A team of Yale researchers just blew the lid off one of quantum computing’s biggest problems: the unpredictability of qubits. In what’s being dubbed “a beautiful experiment,” the team discovered how to catch a simulated atom in mid “quantum jump,” and interfere with its outcome. Schrodinger’s cat lives! With regards to Bohr and Schrodinger What makes quantum computers special is their qubits. Where computer bits are switches that indicate either ones or zeros, qubits exist in more than one state at a time until observed. This is called superposition and, at its most basic, means we have more options for…

This year’s WWDC conference was probably the most memorable in years, and it’s all because of three little words: The Mac Pro. This modular, extensible machine is strongly reminiscent of the Power Mac G5 (remember that?) and is easily the most powerful Apple computer money (can’t yet) buy. This machine, which boasts tremendous CPU and graphical capabilities, is available as a desktop computer, as well as in a rack-mounted option. Interestingly, it is also the first rack-mounted computer available from Apple since January 31, 2011, when it discontinued the Xserve. And while they both enjoy similar form-factors, the two can’t…

Apple today unveiled its new iOS 13 at its developer conference. While there are tons of exciting features like dark mode and the new photos app, the company has introduced a bunch of features specifically for India. The new version of iOS will bring support for all 22 official Indian languages. Plus, you can specify during the setup if you speak more than one languages, and the phone will tune keyboard, dictation languages, and preferred languages accordingly. Apple has also introduced a romanized Hindi and English bilingual keyboard that supports predictive text. What’s more, iOS 13 also has a Hindi keyboard in Devnagri…

Apple launched its Swift programming language almost five years ago. It was designed to supplant Objective-C with something that’s powerful, expressive, and crucially, as easy for beginners to grasp as Python. While it largely succeeded, one hindrance was the underlying MacOS and iOS APIs, which weren’t nearly as intuitive. Enter SwiftUI, which is Apple’s newest UI framework. SwiftUI is available across all of Apple’s menagerie of devices: phones, tablets, TV boxes, watches, and computers. It allows developers to create UI elements with an expressive, simple declarative syntax. Crucially, this can be done without writing mountains of code. Yes, this is…
