Great visualization.
Cool visualization of largest known breaches since 2004.
The A12X chip in the new iPad Pro is by far its most impressive feature. But the only thing I can think of is: Imagine is they start putting these in tiny MacBook laptops.
So who’s lying (or got it wrong?) Bloomberg or The rest of the world?
“Their work amounts to what may well be the most far-reaching global censorship operation in history. It is also the least accountable”
Facebook was never prepared for the de facto position of responsibility over speech and communications they find themselves in.
Everything this company does is shady. It had to implode at some point.
Cool demos of the state-of-the-art in computer graphics and animation.
"The SIGGRAPH Technical Papers program is the premier international forum for disseminating new scholarly work in computer graphics and interactive techniques. SIGGRAPH 2017 brings together thousands of computer graphics professionals, 30 July - 3 August 2017 in Los Angeles, California, USA. Learn more and register at http://s2017.siggraph.org/"
On Twitter as the platform for which white supremacists propaganda machine is based.
I know of several non-technical people with great "tech business ideas" say that they can just hire cheap developers in India to implement their business. I always try to explain what a terrible idea that is unless you have someone they trust and who can provide technical oversight to the project. This is an example of how things can go horribly wrong.
My prediction: Within 24 months, the vast majority of flagship phones will not have a headphone jack.
This seems like such a natural thing to do in any country. Except when these guys are caught it's not going to be pretty.
"Techies" criticize the closed App Store ecosystem that the iPhone pioneered, but they forget just how awful the alternative is for regular users. This article can serve as a reminder of what a cesspool Windows can be.
The concept video looks amazing... too bad it's completely fake and all done in after effects. I don't know why Microsoft likes to set such expectations, it seems dishonest. I am extremely skeptical that the real final product, whenever it arrives, will work even remotely close to that.
All human inventions, technology and science developments were meant to lead us to this: VR lightsabers.
This is funny but true. Anyone paying extra money in order to buy an inferior product (curved TVs) is a schmuck.
The devastating security bug, in comic strip form.
Net neutrality is finally here. I mean there, in Europe.
Very good, albeit simplistic article on Sony's newer cameras. They look great!
For OS nerds only.
Best. Hack. Ever.
The graphics are really cool.
Another cool toy I want to try.
Basic, obvious things. But I guess some people don't know all of these.
It's really cool, but I don't know why anyone would spend this much money on a machine that can run nothing but a browser.
Microsoft didn’t invent the PC but benefited from its invention. Microsoft didn’t invent BASIC, they didn’t invent the PC operating system, they didn’t invent word processor, spreadsheet, or presentation applications, they didn’t invent PC games, they didn’t invent the graphical user interface, they didn’t invent the notebook or the tablet, they didn’t invent the Internet, they didn’t invent the music player or the video game, but they benefited from all these things.
A daily briefing of technology news worth caring about, edited by Richard Dunlop-Walters
If you can't read tech news all day, this gives you a nice little summary for the day.
This camera can perfectly track a ping pong ball. Check out the video, it's cool.
Wow, that's exactly the same technique I use to win at Rock, Paper, Scissors every time. I should have patented it.
The story of ARM, the company that designs the chip inside your phone. Part 1.
Apple's CEO Steve Jobs on why Adobe's Flash is not allowed to run on iPhone, iPod, nor iPad. Nothing new here, but interesting to read directly from the source.
Nice write up about NI. I had my ten year anniversary lunch with them on Wednesday.
This is an all new technology for photography. If it works as advertised (a big if) and if the resolution is good enough, then this would be a complete revolution in photography.
So far I cannot find what resolution this maps to.
Funny blog with things that Siri says.
I want.
Remember how we engineers used to laugh at TV shows and movies when some law enforcement entity had a blurry photo in a computer, pressed a button to "de-blur" and then could see all the details? Well, it looks like it's coming to Adobe Photoshop soon!
I am strangely drawn to this product. I want it.
I read about one or two Android security problems per day.
Most people don't realize just how badly the US lags other countries in telecommunications.
I linked to GoPano before. This is a video taken with a very similar (or the same?) techonology. It's a 360 degree video of the riots in Vancouver. Awesome (the tech, not the riots).
This is amazing technology: this camera captures intensity, direction, and color of individual rays of light. This means you can focus after taking the photo or even display the photo in 3D. Check out the demo and the video.
This is the future of photography... if it ever makes it to market.
lots of things to look forward to.
Any gadget freak will spend a long time going over this wonderful collection of toys. Many of them bring great memories.
Current Internet usage, plus the top 10 Internet usage moments and what simultaneous events were occurring at the time. #1: World Cup 2010, end of the first round.
GPS is a complex technology by itself, but modern cellphones do more than just use plain GPS. This article explains it in very simple terms.
Main features for the upcoming Mac OS X. some cool stuff in in there.
New high speed interconnect standard from Apple and Intel.
A list 100+ of tablets launched last month at CES 2011. I bet that in CES 2010 the number was nowhere near to this. Everybody wants to make an iPad.
Richard Stallman says that cloud computing is evil because all your data is held on to by a third party. Also that it will work because a sucker is born every minute. I don't think people will use it (only) because they are suckers. They will use it because it's so convenient, and people are willing to give up control and/or money in exchange for convenience.
A Barbie I would have actually played with as a kid.
And no: this is not a dirty video.
They've been through a lot...
