Ransomware reflects the complexities and limitations of the web. It’s worth remembering those limitations as we rely ever more on computer systems that often have pretty shallow foundations when it comes to security and reliability. For example, much of the web has been built on trust, with security very much an after-thought. There’s always been […]
Electric-vehicle concepts are common enough these days that you need more than a zero-emission powertrain to stand out. So why not work on a negative-emission EV? That’s what Heatherwick Studio did with its Airo concept, which uses a HEPA filter under the car to filter out pollution from other cars on the road. The Airo […]
The company’s 100-qubit gate-based quantum computer, code-named Hilbert, is launching later this year after final tuning and optimization work. Image: ColdQuanta By cooling atoms down to near absolute zero and then controlling them with lasers, a company has successfully created a 100-qubit quantum processor that compares to the systems developed by leading quantum players […]

There’s no rational decision flowchart that lands you here. No one, least of all Daniel Warner, thinks putting a 27-liter tank engine in a Ford Crown Victoria makes a lick of sense. Petty details like logic and reason won’t stop him, though. “It’s not an intelligent choice of engine if you want to have 2500 […]
The fighting between the United Arab Emirates and Saudi Arabia that emerged in recent days over oil production had been brewing for months, if not years. A seven-member federation of states on the Persian Gulf, the Emirates is pursuing ambitious plans to expand and modernize its economy, including billions spent on its energy industry. Eventually […]
Ticked off? Try collections. (Image: Verizon) Today, we’re disappearing into the heart, soul, and mind of someone who had a little contretemps with Verizon. No, he’s surely not the first, nor the last. He’s also not the first nor the last to have had a similar contretemps with any of the remaining phone carriers. I […]
