Catchy songs have been around as long as there's been music, but what makes a song stick in our minds is still a mystery.

Gasoline Vs Electric Cars: A Plug-In Hybrid Can Give You the Best of Both Worlds

The benefits of using a VPN service to protect your privacy are clear: Your ISP and other snoops won't be able to spy on your online activity. What's not always clear is which VPN service is trustworthy. A VPN, or virtual private network, is software that creates a secure connection between your device and the internet by routing your internet traffic through an encrypted tunnel to a remote server. A VPN essentially masks your IP address and helps keep some of your browsing activities private.

Nvidia launched the first GPU in 1999 with the GeForce 256, pioneering hardware T&L. In 2001, the GeForce 3 introduced programmable shaders, marking the shader era. Over 24 years, GPUs advanced massively, from 57 million transistors in NV20 to 92 billion in Blackwell (B100). Shader counts exploded—from 16 in 2007 to over 21,000 in 2025. Unified shaders appeared in 2007, and AI-focused Tensor Cores began in 2017. Despite huge performance gains, GPU prices rose modestly: a high-end card cost $800
