A year ago, the digital ad market was in a state of slump, with Meta’s finance chief, Susan Li, expressing concerns about weak advertising demand. Both Meta and Google experienced a decline in ad revenue, which was attributed to factors such as inflation, supply chain issues, and global conflict. However, the narrative has since changed,
Naughty Dog’s co-president, Neil Druckmann, has hinted at the possibility of a third installment in The Last Of Us franchise. While this is not a confirmation of a new game in development, Druckmann believes that there might be “one more chapter to this story.” In a recent Making-Of feature, he expressed his thoughts on the
Bethesda’s highly anticipated Indiana Jones game, titled “Indiana Jones and the Great Circle,” is set to release on various platforms. Initially announced as an Xbox and PC exclusive during Microsoft’s Xbox Developer Direct event, there are now indications that the game might also come to Sony’s PlayStation 5 (PS5). This shift toward multi-platform releases is
Instagram, the popular social media platform, is constantly seeking ways to improve user experience and provide new features to enhance the overall aesthetic of user profiles. One of the latest additions being tested is a “Show Preview” button that allows users to view how their feed posts will look on their profile grid before publishing.
The aviation market is currently facing significant challenges due to delays caused by supply chain constraints for both Boeing and Airbus. Boeing has been grappling with difficulties surrounding its star plane, the 737 MAX, prompting a major safety incident on Alaska Airlines in January. As a result, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has frozen Boeing’s
Semiconductor moiré superlattices have proven to be intriguing material structures for the study of correlated electron states and quantum physics phenomena. A recent study conducted by researchers at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) delves deeper into the underlying physics of these structures and proposes a new theoretical framework. This article aims to analyze the study
With the rise of driverless cars and planes, the future of transportation is rapidly changing. However, concerns about safety still loom large. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration reported hundreds of crashes involving autonomous control, resulting in fatalities and injuries. Testing alone cannot guarantee the safety of these systems, as flaws may go unnoticed. However,
The news media industry has been experiencing a turbulent period, with layoffs becoming a common occurrence. This downturn seems to be a recurring theme throughout its history, presenting an unsettling reality. However, News Tower, a newspaper management simulation game set in the 1930s, offers players a unique opportunity to construct their media empire from scratch
In recent years, there has been a growing demand for advanced battery technologies that can meet the increasing needs of the electronics industry. Engineers and chemists have been working tirelessly to develop innovative battery designs, resulting in the emergence of all-solid-state batteries (ASSBs). Unlike traditional lithium-ion batteries, ASSBs feature a solid electrolyte sandwiched between two
