If youâre an iPhone user, check your storage now by selecting Settings, then General, and then iPhone Storage. Youâll probably see a lot of recognizable categories eating up your storage â apps, photos, and so on. But there is one, often rather large category, that may raise concerns: âOtherâ. Itâs shaded light grey and often represents a significant proportion of the overall storage available. There is one, often rather large... Read more âș

Everybodyâs boss, the Google algorithm, classifies AI-generated content as spam. John Mueller, Googleâs SEO authority, laid the issue to rest while speaking at a recent âGoogle Search Central SEO office-hours hangout.â Per a report from Search Engine Journalâs Matt Southern, Mueller says GPT-3 and other content generators are not considered...

Teslaâs âCyber Rodeoâ party, a grand opening event for the companyâs new gigafactory in Texas, had a flamboyance and excessiveness to match Elon Muskâs personality. Fireworks were shot and thousands of drones were deployed in the sky to form a map of the state of Texas, the Cybertruck, and a Shiba Inu dog. Elon gloriously entered the stage wearing a stupid cowboy hat and riding a first-generation Roadster â mind... Read more âș

Scientists have long understood that the human brain changes in size as we age, but until now thereâs never been a method by which we can chart its growth. An international team of researchers led by Cambridge Universityâs Richard Bethlehem recently published the worldâs first growth chart for brains. Up front: How are you supposed to tell if your brain is growing properly? Itâs an important question. And weâve had... Read more âș

Thereâs a lot of attention right now on the idea of making public transport free. In the first instance, you might think itâs a no-brainer. You can ride public trains, trams, buses, and ferries at no charge. That sounds too good to be true, but theyâre a reality in many parts of the world. Over 100 cities have some form of free public transport, but there are many different models... Read more âș

As desirable vacation destinations go, war-torn Ukraine must surely rate low. But in the first month of Russiaâs invasion, Airbnb bookings in Ukraine boomed, as people around the world used the accommodation platform to channel more than US$15 million in donations to the country. As with other forms of direct donation, using Airbnb to channel aid to Ukraine has been problematic. The company was relatively quick to waive the 20%... Read more âș

I love Star Trek. Or more precisely, I really love the 80s, 90s and 00s Trek. Nothing is more soothing to me than the low hum of the Enterprise D, with Data and Geordi La Forge discussing the alignment of dilithium crystals in their coveted warp core. While most of Star Trekâs âtechnobabbleâ is intricately thought out nonsense, itâs no secret that early sci-fi has had a huge influence on... Read more âș

EV owners got more than they bargained for when they tried to juice up their cars this week on the Isle of Wight, UK. Three charging points â which were supposed to display the website of the councilâs charging network â were hacked to show porn. The issue was brought up by the affected drivers to local paper Country Press, which then reached out to the council. A spokesperson rushed... Read more âș

First of all, I found it quite fitting that the conference took place in Paris.

If you have two similar-looking USB-C to C cables, chances are that you might not be able to tell anything about their capabilities by just looking at them. The USB-C standard can handle a lot of things: charging, data transfer, and audio and video streaming. But not all USB-C cables are made alike. When I bought my M1-powered MacBook Air, I was excited about carrying only one charger to juice... Read more âș

Have you heard the one about the algorithm that tells hilarious jokes? Me neither â but I have seen AI gags bomb like US presidents. Stand-up robots, improvised joke generators, Q&A pun systems, and android bartenders have all failed to make me laugh. âYou can get a rum and coke anywhere,â Brian Connors, a hospitality professor, told the Miami Herald, âbut how often are you going to get it from...

Last May, Tesla stuck the middle finger to the entire auto industry, deeming the use of multiple sensors for autonomous driving functionalities⊠unnecessary. It ditched radars and initiated a camera-only approach, dubbed âTesla Vision.â And while weâre used to Elonâs unorthodox methods, Toyotaâs decision to follow suit is definitely surprising. The car makerâs self-driving subsidiary Woven Planet will be the second company to adopt a vision-based strategy in pursuit of... Read more âș

Throughout the latter half of 2021, as it became clear that Russia was massing a large portion of its conventional combat power on the eastern borders of Ukraine, analysts offered contrasting predictions about the role cyberspace would play in an armed conflict. These predictions capture an ongoing debate about whether conflict in cyberspace is destined to supplant conventional conflict or exacerbate it. As the war has evolved, itâs clear that...

Conventional lithium-ion batteries may have sown the seeds for our transition to electric mobility, but they have certain shortcomings. Theyâre flammable, their range is still limited, and theyâre not as quick to charge as weâd like them to be. Making EVs more competitive with gas-guzzlers will require remedies for these issues, and to achieve this we need a breakthrough in battery technology. Thatâs where lithium-metal batteries come in. How do... Read more âș

In a world where checking your phone 96 times a day is the norm for some, itâs hard to imagine a life without the internet. With the mainstreaming of fiber broadband and researchers developing 6G technology, sometimes the privilege of easy internet accessibility blinds us to the reality that 37% of the global population (2.9 billion people) still doesnât have access to the internet.
