In the ever-evolving field of electronics engineering, the pursuit of smaller and more powerful field effect transistors (FETs) has been an ongoing challenge. FETs are critical components in the majority of electronic devices, as they regulate the flow of electrical current. However, efforts to downsize FETs to dimensions below 10nm have proven to be exceptionally
Meta, the parent company of Facebook and Instagram, has announced that it will be discontinuing its cross-platform messaging service, which allowed users to message accounts on Facebook from their Instagram accounts. This decision comes three years after the introduction of the feature, and users will now be limited to messaging users on the platform they
Researchers at the University of Cambridge have made a groundbreaking discovery by observing magnetic monopoles in hematite, a material closely related to rust. This finding has the potential to revolutionize computing technologies and pave the way for greener and faster computing systems. Utilizing diamond quantum sensing, the researchers were able to detect faint magnetic signals
Video game publisher Take-Two Interactive Software experienced a decline in stock prices after the release of the trailer for the highly anticipated Grand Theft Auto VI game.

As anticipation builds for the highly anticipated Grand Theft Auto 6, a leak has recently emerged claiming to showcase footage from the upcoming game. The leaked video, posted by TikTok user ‘azzarossi’ and shared on GTABase.com’s Twitter account, provides a brief panoramic view of a location believed to be the game’s setting – a fictionalized
Protein research, diagnostics, and analytics rely heavily on the detection, identification, and analysis of macromolecules. Mass spectrometry, a commonly used detection system, helps separate charged particles (ions) and provides valuable information about the composition of a sample. However, conventional detectors have limitations in detecting particles with low-impact energy. An international research team, led by quantum
Music streaming giant Spotify recently announced its decision to lay off 17% of its workforce in an effort to cut costs and adapt to a slowdown in growth. This move comes as a surprise to many, considering the company’s previous optimism in hiring during the years 2020 and 2021. In an internal memo, CEO Daniel
