Did an iPhone 5 actually kill a Chinese woman?

Posted: 15 Jul 2013 01:17 AM PDT

Take this with a grain of salt for now, but according to a story reported by two publications in China, 23 year old Ma Ai Lun died when she answered a call on her Apple iPhone 5 while it was recharging. We don’t have many details, and translation can be sketchy at the best of times, but it appears that news of the death was originally reported on “Ueybo”, China’s equivalent of Twitter.

Bug Discoveries for Sale

Posted: 14 Jul 2013 01:43 PM PDT

No, I'm not talking about actual bugs – this is a tech website you know! I'm talking about software bugs. Hackers are seeing more profitable days than ever before. Not by exploiting the software bugs they find, but by selling them. The industry of bug selling is so successful that two Italian hackers run a company called ReVuln that focuses solely on finding and selling bugs to the highest bidder.

They're primary clients are countries. ReVuln has done business with everyone from the NSA to the Revolutionary Guards of Iran. These software bugs, which are only usable for an average of 312 days before they're found, sell for six figures or more each.

An Artificial Heart with a Side of Cow

Posted: 14 Jul 2013 01:39 PM PDT

After fifteen years in development, Carmat, a Paris-based company, is starting human trials for its revolutionary new artificial heart. Artificial hearts aren't revolutionary in their own right, seeing as how they've been around for a couple decades now, but the new heart from Carmat takes a great leap forward by using cow flesh to cover all parts of the heart that would ordinarily touch human flesh.

One of the major problems with artificial hearts is the clogging caused by the machinery that touches human flesh once inside someone's chest. The cow tissue coating of Carmat's new heart should cut down or possibly even eliminate the problem altogether.

Iris Scans to Replace School IDs?

Posted: 14 Jul 2013 01:36 PM PDT

Being a college student (yes, I'm only 22) I'm well aware of the hassles of a college ID. 90% of the time you never need it, so 50% of the time, when you do need it, you don't have it. Schools across the country are looking to remedy the situation and beef up security by replacing school IDs with iris scanners.

Winthrop University is just one of many schools, ranging from elementary schools to colleges, that are employing iris scanning technology as added security measures for students, parents, and faculty. Many of these schools are putting their new systems to the test this fall and will still handout IDs to students in addition to registering their iris into the security system when the student goes through the usual ID process.

Finance Passing Technology

Posted: 14 Jul 2013 01:33 PM PDT

I know it's been five years, but does everyone still remember the economy and financial industry's collapse back in 2008. In the years since, technological corporations have taken over to make the technology industry the number one breadwinner of the U.S. economy. However finance is back on the rise and set to take back over the top spot soon.

Tech companies made up 20% of all profit back in 2012, which was just a little bit more than finance. However, if this year's first quarter reports remain consistent, Wall Street analysts are sure finance will come out ahead. Right now finance companies make up about 20% of this year's profit, which is already at $247 billion, while tech companies only made about 17% of the pie.
