The Large Hadron Collider is the most advanced and complex machine ever built by humanity, and it’s allowed us to study the inner workings of the universe in unprecedented ways. However, there’s only so much you can do with a 27-kilometer particle collider. So, CERN has approved plans to build a much larger collider called the Future Circular Collider (FCC) with a 100-kilometer (62-mile) circumference. Physicists have made many predictions about the nature of the universe and the existence of exotic particles. The best way we know to expose these particles to test theories is to smash protons together at high speeds and see what comes out.
The ARM microprocessor architecture used to be an exclusively low-power affair, but today there are full-fledged computers running on ARM chips. In fact, Apple is going to move its laptops to ARM in the coming years. Japanese technology firms Fujitsu and Riken have shown what ARM can really do with their new Fugaku . With more than 150,000 CPUs, Fugaku has now . Riken and Fujitsu started developing the system in 2014, working closely with ARM to design the A64FX processor. Each of these ships has 48 CPU cores based on the ARM architecture version 8.2A, making it the first such chip in the world.
Earth has been in the crosshairs of dangerously large asteroids in the past, and it will be again. The impact of such objects has historically led to mass extinctions, but there’s a chance humanity could work to stop such an event. Various methods of deflecting Potentially Hazardous Asteroids (PHAs) have been suggested, but an international team of researchers has a deceptively simple suggestion: . Astronomers around the world scan the skies in search of dangerous space rocks on a collision course. Luckily, we haven’t found any on course for an impact, but that could change at any time. The key to all the proposed methods of deflecting asteroids is having enough time to implement a plan.
There isn’t a new story every week about an interesting new application of artificial intelligence and machine learning happening out there somewhere. There are actually at least five of those stories. Maybe 10. Sometimes, even more. Like how UK officials are using AI to before they cause expensive damage to roads. Or how artificial intelligence is playing a key role in . Or even in the ultimate in mind-bending “Black Mirror”-type ideas, how AI is actually being used to help to . Scariness aside, the power of artificial intelligence and machine learning to revolutionize the planet is taking hold in virtually every industry imaginable.
The first iPhone debuted in 2007, and Apple has made numerous changes and improvements to its software since then. However, the iPhone’s home screen interface has scarcely changed in all that time, until now. In the newly announced iOS 14, Apple has to include some very Android-like features. The new software includes myriad small changes like EV charging information in Apple Maps, offline translation, and new Memoji. The interface changes are by far the most dramatic change, though. For the first time in the iPhone’s 13 years of existence, you’ll be able to have widgets on the home screen.
Thousands of end-users are reporting problems with Samsung Blu-ray players as of Monday. The problems began without warning on Friday and the glitch appears to have affected all of the players at the same time, strongly implying it was a universal problem. The vary widely depending on the player models. Boot loops are the most common problem, as shown in the video below. The player appears to become stuck, endlessly cycling between “Load” and “No Disc.” Other include devices shutting off a few seconds after powering on, players not responding to commands or button presses, and units making weird noises as if they are constantly attempting to read a Blu-ray disc.

Companies know they need a web presence. Even if you don’t intend to make sales or conduct actual business through your site, it’s still important to be accessible to the web audience, even if it’s just as tangible proof that your business is legitimate. However, even if you’ve got only the most modest of expectations, you still need an array of skills to get a website up and running, even through one of those simple drag-and-drop website builders. Sourcery has taken a different approach to business web development — and if you’re looking for maximum return on minimum effort, a lifetime subscription to one of their could be just the path for you and your enterprise.
Google’s browser is far and away the most popular way to browse the web, which is surprising when you consider its abysmal memory management. It’s not uncommon for Chrome to gobble up multiple gigabytes of RAM in Windows, which can make devices with limited memory hard to use. There may be hope on the horizon, though. A new feature in Windows 10 , and we know it works because Microsoft is already using it. Microsoft used to shy away from open source projects, but when the time came to replace the Edge browser, Chromium was the easy choice. The Chromium project is the basis for numerous browsers like Opera, Brave, and of course, Chrome.
