New calculations point to an age of 11.4 billion years rather than the generally accepted number of 13.7 billion years. Now it's going to get carded at the bar

Give or take a billion years, does it matter to any of us? We are more concerned about whether our code works well.

Next thing you know they'll take off another 11.399994 billion years, and I'll hear a lot of "I told you so"s.

New research suggests rats are capable of learning to play hide-and-go-seek with humans—and they appeared to legitimately enjoy the game. Getting them to say, 'Olly olly oxen free' was more difficult
For our American friends - don't worry, your tax dollars weren't wasted. This was from a German lab.

Although they are rats and not mice I wonder if they have named one of them Algernon?

Simjacker attack abuses STK and S@T Browser technologies installed on some SIM cards. I hope it doesn't work with landlines - I'd hate to be tracked

Solar panels are great for powering devices during the day. But they don’t work after the sun goes down. Now, a new technology that takes advantage of the cold darkness of space may do the trick. Time to make a "dark energy" joke
Actually, it sounds like a Peltier generator to me, but I guess the difference here is the wavelength emitted?

A lot of programming languages these days feature lambda functions, or what I would be just as happy to call anonymous functions. They're not completely anonymous - they just put on a pair of glasses and no one recognizes them

This is just a mess. A low level language having high level features is just wrong.

Apple apparently isn't settling on just Face ID and Touch ID for biometric identification, and is continuing work on identifying a palm placed on a device to authenticate a user. Does it involve you giving them your credit card info? Phrenology?

Google agreed to pay close to 1 billion euros ($1.10 billion) to French authorities to settle a fiscal fraud probe that began four years ago in a deal that may create a legal precedent for other large tech companies present in the country. Pretty soon you'll be talking real money
That's about 2.5 days of revenue (more or less):
In the second quarter of 2019, Google's revenue amounted to 38.78 billion U.S. dollars, up from 36.17 billion U.S. dollars in the preceding quarter.
