So, slap your eyeballs on our delightful moving pictures above to get all the information you need about what separates the iPhone 11 Pro from the iPhone 11 Pro Max. But… let’s say you don’t really want to watch a video? Well, because we’re nice, we’ve also included some words about the differences between the two devices below. Ugh, it’s hard being this good. The screen size This is the most obvious one....
Before we get on to the images, which were shared on Reddit after originally being uploaded to the Chinese ministry of transport regulatory site, let’s remind ourselves of the proposed specs of the SUV. Based on information we have so far, the ID.6 will be about 4.9 meters long, 1.8 meters wide, and 1.8 meters tall. It’s also pegged to have seven seats. It’s going to be based on the VW Group’s MEB platform, that’s also underpinning the other ID electric vehicles....
Given everything that’s happening in the world today, it seems like you and your TV are only likely to get better acquainted in the coming months. Just you, your couch and a whole heaping pile of movies, TV shows and other digital content stacked up like cordwood, all ready for the mother of all binge sessions. We get it. Outside is scary right now. To get you through, we want to help....
Did you see that recent amazing drone footage flying over an active volcano in Iceland? Or maybe that gorgeous aerial shot expertly winding through the Dallas Cowboys’ training facility they used this season on Hard Knocks? It turns out drone photography isn’t just a novelty anymore. It’s truly become art. In fact, bodies are even giving out awards now for brilliant images captured where no human eye could ever go before....
When COVID-19 hit last year, Juuve CEO Niki Sie feared it would be the end of his three-year-old company. The car-sharing platform was just starting to gain some traction. Sie was expanding the selection of cars, when suddenly the whole country was requested to stay home as much as possible. “Many of our users book cars for business reasons — they’re needed for a trip to the office or to a meeting,” says Sie....
However, minutes later, everything turned grim, and the space agency’s director, K Sivan, went to Prime Minister Narendra Modi to deliver the bad news: ISRO had lost contact with the Vikram lander when it was just 2.1 km away from the lunar surface. — ISRO (@isro) September 6, 2019 There was no clarity as to if the lander had crashed; ISRO said at the time the data was being analyzed....
Up front: Organoids are synthetic biological constructs that mimic human organs to various degrees. Scientists grow organoids by programming stem cell clusters. Essentially, they feed the clusters the necessary components to spark their growth, and then they employ a series of limiters to guide them into becoming the kind of organoid we want. The ultimate hope is that we’ll be able to grow organ analogs — synthetic liver or brain organoids, for example — that we can use to advance our scientific and medical knowledge....
Einstein called entanglement “spooky action at a distance,” a name that has stuck and become increasingly popular. Beyond just building better quantum computers, understanding and harnessing entanglement is also useful in other ways. For example, it can be used to make more accurate measurements of gravitational waves, and to better understand the properties of exotic materials. It also subtly shows up in other places: I have been studying how atoms bumping into each other become entangled, to understand how this affects the accuracy of atomic clocks....
Building software is what we — developers — are paid for. Unfortunately, more often than not we’re also paid to break stuff, then we get an “amazing” opportunity to fix what we’ve broken. I don’t think we talk enough about those stories. You know how your Instagram feed is full of absolute highlights? Well, it’s the same when it comes to developer horror stories. I’ve heard some which would make your skin crawl....
The IPCC released the first part of its much anticipated Sixth Assessment Report on Aug. 9, 2021. In it, 234 scientists from around the globe summarized the current climate research on how the Earth is changing as temperatures rise and what those changes will mean for the future. We asked climate scientist Robert Kopp, a lead author of the chapter on Earth’s oceans, ice, and sea level rise, about the profound changes underway....
The app only supports one-to-one calls for now, but the company plans to add group calls in the future. All the calls are end-to-end encrypted to keep your secrets safe from devious eavesdroppers. The new feature will help the platform capitalize on the explosive growth in video calls since the COVID-19 outbreak. Downloads of video conferencing apps such as Zoom hit record highs during the pandemic, and WhatsApp got its own big bump in usage....
The above quote, taken from a memo obtained by Axios and sent by Vistakis summarizes the former director’s worries. The rest of the letter paints the picture of a Trump administration hellbent on purging the Obama-appointed security specialists tasked with defending White House computers in the wake of a 2014 breach. The Office of the Chief Information Security Officer (OCISO), according to Vistakis, has been targeted by White House leadership for removal....
So today I am excited to share the news that solar-power transport company Sono Motors is deploying its tech on a bus for the first time — in partnership with the Münchner Verkehrsgesellschaft (Munich Transport Company, MVG). You probably know Sono Motors from its work building Sion, the solar electric car. The Sono solar technology replaces traditional paint with proprietary integrated solar panels that can form for various applications. Unlike vehicles with rooftop solar panels alone, it comes with 456 solar half-cells on the hood, fenders, sides, roof, and rear....
Facebook fiercely denies being a media company despite that fact that around four-in-ten U.S. adults (43%) get their daily news from Facebook. There is an argument that there has never been a more powerful media company than Zuckerberg’s social media behemoth. Another misconception in tech is that the Microsoft Bing search engine is a complete failure. The search engine is currently generating around $7.5 billion from its web search advertising....
But there were also many workplace initiatives throughout the pandemic that exemplified leadership, boosted company results, improved workplace culture, or set an industry example. What are the biggest wins for company leaders and what are the key lessons for startups? Alisa Cohn is an executive coach for startups and companies, including Venmo, DraftKings, and Etsy, and the author of From Start-up to Grown-Up. I interviewed her last month to learn how stand-out CEOs excelled during the pandemic, and the lessons for founders everywhere....
Now, Croatia, Romania, and Bulgaria — the youngest EU members — are on the right track to becoming part of Schengen. And this is a good thing for startups and businesses in the bloc. Last week, MPEs of the European Parliament approved the introduction of Croatia, urging the Council to move forward with the process and a final decision, having itself confirmed in December 2021 that the country has fulfilled all the necessary conditions for the full application of Schengen rules....
Making EVs more competitive with gas-guzzlers will require remedies for these issues, and to achieve this we need a breakthrough in battery technology. That’s where lithium-metal batteries come in. How do lithium-metal batteries differ from lithium-ion ones? Both battery types use lithium to produce electrical energy and have a similar overall structure. Simply put, they have an anode (the battery’s negative electrode), a cathode (the battery’s positive electrode), and an electrolyte, which helps transfer lithium ions between the electrodes....
Some physicists believe that we’d find quantum foam – an infinite expanse of subatomic spacetime bubbles – if we could dial our cosmic microscopes in close enough. From a dozen or so feet up in the air, a trail of marching ants looks like a crooked black line. Get a little closer and you might notice that the “line” is in constant motion. Zoom in a bit more and you can see the individual ants marching along....
The mayor of the region is quoted in the article as saying there has been “scientific interest” – presumably from geneticists – in exploring what has led to this unusual sequence. He also discusses some glaringly unscientific advice the town has been given on how to conceive boys, ranging from changing mothers’ diets to “keeping an ax(e) under your marital bed”. But the most prosaic suggestion mentioned in the article is also by far the most likely – that it’s just a statistical coincidence....
Working in cybersecurity means you’re constantly playing a game of catch-up. Every day you learn something new, but your work is also never finished. Whether you are a security researcher developing threat intelligence to power IDS / IPS systems or someone trying to plug holes in an area like application security, you will constantly be forced to find new solutions for unknown problems. To Dutch security engineer Ferry (he prefers us not to share his last name), it’s this ever-evolving part of infosec that’s kept him in the field for over a decade....
