Expression funhonestdudeGoogle gives the Pixel camera superhuman night vision
Two years ago, Google’s release of the first Pixel smartphone radically raised the bar for the image quality we could expect from mobile cameras. Today, even as everyone else struggles to catch up, Google is extending its lead with the introduction of an equally revolutionary new camera. It’s called Night Sight, and it effectively lets your phone camera see in the dark. Only it doesn’t require any additional hardware or cost: Night Sight is a new camera mode for Pixel phones.

Boeing didn’t inform pilots about a control issue with some new 737 Max jets before a deadly Lion Air crash
Boeing didn’t inform pilots about a control issue with some new 737 Max jets before a deadly Lion Air crash. The automated stall-prevention system on the Boeing 737 Max 8 and Max 9 models could push the nose down unexpectedly and then can’t be pulled back up. But pilots weren’t alerted to the new system on the Boeing 737 Max variants or issues with it, according to a Wall Street Journal report late Monday.

These fragile, futuristic batteries run longer with a little oil
Batteries that use aluminum and oxygen normally live fast and die young. But a new design could help these high-energy devices endure. Aluminum-air batteries are promising candidates for a new generation of non-rechargeable batteries, because they’re super lightweight and compact. The batteries, however, aren’t widely used because their internal components quickly degrade each other.

Here’s what Samsung’s wacky folding phone looks like in action
As rumored, Samsung showed off a prototype of a folding display today. Folded, it’s a smartphone. Unfolded, it’s a tablet. Neat! Less neat: The company sort of went out of its way to not really show very much. A prototype was onstage for about 45 seconds, and it was deliberately backlit to be intensely silhouetted. They “disguised the elements of the design” to keep secret whatever secret sauce they have.

Physicists Just Made Quantum Data Storage Easier
Quantum physicists from the University of Alberta, Canada, announced this week that they have developed a new technique for storing quantum information into pulses of light. The physicists created "a new way to store pulses of light—down to the single-photon level—in clouds of ultracold rubidium atoms, and to later retrieve them on demand by shining a ‘control' pulse of light,” Lindsay LeBlanc, assistant professor of physics and Canada Research Chair in Ultracold Gases for Quan...
