Earlier this month a racial GIF slur managed to sneak its way into the GIPHY’s sticker library. Due to which social messaging platforms like Instagram and Snapchat had to turn off the GIPHY integrations. The reason behind this was when users got an exceptionally racist GIG to add to their pictures. Both Instagram and Snapchat had turned off GIPHY and removed GIF completely and waited for GIPSY’S action. Now Instagram has confirmed they are reactivating GIPHY as they have gone through their GIF’s and said after reviewing their library four times and will keep a regular watch on all the GIFs that get added....

In December last year, Instagram confirmed that it would bring back the chronological feed in 2022. Six years before, Instagram removed this feature, but Now Instagram has enhanced this chronological feature and made it more useful for consumers. It will be there if you are thinking about the algorithm-based feed. Instagram’s chronological feed options have arrived for iOS users. There’s no word on its availability on Android, but that should happen soon....

Instagram has for years resisted calls for a ‘regramming’ feature – the equivalent of a retweet, in which users would be able to share posts from other accounts. Currently, you can only share public Stories in which you have been mentioned, unless you use a third-party app … The company has always said that although it recognizes many people want to repost, it wants to keep your feed ‘focused on the people you know’ rather than third-party content....

Yes, it’s an impressive feat. As currently, the company’s most powerful server chips are the Scalable Processor (also known as Xeon SP), which has up to 28 cores and 56 threads. In the new line, the manufacturing technology continues to be 14 nanometers – Intel chips with 10 nanometers should only appear by the end of 2019. But what did the well-known giant chip manufacturer, of course, Intel do to significantly increase the number of cores?...

Phil Schiller at WWDC 2013 If there’s one thing we’ve learned from the latest Apple v. Samsung trial, it’s that Phil Schiller isn’t as cool, calm, and collected at Apple HQ as he appears at each Apple keynote. We’ve already seen the Apple SVP of Worldwide Marketing fret over Android marketshare and Media Arts Lab not being on par with Samsung’s advertising, and Business Insider has covered an additional email exchange revealed in the trial where an irate Phil Schiller proves he is most definitely a product of Steve Jobs....

Introduction Sometimes it happens that an attacker manages to take control of our system. Then their first step is to modify the system in such a way that the intrusion detection system is unable to perform its functions. How can we be safe from this threat? We can do only one thing, namely, we can carry out such a thing as checking the integrity of our system before it is about to start....

Apple on Thursday released the first beta of macOS Monterey 12.2 to developers, which comes with a new Music app and other improvements. Although the company hadn’t released any new betas for its other operating systems back then, an iOS 15.3 beta build has leaked through the Apple Developer website. Having Apple software leaked ahead of the official announcement is quite unusual, yet it has happened a few times before – like when the company mistakenly made public an internal HomePod firmware that led to the iPhone X leaks in 2017....

What did I miss? When did I miss it? What could it be? I simply have to know. These, and other short, blunt utterances surely echoed around the firmament as soon as Apple announced it was holding, gasp, another event on March 8. Yes, there was an invitation. No, you weren’t invited. Yes, you can watch it on YouTube. And, wait, what does “Peek Performance” mean? It’s all too easy for Apple, isn’t it?...

Adobe supports HTML and its evolution and we look forward to adding more capabilities to our software around HTML as it evolves. If HTML could reliably do everything Flash does that would certainly save us a lot of effort, but that does not appear to be coming to pass. Even in the case of video, where Flash is enabling over 75% of video on the Web today, the coming HTML video implementations cannot agree on a common format across browsers, so users and content creators would be thrown back to the dark ages of video on the Web with incompatibility issues....

Most of the Web applications are usually front-ends for databases and contain user-specific data, and use ‘sessions’ to maintain their state. A session is created once a user is authenticated by entering a username and password. This type of authentication is called form-based authentication and this is true for HTTP authentication as well. Once the authentication is successful, the user can now browse the Web application seamlessly. Secure Cookies One of the most popular ways a session is maintained is by sending a Set-Cookie HTTP response header to the browser....

Apple’s iMac Pro has begun arriving early for some customers who ordered it quickly, but it’s still not yet available for in-store pick up at Apple retail locations.

Indian manufacturing incentives proposed earlier in the year have now been confirmed. In return for manufacturing premium smartphones in India, manufacturers will qualify for incentives worth between 4% and 6% of the cost of each device. Although open to any brand, the scheme has a requirement which is expected to primarily benefit Apple and Samsung … The Production Linked Incentive (PLI) scheme applies only to smartphones selling for 15,000 Rupees ($205) or more....

The midseason premiere of Into the Badlands dropped a surprising revelation regarding the true purpose of the Gift. Throughout the series, the Gift has been utilized as a powerful weapon that turns those who possess it into Dark Ones, who are essentially ruthless killing machines. However, it appears that so many people on the show have been misusing it. AMC recently announced that Into the Badlands had been cancelled. The remaining eight episodes of season 3 began airing on Sunday with a two-night event....
