No chit-chat. This is serious. If you survived Friday the 13th, you’d be wise not to push your luck. I mean this: Tell us your weekend gaming plans and I won’t egg your windows. You heard me. Hop to.

The Samsung Galaxy M42 5G unveiled in April 2021 may get a successor this year since the Samsung Galaxy M44 5G has bagged Bluetooth certification, moving it a step closer to the launch. The Samsung Galaxy M44 5G’s listing on the Bluetooth SIG’s website reveals the smartphone has model designation SM-M446K and Bluetooth 5.2 connectivity, but it doesn’t divulge anything else about it. The Galaxy M44 5G with the same model code was spotted on Geekbench with Android 13, 6GB RAM, and, surprisingly, the Snapdragon 888 SoC. However, we’ve seen fake benchmark listings in the past, so we’ll have to…
Cross section of the profile as it passes the point of maximum temperature (200 degrees Celsius) in the heated die. The colors indicate the temperature distribution. The material heats up the most in scenario (a), because it is pulled through slowly, at 3.3 millimeters per second. The pulling speeds in scenarios (b) and (c) are two and three times faster, respectively, and as we will see below, this leads to structural defects seen with a microscope and inferior performance, exposed by mechanical strength tests.

116 Yes, Pittsburgh calls itself the ‘robotics capital of the world’. And places like Silicon Valley and Boston are known for churning out automation-related startups. But could Atlanta soon be known as a hub for robotics innovation? Ward Broom, ATDC’s Automation and Robotics Catalyst, told Hypepotamus that Atlanta and the entire State of Georgia is ripe for such robotics growth. “Multiple robotics and integration companies are headquartered here or have a significant presence, and many Fortune 500 corporations headquartered in Georgia are implementing robotics solutions,” Broom added. “Respected healthcare institutions are collaborating with industry and education to improve healthcare delivery. …
During cross-examination, defense attorney Mark Cohen continually tried to stress that Alameda’s total net value assets were the same across the alternatives, and Ellison kept responding that, yes, but the balance sheets were still misleading.Things Sam Is Freaking Out AboutAccording to Ellison’s “things Sam is freaking out about” document, Bankman-Fried was stressed about “getting regulators to crack down on Binance,” bad PR, raising money from Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, and possibly buying Snapchat.In time, the bad PR (and worse than bad PR) came true, SBF didn’t raise money from Mohammed bin Salman, and he certainly didn’t buy Snapchat,…
Devialet isn’t like any other tech company — its products are at the intersection of audio engineering and luxury. That’s why its new wireless earbuds with active noise cancellation don’t look like other earbuds. This isn’t a mass market product. When I covered the product launch at the Paris Opera, the French company’s CEO Franck Lebouchard told me that it expects to sell “tens of thousands” of units per year. Analysts estimate that Apple sells tens of millions of AirPods per year. Devialet hopes it can capture 0.x percent of market share by positioning itself as a high-end alternative to…

The iPhone 15 is selling tremendously well, as expected. What’s different this year is that the smartphone market is in a slump due to the economy. Apple has the luxury of something most Android vendors don’t: an enormous user base that’s willing to upgrade nearly every year. But even Apple is feeling the pressure.

DOI: 10.1039/D3YA00154G An Australian-led international research team, including a core group of ANSTO scientists, has found that doping a promising material provides a simple, effective method capable of extracting uranium from seawater. The research, published in Energy Advances and featured on the cover, could help in designing new materials that are highly selective for uranium, efficient, and cost-effective. Uranium is a highly valued mineral used as a fuel source in nuclear reactors around the world. “There’s a lot of uranium in the oceans, more than a thousand times…
Foundry partner Brad Feld joins board, sees Vendasta as a “natural consolidator” of B2B SaaS firms.
