive with the iOS 19 update next year. Earlier this week, the outlet also reported that a planned Siri upgrade that would give it more conversational chops has been delayed until spring 2026.

Mercedes bets solar paint is part of EV-charging future
mercedes solar paint evs benz electric camper

It’s been said that Albert Einstein’s genius came from his ability to freely wonder and ask child-like questions way before he even tried applying science-based solutions.
It seems some within the R&D department at Mercedes-Benz might be similarly inspired. The German automaker is currently developing a special solar paint that, when applied on the surface of vehicles, can harness enough energy from the sun to power up EVs.
The energy generated by the paint’s solar cells can be used for driving or fed directly into a high-voltage battery.
“The photovoltaic system is permanently active and also generates energy when the vehicle is switched off,” Mercedes says. “In the future, this could be a highly effective solution for increased electric range and fewer charging stops.”
The layer of paste to be applied on EVs is significantly thinner than a human hair, yet its photovoltaic cells are packed full of energy. Covering the surface of a mid-size SUV with the paint could produce enough energy for up to 7,456 miles per year under ideal conditions, Mercedes says.
This does imply being in geographic locations with plenty of sun hours during the day.
But even with less-than-ideal sun hours, the energy yielded can make a significant difference to EV charging. Mercedes says the solar-paint charge could provide 100% of needed energy for an average daily drive of 32 miles in sun-drenched Los Angeles. In much less sunny conditions -- such as around Mercedes’ headquarters in Stuttgart, Germany -- it would still yield enough energy for 62% of the distance.
An added bonus for environmentally-conscious drivers: Unlike some solar panels, the solar paint contains no rare earth or silicon – only non-toxic, readily available raw materials. It’s also easy to recycle and considerably cheaper to produce than conventional solar modules, Mercedes says.
The likes of Aptera, Sono Motors, Lightyear, and Hyundai have also been researching how to best harness solar energy to power up EVs.
But that’s been mostly through solar panels yielding enough energy for small and light vehicles, such as Aptera’s three-wheel solar EV. Solar paint could bring solar charging for bigger vehicles, such as electric SUVs, Mercedes says.

Volkswagen’s affordable ID.2 EV remains on track

It’s no secret that Volkswagen has been facing a huge slump in sales in Europe and China, forcing it to close plants in Germany.

But unlike other European automakers who have stuck to producing high-end electric vehicles (EVs), the German automaker keeps on reaffirming its commitment to bringing affordable EVs to market, including in the U.S.
