A startup hopes to challenge Nvidia, AMD, and Intel with a chip that wrangles probabilities rather than ones and zeros.

Every day brings with it the same threat: the possibility of learning something new about Free Press reporter Olivia Reingold.

The author of an historically malevolent piece of journalism has not been shy about using social media to let us all know how none of her friends like her anymore, on account of all the genocide denial she considers to be her day job.

The system takes into account elevation changes and other driving conditions to decide when a recharge is necessary. If the vehicle’s battery level becomes too low, Apple Maps will automatically direct the driver to the nearest compatible charging station.
