AMD introduces new midrange Radeon R7 265, slashes entry-level GPU pricing..

     AMD is kicking off the first quarter with some aggressive changes to its GPU roadmap, starting with the launch of a new $150 GPU this morning. The aptly-named R7 265 is sliding into the $150 bracket — and causing some significant price upheaval in the process. The “new” card itself is a rebadged 28nm GCN part — this is an R9 270, with fewer cores and a wider memory interfaceThe R7 265 should be effective competition for Nvidia in the $150 price bracket, but it also comes with an added bonus: AMD’s lower-end GPUs are getting a significant price cut.

New laser network between NYSE and NASDAQ will allow high-frequency traders to make even more money..

High-frequency trading — the practice of making thousands of algorithmic stock trades per minute  is about to get a big boost in the USA. Anova, a company that specializes in deploying low-latency networks for stock trading, is completing an ultra-high-speed laser network between the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) and the NASDAQ. The link will be just a few nanoseconds faster than the current microwave and fiber-optic links — but in the world of high-frequency trading (HFT), those nanoseconds could result in millions of dollars in profits for the trading companies. Such is the insanity of the stock markets; such is the unbelievable capacity of HFT to create money out of almost nothing.If you want to get a signal quickly from point A to point B, you basically have three options: fiber-optic cables, a network of microwave dishes, or laser links. Electrical (copper wire) networks are feasible over short runs, but their reduced functionality and bandwidth over longer runs makes them less desirable than fiber.
Microwave (and even higher-frequency millimeter wave) networks also aren’t very high-bandwidth, but because they’re purpose-built, they can take a very direct route, significantly undercutting the latency of an oft-congested and round-about fiber network. Laser networks have all the advantages of microwave /millimetre wave networks, but they have higher bandwidth, and some very clever adaptive optics means they’re not impacted by bad weather. (Microwaves really hate inclement weather.)

Windows apps and desktop are coming to Chrome OS, thanks to Google and VMware..

Google, acknowledging that “many of our customers still use traditional desktop applications” has teamed up with VMware to bring the Windows desktop and apps to Chrome OS. Apparently 21% of commercial laptop sales in the US last year were Chromebooks — and with Windows XP soon to be retired, Google and VMware think it’s prime time you make the jump to Chrome OS.The setup goes something like this: You (or rather your company’s IT admin) installs the VMware Horizon DaaS server. Horizon (which costs thousands of dollars) is basically a big server that runs virtualized instances of Windows. Then, when a user wants to use a Windows desktop or app, they simply connect to the server and request one of those instances. In this case, that connection is made using VMware View — and as of 2011, there’s an HTML5 version of VMware View that works in all major browsers, including Chrome OS. (In the photo above you can see an early beta version of VMware View logging into Windows 7 on a Chromebook.)
The HTML5 viewer is surprisingly good, especially over a high-speed LAN — but you probably won’t be using it to play fast-paced games on your Chromebook. The main use-case here is giving employees access to legacy applications — old, sometimes bespoke Windows programs that are very difficult to upgrade or migrate. This solution could also allow you to use high-performance applications like Photoshop on your wimpy, low-spec Chromebook.

First nonflammable lithium-ion battery will stop your smartphone, car, and plane from exploding..


Lithium-ion batteries, despite being one of the most important pieces of modern technology, have always had a particularly grievous flaw: they’re highly flammable. If you puncture a lithium-ion battery, or you charge and discharge them improperly, you’ll usually have a pretty bad fire on your hands — or worse, if the conditions are just right, an explosion. Most notably, the Boeing 787 Dreamliner was grounded in 2013 due to its lithium-ion battery packs causing electrical fires mid-flight, but there have also been a fair number of stories about exploding smartphone batteries recently. Now, long overdue, researchers at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill say they’ve built a nonflammable lithium-ion battery.
Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) are prone to be incendiary and explosive for two reasons: because they’re pressurized, and because their electrolyte — the charge-carrying liquid that sits between the positive and negative electrodes — is flammable. The electrolyte in an LIB is nearly always a lithium salt dissolved in an organic solvent, and most of these solvents are highly flammable. Because of these factors, LIBs are generally manufactured to a very high level of quality, but that doesn’t help you if the battery is somehow pierced (as in the Tesla Model S battery pack that was impaled and burst into flames), or if thermal runaway occurs.

Why Is Bluetooth Called Bluetooth

When two devices need to talk to each other, they need to have a handshake on various parameters
before the conversation starts. The first agreement is on the medium – will they use wires, or talk over
some wireless signal?

Bluetooth is one such wireless signal (protocol)
over which two (or more) devices communicate over.

Strange name though isn’t it – are the bluetooth waves invisible but blue and shaped like teeth? Wrong!
There is absolutely no relation between the name and the meaning.

The Bluetooth protocol was created by Ericsson (pre-Sony Ericsson) which is a major Swedish telecommunicati on company. They named it after the Danish viking
king, Harald Blåtand. As legend goes, Blåtandhad the blessed ability
to bring people negotiate with each other, and cometo talking terms.So
skilled was he, that he was able to unite Denmark and Norway together! The literal translation of Blåtand means blue-tooth, hence
the name Bluetooth for the
protocol. It does precisely what Blåtand did – lets two wireless device to communicate with each
other!

The Bluetooth symbol has
HaraldBlåtand’s initials inscribed into it (in Runic).

The two lines stickingout of the back of the B actually represent a Runic H – thats
H for Harald .The B for Bluetooth also stands for Blåtand!..
