According to the piece, the path to getting the replacement of internal combustion engines is not without hurdles. Consumer demand remains modest.

The plan calls for significant consumer rebates, investment into better batteries, and the conversion of the federal government's ...

AirDrop uses Wi-Fi and Bluetooth Low Energy to establish direct connections with nearby devices so they can beam pictures, documents, and other things from one iOS or macOS device to another.

Believe it or not, the $1.9 trillion coronavirus relief legislation that President Biden signed into law back in early March is going to have ramifications that continue to be felt pretty much for the rest of this year.

Starting in July, an expansion of the federal child tax credit made possible by Biden's stimulus bill means families are going to start getting stimulus checks totaling as much as $3,600over the ...

There's an old joke that made the rounds on Twitter a few years back which said that there's only one Netflix subscriber in the world and that his password was being shared by millions of people.

While password sharing outside of family members is technically not something Netflix allows, it's also something Netflix has historically not done anything to stop or even prevent. For the most part, Netflix has seemed happy enough to let people share their passwords far and wide and simply upcharge folks who want to increase the number of screens that can be watched concurrently.

Conservative versus liberal: A knock-down, drag-out climate policy fight

While the United States debates whether or not to put a price on carbon emissions, Canada is getting into the nitty-gritty of how best to do it. The country's ruling Liberal Party enacted its carbon tax back in 2016 to much controversy. Former Conservative Party of Canada (CPC) leader Andrew Scheer decried the tax and suggested it was a blow to national unity within Canada. A few provinces with conservative governments—notably Ontario and oil-rich Alberta—took legal action against the tax, claiming that it wasn't constitutional.

Recently, the Supreme Court of Canada decided ...

Apple's ransomware mess is the future of online extortion

On the day Apple was set to announce a slew of new products at its Spring Loaded event, a leak appeared from an unexpected quarter. The notorious ransomware gang REvil said they had stolen data and schematics from Apple supplier Quanta Computer about unreleased products and that they would sell the data to the highest bidder if they didn't get a $50 million payment. As proof, they released a cache of documents about upcoming, unreleased MacBook Pros. They've since added iMac schematics to the pile.

The legacy of the Modernist movement is a complicated one. Spanning a diverse assortment of fiercely debated sub-categories and styles, the Modernist style has established its presence in virtually every continent. Although the movement's origins may be rooted in Europe and the U.S, outside of the Eurocentric canon architects have redefined and re-established what the definition of a "Modernist" building is. In Sri Lanka, for example, architect Geoffrey Bawa's sensitive, nature-inspired architectural responses gave rise to the "Tropical Modernism"label. Over in the African continent, ...
