The Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 and S7+ wanna give the iPad Pro an Android beating

The Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 and S7+ wanna give the iPad Pro an Android beating Galaxy Tab S7+ Both tabs are almost identical on the spec sheet save a few areas such as the screen and the battery. However, when we compare these to the iPad, we have to keep in mind that Apple’s A-series of chips are far more powerful than Qualcomm’s top-of-the-line processors. Plus, the iPad’s app ecosystem is more mature than Android’s apps for tablets....

In high school I majored in computer science and chemistry. While computer science was always my biggest passion, chemistry just intrigued me. I was drawn to those basic rules that determine the world, as we know it. 8 months into my entrepreneurial roller coaster, I’m starting to realize we should be following some basic rules of science and chemistry: The Startup Atom An atom is the basic unit of chemistry. It consists of a positively charged core (the atomic nucleus) which contains protons and neutrons and it maintains a number of electrons to balance the positive charge in the nucleus....

The science of why lockdown barely affected global temperatures

The science of why lockdown barely affected global temperatures Climate and chemistry Sulphur dioxide (SO₂) gas is mainly produced in industrial processes that burn coal. In the atmosphere, it reacts to form white sulphate aerosols. These particles offset some of the heating caused by greenhouse gases such as CO₂ by reflecting sunlight back into space, in a process known as global dimming. If SO₂ were the only pollutant whose emissions fell, we would expect Earth’s temperature to increase....
