Stanford is also ending its test-optional policy, requiring SAT or ACT scores for the first time since 2021.

The following account of the real origins of Cisco Systems, as opposed to the history often recounted in Cisco company literature, was written in 1999 by Tom Rindfleisch. Rindfleisch was Director of the SUMEX-AIM project (1973-1990), under which the software for a powerful Internet router system was developed and widely deployed at Stanford and elsewhere for research purposes. That code found its way, without approval from the original developers, to form the basis of the Cisco router. Tom Rindf

Stanford's holographic AI glasses are coming for your clunky VR headset

zdnet.com David Gewirtz 2025-12-14 22:26:17

Over the past couple of years, with the introduction of the Apple Vision Pro and the Meta Quest 3, I've become a believer in the potential of mixed reality.

It has been viewed over 120 million times and is quoted to this day. Pr
