(Specifically, the Army has 5,346 Ravens, making it the most numerous military drone by far.) But in 2005, only five percent of military aircraft were robots, a report by the Congressional Research Service n...

The law of the land is Ohm’s Law — even when the land is really, really small.

Contradicting what was previously thought, researchers at the University of New South Wales have announced that the law governing electrical resistivity — how readily electrical current flows through a material — extends into the quantum realm.

This has major significance for chipmakers, who are starting to wrestle with the forces of quantum physics as transistors and interconnect sizes shrink down to a few dozen nanometers. These forces are among...

Relaunch Your OS Nostalgia With 'The Restart Page'

Are you sure you want to restart?

The Restart Page is a web-based re-creation of all the start up screens you’ve ever been forced to sit through, twiddling your thumbs while you waited for the operating system to launch.
