The rising use of quantum computing technology is accompanied by a number of quantum computing jobs Experts believe that quantum computing can change the world. It possesses the capabilities of revolutionizing the drug discovery process, facilitating deciphering codes for security purposes, and so much more. Currently, it is safe to say that quantum computing can help solve several complex issues, which would not have been possible otherwise. This rising use of quantum computing technology is also accompanied by a…

Study the comparison between Adobe and Salesforce to pick the best cloud computing stock Investors are well-aware that cloud computing is the future of business technology. In many cases, they are adding stocks like NVIDIA, Microsoft, Amazon, and Alibaba to their portfolios, because these are the companies leading the way in cloud computing infrastructure. However, there is more to investing in the cloud than focusing on companies that offer cloud services. In this article, we will compare two cloud computing…

There are now a lot of truly excellent handhelds that let you enjoy the retro games of your youth anywhere, but none are as simple and streamlined as the Evercade, which is getting a major upgrade later this year with the Evercade EXP. This new model has Wifi and a better screen, but more notably includes extra buttons, allowing the console to be played sideways for games requiring a portrait-oriented screen.When we first heard about the Evercade back in 2019, we were skeptical about its use of cartridges, since most…

Salesforce Inc. CRM -2.94% posted a better-than-expected 24% increase in fiscal first-quarter revenue, easing concerns about demand for its business software.Shares of Salesforce, which have fallen this year along with a broader selloff in tech stocks, rose more than 7% in after-hours trading following the company’s results. The San Francisco-based company reported revenue of $7.41 billion, up from $5.96 billion in the year-ago quarter and above the estimates by the…

Though the U.S. may be lagging behind other countries in terms of consumer broadband and wireless speeds, it can now at least claim the mantle as the top dog of supercomputers. Well, maybe anyway.That’s thanks to Frontier, a new supercomputer developed by Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) which this week became the first machine capable of demonstrating “exascale” performance, a highly coveted computing benchmark roughly equivalent to one quintillion operations per second. That mind-boggling number comes out to roughly…

HP offered an upbeat earnings outlook even as ongoing supply-chain disruptions and sanctions against Russia impact its laptop and printing business.The tech equipment company on Tuesday said demand for computers in recent months was largely fueled by sales to commercial customers. HP joined Dell Technologies Inc. and others in seeing a slowdown in lower-cost laptop sales that boomed during the pandemic, whereas businesses are still investing in computers as staff switch from remote to hybrid work arrangements. HP…

Imagine your next Apple Watch doubling as a removable wrist camera. Screenshot: USPTOThe thing about patents is that, even when they’re quietly filed, they eventually get exposed—especially if they’re Apple patents. The latest Apple patent to get this treatment concerns the Apple Watch, and how it might potentially fit a camera in the future.Imagine using the Apple Watch itself to snap a photo. It’s a different concept from how some smartwatches do cameras now, where they allow you to use thewearable as a camera remote…

In its announcement Tuesday, Microsoft talked up its Entra management systems that includes Verified ID, promoting itself as a quick way of giving sensitive identification to entities thatneed to verify that you are who you say you are.In…

Singapore is aiming to boost its capabilities in quantum computing with new initiatives to develop relevant skillsets and quantum devices. It stresses the need to do so to ensure encryption technologies remain robust and able to withstand "brute force" attacks. The Singapore government on Tuesday announced plans to set aside SG$23.5 million (17.09 million) to support three national platforms, parked under its Quantum Engineering Programme (QEP), for up to 3.5 years. The scheme is part of the country's Research,…

Nvidia is accelerating its efforts to bridge the GPU and quantum computing realms through cuQuantum, its Tensor-capable (opens in new tab)quantum simulation toolkit. Through it, the company aims to accelerate quantum circuit simulation workloads in ways that are beyond the reach of today's NISQ (Noisy Intermediate-Scale Quantum) systems. But for that to happen, the company is betting on further integration between quantum and classical systems towards hybrid solutions. Unsurprisingly, GPUs are at the forefront of…
