Meta may have one found one way to slash its massive data center bill: tents.

Apple in recent years has opened Apple Developer Centers in Cupertino, CA, Shanghai, Singapore, and Bengaluru to allow developers to meet, exchange ideas or get help from trained staffers. It is now clear a new developer center will open in Europe, specifically in the German capital of Berlin, later this year. “Europe is home to an extraordinary community of developers who build apps that connect people, encourage creativity, and drive innovation,” says Susan Prescott, Apple’s vice president of Worldwide Developer Relations, said in a statement. Developers will be able to receive support for their apps, regardless of whether they are built for iOS, iPadOS, macOS, tvOS, macOS, or watchOS. The announcement comes just a few days before the company’s big Worldwide Developer Conference (WWDC) gets under way.

The systems, powered by Cosmos 3, are designed to accelerate development of autonomous vehicles, robots and vision AI systems.

On Election Day, people living in Monterey Park, Calif., became the first in the nation to ban data centers by a public vote. Their decision can only be overturned by another ballot measure.

Privacy on Safari Apple has been building privacy protections into Safari for years. The browser protects you from malicious scripts that might attempt to access passwords or credit card information. Safari also tells you what data an extension wants to access and can restrict access to match your settings.
