It’s “the beautiful game”—apart from those times when it’s not.

Atkeson’s house is littered with pictures and sculptures of fish and robots. So many robots. He and his wife Jessica, also a robotics professor at Carnegie Mellon, create sculptures of robots in their spare time out of found items—trashcans, cogs, antennae; anything they can get their hands on that might make something look remotely robot-shaped—as if they did not spend enough time around robots at work.

Johnny describes himself as a person constantly in motion, whether he’s talking about his childhood in West Virginia or his job working 18-hour days delivering bread.

Snap popped, and now it seems to be crackling.

When reviewing the new iPad Pro, I came across a little dongle that Apple produced to make charging its stylus, the Pencil, a bit easier:

I’m trying to write this review of the new 10.5-inch iPad Pro using only the iPad itself and Amtrak wifi. It’s a struggle, to say the least.

It’s a sight for sore eyes.

The death of the internal combustion engine might be just down the road. Volvo announced today that, starting in 2019, it will no longer launch any new cars with gasoline engines.

Ten years ago, thousands of regular people around the world listened to a stern man in a mock turtleneck talk about a phone and decided to wait outside for hours on end to buy one.

If you’re fine with living your digital life a little bit on the edge, you can now download the latest versions of Apple’s mobile operating system, iOS 11.

After three years and three phones, it seems that the iPhone is finally getting a facelift.

Eventually, Snapchat is going to run out of hand gestures.

“But how’s the camera?”

Goodbye, sweet Firefly.

In an interview with Bloomberg, Apple CEO Tim Cook spoke publicly for the first time about the company’s work in autonomous vehicles. Apple is traditionally very tight-lipped about projects that it’s working on before they’re ready for release, but a string of reports dating back to early 2015, as well as more recent public fillings have suggested that the company had something connected to self-driving cars in the works.

How often is too often to buy a new video game console?

Over the past week, thousands of designers, developers, and engineers, along with a few reporters, crammed into concrete convention center to hear what’s next for Apple at the company’s annual developer conference. Many went to learn how to build better apps and programs for iPhones, iPads, and Macs; some went to network with like-minded people similarly hoping to become the next Silicon Valley success story. Others just wanted to see what aluminum-cased objects Apple will be selling in the near future.

Google’s parent Alphabet has agreed to sell two of its robotics subsidiaries, Boston Dynamics and Schaft, to Japanese telecom company SoftBank.

Amid a string of high-profile announcements at the keynote address of Apple’s annual developer conference, where the company introduced a slew of new laptops, computers, and a new smart speaker, there was one small announcement that could have a profound affect on how most people surf the web.

For a while, Apple has been trying to convince us that the iPad could be a viable replacement for the bulky, virus-prone laptops that we’ve been carting around to work, school, and sometimes vacations for decades. But though the iPad has been powerful and light from the outset, it’s never really offered the true functionality of laptop, nor has it ever felt as essential to own as the iPhone, which seems indispensable at literally any moment you are not in front of another computer.

Apple’s annual developer conference felt especially like a show for consumers this year, with announcements of seven laptop updates, a new iMac Pro desktop computer, a new iPad, and a new home smart speaker called the HomePod. But Apple also had something for developers: new versions of operating systems for the iPhone, iPad, Watch, and Apple computers, which will be available to consumers this Fall.

This year will mark the 10th anniversary of the release of the iPhone, which helped cement Apple’s position as one of the most profitable and successful technology companies of all time. In recent years, some have criticized the company, which routinely generates between $40 billion and $80 billion in revenue each quarter, of not being able to break out beyond the iPhone. Newer products, including the Apple Watch, have not yet seen the explosive sales that the iPhone has. But many expect 2017 to be a bumper year for new Apple products to cap off its successful decade.

The era of flying selfies may be right around the corner.
