It had been thought that Apple would only have two suppliers to choose from when it came to its rumored switch to OLED displays for at least some iPhones next year: Samsung and LG. A third contender emerged in June, when it was reported that Sharp’s OLED panel business would be up-and-running by next year, and it now seems possible that Japan Display will also be in the running. We learned back in August that Japan Display was seeking a government bailout to help it invest in OLED manufacturing capabilities, and the WSJ today reports that the company is now in ‘advanced talks’ for an infusion of around 75B Yen ($700M)....

In the previous chapter where we discussed decisions, we made the computer think logically. Combine that with loops and we have an almost humanoid program that can think, work, and repeat the steps throughout the day. What are loops?

As the decades have passed and Bruce Wayne has faced impossible odds, horrifying monsters, and countless no-win scenarios, his methods have changed–and now Batman’s violence in movies stands accused of crossing a line. The idea of Batman killing, or even using lethal force that could result in death is equal to heresy for some comic fans. Bruce Wayne, the caped crusader, the dark knight–resorting to killing and breaking his ONE rule to separate him from his enemies?...

A study by the University of Missouri demonstrated that separating people from their iPhones not only causes anxiety, but also reduces cognitive performance.
