Hyundai Motor Co said on Thursday it was placing electric vehicles at the center of its product strategy - one that includes plans for a premium long-distance electric car as it seeks to catch up to Tesla and other rivals.

There are a ton of free VPNs out there promising no-cost invisibility on the Internet, but they're not without drawbacks.

Consumer Reports can’t recommend Microsoft Surface laptops, and neither can I.

he day before a fully automated grocery store opened its doors in 1939, the inventor Clarence Saunders took out a full page advertisement in the Memphis Press-Scimitar warning “old duds” with “cobwebby brains” to keep away. The Keedoozle, with its glass cases of merchandise and high-tech system of circuitry and conveyer belts, was cutting edge for the era and only those “of spirit, of understanding” should dare enter.

A breakthrough could lead to easier, faster and cheaper vaccines.

Not many people realize it, but Android O isn't the only big improvement making its way to mobile devices this summer.

More data is generated daily than ever, and it has to go someplace. Will it be flash or traditional disk?

North Korea tensions, password regrets, Shadow Brokers, and more of the week's top security news.

HHS is aggressively working with industry to introduce organizational cybersecurity resiliency to the Health Care Industry and move organizations away from self-regulating, checkbox-driven security standards which provide little more than security theatre.  The Healthcare Cybersecurity and Communications Integration Center (HCCIC), HHS’s new cybersecurity intelligence-sharing clearing-house, is a major step toward this goal and acts as a sector-specific cybersecurity coordination hub between the HPH sector and the NCCIC.

In a major step towards creating a tricorder, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign researchers have invented a device that allows smartphones to perform the kinds of lab-grade medical diagnostic tests that previously had to be done on large and expensive instruments. The device, called a spectral transmission-reflectance-intensity (TRI)-Analyzer, plugs into a smartphone and is able to run tests on a patient’s blood, urine, or saliva as reliably as clinic-based instruments that cost thousands of dollars. The researchers say their TRI Analyzer costs only $550.

Data from the 2016 US National Science Foundation report [PDF] on global Science & Engineering Indicators shows the stunning ascendancy of China’s research and development funding and output. The report paints a sobering picture for the future of US leadership in science, showing that China is graduating more scientists, rapidly increasing the quality of its research and even more rapidly increasing its research and development funding.

Most people understand by now a VPN keeps your internet use more private. But how does it actually work? We've broken it down.

Fake news, it's a big deal on Facebook, and we might just be getting more of it in the form of videos. Facebook recently bought a startup with an expertise in video manipulation, Deutsche Startups reported. The German-based startup Fayteq has software that is able to remove or add objects in videos, even live ones, and add effects to them.

Believe it or not, there's a crowdsourced, open source non-profit attempting to build a sea-launched suborbital rocket. Called Copenhagen Suborbitals, it even had access to a submarine. A club associated with the venture completed the sub in 2008, designed by Peter Madsen, a Danish inventor who is co-founder of the group. That submarine is now at the bottom of the sea, and Madsen is being held by Danish authorities on suspicion of "unlawful killing"—a precursor charge to manslaughter or murder.

America has held a largely romantic view of the tech industry that is at odds with reality.

For the sake of anonymity I am going to be creating this post as a new user on both Reddit and Medium. I have been keeping my eyes on Crypto for a number of years and have decided to “invest” in Crypto around 2 months ago for the following reasons...

Wind and solar energy reduce combustion-based electricity generation and provide air-quality and greenhouse gas emission benefits. These benefits vary dramatically by region and over time. From 2007 to 2015, solar and wind power deployment increased rapidly while regulatory changes and fossil fuel price changes led to steep cuts in overall power-sector emissions.

How do touch screens work? And why do bananas work just as well as your finger but pens don't?

If you’ve been hearing or reading a lot about blockchain but you still aren’t entirely certain how to define it, you’re not alone. It’s something that Jack Dorsey, the chief executive officer and chairman of Square (and CEO of Twitter), describes as the “next big unlock,” something that, he notes, is normally applied to accounting terms but has the potential to “be applied to so much more.”

Impossible Foods CEO Pat Brown argues the merits of plant-based burgers on Too Embarrassed to Ask.

Wrinkles, grey hair and niggling aches are normally regarded as an inevitable part of growing older, but now scientists claim that the ageing process may be reversible. The team showed that a new form of gene therapy produced a remarkable rejuvenating effect in mice. After six weeks of treatment, the animals looked younger, had straighter spines and better cardiovascular health, healed quicker when injured, and lived 30% longer.

The world erupted in excitement when the bitcoin price hit $4000 USD for the first time in history. Get ready to celebrate again: $5000 is on its way. The bitcoin price hit last week’s technical goal, which propelled the markets into a big upward movement. A bubble could be starting, evidenced by the abundant volatility emerging at the first support of $3500. If that support does not hold against the volatility, the next one should emerge at $3000.

A behind-the-scenes look at the cat and mouse game played by publishers and devs

Near the end of 2015, Dell rolled out their new XPS styling cues, that were so successful on the XPS 13, to its larger sibling, the XPS 15. Thanks to the Infinity Edge display, Dell’s new XPS 15 packed a full 15.6-inch display into a notebook closer to the size of a 14-inch model. Perhaps the size reduction is not quite as dramatic as the XPS 13 when it first launched with the thin-bezel design, but Dell also kept the performance heart of the XPS 15 intact with the change, keeping a quad-core 45-Watt CPU, and NVIDIA GTX 960M graphics.

When investors love a cryptocurrency without understanding it, things could end badly.

Elon Musk’s Boring Company has recommitted to building a network of high-speed transport tunnels, including a Hyperloop vacuum-tube supersonic transport system between New York and Washington DC, which it claims will whisk people from A to B at 600mph in a vacuum tube.

In a mind-boggling world first, a team of biologists and security researchers have successfully infected a computer with a into a strand of DNA.

Bitcoin is either an enormous bubble or has a lot further to run. Financial forecasters are weighing in on the cryptocurrency, trying to divine where bitcoin’s price is headed, now that it sits at around $3,400, up from around $600 a year ago. Here are the arguments for bitcoin hitting $5,000—or higher.

Ultrafast wi-fi, which is 100 times quicker than today’s mobile networks is on the horizon, after scientists proved they could send complex data using high-frequency radiation. The researchers sent video signals using terahertz, rather than traditional microwaves, at speeds of 50 gigabytes per second. Most wireless networks only operate at top speeds of 500 megabytes a second.

GNOME has had its ups and downs, but today one of the major Linux/Unix interfaces has turned 20.
