Breakthrough Quantum Computing Chip Sets New Standards for Supercomputing

In a monumental leap for the world of technology, a pioneering quantum computing chip has shattered performance barriers, paving the way for an era of computing power previously thought to be science fiction. Developed by a collaboration of leading tech companies and research institutions, this quantum computing breakthrough is set to redefine the landscape of computing, enabling unprecedented speeds and capabilities that could revolutionize industries across the board. Key Highlights of the Quantum Computing Breakthrough: Unprecedented Processing Power: Traditional computers use bits to process information, represented as 0s and 1s. Quantum computers, on the other hand, leverage quantum bits or qubits, which can exist in a superposition of both 0 and 1 states simultaneously. This inherent parallelism allows quantum computers to perform complex calculations at speeds that would be inconceivable for classical computers.

Google Photos getting this new feature for Android users

Google is making a small yet important change to one of its most-used apps and services on the web, Google Photos. The firm is making a change in the ‘Albums’ section of the app. And this is limited to Android versions only for now. As mentioned by 9to5Google, the firm is now letting Android users tweak the arrangement of the albums. It is said that this feature is not a part of an OTA update but a server-side update.

Although the app arranges album in reverse chronological order with the ‘Most recent photo’ being on top. Now, you get two additional options of “Last modified” and “Album title” in which you can arrange the albums. Once selected, the option will be seen in Blue besides the ‘Album’ section. Although a basic feature, this makes a difference when it comes to long scrolling to find an album. You can still find the album from the search bar but this is meant to improve the scrolling experience.

Since this is a server-side update, not all the Android users will get this feature at once. It is also not sure if this feature will be there in iOS. As mentioned by 9to5 Google, the new feature is seen in the app versions 4.28 and 4.29.

Google also seems to be preparing two new features for its Photos app. According to developer @wongmjane on Twitter, the firm will introduce an account switcher and drawing tool support. The account switcher feature is said to work pretty much like it does for Gmail. As the name suggests, it is the swipe-to-switch feature will allow smartphone users to swipe (up or down) on their Google Account avatar in the top-right corner to switch between the Google accounts. The drawing tool will allow users to edit pictures with drawing tools, including a pen in seven different colours, a highlighter and also a text caption creator.
