Cybersecurity And Road Signs Are Concerns For Self Driving Vehicles

1: Open Folders in a New Process If you understand processes, you might realize how this is a monumental feature for you. If you don’t understand how processes work, let’s just say that every single folder you open adds up to “explorer.exe” and doesn’t open a new instance of the application. That means that everything you’ve opened is governed by that same “explorer.exe” application. What if “explorer.exe” crashes? This would mean that everything you ever opened will have to be closed, including the taskbar, within the task manager application included in Windows....

Google Drive Vs Ms Office Web Apps

The “First Impressions” Round MS Office Web Apps Here we have software that’s made by the creator of the DOCX format itself: Microsoft. If there’s any web app that will “do it all” with documents and spreadsheets, it’s got to come from the creator of MS Office. Because of the company’s reputation, I’m inclined to put its software under more scrutiny and have a higher grade of expectations for it.

How Active Noise Cancellation Works

In this article we discuss the manner in which headphones from Bose, Beats, and other brands keep outside noise out of your ears. The Shape of Sound The most important lesson you should learn today is that sound waves follow a regular pattern.

How Massive Open Online Courses Are Trying To Change Education

Where did they come from and where are they now? Though the very first MOOCs started in 2008, the platforms that we know today (edX, Coursera, Udacity, FutureLearn, etc.) only came on the scene in 2012. Harvard and MIT were the driving forces behind edX, and Coursera came from two Stanford professors. There was some initial pessimism because of high dropout rates, the ease of cheating, an uncertain business model, a lack of accreditation, and other perennial issues in online education, but it was outweighed by the number of students who were willing to give free online courses a shot....
