If Silicon Valley wants to preserve its dominant status, it’s time to remember the words of Andy Grove, the iconoclastic C.E.O. of Intel: “Only the paranoid survive.”
By using eye-tracking technology to automatically control a pair of autofocus lenses, engineers have created a prototype for “autofocals” designed to restore proper vision in people who would ordinarily need progressive lenses.
Only supercomputers have the oomph to tackle the grandest challenges facing science, but the difficulty of programming these machines impedes discovery.
The team won 3rd place in the 2019 University Rover Challenge (URC) competition which took place at the Mars Desert Research Station (MDRS) in southern Utah.
Designers have always had to find and fix the logic flaws, or bugs, that make chips vulnerable to attack. Now computer algorithms are helping them identify these threats.
Stanford scientist and graduating doctoral student Irena Fischer-Hwang made a new discovery during her studies at Stanford: a passion for data-driven news.
