I want a future where we don’t need a desktop PC to get the best gaming graphics. Maybe I’m a dreamer who needs to keep on dreaming, but I think that that pie-in-the-sky wonderland is closer to reality than you may think, and all PC component makers need to do is hop on the eGPU train. Better yet, they need to make something that’s as easily dockable as a Switch 2, but with the added power of a discrete graphics card that could push a laptop or gaming handheld into a full desktop experience. Th
Recently, I wrote an article about my journey in learning about robots.txt and its implications on the data rights in regards to what I write in my blog. I was confident that I wanted to ban all the crawlers from my website. Turned out there was an unintended consequence that I did not account for. My LinkedIn posts became broken# Ever since I changed my robots.txt file, I started seeing that my LinkedIn posts no longer had the preview of the article available. I was not sure what the issue wa

The FIPS 140-3 Go Cryptographic Module Filippo Valsorda (Geomys), Daniel McCarney (Geomys), and Roland Shoemaker (Google) 15 July 2025 FIPS 140 is a standard for cryptography implementations and, although it doesn’t necessarily improve security, FIPS 140 compliance is a requirement in certain regulated environments that are increasingly adopting Go. Until now, FIPS 140 compliance has been a significant source of friction for Go users, requiring unsupported solutions with safety, developer exp
If there was one absence in Burtynsky’s account of our time, however, it was the single greatest result of all that mining, burning, and consuming: the transformation of the atmosphere. Nothing else comes close in scale to the chemical disruption of the air—the flood of CO 2 now rapidly overheating the Earth and producing a series of changes so titanic they dwarf even the forces that these photos depict. But carbon dioxide is invisible, which is a problem for photographers. That’s why in some w
Calvin Wankhede / Android Authority Police in Spain have reportedly started profiling people based on their phones; specifically, and surprisingly, those carrying Google Pixel devices. Law enforcement officials in Catalonia say they associate Pixels with crime because drug traffickers are increasingly turning to these phones. But it’s not Google’s secure Titan M2 chip that has criminals favoring the Pixel — instead, it’s GrapheneOS, a privacy-focused alternative to the default Pixel OS. As som
Buckminsterfullerene is a molecule shaped like a soccer ball, made of 60 carbon atoms. If one of the bonds between two hexagons rotates, we get a weird mutant version of this molecule: This is an example of a Stone-Wales transformation: a 90° rotation in a so-called ‘π bond’ between carbon atoms. Here’s how it works in graphene: Graphene is a sheet of carbon molecules arranged in hexagons. When they undergo a Stone–Wales transformation, we get a Stone–Wales defect with two pentagons and two he
Ensuring regulatory compliance is a high-stakes challenge across industries. Banks, payroll processors, and legal firms alike grapple with complex rules and massive data — and the consequences of failure are severe. In 2024, U.S. regulators fined Citigroup $136 million for falling short in fixing data management issues flagged years prior [1]. In another case, nine Wall Street companies paid $549 million in penalties after employees used unauthorized messaging apps that breached recordkeeping ru

Typically, the F.B.I. has turned to polygraph tests to sniff out employees who might have betrayed their country or shown they cannot be trusted with secrets. Since Kash Patel took office as the director of the F.B.I., the bureau has significantly stepped up the use of the lie-detector test, at times subjecting personnel to a question as specific as whether they have cast aspersions on Mr. Patel himself. In interviews and polygraph tests, the F.B.I. has asked senior employees whether they have

Following the success of its ridiculously entertaining Ioniq 5 N in 2024, Hyundai is clearly hoping it can repeat the trick by applying its speedy sub-brand's knowhow to its streamliner sibling—the result revealed today is this, the Ioniq 6 N, Hyundai's second high-performance EV. Being born from the brand's N division, which is tasked with focusing on delivering a combination of cornering prowess and racetrack capability to supposedly create accessible “everyday” sportscars, you'd expect the 6

Protect Those Headphones Satechi 2-in-1 Headphone Stand Photograph: Julian Chokkattu Even durable headphones are easy to damage. We have lost pairs to folks standing on them, cats and robot vacuums attacking the cables, and chairs rolling over them. I have learned that a stand or holder is worth the investment if it keeps those cans off the floor. Even if your kids only sometimes remember to use it, that could extend the likely lifespan of their headphones. We use the Satechi 2-in-1 Headphone
Update, July 3, 2025 (11:45 AM ET): The crew behind GrapheneOS is understandably none too pleased about their good name being dragged through the mud, and members are speaking out about these reports from Spain. Over on X, the official GrapheneOS account posts: European authoritarians and their enablers in the media are misrepresenting GrapheneOS and even Pixel phones as if they’re something for criminals. GrapheneOS is opposed to the mass surveillance police state these people want to impose o
No matter if you're working from home full-time or just a few days a week, it's important to carve out a home office setup that separates your work and personal lives. It's equally vital that your workstation is kitted out with the right gear and accessories to make the day more bearable and comfortable. Since 2020, we've been testing standing desks, office chairs, monitors, USB hubs, keyboards, and tons of other work-from-home gear in our own lives. These are our favorites. Updated June 2025:
On July 2, Netflix and Skydance will finally unleash The Old Guard 2, the long-awaited sequel to the 2020 action hit starring Charlize Theron as an immortal warrior protecting humanity. Ahead of the release, io9 caught up with returning stars KiKi Layne, Chiwetel Ejiofor, and Marwan Kenzari, as well as franchise newcomer Henry Golding (Crazy Rich Asians, Snake Eyes), to talk about stepping back into the brutal, secretive world of the Image Comics universe and what it took to bring its next chapt
Why it matters: Managing graphics memory has become one of the most pressing challenges facing the realm of real-time 3D rendering. As visuals become more detailed, the amount of VRAM required for modern high-end games is pushing against what average customers can afford. AMD and Nvidia are currently developing remedies to the issue, which involve shifting certain rendering tasks from memory to the GPU.

Monotype is keen for you to know what AI might do in typography. As one of the largest type design companies in the world, Monotype owns Helvetica, Futura, and Gill Sans — among 250,000 other fonts. In the typography giant’s 2025 Re:Vision trends report, published in February, Monotype devotes an entire chapter to how AI will result in a reactive typography that will “leverage emotional and psychological data” to tailor itself to the reader. It might bring text into focus when you look at it and
What just happened? Adobe has introduced Indigo, a new computational photography app for iPhone that aims to bring pro-grade image processing to everyday users. Developed by a team led by Marc Levoy, a pioneer in computational photography, Indigo is designed to push the boundaries of what smartphone cameras can achieve by leveraging advanced algorithms and years of research. Indigo distinguishes itself through its unique approach to image capture and processing. Unlike most camera apps that rel
One of the most effective ways to reduce latency in LLM inference is to fuse all computation and communication into a single megakernel — also known as a persistent kernel. In this design, the system launches just one GPU kernel to execute the entire model — from layer-by-layer computation to inter-GPU communication — without interruption. This approach offers several key performance advantages: Eliminates kernel launch overhead, even in multi-GPU settings, by avoiding repeated kernel invocatio

Graphic design is an incredibly creative medium, but you have to have the right device to bring your ideas to fruition. A good laptop is more than a machine. It's a creative tool as important to the graphic designer as the brush is to the artist. It needs to run demanding software, display color with precision, and handle massive files without stuttering or overheating. We tested the top models of 2025 to find which ones meet the demanding needs of today's graphic artists. Also: Best laptops f
