Utrecht, a small city in the Netherlands, wants to be the first region in the world with a bidirectional ecosystem. How? By using vehicle-to-grid charging stations. V2G technology is an efficient and cheap way to store and use renewable energy. The idea is simple: the transfer of electricity from cars to the grid. That way, the high-capacity storage of EV batteries doesn’t go to waste, while they’re not in use,... Read more ›

You know when a company sells off a beloved business and stuff goes really well afterwards? Yeah, me neither. So please join me in pouring one out for Sennheiser. The unthinkable has happened: audio brand Sennheiser has sold off its consumer products. That means beloved bits of kit like the Momentum True Wireless 2, the HD 820, and the Momentum 3 will no longer be made in-house by the acclaimed... Read more ›

Freakonomics recently applied their formula of Pop Economics to put a challenge to the efficacy of advertising: “Does Advertising Actually Work?” where the hosts lay out a compelling narrative to suggest that advertising may have little uplift… but it’s just not that simple. “Guess what? Advertising doesn’t work!” makes a great narrative hook for a podcast, but it’s not helpful if what you’re trying to do is measure advertising effectiveness.... Read more ›

Electric cars don’t snarl, parp, and pop like high-powered combustion engines, but that doesn’t mean they can’t sound cool. Case in point, the BMW i4 and its IconicSounds designed by none other than Hans Zimmer, or as I’m going to call him from now on: Hans Bimmer. Credit: BMW GroupThe sound of the new BMW i vehicles was developed by a collaboration between composer and curator Hans Zimmer and Renzo... Read more ›

We and our colleagues have developed a way to store data using pegs and pegboards made out of DNA and retrieving the data with a microscope – a molecular version of the Lite-Brite toy. Our prototype stores information in patterns using DNA strands spaced about 10 nanometers apart. Ten nanometers is more than a thousand times smaller than the diameter of a human hair and about 100 times smaller than... Read more ›

Is this the beginning of the end for the CHAdeMO electric vehicle charging standard? Its days certainly look numbered, in France at least. Earlier this month, the French government amended a 2017 regulation, ending the requirement that all new DC fast-chargers must offer a CHAdeMO connector. Instead, all new chargers will have to offer the significantly more widely used CCS connector for fast DC charging or Type 2 connector for... Read more ›

You can bring Google Assistant up by saying “OK Google” or “Hey Google” wake words. But if you’re in a noisy environment, that might not work well. To solve that, the firm is working on a new way to invoke the AI Assistant by long-pressing the power button. Sleuths at XDA Developers uncovered this mystery in the latest version of the Google Android app (12.18.6.29). The new app has lines... Read more ›

We like to make fun of Facebook for copying features off of other platforms, but this time around it’s probably a good idea: Facebook is testing a feature that will remind users they should read an article before sharing it — just like Twitter. In fact, the company shared the news on Twitter, perhaps as a subtle acknowledgement of this fact. Starting today, we’re testing a way to promote more... Read more ›

There’s no proof you’re going to die. Don’t take that the wrong way; there’s a lot of evidence. But proof is for math, and death is only certain in retrospect. That’s why any research that pushes the boundaries of what we can observe, test, and replicate when it comes to the wacky world of quantum mechanics is exciting. Spooky action at a distance could be our ticket to immortality. An... Read more ›

A pair of military experts recently penned an article with a simple warning to the Pentagon: winter is coming. In this case, said winter is an artificial intelligence winter, and said AI winter is an artificial AI winter. To put it another way: the Pentagon’s shooting itself in the foot while everyone else is aiming down-range. [Read: Judge says Amazon suit alleging Trump interfered in Project JEDI can go ahead]...

With so many more people working from home during the pandemic, employers have stepped up the extent to which they are monitoring them online. Not so many years ago, employees were having to adjust to having their work emails monitored; but that seems almost quaint compared to the digital surveillance we are seeing today. Employers can use specialist software to track workers’ keystrokes, mouse movements, and the websites they visit.... Read more ›
