Russia now has an ‘inspector satellite’ that could chase down or destroy other orbiting spacecraft November 18, 2014 at 1:34 pm
According to Earth’s dedicated team of satellite observers, Russia is developing a satellite that can chase down other satellites. Obviously, such an ability could be used for the forces of good, such as repairing or refueling other spacecraft — but the rest of the world is worried that Russia might be looking to blow up other satellites, or to get close enough that it can take photos of classified designs or eavesdrop on communications.
Intel will combine PC and mobile divisions: A bold move that might spell the end for Atom November 18, 2014 at 11:23 am
Intel will combine its PC and mobile chip divisions, according to an email sent to employees by CEO Brian Krzanich. There’s no word on how this might affect Intel’s future PC and mobile products, but presumably this might be the end of either the Atom or Core line of chips — which, to be honest, is probably a sensible move given how the latest Atom and ultra-mobile Core chips are fairly close in terms of performance and power consumption.

MIT can now use E. coli DNA tape recorders for living and replicating data storage November 17, 2014 at 3:13 pm
Cold hard storage capacity like that is great, but what if that kind of power could be integrated with something more alive — something like a single cell, or for that matter, integrated into every cell.
Researchers at MIT’s Synthetic Biology Center have just succeeded writing multiple analog streams of real-time environmental data into the genetically transformed hardware of a distributed population of bacterial cells. Living, breathing computers like this are a tremendous advance over the simple encoding of arbitrary digital data with DNA microchips.
