When you look at equity mutual funds, the first thing that comes to your mind is growth, a way to build wealth in the long run. But then the real question tags along: where should you put your money? Large-caps feel safe with their steady compounding, mid-caps hold the promise of growth, and then there are small-caps, which look tempting with their high-risk but high-reward appeal. Multi-cap funds, one type of equity mutual funds, resolve this issue, by giving you a bit of everything in just one single scheme. In September 2020, Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI), the…
Jimmy Kimmel returned to ABC this week. Sort of. About a quarter of ABC’s usual audience couldn’t see the talk show host this week after two major owners of ABC affiliates, Sinclair and Nexstar, refused to carry the show. Those right-leaning companies apparently felt that Kimmel’s joke—which included some disputed facts—was so unpardonable that they couldn’t expose their viewers to the comedian. They were also the first organizations to pull the plug on Kimmel, after Federal Communications Commission chair Brendan Carr seemed to threaten action. That means that even the stations that did carry the show—as well as Disney, which…
Bearing in mind this is the Chinese model (there’s no word on a global edition yet), I was unable to test all of the functionality, but I have a good idea what will work here and what doesn’t. I love the time and notifications, because I don’t have to pick up my phone as much when it’s face down on the desk and I’m working.The customizable themes and pets are fun. It’s an opportunity to add a little more personality to your phone. While the real-time updates work only with select Chinese apps right now, the utility is clear, and…
For central government employees, the National Pension System (NPS) is no longer the only option available for retirement savings. With the introduction of the Unified Pension Scheme (UPS), effective from April 1, 2025, there is now an alternative to consider. So, can you choose between NPS and UPS? The answer is yes. You have the option to select between NPS and UPS until September 30, 2025, if you wish to make the switch. Now, the bigger question is: Should you switch from NPS to UPS? The answer is not straightforward and involves various factors. To determine which option—NPS or UPS—might…
The big limitation with Chromebook software is in downloading applications from the web. With Chromebooks, you just can’t. So that means you can’t download more advanced software like video editing, photo editing, or industry-specific applications. The only apps you can download are the Android apps you’ll find in the Google Play Store. This can be helpful to fill in the gaps, though most of the web apps will be better solutions, as not all of these apps are well-optimized for touchpads. Fortunately, there are many touchscreen-enabled Chromebooks that feel more natural to control.Because it’s primarily a web browser, Chromebooks aren’t…
Compare Top 9 Robot VacuumsOther Robot Vacuums to ConsiderPhotograph: Adrienne SoWe are approaching the great robot vacuum convergence. At whatever price you want to pay, you can find a robot vacuum that will look very similar and have similar features. Here are a few that also worked well for us.Roborock Qrevo Curv for $1,099: This was Roborock’s 2024 flagship vacuum, and it’s still great (reviewer Ryan Waniata calls it the best robot vacuum he’s ever used). It has slightly less suction power than this year’s Saros 10R, but I did use it to clean an entire carpet full of baking…
Still, developers say that bringing code from Nvidia’s CUDA to ROCm isn’t a smooth process, which means they typically focus on building for just one chip vendor.“ROCm is amazing, it’s open source, but it runs on one vendor’s hardware,” Lattner told the crowd at AMD’s Advancing AI event in June. Then he made his pitch for why Modular’s software is more portable and makes GPUs that much faster.Lattner’s talk at AMD is representative of the kind of dance that Lattner and Davis need to do as they spread the Modular gospel. Today, Nvidia and AMD are both crucial partners for…
He suspected this absurd-seeming pattern was due to limitations baked into the software used by parking control officers. Whatever its reason for existing, the pattern of sequential ticket IDs, paired with parking officers likely claiming batches of ticket numbers, meant Walz was able to track their routes by plotting each parking ticket on a map as soon as it was entered into the system. A car owner could look at the activity of the officers currently out on patrol and see if any of them were slowly descending on their neighborhood.Last year, parking officials in San Francisco issued over a…
Understanding how customers experience your brand is critical to building lasting relationships.

Depending on how you think about it, there’s half a dozen or more approaches to the hardware. And I became excited that within the hardware approach, the neutral atom approach was high potential. So we backed [Thompson’s] company called Logiqal.What happens if you’re right?I’m a venture investor, and we believe in convexity—taking risks on things that most likely won’t work, but if they do work could be 500x in value.It’s a real earth-moving innovation if there’s a chance that quantum computers find the path toward success. You unlock these thinking engines, these computational engines that can run the future of…
