AT&T's budget-friendly phone for kids was designed with parental controls in mind

It might be near impossible to be a kid these days without a smartphone, but AT&T wants to offer parents a decent compromise. The wireless carrier launched its AmiGO Jr. Phone, which combines Samsung hardware and AT&T's app, to offer kids a smartphone that has parental controls baked right in.

Как отличить двойную планету от планеты с большим спутником

Айзек Азимов известен как классик научной фантастики, но не так знамениты его работы по популяризации науки. Некоторые его научно-популярные книги переводились на русский язык, например, «Путеводитель по науке», близкий по жанру к детской энциклопедии и выходивший в издательстве «Центрполиграф» в 2004 году. Но сравнительно малоизвестной осталась другая его книга «Двойная планета», написанная в 1960 году и рассматривающая Землю и Луну как парную планету, а не просто планету и спутник. Читать...

Their AI model, MangroveGS, can predict this risk with about 80% accuracy and even works across multiple cancer types. This could transform how doctors decide who needs aggressive treatment and who doesn’t. Read more
