TLDR: This award-winning app can help you complete any PDF project, from editing to filling out forms to even creating PDFs of your own. PDFs pulled away as the primary web document format of the digital age in the early 90s because they offered high quality versions of those documents in a comparatively small file size. But while they looked great and didnât take up much space, the downside of... Read more âș

On Monday, I received the draft of a new marketing campaign for a company I follow. It looked professional, but not in a good way. It was easy to imagine what kind of conversation preceded this campaign. Someone probably said, âI want it to look professional,â and so the marketers went with that. The campaign reflected a mature and professional organization. But it also looked like it could fit any... Read more âș

Facebook has rebranded itself to Meta, and is fully committed to building a metaverse. To achieve its grand vision, itâll need to launch multiple groundbreaking devices, controllers, and supporting hardware. The company has already shown off some concepts and research projects in this area, and some of them are fascinating. Hereâs a list of what weâve seen so far: Haptic gloves In its series of prototype devices, gloves with haptic... Read more âș

Another day, another Snapchat feature lands up on Instagram. The Meta-owned app has now implemented a ârage shakeâ feature that lets you shake your phone to report a bug. Last night, Instagramâs chief, Adam Mosseri, announced this feature alongside another one that will let you delete a specific photo from a carousel. Pretty neat. You can watch the feature in action in the video below from the 55-second mark. You... Read more âș

Iâm calling it. 2021 was the year of the electric vehicle. I predict, 2022 is the year of circular design. We recently saw batteries makers Northvolt produce its first lithium-ion battery cell featuring a nickel-manganese-cobalt (NMC) cathode produced with metals recovered through battery waste recycling. This is a big deal. While this is a huge leap in battery innovation, weâre not entirely there yet. The company aims to produce cells... Read more âș

Hereâs a sentence I never thought Iâd write, let alone in 2021: Apple today announced Self Service Repair, a program that will allow everyday customers to buy genuine Apple repair parts and tools to fix their own broken devices, starting with the iPhone 12 and 13. In related news, the domestic pig, Sus domesticus, has recently been spotted flying south for the winter. Seriously though, my mouth was agape as... Read more âș

A renowned theoretical computer science expert recently released an astonishing physics pre-print paper that tosses fuel on the fiery debate over⊠whether humans could use wormholes to traverse the universe or not. Donât worry, Iâll explain what this has to do with self-aware robots in due course. Fun with physics First, however, letâs lay the foundation for our speculation with a quick glance at this all-new wormhole theory. The pre-print... Read more âș

Think back to when you were a kid, and people asked what job you wanted to do when you grew up. Did you say a truck driver? Well, now, once you turn 18, you can become one. But why would you want to? The Developing Responsible Individuals for a Vibrant Economy (DRIVE-Safe) is changing to allow 18-year-olds to drive trucks across states. While 48 out of 50 US states currently... Read more âș

Contrary to what many skeptics preach, thereâs not enough data yet to confirm that EVs are more likely to catch fire than internal combustion engine cars. But thereâs un irrefutable fact: when electric vehicles do catch fire, they burn fiercely and require a new skillset for emergency respondents to fight the flames. Austrian firefighting equipment manufacturer Rosenbauer has developed a special EV fire extinguisher, specifically designed to tackle the complexities... Read more âș

TLDR: The Lamp Depot Minimalist LED Corner Floor Lamp casts up to 16 million colors and over 300 different lighting patterns to remake a room strictly through lighting. For their hundreds of different possible styles and configurations, lamps donât always get loads of attention as central room decor. But itâs tough not to earn some attention when youâre not even sure that a lamp IS a lamp. Thatâs part of... Read more âș

Twitter may be a cesspit, but sometimes itâs worth trudging through toxic waste in search of buried treasure. If you find a pithy wisecrack or a memorable meme, dysentery doesnât feel so awful. Unless, of course, Twitterâs auto-refresh vaporizes the tweet before youâve pulled it out of the pigshit. After tormenting users with this issue for years, the bird app has finally shown some mercy. Twitter announced on Tuesday that... Read more âș

Light is fast. In fact, it is the fastest thing that exists, and a law of the universe is that nothing can move faster than light. Light travels at 186,000 miles per second (300,000 kilometers per second) and can go from the Earth to the Moon in just over a second. Light can streak from Los Angeles to New York in less than the blink of an eye. While 1%... Read more âș

I love reading books and thatâs why I have a membership card for my cityâs public library. Do I visit it often? No, I donât. Iâm normally too busy or lazy to leave the house just for that. For the same reasons, I have a stash of books that I did manage to borrow from the library, which I return long after the due date and end up paying some... Read more âș

I donât want this to be my Jerry Maguire moment but to be honest, Iâm sick of hearing the words âdigital transformation.â What does it even mean anymore? Itâs such a hyped-up term, overused by a market saturated with evangelists spouting conceptual nonsense, amplifying its enigma-like existence (and profiting handsomely from it). It normally starts with the C-Suite coming back from a strategy week, a Silicon Valley trip, or a... Read more âș

Whenâs the last time you used Windows Media Player? What about Microsoftâs Groove Music app? If youâre anything like me, it was probably right after getting a new computer or completing a fresh install, when you tried to play some music or videos only to remember you havenât installed foobar2000 or VLC yet. Needless to say, the antiquated Windows Media Player looks completely outdated with Windows 11âs modern UI, and... Read more âș

I donât usually pass along Twitter gossip like itâs news, but it isnât everyday the worldâs most famous whistle-blower gets into a tissy with the underground rulers of all things search. Let me rewind: Edward Snowden, everybodyâs favorite fugitive-turned-technology-critic, shot out a seemingly off-the-cuff post on Twitter today professing his disdain for the current state of internet search: Is it just me, or have search results become absolute garbage for...

When Facebook announced it was changing its name to âMeta,â it was immediately clear the company was doing more than just pivoting â it was evolving. In the weeks since, the metaverse has become the hottest topic in tech. The last time I saw a planet-scale conversation about technology of this magnitude was when blockchain and cryptocurrency entered the mainstream periphery around the middle of 2017. Unfortunately, it seems like... Read more âș

Christmas shopping is guaranteed to unleash my inner Grinch. The urgency, the icy temperatures, the emptying shelves, and the crowds â sweet Santa, the crowds! They turn my Yuletide glee into deep holiday blues. This year, however, Google Maps is delivering some festive help.
