Did you know Tamar Yehoshua, Slacks Chief Product Officer, is speaking atTNW2020this year? Check out their session on Human-centricity: building products with customershere. If companies had faces, the months of lockdown would show a decades worth of age. But as they say, with age (and wrinkles) comes wisdom. Weve written at length abouthow businesses have respondedto the global crisis. Now the question were asking ourselves is: What will this change in the long run?...

But the introduction of social distancing measures this year suddenly placed major barriers on movement. But what does this actually mean? 40% off TNW Conference! As he explained, about 50% of freight trucks on the road are empty or partially empty. This is not only extremely inefficient, its also contributing to higher congestion and pollution rates. It was time for some much-needed tech disruption. However, during the lockdown period, everything changed....

The wireless buds market is on a surge. These buds are much cheaper alternatives to Airpods for Android phone owners. But dont worry, they dont look like copycats. OnePlus buds are thicker and the open area where youd tap to perform gestures is bigger. Vivos buds have a sleeker, curved design towards the end of the bud. My colleagueNapier didnt like the fit of the OnePlus buds, but I had no problems with the fit....

Im sick of black and gray tech. All I see when I look around is darkness punctuated by flashing lights. Its like my home is the most boring space ship ever made. Darth Vader would love it here. Well, he would have. The most exciting part of the collection is the excellentG733 wireless gaming headset($129). Not only is it gorgeous, but its a worthy and well-featured addition to any gamers gear lineup....

And they asked Facebook to show it specifically to people who have African American multicultural affinity. Facebook, apparently, complied. Federal law prohibits employers from discriminating on the basis of age and race, including in advertising open jobs. (Tendernesss CEO, Julio Fernandez, didnt respond to The Markups requests for comment.) This is not the first time Facebook has been accused of allowing discrimination on its platform.

So you like our media brand Growth Quarters? I know what you might think: Not me. Im not the kind of person to burnout! I know how to manage my stress. I know how to manage challenges. Im in the control of my life! Burnout is only for the others… till it hit you. I was exhausted, angry, and I had strong physical symptoms, like dizziness and headaches. I had to stop working for months to come back to a normal state of mind....

So you like our media brand Shift? Many countries, including the UK, are focussing on transport and the automotive industry. Utilizing more renewable energy and increasing dependence on electric vehicles should see a decline in carbon emissions. In 2018, transport accounted for 33% of the UKs carbon dioxide emissions. This is in a bid to achieve the target of emitting virtually zero carbon by 2050. 40% off TNW Conference! The light blue numbers represent the highest-scoring locations, and the dark blue represents the lowest scoring ones....

But, thanks to Xiaomi, that might soon be a thing of the past. And its all down to under-screen cameras. Before we get there though, lets talk about phone design a little. When we began our journey, bezels (the thick lines around phones) were everywhere. Just consider the iPhone 3GS as an example: But bezels stopped being cool somewhere around 2016 or 2017. 40% off TNW Conference! This screen real estate drive led to something horrible though: selfie-camera experimentation....

It seemed only fitting. A massive planetesimal, smashing into Earth. The asteroid does not pose a threat to life on Earth. Most likely, it will sail harmlessly past our planet. So, whats the story? Our story begins a couple of years ago, on November 3, 2018. The near-Earth asteroid Eros, which is thousands of times larger than 2018 VP1. It’s free, every week, in your inbox. The asteroid was very faint, and hard to spot against the background stars....

I never took a proper vacation for most of my life. Even when I was traveling, usually to see family or friends, I was on. Even on the weekends, or in the evenings, I was on. Even when I went out for drinks, I was on. The only time I switched off completely was when I went to a meditation retreat. It’s free, every week, in your inbox. I averaged four hours of sleep a night at one point....

I love watching movies. A controversial and brave statement, I know. Anyway, since the end of last year, this habit has accelerated. Its hard to know why. 40% off TNW Conference! First off, quality. What actually is 4K? Without getting too weighed down, 4K is a display resolution. Normally, this is described by stating the number of pixels acrossthe screens width and heightrespectively. For example, the 1080p resolution is for screens that display1,920 pixels horizontallyand1,080 vertically....

A bit of advice before you proceed: 40% off TNW Conference! But if that was true, you wouldnt be reading this post right now. And you wouldnt have read that article either. What your audience actually doesnt want to read: mediocre posts with bland info. The more effort you put in,the better the results. Infographics People cant get enough ofinfographics. Theyre handy cheat-sheets of stats that make you seem like you know what youre talking about....

Dark mode seems to be here to stay. Initially, it was mainly used by developers in their code editors. Now, its all over the place: mobile, desktops, and now even the web. Supporting dark mode is turning from a niche to a must-have. Of course, it depends on your niche. When it comes to dark mode for websites there are multiple approaches. Lets get started with the first option. Joke aside, it consists of one line of CSS....
