Google’s Pixel 10 phones are among the best camera phones on the market, and this generation marks the first time in a while that the entire series offers a telephoto camera. The Pixel 10 ships with a 10.8MP 5x camera, while the Pixel 10 Pro phones pack a great 50MP 5x periscope camera.There’s one big feature missing from Google’s telephoto cameras, though, and I really hope to see it on the Pixel 11 Pro line. Of course, I’m talking about telephoto macro capabilities. Do you use macro photo mode on your phone?2 votesYes, via the telephoto camera0%Yes, via the ultrawide…

Abstract：Constructing heterointerface has been the preferential strategy for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) due to the synergistical H 2 O dissociation and *H adsorption. Ni/Ni(OH) 2 hybrid catalyst with isogenous heterointerface have exhibited great potential in alkaline HER. However, designing high performance Ni/Ni(OH) 2 and understanding the catalytic mechanisms still remains challenging. Herein, we demonstrate that the HER performance of Ni/Ni(OH) 2 depends significantly on interface density and deprotonation. Experimentally, Ni and Ni(OH) 2 grains are refined to enlarge the interface density at the elevated temperature, and the activity and stability are rationally tuned by delicately regulating deprotonation at varied oxidization…

Scrum has a bad reputation in some organizations. In many cases, this is because teams did something they called Scrum, it didn’t work, and Scrum took the blame. To counter this, when working with organizations, we like to define a small set of rules a team must follow if they want to say they’re doing Scrum. Enforcing this policy helps prevent Scrum from being blamed for Scrum-like failures. We’ve created a simple Scrum Litmus Test—a quick way for any team or organization to assess whether they are actually practicing Scrum. It’s definitely not in full compliance with the Scrum Guide.…

Earlier this week, Nvidia surprise-announced their new Vera Rubin architecture (no relation to the recently unveiled telescope) at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas. The new platform, set to reach customers later this year, is advertised to offer a ten-fold reduction in inference costs and a four-fold reduction in how many GPUs it would take to train certain models, as compared to Nvidia’s Blackwell architecture. The usual suspect for improved performance is the GPU. Indeed, the new Rubin GPU boasts 50 quadrillion floating-point operations per second (petaFLOPS) of 4-bit computation, as compared to 10 petaflops on Blackwell, at least…

I still remember when I saw the first mainstream folding phone. The original Samsung Galaxy Z Fold was presented to the media in a back room during the IFA trade show in Berlin, and it was one of the times in my 15 years as a tech journalist where I remember being blown away. Not because it was perfect – it wasn’t, of course – but because it was a defining moment in the last two decades of phones. Fast forward seven years, and here we are again. The Samsung Galaxy Z TriFold is another one of those moments. It’s…

Even as the world is still settling into Wi-Fi 7, the next generation is already moving from concept to test bench In sum— what to know: LitePoint validates Qualcomm’s Wi-Fi 8 hardware: LitePoint achieves PHY level validation of Qualcomm’s Wi-Fi 8 hardware on its IQxel-MX platform Platform of choice: Released in Sept, 2025, the IQxel-MX offers system-level characterization and validation of all Wi-Fi 8 and Wi-Fi 7 applications.   We have barely embraced Wi-Fi 7 — some of us are still on Wi-Fi 6 — but Wi-Fi 8 is already upon us. The new generation of Wi-Fi was one of the…

In this article, you will learn how quantization shrinks large language models and how to convert an FP16 checkpoint into an efficient GGUF file you can share and run locally. Topics we will cover include: What precision types (FP32, FP16, 8-bit, 4-bit) mean for model size and speed How to use huggingface_hub to fetch a model and authenticate How to convert to GGUF with llama.cpp and upload the result to Hugging Face And away we go. Quantizing LLMs Step-by-Step: Converting FP16 Models to GGUFImage by Author Introduction Large language models like LLaMA, Mistral, and Qwen have billions of parameters that…

It’s a crisp morning in Durham, North Carolina, and I’m staring at a patchwork of faces on my Webex screen. From September 2025 until end of last year, I’ve listened as colleagues from across our Cisco family of team members shared stories with me that were as raw as they were illuminating. Their voices, streaming in from kitchen tables, living rooms, and sometimes cars, offer a ground-level view of the digital divide—a gap that, for many, is as real as the miles of empty road stretching between rural clinics. As every state prepares for a historic wave of investment in…

When 30+ AI agents diagnose your network, can you trust them? Imagine dozens of AI agents working in unison to troubleshoot a single network incident—10, 20, even more than 30. Every decision matters, and you need full visibility into how these agents collaborate. This is the final installment in our three-part series on Deep Network Troubleshooting.In the first blog, we introduced the concept of using deep research-style agentic AI to automate advanced network diagnostics. The second blog tackled reliability: we covered reducing large language model (LLM) hallucinations, grounding decisions on knowledge graphs, and building semantic resiliency. All of that is…
