Chris Matthews apparently just quit "Hardball With Chris Matthews" live on air. The abrupt exit of the MSNBC anchor happened after columnist Laura Bassett accused Matthews of sexually harassing her in 2016, and after a terse exchange with presidential candidate Elizabeth Warren about believing women in workplace disputes.

"Compliments on a woman's appearance that some men, including me, might have once incorrectly thought were okay, were never okay," Matthews said. "Not then, and certainly not today. And for making such comments on the past, I'm sorry."

"That was a lot to take in just now, I'm sure," said a surprised-looking Steve Kornacki, in response to Matthews'...

There's still a lot we don't know about the device, including price or many of its features, but there are a few things we can speculate about from this one image. It looks like you can use the watch to make and receive calls. And if you look at the watch on the...

Stanford University's Folding@home distributed computing project is seeking volunteers to help researchers develop treatment therapies for the novel coronavirus.

Folding@home (FAH) uses the processing capacity of networked computers to simulate the complex process of protein folding, which helps determine how to treat diseases like Alzheimer's and cancer, and SARS, another coronavirus. A brief explainer from Folding@home:

For both coronaviruses [the current 2019 nCoV and SARS], the first step of infection occurs in the lungs, when a protein on the surface of the virus binds to a receptor protein on a lung cell. This viral protein is called the spike protein ... Proteins are not stagnant—they wiggle and fold and unfold to take on...

North Korean hackers stole $250 million worth of cryptocurrency from an exchange and two Chinese nationals helped them launder $100 million of it using prepaid iTunes gift cards and other methods, according to the US Department of Justice. The US Treasury Department says the scheme is tied to the Lazarus Group, a criminal enterprise linked to North Korea and its efforts to steal cryptocurrency and various other high-profile cyberattacks.

Prosecutors said the North Korean hackers stole the crypto money in 2018 after an employee of a cryptocurrency exchange unknowingly downloaded North Korean malware. That gave the attacker access to private keys, virtual currency, and other customer information. The hackers evaded law enforcement and...

Waymo rakes in $2.25 billion in self-driving unit’s first external fundraising

Posted: 02 Mar 2020 02:33 PM PST

Waymo just announced a significant milestone: its first external fundraising round. The self-driving division of Alphabet raked in $2.25 billion in a funding round led by Silver Lake, Canada Pension Plan Investment Board, and Mubadala Investment Company, the sovereign wealth fund of Abu Dhabi. Additional investors include Magna International, Andreessen Horowitz, and AutoNation, as well as Alphabet.

To date, Waymo has been an outlier in the world of self-driving cars, relying almost exclusively on the largesse of its corporate parent. That changes with today's announcement, shifting Waymo into an uncertain but potentially lucrative new phase.

The Google Pixel Slate tablet includes a keyboard and pen for $599

One of the best deals from last year's Black Friday shopping holiday was on the Google Pixel Slate tablet. That deal is back, and it's a little better than before. Not only is it hundreds off of its usual $999 price, it's an extra $50 cheaper than the previous best price, totaling $599 instead of $649 for the midrange configuration with an Intel Core i5 CPU.

Plus, Google is throwing in a free Pixel Slate pen and keyboard at no extra cost, which would have sent the price sailing up to $1,300 if you bought them with the tablet when it released. You can find this bundle at the Google Store (via About Chromebooks).

The Pixel Slate is available in a few different configs that vary in terms of storage and processor, but the one we're talking...
