Black Pearl Galaxy S7 edge with 128GB storage now available in India


The Galaxy S7 edge is now available in six color variants.

If you’re in the market for a high-end phone in India, you’re in luck, because Samsung has introduced two new color options of the S7 edge in the country. The company rolled out the Pink Gold color variant in the country last week, and is now following it up with the more interesting Black Pearl model.

The Pink Gold variant has the same 32GB internal storage as the standard colors, and is priced the same at ₹50,900. Meanwhile, the Black Pearl version has 128GB storage, and is now available for ₹56,900. The added storage combined with the black color scheme makes the Black Pearl a no-brainer if you want a high-end phone loaded to the gills with features. Shipments of the Black Pearl will kick off from December 30.

Those that are purchasing the new color options will be able to pick up the Gear VR at a discounted price of ₹2,980, and get a screen replacement for free.

If either color option isn’t to your liking, Samsung also rolled out the Blue Coral variant of the S7 edge in India earlier this month. The phone is also available in Black Onyx, Gold Platinum, and Silver Titanium. Basically, whatever your color preference, you will find an S7 edge model that suits your needs.

Ultrafast lasers capture elusive photosynthesis reactions


Using ultra-rapid lasers, researchers have created the first “movie” of photosynthesis chemical reactions that shows exactly how fast they happen. The finding proves that a key process that strips electrons from water, starting the conversion of solar into chemical energy, happens more quickly than previously thought. “We can now see how nature has optimized the physics of converting light energy to fuel,” says study author Jasper van Thor. The work could help scientists improve artificial photosynthesis to produce biofuels more efficiently.

The researchers from Imperial College London wanted to find out exactly how fast the so-called Photosystem II enzyme reaction works. That process, which splits water into hydrogen and oxygen, was thought to be the bottleneck, or slowest part of photosynthesis. In contrast, the first part of photosynthesis, where light is harvested by an “antenna complex” of proteins and clorophyll molecules, was thought to be faster.

Can we mimic it or tune it to make artificial photosynthesis more efficient? These questions, and many others, can now be explored.

Slow and fast are relative terms here, because the process actually happens in picoseconds, or trillionths of a second. To measure it more precisely, scientists first created crystals of the Photosystem II enzyme, then zapped them with a sophisticated laser system. The process, which was developed in collaboration with the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, is described in an earlier paper.

Using infrared spectroscopy, the team was able to measure electron movements across tiny parts of the system to see when energy was transferred. Their measurements proved that the water-splitting process happens more quickly than the antenna complex light harvesting, a result that upends decades of teachings. “We can now show that what I was lectured as an undergraduate in the 1990s is no longer supported,” van Thor says.

Furthermore, the team has essentially created a movie of key parts of the photosynthesis process, which lasts just a few nanoseconds (billionths of a second). This lets scientists understand what the molecule is doing in very small time slices during the process, helping them better understand and even improve it. “Can we mimic it or tune it to make artificial photosynthesis more efficient? These questions, and many others, can now be explored,” says van Thor.

How to get rid of unwanted Christmas presents


We’ve all been there. Christmas day is done and dusted and along with a pile of fabulous pressies and a turkey and Christmas pudding hangover, you’ve got a few gifts that are so terrible, you know you’ll never use them.

Whether it’s a pair of novelty socks, a smoothie maker or a Mamma Mia Blu-ray, you’d rather have the cash. It may sound rather Scrooge-like and far be it from us to put a dampener on the festive spirit but in these troubled times we could all use a little extra wonga.

It’s better that someone should get some use out of our presents rather than them sitting on a shelf gathering dust, right?

We’ve put together a handy guide for converting your unwanted gifts into cash. Bah Humbug.

eBay

Ah, eBay. The handy online auction site that’s absolutely perfect for getting rid of unwanted pressies. Somewhat depressingly, post-Christmas is one of the busiest times of year for the site, with misers the world over listing their unwanted gifts before the leftover turkey has even been scoffed.

All you need to do is set up a listing along with a picture of the item (many pictures for items are provided for you by eBay), then select a ‘reserve’ or minimum price that you want your item to sell for. You can wait to see how the auction pans out or offer a ‘Buy it Now’ option for impatient bargain hunters. In some instance using a smartphone you can simply scan the item barcode and eBay will fill in all the details for you. If you’re a new user, then make sure you come up with a suitably covert user ID otherwise your money-making schemes could come crashing down around your ears if a loved one sees the carefully selected present that they bought for you turning up on eBay. You have been warned.

Amazon

Remember that eBay isn’t the only place to sell your stuff online. Many retail websites offer a sellers section, with the best example being Amazon Marketplace.

Listing items is straightforward and Amazon takes care of a lot of the admin for you so all you have to do is make sure that you send the item out once someone has bought it. Again, be careful what you choose as your public ID as you don’t want any eagle-eyed relatives spotting your poor unwanted pressies on there.

Gumtree

Established in 2000, Gumtree was previously a London-based site for people that had just moved to the city. It’s now one of the UK’s biggest local classified ad sites and also operate across several other countries. Not only is this a great place for looking for homes to rent and buy, or jobs and services, it’s also a good place to sell unwanted goods (for free) and maybe even pick up a bargain yourself.

The idea is to meet local buyers face to face to cut out postage cost. This site is well suited to bigger items such as furniture. If you’re going to sell on Gumtree then make sure that you stick to the site’s safety tips such as exchanging the money and goods at the same time and taking a friend with you to meet up with the buyer.

Facebook/Twitter

The big boys of social networking – Facebook and Twitter – have fast become the first port of call for gathering information. Need to know the footie score? Tweet it. Want to know who’s going to the party tonight? Update your status.

This is also a great way to let your friends and followers know that you’ve got goods for sale or maybe even some stuff to swap or give away for free. Facebook also recently launched Facebook Marketplace, making it even easier to sell your unwanted gifts. Just be careful that the person that gave you the unwanted present in the first place isn’t on there or you could land yourself in hot water.

  • What is Facebook Marketplace and how can you use it to buy and sell?

Charity shops

If you’re feeling bad about getting rid of your unwanted pressies but you want to retain a little self-respect, then why not donate your gifts to a charity?

Your local charity shop will be more than happy to accept anything that you don’t want, as long as it’s in good condition (and it’s nothing dodgy or illegal, of course). By giving your goods to a charity shop, you may not benefit financially but at least you know that someone who’s less well off than yourself will get themselves a bargain and a charity will get the profits. You can look up your local charity shops here.

Regifting

Regifting may be a ghastly word, both in the sense of heartlessly giving away presents and in the sense of using the word ‘gift’ as a verb, but it can be a handy way of clearing out those unwanted pressies. Not only does this free your home from stuff that you don’t want, but you’ll also save money on buying new presents for people.

It goes without saying you should make sure that you don’t ‘regift’ your item to the person that gave it to you, or anyone that they live with or see on a regular basis. Also, make sure that the gift is still in pristine condition and that you re-wrap it and use a new label.

A word of warning…

We’re not suggesting that you immediately offload all of your presents the second you’ve finished your Christmas pud. Hopefully most of your presents will be accepted with good grace and a smile on your face, even if they weren’t exactly the 55-inch 4K OLED TV that you were after.

Make sure you think carefully before ditching any of your pressies, and if you are going to sell or swap them, be discrete and considerate of your nearest and dearest’s feelings. You don’t want your Great Aunt Mabel spotting the Rudolph socks that she spent half her pension on through the local charity shop window now, do you?

A new ‘Double Dragon’ game is on its way next month


One of the first entries in your 2017 calendar should be the release date of a 30th Anniversary entry in the Double Dragon series. Arc System Works acquired the rights to the series last year, and just announced that Double Dragon IV will be released January 30th on the PS4 and Steam platforms. Despite being the first new update since 2012’s Double Dragon Neon release and first update of any kind since Double Dragon Trilogy, its trailer flashes the classic side-scrolling beat ’em up action this series has been known for since it started as a coin-op in 1987.

According to a press release, three developers from the original game are helping to create it. The original planner, designer and composer from the arcade game are involved, which should help keep the classic feel going. The Japanese price of the game is listed as 800 yen ($6.84 US), so it shouldn’t be too hard on the pockets once it’s released.

CyanogenMod website unreachable, project will continue as LineageOS


When Cyanogen announced its services and nightly builds were ending, it said the CyanogenMod open source project would continue on. However, after the latter made a blog post calling the action a “death blow” for CyanogenMod, the DNS routing for its website went away and it has been unreachable. The open source team also said in its blog post that it would continue the project, and a new website indicates we’ll get more information on its follow-up, LineageOS, on Tuesday.

Comment from discussion PSA: cyanogenmod.org services shutdown.

In a post on Reddit, the team also notes that its code review and merge process should be available by then, so that work on the operating system can go on. Team member haggertk calls LineageOS “a 100% bare fork — LineageOS source == CyanogenMod source,” while another member said the plan is for users to be able to update from CyanogenMod without reformatting. We’ll find out more information soon, but at least now it should be easier to tell the difference between whatever Cyanogen Inc. becomes and what CyanogenMod/LineageOS is.

NASA uses space laser to study polar ocean plants


Usually when you think NASA you conjure up images of Mars and space stations. But the agency also conducts important climate research. One of those projects is the Cloud-Aerosol LIdar with Orthogonal Polarization (CALIOP) aboard the Cloud-Aerosol Lidar and Infrared Pathfinder Satellite Observation (CALIPSO) satellite that measures plankton levels through clouds.

Previously, NASA could only measure plankton levels from satellites when it could see the reflection of the sun on the ocean. But the Lidar-based system doesn’t rely on outside light sources to see the amount of sea plants. Instead it can see vegetation day or night and even through some light clouds.

“CALIOP was a game-changer in our thinking about ocean remote sensing from space. We were able to study the workings of the high-latitude ocean ecosystem during times of year when we were previously completely blind.” said Chris Hostetler, a Langley research scientist.

The researchers have been able to study the variations in plankton with CALIOP since 2006. “The take home message is that if we want to understand the biological food web and production of the polar systems as a whole, we have to focus both on changes in ice cover and changes in the ecosystems that regulate this delicate balance between predators and prey,” said Michael Behrenfeld, a marine plankton expert at Oregon State University in Corvallis.

AI was everywhere in 2016


At the Four Seasons hotel in South Korea, AlphaGO stunned grandmaster Lee Sodol at the complex and highly intuitive game of Go. Google’s artificially intelligent system defeated the 18-time world champion in a string of games earlier this year. Backed by the company’s superior machine-learning techniques, AlphaGo had processed thousands and thousands of Go moves from previous human-to-human games to develop its own ability to think strategically.

The AlphaGo games, watched by millions of viewers on YouTube, revealed the ever-increasing power and progress of AI. This contest between man and machine was not the first of its kind. But this time it was more than just a computer beating a human at a game. AlphaGo not only conquered the complexities of the game but seemed to surpass the intelligence of the grandmaster across the board game. The unpredictable moves that shocked Sodol (and the world) revealed AlphaGo’s ability to think and respond creatively. It is the kind of intelligence that has long been an asset for Hollywood’s all-powerful versions of AI, but one that had been unattainable for computers in reality.

That victory marked a shift in the trajectory of AI this year. The technology that has long been aimed at replicating human intelligence now seems to be paying attention to human patterns and behaviors. Recent advances in deep learning have enabled that kind of insight, but it’s not limited to beating humans at games. In 2016, AI broke out of the confines of research labs to transform the way we live, communicate and even conserve the planet. Chatbots popped up in group texts. Personal assistants invaded our homes. Cognitive systems are detecting cancer. Bots are writing movie scripts. And car makers are gearing up to unleash a bevy of autonomous vehicles onto public roads.

For a few years now, a cohort of mobile assistants like Siri, Cortana and the new Google Assistant has been getting people in the habit of talking to their devices so they can spend less time swiping screens. But now, these personal assistants are swiftly moving past the basics of reminders and internet searches. They are invading our homes as efficient helpers.

One of the highlights in the talking-devices category this year was Google Home. The voice-activated speaker, designed for personal spaces, joined the ranks of Amazon Echo. These at-home digital helpers carry the same promise of efficiency as their smartphone counterparts, but they seem to have a different agenda. They are efficient assistants that not only want to understand human needs, but predict them to create an environment of reliance and reciprocity.

That kind of environment, depicted in movies like Her and Iron Man, is essential to the next stage of human-machine interaction where assistants can turn off the lights in a room for you and also, one day, tell you when you’re out of diapers for your child. Mark Zuckerberg’s Jarvis, a Morgan Freeman-voiced AI helper he recently built for his own house, is a glimpse into the kind of personalized AI that will coexist in the connected homes of the future.

The ability to comprehend humans is integral to AI in all its forms, present and future. With the recent boost in speech-recognition and natural-language-processing techniques, machines are getting closer to understanding humans than ever before. With companies like Tesla, GM, BMW, Fiat Chrysler all rolling out autonomous vehicles, the ability to communicate with these moving machines will play a pivotal role in making the experience stress-free.

Smart cars promise to bring down the frequency and casualties of road accidents. They are also expected to boost mobility for the elderly and people with disabilities. This summer, that promise came under scrutiny for a fatal Tesla crash. But a couple of months later, when a Missouri-based lawyer suffered a pulmonary embolism while driving on the freeway, the autopilot in his Tesla Model X reportedly drove him to the hospital and saved his life.

Just as the narrative started to shift back to the benefits of self-driving cars, Uber launched its semiautonomous fleet of Volvos in Pittsburgh. The ride-sharing company also rolled out its autonomous car service in San Francisco this month, but city officials swiftly cracked down on the company because it did not have the state permits required to operate the cars. This week, Uber pulled back from the city and is now looking to redeploy the vehicles in Arizona.

Uber’s antics aside, the enthusiasm around self-driving vehicles has been palpable. Whether we see AI increasing mobility for people who need the autonomous services the most is still a thing of the future. But the one area where AI is already pitching in is medicine.

With troves of raw medical data being gathered through computers and personal devices across the world, doctors are increasingly turning to algorithms and cognitive computing systems for help. While access to the data is transforming the way doctors diagnose diseases, the sheer volume of data has made it virtually impossible for doctors to process the information for a timely diagnosis.

It’s also increasingly hard for a doctor to match the information intake of a computer brain like IBM’s Watson that has the ability to absorb every medical journal that has ever been written. In addition to already deploying Watson in major hospitals, IBM recently partnered with more than a dozen cancer institutes to train its cognitive system. The exposure will enable Watson to find personalized treatments for patients who have already tried existing treatments with no success.

The diagnostic potential of AI also extended to the field of ophthalmology. According to a study, Google’s deep learning algorithm was able to detect diabetic retinopathy through photographs. The most common method for determining signs of diabetic eye disease, which reportedly affects about 415 million people across the world, is to have a doctor examine the images of the back of the eye for lesions. But a recent experiment revealed that Google’s algorithm was able to recognize the lesions as accurately as the doctors. While the company points out that a lot more work needs to be done in this area, the initial results reveal that AI assistance could speed up a doctor’s diagnoses drastically.

This year, AI also pitched in to save the planet. From water conservation in California to saving tuna in Palau, AI was deployed in environmental efforts across the world. OmniEarth, an environmental-analytics organization, used Watson to map and classify irrigated and nonirrigated areas through satellite images to improve water conservation in California. IBM’s AI was able to process the images 40 times faster than humans who were tasked with the job.

The Nature Conservancy, a global nonprofit, also turned to machine learning as it ramped up efforts in the Pacific region of Palau to monitor fishing activities. The organization already equipped a fleet of ships with cameras and GPS devices to hold fisheries accountable for their catch. But last month, it launched a competition to find an algorithm that can speed up the process of identifying sharks, tuna or turtles that might be brought on board the ships.

The presence of AI was felt and needed in both personal spaces and far-off reaches of the Earth. But it was not entirely unexpected. The preoccupation to make computers think like humans has been evident for decades and 2016 was as much a culmination of those efforts as an indication of things to come.

Despite the constant debate around the dangers of AI, with every new development machines become more capable of human thought. And the concept of intelligence is no longer limited to personal assistance or medical-speak. For a technology that’s built on human culture, it’s bound to tackle avenues of creativity.

Benjamin, a self-improving neural network, wrote its own short sci-fi movie in June. The AI, which is good at text recognition, was fed human screenplays so it could learn to write a script. The film, titled Sunspring, turned out to be an incoherent mess, but it reportedly picked up on the repetitions and patterns of human writing.

The scriptwriting AI might not be ready for the film circuit, but it seemed to follow in the footsteps of AlphaGo whose stunning victory in Korea already revealed AI’s capacity for creative intelligence. While none of the machines have made their mark as filmmakers or musicians yet, it’s not for lack of trying.

Harry Potter and the Cursed Child

Harry Potter and the Cursed Child is the script for a two-part play based on a new original story J.K. Rowling helped to write. The book was released in July as the eighth story in the Harry Potter series, nearly a decade after the final Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows book was released.

harry-potter-cursed-child
The story begins 19 years after the events of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. Harry Potter is now an overworked Ministry of Magic employee, a husband, and father of three school-aged children, including his youngest son Albus, who struggles with the weight of a family legacy he never wanted.

Harry Potter and the Cursed Child is available in a digital format for $14.99 on the iBooks Store [Direct Link] for iPhone, iPad, and Mac.

Texture — Unlimited Access to 200+ Magazines

texture-magazinesTexture is an iPhone and iPad app that provides unlimited access to over 200 of the world’s most popular magazines for $9.99 per month. New users who purchase a subscription as an in-app purchase get a 7-day full trial.

Some of the magazines available include People, Vogue, Rolling Stone, National Geographic, GQ, Sports Illustrated, Wired, Maxim, Men’s Health, GQ, Bloomberg Businessweek, ESPN, Entertainment Weekly, and many others.

Magazines can be read on up to five devices per subscription, including offline by tapping download on a specific issue. Both new issues and a searchable archive of over 5000 past issues are available. A full catalog of available magazines, additional details, and sign-up promotions can be found on the Texture website.

Texture is a free download on the App Store [Direct Link] for iPhone and iPad. The app won a Best of 2016 award on the App Store.

Super Mario Run

Super Mario Run launched on the App Store for iPhone and iPad ten days ago, becoming the first official smartphone and tablet game featuring the iconic Nintendo character. The game is free to try for the first three courses, while unlocking all 24 courses in the World Tour requires a one-time $10 in-app purchase.

The game is a timed runner designed for one-handed gameplay. Mario runs forward automatically as players tap to jump, collect coins, pounce on Goombas, avoid obstacles, and reach the flagpole at the end of each course before the timer runs out. In the end, Mario must rescue Princess Peach from Bowser.

A challenge mode called Toad Rally allows players to compete with friends or strangers to see who can obtain the highest score while performing stylish moves. Toad Rally requires Rally Tickets, which can be acquired in a variety of ways, such as clearing worlds or through bonus games in your own kingdom.


Meanwhile, a Kingdom Builder mode enables players to create their own kingdom and customize it using coins and toads gathered in Toad Rally. Super Mario Run has since gained a new Friendly Run mode similar to Toad Rally, but items, coins, or new toads collected do count toward a player’s public totals in this mode.

Super Mario Run has been downloaded over 40 million times, but some players have criticized the $10 cost to unlock the full game due to limited gameplay. But, in the game’s defense, there are technically 72 courses given players have to collect pink, purple, and black challenge coins on each of the 24 courses.

Super Mario Run is available on the App Store [Direct Link] for iPhone and iPad. An always-on Wi-Fi or cellular connection is required.

Apps on Sale

A number of popular iPhone and iPad apps are on sale through the holidays, including Day One, Tweetbot, Alto’s Adventure, Byword, djay Pro, Duet Display, NBA 2K17, Limbo, SteamWorld Heist, Severed, Battleheart Legacy, PCalc, Pennies, Drafts, Don’t Starve: Pocket Edition, Broken Age, and many others.

app-store-holiday-sales-2016
More deals, including discounts on Mac apps, can be found on AppShopper or in the App Santa promotion, which runs through December 26. TouchArcade has also finalized its list of the 100 best games available this year. As a reminder, no new or updated apps will appear on the App Store until after December 27.
