That’s compared to just 16 first-round interviews in 2020 - a 63% rise in interviews between the two periods and is both good and bad news for those involved in the search for top engineering talent. On one hand, it suggests hiring firms looking for software engineers are finding it easier to source talent, but on the other, it created lots of work for engineers involved in hiring: four out of five hiring engineers said it would be easier to reach their hiring target if they had more qualified people available to interview candidates - and if they didn’t have to simultaneously deliver product features....

Samsung DeX greatly enhances the functionality of Samsung’s Android tablets and phones, especially for those who work on the road or need to connect to other devices outside of the office. Along with the new Samsung tablets, VMware announced Extended Display via its VMware Horizon client that now lets customers use the tablet or smartphone as a second screen with the main VMware Horizon experience output onto a large monitor via a wired or wireless connection....

QC endeavors to solve problems typically delegated to supercomputers, or that would be so delegated if supercomputers were fast enough to resolve those problems within our lifetimes. QN would secure connections between digital devices (including the conventional variety – yours and mine) using a physics technique that would be permanently crack-proof. It would rather let the connection crash than allow it to be pilfered. In a previous Status Report published in March, I came down hard on quantum computing as a viable technology....

Starting this year, select Galaxy smartphones, tablets, and smartwatches will be eligible to receive up to four generations of operating system updates and five years of security updates.

Here’s a breakdown of what this change means to Galaxy users, why it matters, and how it fares with the likes of Apple and Google....

Most 3D printers (and subtractive devices like CNC machines) use a programming language called G-code (not to be confused with the 1999 album by rapper Juvenile, the 2005 song by Geto Boys on their The Foundation album, or the album put out in 2008 by Korean rapper Eun Ji Won). The G-code we’re looking at as a foundation for desktop fabrication goes all the way back to the 1950s and the MIT Servomechanisms Laboratory....

I know this because, during last week’s Samsung Unpacked event, https://www.zdnet.com/topic/samsung/ declared that foldable phones are “the new mainstream for smartphones.” When new phones emerge, experts instantly have views. Theirs tend not always to coincide precisely with the views of, well, the mainstream user. The mainstream users like their current phones. They might even love them. But it’s not always the most technical elements that capture their attention. Fortunately, I have a mainstream user close at hand....

Revenue declined year-over-year, though total bookings grew 102% year-over-year thanks to a strong travel rebound during the second quarter. Shares fell in after-hours trading. The company reported a basic and diluted net loss per share of 3 cents. However, that does not reflect a full quarter of results since Clear Secure’s initial public offering occurred on June 30. Revenue for the quarter was $55.2 million, down 8% year-over-year. Analysts had been expecting a net loss of 31 cents per share on revenue of $54....

Technology will slither its way into every part of human life, until we are less human and ever more bits and bytes. I still don’t want it to happen quickly, so that I can shuffle away without witnessing the true horror. That’s why, whenever I hear ideas such as this one, my mouth shrivels with the fear of distaste. Please welcome Agot.ai. This claims to be “Pioneering QSR Technology with Computer Vision AI....

“The Holy Grail of HPC is to have a balanced system where you don’t run into roadblocks,” Trish Damkroger, vice president and general manager of high-performance computing at Intel, told media. “That’s why at Intel we’ve really looked at building a wide portfolio of HPC ingredients so you can pick and choose and have more of a balanced system approach.” The first is the announcement that the next generation of Intel Xeon Scalable processors, code-named Sapphire Rapids, will offer integrated high bandwidth memory (HBM), providing what Damkroger said was a dramatic boost in memory bandwidth and a significant performance improvement for HPC applications that operate memory bandwidth-sensitive workloads....

The proposed law covers hardware and software of “products with digital elements” sold in the European Union and connected to any network. The Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) proposal covers most network-connected devices except medical devices for human use and excludes “free and open-source software developed or supplied outside the course of a commercial activity”. What it describes as “high-risk AI systems” and electronic health record systems fall in scope. SEE: These are the biggest cybersecurity threats....

According to reporting by Nikkei Asia, Apple’s plan is to dramatically cut back on iPad production in order to be able to allocate more components for iPhone 13 production. This is a gamble. iPad orders are severely delayed already. Order one today, and, according to Apple, you’re not going to see it for four to five weeks. For the iPhone 13, the situation is also pretty bad, with all models and configurations delayed for three to four weeks....
