Trump administration is considering lifting the trade ban on Huawei. All US companies will be allowed to sell products to Huawei after the trade agreement happens. Huawei will be able to use Google's Android OS and ARM-designed chipsets.

Thanks to both robotics and AI research, machines are getting better at their jobs everyday, and even learning to do new ones. That's great for the economy and the advancement of humanity in general. Not so much for the people they'll put out of work though. According to new research by Oxford Economics, robots will displace 8.5 percent  of manufacturing jobs around the world over the next decade.  Basically, around 20 million people factory workers and people in similar workplaces will lose their jobs by 2030. The research does say that, because robots take over more menial tasks, it opens up new jobs for the workforce. The problem is, upscaling to a new profession isn't exactly easy, especially since technical support required by these robots involves skilled labour. That's usually expensive to train in.  Because of this, though there'll be newer jobs created as fast as old ones are made redundant, it'll also create an income disparity. ...

NASA is going to Titan The space agency announced today (June 27) that the next mission in its New Frontiers line of medium-cost missions will be  Dragonfly , a rotorcraft designed to ply the skies of the huge, hazy and potentially life-hosting Saturn moon. If all goes according to plan, Dragonfly will launch in 2026 and land on  Titan  eight years later, NASA officials said. The probe will then spend at least 2.5 years cruising around the 3,200-mile-wide (5,150 kilometers) moon, making two dozen flights that cover a total of about 110 miles (180 km). The 10-foot-long (3 meters) Dragonfly will gather a variety of data at each of its stops. Such work will help scientists learn more about Titan, the only solar system body other than Earth known to  host stable bodies of liquid on its surface .   Titan's surface lakes, rivers and seas aren't composed of water, however: The frigid moon's climate system is based on hydrocarbons, in particular meth...
