Dr. Bruce Levy's finding that Alex Maze died of shaken baby syndrome was critical in the murder conviction of his father, Russell Maze. Decades later, Levy says he believes Maze is innocent. In the ...

Google’s Willow quantum computer is delivering. “Today, we’re announcing research that shows—for the first time in history—that a quantum computer can successfully run a verifiable algorithm on ...

One day in November, a product strategist we’ll call Michelle (not her real name), logged into her LinkedIn account and switched her gender to male. She also changed her name to Michael, she told ...

Hackers are exploiting a new, undocumented vulnerability in the implementation of the cryptographic algorithm present in Gladinet's CentreStack and Triofox products for secure remote file access and ...

Users can note which content they would like to view more frequently. Instagram is handing users some control in deciding what content they see. The social media giant is allowing users to have a say ...

Personalized algorithms may quietly sabotage how people learn, nudging them into narrow tunnels of information even when they start with zero prior knowledge. In the study, participants using ...

Tor has announced improved encryption and security for the circuit traffic by replacing the old tor1 relay encryption algorithm with a new design called Counter Galois Onion (CGO). One reason behind ...

All of modern mathematics is built on the foundation of set theory, the study of how to organize abstract collections of objects. But in general, research mathematicians don’t need to think about it ...

Recap: 3D Maze was one of the screensavers that shipped with Windows 95. The program was designed as a non-interactive demonstration of the graphics libraries supported by the new operating system.

Quantum computers are coming. And when they arrive, they are going to upend the way we protect sensitive data. Unlike classical computers, quantum computers harness quantum mechanical effects — like ...

We’re racing towards a future in which devices will be able to read our thoughts. You see signs of it everywhere, from brain-computer interfaces to algorithms that detect emotions from facial scans.

Scientists have built a 98-qubit machine that they say performs better than any other quantum computer in the world. They've used it to gain new insights into superconducting physics. When you ...
