| YouTube was down but now it’s back Posted: 16 Oct 2018 08:01 PM PDT  YouTube is experiencing a major outage. Users across the world started to notice that the video service's sites and mobile apps were down around 9:20PM ET, and everything remains inaccessible more than an hour later. YouTube TV and YouTube Music are also affected by the service disruption. YouTube has acknowledged the outage in a tweet. "We're working on resolving this and will let you know once fixed," the Team YouTube account says. "We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and will keep you updated." As of 10.35PM ET, the account is still replying to reports of the outage saying that the team is working on the problem. As with all Google-operated services, serious downtime for YouTube is pretty rare. YouTube TV did suffer... |
| Peter Thiel associate named as ambassador to Sweden Posted: 16 Oct 2018 03:39 PM PDT  Ken Howery, co-founder of PayPal and a close associate of Peter Thiel, has been named President Trump's pick for ambassador to Sweden, per an announcement from the White House on Tuesday. Howery and Thiel have worked together for decades. The pair both were a part of the founding team at PayPal, and continued that partnership at both Clarium Capital and Founders Fund, along with the controversial data analytics company Palantir. Howery was particularly involved in Founders Fund's early investment in SpaceX.
Thiel was one of the most prominent Silicon Valley to publicly support Donald... |
| FCC chairman criticizes US carriers for ‘unacceptable’ progress after Hurricane Michael Posted: 16 Oct 2018 03:22 PM PDT  FCC chairman Ajit Pai has released a statement criticizing wireless carriers for being slow to restore service in areas affected by Hurricane Michael. The FCC says that the Category 4 hurricane, which devastated parts of the Florida Panhandle, has knocked out internet and cell service for up to 300,000 households. The hurricane made landfall last Wednesday on October 10th, and as of today, customers for Verizon, T-Mobile and AT&T are still experiencing outages in some areas. Pai is joining Florida Gov. Rick Scott in calling for carriers to waive monthly bills for affected customers and to allow them to "change carriers without penalty." (These days most consumers aren't under service contracts, so that's a bit of a moot point.) Pai is... |
| Netflix criticizes EU over ‘content quota’ Posted: 16 Oct 2018 02:53 PM PDT  Netflix used its third quarter earnings report to criticize the European Union over a new content quota for streaming services. The EU, writes Netflix CEO Reed Hastings in the report, is "currently rewriting its audio visual rules" that will demand streaming services like Netflix "devote a minimum of 30 percent of their catalog to European works." Netflix's report acknowledged that catering to a specific audience encouraged more regional original programming for international audiences, but suggested that enforcing quotas on a streaming service could have unwanted negative effects. "We'd prefer to focus on making our service great for our members, which would include producing local content, rather than on satisfying quotas, but we... |
| Huawei’s Nano Memory Cards are replacing microSD on its latest phones Posted: 16 Oct 2018 02:15 PM PDT  Alongside the slate of new phones Huawei announced today was an interesting addition: a new type of expandable storage the company is calling Nano Memory (NM), which replaces the traditional microSD card in the newly announced Mate 20 and Mate 20 Pro. Huawei says that NM cards, which are identical in size and shape to a Nano SIM card, are 45 percent smaller than a microSD card, and come in at least a 256GB storage and 90MB/s transfer speed version that the company showed off onstage. On the Mate 20 and Mate 20 Pro, the NM Card goes in one of the slots on the dual-SIM tray, with users having to choose between extra storage or a second SIM card. As of now, it seems that the NM Card is... |
| A pioneering scientist explains ‘deep learning’ Posted: 16 Oct 2018 01:46 PM PDT  Buzzwords like "deep learning" and "neural networks" are everywhere, but so much of the popular understanding is misguided, says Terrence Sejnowski, a computational neuroscientist at the Salk Institute for Biological Studies. Sejnowski, a pioneer in the study of learning algorithms, is the author of The Deep Learning Revolution (out next week from MIT Press). He argues that the hype about killer AI or robots making us obsolete ignores exciting possibilities happening in the fields of computer science and neuroscience, and what can happen when artificial intelligence meets human intelligence. The Verge spoke to Sejnkowski about how "deep learning" suddenly became everywhere, what it can and cannot do, and the problem of hype. This... |
| Harry Potter parody play Puffs will stream online while still in theaters Posted: 16 Oct 2018 01:40 PM PDT  Puffs — the popular Off-Broadway play that reimagines the events of J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter book and film series from the perspective of the often-unsung Hufflepuff house — is about to make history. Representatives for the comedy play have announced that Puffs will debut online on the theatrical streaming service BroadwayHD on October 18th. Per Playbill, an iTunes and Amazon release will follow on November 22nd. Puffs (full name: Puffs, Or Seven Increasingly Eventful Years at a Certain School of Magic and Magic) certainly isn't the first play to be professionally filmed or to have a live-staged recording released in theaters... |
| Teacup pigs are popular on YouTube and Instagram once again, but be warned Posted: 16 Oct 2018 01:30 PM PDT  It's a universal truth that what's old will eventually become new again, and what's beloved on Instagram or YouTube can never truly die. And so, adopting teacup pigs, a fad inspired partly by Paris Hilton in 2007 (the same year Hilton's reality series, The Simple Life, ended) is back. Saturday Night Live comedian Pete Davidson and Ariana Grande adopted a pet pig before they broke up. (Grande reportedly returned the engagement ring, but kept the pig, adorably named Piggy Smallz.) Agents of SHIELD actress Chloe Bennet and YouTube creator Logan Paul also adopted a tiny pig, Pearl. YouTube creator Ricky Dillon based his entire YouTube persona on his pet pig, Luna. Dillon even called out Paul for stealing his brand after he and Bennet... |
| How to pick the Microsoft Surface that’s right for you Posted: 16 Oct 2018 01:21 PM PDT  The family of Surface computers is now large enough to cause a bit of confusion for those who are thinking about buying one. Is the small Surface Go the best fit for your workload? Perhaps the detachable Surface Book 2 is a better choice, despite being more expensive, because of its included keyboard and optional discrete graphics? What about the newer Surface Pro 6 or Surface Laptop 2? These devices look somewhat similar at first blush, but there are some pretty stark differences that you should know about. Microsoft Surface Pro 6Microsoft's 12.3-inch tablet-laptop hybrid is the easiest to recommend for most people. Starting at $899, its 8th Gen Intel Core processor, sharp display, and higher RAM count amount to a considerable step... |
| Facebook’s ex-security chief will start a new center to bring Washington and Silicon Valley together Posted: 16 Oct 2018 01:13 PM PDT  Alex Stamos, Facebook's ex-chief security officer, thinks his former home at the heart of Silicon Valley is ill equipped to address the world's most pressing digital problems, namely security, user privacy, and the protection of democratic institutions. To address this, and perhaps help ease the tensions between Washington and the tech industry while pulling in more academic and research experts, Stamos is launching a new institute he's calling the Stanford Internet Observatory. The former exec, who left Facebook for the world of academia in August and has earned a reputation for being outspoken and frank about the issues facing the industry, plans to formally announce the institute later today with a speech at Stanford. News of Stamos'... |
