Nothing in life is as certain as death, taxes and the relentless expansion of advertising to every conceivable digital and real-world blank canvas that revenue-hungry corporations can find. And now, coming soon to a screen near you: Ads that start playing on TV screens with content you’ve paused.

Hulu, according to a new report in Variety, plans to unveil a new ad experience next year called “pause ads.” Here’s the scenario. You’re bingeing, say, The Handmaid’s Tale. You need to pause and run to the kitchen or take a quick bathroom break. What Hulu envisions is letting an advertisement take over that paused screen.

A few weeks ago, Samsung unveiled its next-gen 8nm chip that will likely power several of the Galaxy S10 models next year. But it’s also likely that the next Snapdragon chip from Qualcomm will power the remaining Galaxy S10 models. It’s something Samsung has done for years with both the Galaxy S and Note lines.

Qualcomm briefly teased the Snapdragon 855 a few months ago, with a proper announcement set for later this week during Qualcomm’s annual Snapdragon Tech Summit. But some of the chip’s specifications were posted online before Qualcomm’s announcement, spoiling the surprise.

Although Apple has a policy of not releasing unit sales for the Apple Watch, it’s no secret that the device has continued to grow in popularity with each passing year. Especially with last year’s Apple Watch Series 3 — an update which at long last introduced cellular functionality — Apple’s wearable has slowly but surely morphed from a niche product into something of a mainstream device.

In light of that, new research data from IDC reveals that Apple during its most recent fiscal quarter shipped approximately 4.2 million Apple Watch units, a substantial increase from the estimated 2.7 million units the company is believed to have shipped during the September quarter of 2017. All told, Apple Watch shipments grew by an impressive 54% year over year.

Most of us think we have a pretty solid grasp on basic physics, and one of the assumptions we’ve come to form is that any material gets thinner as it’s stretched. It makes sense, since the same amount of material spread over a larger area would have to mean that there’s less of it in any one spot, right?

Not so fast. Researchers led by Dr. Devesh Mistry of the University of Leeds invented a new synthetic material that gets thicker as it’s being stretched. The material, which is described in detail in a new paper published in Nature Communications, is one of few that exhibit “auxetic” properties, which means they expand instead of contracting when tugged on from different directions.
