Artificial intelligence (AI) has become the workload that defines today’s semiconductor scaling. Whether in hyperscale data centers training foundation models or at the network edge executing ...

Let’s say you want to blink an LED. You might grab an Arduino and run the Blink sketch, or you might lace up a few components to a 555. But you needn’t go so fancy! [The Design Graveyard] explains how ...

Finnish company Semiqon has developed a transistor that operates with virtually zero heat dissipation. They have made silicon-based quantum processors to make future quantum computers more affordable, ...

If you’ve ever navigated your way through a set of public restrooms, chances are you’ve been confronted with these glyphs: ♀ for female, ♂ for male. Interestingly, these circle-like shapes have ...

Alongside new design materials and resources for iOS 26, iPadOS 26, and macOS Tahoe 26, Apple has also released the beta version of SF Symbols 7, a major update to its system iconography toolkit. The ...

Back in 1977, Prince signed on with Warner Bros. Records and launched an incredible career. Back then, the label gave almost total creative control to Prince, knowing that what he would come up with ...

We may receive a commission on purchases made from links. Ah, USB; where would we be without it? Introduced in the late 1990s as a one-size-fits-all replacement for the handful of ports and ...

You've seen it pretty much every day now for decades, and you've interacted with it just as many times, but have you ever wondered why the power symbol looks the way that it does? There's a joke that ...
