I would go more for the slurped data of the users, and the algorithms to sort them out and save it in the correct internal profiles
all what they offer plus all what they take and save from us... that has to be a HUGE amount of data.

They should put all that stuff in The Cloud, so they wouldn't have to worry about it.

I wonder how many spoken languages and programming languages those MIT neuroscientists have learned in their life...
I did several of each, and it is not even close...

C++ and PHP have far more high-severity security flaws than programming languages like JavaScript and Python. Why is the entire JavaScript specification on this list?
Or PHP/Python/VB. Pick your least favourite.

Who'd of thought that the languages used for secure systems had the most security related issues? It's a real mystery.

We should just re-write openssl with JavaScript + Node.js. Problem solved.

Study reveals how the brain reacts when we encounter a person or object out of their normal context for the first time. Findings demonstrate how the memory system strives for efficiency and only encodes absolutely essential information. But of course I've told you that before

Light-emitting diodes—LEDs—can do way more than illuminate your living room. These light sources are useful microelectronics too. Good news for those people that like to trick out their machines with blinkenlights

Quote: The LED sends a pulse of light toward your face, and a timer in the phone measures how long it takes that light to reflect back to the phone
The guy has no clue what he's talking about. At 1 nanosecond per foot, that timer would have to measure in the picoseconds, which I believe (from my work in sub-nanosecond laser range gating in the 1980's) requires equipment that will not fit in your phone.[^]
More likely, there's simply a narrow band optical sensor that looks for the reflection.
Yup. Infrared proximity sensor.[^]

There's an interesting video floating around Youtube on the Applied Science channel you might like.
In it, the host gets a 3 pin laser diode module and uses it to perform distance measurements.
It involves the laser interfering with itself and modulating the signal produced by the integrated photodetector.

How long before the blinking lights on one board start communicating with the light detecting diodes of another board and start communicating in Morse Code or other more covert signaling ... all above any scrutiny by the OS or BIOS?
