In keeping with this phenomenon, smartphones are now intertwined with the boxing scene on fight night. “It doesn’t matter who you are,” promoter Lou DiBella says. “You can be the promoter, the venue, the network that’s televising the fights. If you’re doing business in the arena, your staff is scattered all over the building. You’d be crazy to try to coordinate everything without a smartphone. It’s the only way to hear about problems as soon as they happen and deal with them in a hurry....

A tortured history of cost overruns and shoddy management made the SSC a fat target. The Department of Energy (DOE) followed the classic Washington bait-and-switch strategy for funding–come in low and pump up the price after winning approval. Introduced in 1982 at $4.4 billion, its projected cost grew to $5.9 billion in 1989 and $11 billion earlier this year. Foreign contributions that were expected to defray the expense never materialized....

The 865 has a lot that’s new, but on paper it’s the camera side that feels like the most exciting development, with the new Spectra 480 image signal processor (ISP) driving two gigapixel per second processing speeds. That’s the sort of number that’s pretty meaningless without context, so here’s the context: 865-powered phones will be able to take up to 200-megapixel photos. That’s almost double the capabilities of the biggest sensor on the market right now, the 108Mp whopper from Samsung that’s currently in just one phone, the Xiaomi Mi Note 10....
