We’ve been covering AMD’s Ryzen and Navi announcements at E3 throughout the week, with one more aspect of the situation left to discuss. While we’ve discussed Navi and its RDNA architecture, we haven’t talked about any of the software improvements AMD intends to offer with its next GPUs. Some of these gains will also be available to GCN cards as well. Let’s talk about some features and improvements. First up, there are the general quality-of-life gains baked into AMD’s Radeon Software. With Navi, the system will automatically drop your TV into its low-latency game mode if the display supports one.
NASA has been talking about going back to the for a long time, but plans have been accelerated in the last few years. Under the current administration, NASA has been told to push up its timeline and get a crewed mission to the moon by 2024 instead of 2028. That’s just five years away, and the agency now . NASA currently gets about $20 billion annually. NASA administrator Jim Bridenstine estimates that getting to the moon within five years calls for $20-30 billion in additional funding. That works out to another five or six billion dollars in NASA’s annual budget.
With Father’s Day right around the corner, many of us are still trying to decide what’s the perfect gift to buy for the man that helped raise us from a newborn babe into the person we are today. Although there isn’t a single gift that will be perfect for everyone, we’ve searched through countless deals to bring you a list of the best-priced items to buy this Father’s Day. The complete list can be found below, but first, we will discuss a few exceptional deals that we feel stand above the rest as excellent deals for dad. Note: This post was updated with additional deals on June 14.
One of the most fundamental questions in the search for extra-terrestrial life is also the most basic. In the words of Enrico Fermi: “But where is everybody?” Scientists from many disciplines have considered the question of where and how intelligent life might arise elsewhere in the universe. A new study suggests that complex alien life — the sort of life we could one day meet and potentially communicate with — might be present on far fewer worlds than previously thought, due to the toxic presence of so much CO2 on certain planets that are otherwise within the Habitable Zone (HZ) of their respective stars.
From to brain aneurysms, artificial intelligence continues to establish itself as a valuable diagnostic tool. Researchers at Stanford University have with high accuracy. Although relatively rare, present suddenly and have a very short timeframe for treatment before they become fatal. , about 30,000 people in the United States experience this condition per year, 15 percent die on the way to the hospital, and 40 percent of all cases result in fatality. Of the survivors, 66 percent suffer some degree of decreased neurological function. This makes an accurate and early diagnosis the most important factor in preventing brain aneurysm, but that has proven to be a very difficult task for medical professionals.
When AMD launched Graphics Core Next (GCN) back in 2012, few would have predicted that this GPU architecture would rule the company’s graphics products for nearly a decade. GCN was an effective design for Team Red in many ways — it was instrumental to the success of the Xbox One and PS4 console businesses — but it’s grown long in the tooth. High clocks were always challenging for AMD to hit on GCN and AMD has been unable to match Nvidia on overall power efficiency since 2013. Only the Radeon Nano — a high-end GPU built with energy-efficient HBM and binned for best-in-class power consumption — was reasonably close to matching the energy efficiency of Nvidia’s Maxwell products.
Samsung announced the nearly $2,000 Galaxy Fold several months ago with the intention of shipping it in April, but that didn’t happen. The first handful of Fold review units the company handed out suffered from an array of devastating screen defects, causing to delay the launch. News on the redesign process has been tough to come by since then, and now AT&T is done waiting. The carrier has and refunded customers. The Galaxy Fold was supposed to be the first legitimate attempt to make a folding Android phone. There have been some folding phones in the past like the FlexPai, but they’ve been little more than mostly broken tech demos created without Google’s blessing.
In the increasingly important world of cloud computing, Amazon Web Services (AWS) reigns supreme. This exceedingly powerful Amazon subsidiary allows both individual users and Fortune 500 companies to access a virtually limitless number of servers across the globe, in order to store and transfer data on the fly. The will teach you everything you need to know about this exciting platform so you can stay relevant and competitive in a number of subfields of tech, and it’s currently available for over 90% off at just $69. With eight certification courses taught by industry professionals, this bundle walks you through everything from the most elementary aspects of AWS to its more complicated and advanced tricks.
Scientists have observed many distant objects with instruments like Hubble and the upcoming James Webb Space Telescope, but everything we’ve seen represents all those stars, nebulae, and galaxies are just the tip of an unfathomable iceberg. Only about 15 percent of the universe is made up of the matter we can see, with the rest being mysterious dark matter and energy. Scientists still don’t know what is, but two theoretical physicists at the University of California Davis have a . Researchers John Terning and Christopher Verhaaren presented their work at the recent Planck 2019 conference, and a pre-print version of the paper is available for download.
