Scientists say genetically modified babies will have shorter lives

%name Scientists say genetically modified babies will have shorter lives by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

In late 2018 a Chinese scientist name He Jiankui performed work that has gained him not only the criticism of his peers but also backlash from his home country’s government. He took the extraordinary step of performing genetic modification on human embryos with the intention of having them carried to term. A pair of newborns resulted from the work, marking the start of a potentially dangerous new era of genetic experimentation.

The decision to genetically modify the babies has been roundly decried by others in the genetics field, and a new paper published in Nature Medicine suggests that the modifications He made to the two children may ultimately doom them to early deaths.

The iPad just moved a big step closer to replacing your laptop

%name The iPad just moved a big step closer to replacing your laptop by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

It’s been nearly 10 years since the debut of the iPad, and we’ve had to wait for iOS 13 to arrive to finally get the kind of external storage support we’ve been asking for from the beginning. Well, it’s technically iPadOS 13 that’s bringing native support for external storage to iPad, but it doesn’t matter what Apple calls the operating system as long as it does the trick. On top of that, the Files app has received a few significant updates of its own, making the iPad a lot easier to manage when it comes to data.

This is the biggest Galaxy Note 10 leak so far

%name This is the biggest Galaxy Note 10 leak so far by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

With the Galaxy Note 10 set to launch in just 2 months, we’ve seen plenty of leaks over the past few weeks. Truth be told, however, there hasn’t been much news that has surprised us. Given Samsung’s history with Galaxy Note phones, we know that the Galaxy Note 10 will basically be a Galaxy S10 Plus with a slightly different design and S Pen stylus support. It’ll be powered by the same Snapdragon 855 and Exynos 9825 processors, it’ll have the same triple-lens rear camera system, and it’ll sport the same Dynamic AMOLED screen in a slightly different size with slightly better tuning. In fact, the only surprises so far have probably been the revelations that there will be multiple versions of the Note 10 for the first time in the history of the Galaxy Note series and the fact that the phones will support lightning-fast 45W fast charging.

While it might not be the most surprising new smartphone in the world, there are still tons of Samsung fans out there who can’t wait to get their hands on the company’s next-generation Note phone. The Galaxy Note 10 won’t make its official debut until sometime in early August, but a new leak confirms that there will be an ultra high-end version of the phone, and it even tells us exactly how powerful the new Note will be.

All the best new iOS 13 features Apple didn’t reveal at WWDC

%name All the best new iOS 13 features Apple didn’t reveal at WWDC by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

Apple executives took the stage in San Jose, California on Monday morning and gave the world its first look at the company’s next-generation software platforms. MacOS 10.15 Catalina is packed full of nifty new features, tvOS 13 gets a great new home screen, and watchOS 6 has all sorts of new features as well as new watch faces. You can read a full recap of all the biggest announcements right here, but it goes without saying that the star of the show during Apple’s WWDC 2019 keynote was iOS 13. After last year’s iOS 12 update focused almost exclusively on fixing bugs and improving performance, the company’s new iOS 13 software shifts gears back to adding new features — and needless to say, there are far too many new features in iOS 13 for Apple to have covered them all during its keynote presentation.

We’ve already detailed the 15 best new iOS 13 features coming to your iPhone and iPad later this year, and it’s a fantastic list. Highlights include the new system-wide Dark Mode users have been clamoring for, swipe typing support on the Apple keyboard, a new secure “Sign in with Apple” feature, and new call filtering capabilities that could eliminate spam calls almost entirely. But what about all the smaller iOS 13 features that Apple didn’t have time to cover on stage at WWDC 2019?

Apple’s new privacy and security features in iOS 13 and macOS will be a tough act to follow

%name Apple’s new privacy and security features in iOS 13 and macOS will be a tough act to follow by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

For years, Apple has been insisting on offering its customers strong privacy and security across its products and services. Apple has long supported end-to-end encryption, and often reminded its audiences, as well as its rivals that it doesn’t sell any user data. In recent months, Facebook and Google have both shown their willingness to improve user privacy, but both companies went after Apple to point out that privacy doesn’t have to be reserved to those people who pay more money for expensive Apple devices. Both companies, however, will not stop collecting user data for ads, which is how they’re making money.

And then came Monday’s WWDC 2019 opening keynote where Apple came out with a few exciting privacy-related features that will hard to replicate by others.
