If you have come to the conclusion that you should do more with your extra funds, let us take a look at how it can help you invest your money.

If you don't have a lot of money to get started, look at micro-investing platforms such as Acorns and Stash. Both specialize in 'fractional' investments, meaning you can buy a portion of a stock market-traded fund.

Here Comes Another Round Of Console Wars as Microsoft XBox and Sony Playstation Prepare To Release New Systems...

First, let's talk about PlayStation 4 vs. Xbox One. As you may have guessed, Sony had the advantage in terms of consoles, but what does the PlayStation 4 bring to those platforms?

The most obvious improvement by far is the inclusion of 4K resolution. The standard for delivering high definition television image and gameplay content on PlayStation 4 is 4K. The Xbox One, on the other hand, only has 2D, and as such, it cannot deliver the high-definition picture of 4K.

And even with all of the differences, the PlayStation 4 can still give you the same gaming experience that you're already used to.

That's because the DualShock 4 is included with each system, and that alone isn't enough.

The PS4 also has an exclusive mode that allows people to experience their favorite online multiplayer games, so if you want to play Titanfall or FIFA 14 (both of which would be perfect on a PS4), you can do so.

What we all have to remember is that not every online multiplayer game is going to launch on Xbox One and PS4.

For example, there's the Battle Royale mode of FIFA 14 which will be exclusive to the PlayStation 4. That's because in the console market, it's hard to have a multiplayer online shooter that doesn't also support online multiplayer.

For example, we've all played Battlefield 4 online. And in the Battlefield world, this makes perfect sense. Battlefield 4 has been around for two years, and there are other console battles, which also are going to launch on PlayStation 4.

For us, Battlefield 4 is probably the game that everyone knows will be exclusive to PS4. Now, what would be the case if Microsoft and Sony added an online multiplayer mode into the console that gamers wanted to play on PC?

We'd probably all go ahead and buy a PlayStation Then you might see a similar situation occur on PC.

While the Xbox was is the first game to ship with 4K, there are other titles expected to launch next year. Most likely, we'll see the likes of The Sims 4, Minecraft, and Gran Turismo Sport as 4K releases.

The Space Tourism Industry Will Soon Become a Reality...

With the strides SpaceX is making, people don't realize how we've suddenly ended up on the fast-track to space tourism and everyday people getting to leave the planet, for fun.

SpaceX's Elon Musk says that SpaceX is planning to launch a second company around the year 2022.

The company's chairman is planning a manned mission to Mars with the help of Mars One, an international organization that would establish a base for humans and settlers on the Mars. The Mars One plan has been met with some criticism regarding the number of future human missions they would need as well as funding to make the whole thing possible. However, the idea is still a good idea.

This is another case of a company who has shown great interest in the future of space exploration that can be quite successful and help others learn about that future. SpaceX is a good and well qualified organization to help people learn about space, especially when it's a new industry and a new type of business.

The company is also developing its own reusable rockets and is building a crewed version of the company's Falcon 9 rocket after the company bought another company, Orbital Sciences, for $1.6 billion just six years ago. Both companies are aiming for the Moon but they will both fail if they don't have the resources or determination to build and launch themselves. The first and the second Mars missions will be a good test of those.

The Next Generation, Building The Next Generation Of Technology...

Our every day lives are filled with and dominated by computers, to the extent that I would be hard pressed to know what items in my home are typically not connected to a computer.  We use computers all day, using it as an interconnected system that delivers information to us.

As the tech gets more complex, so does what people are inventing with it.  Here's some highlights from a recent discussion with some of the smartest students in America who are already working on their first inventions.  

The first invention is called "Thermodynamics builder" - which is very important for the manufacture of thermodynamically sound computers. This is the method used to conduct thermodynamic experiments in a highly complex environment. 

The Thermodynamics of a Computer I used to be involved with the field of electronics. I was also involved in the design of many computers. After I completed my PhD I applied for a job as a mathematician (the software engineering job in the Department of Physics at Northwestern University). This was after I had completed my computer studies at Stanford University as well as my lab at Stanford University. 

I was hired to build and test products and services at the Apple Computer and in the development of the new Apple Macintosh. These products and services are called the "Apples" and Apple Mac computers. In 1979 I went to Germany where I went to start a computer research project I called the "Apprentice Computer Science Institute" (APIS) in Erfurt (Germany). I was a computer scientist at the APIS.

Next is the "Molecular Mechanism and the Mechanism of Control and Controlled Release" - which was first applied in the field of cellular and molecular-organism physiology in 1992 by R. F. T. Tylen, an MIT graduate student. In the early 1990s, many in the field of molecular-organism physiology (MOC) realized there was a lot of confusion over this problem. 

As more and more researchers, including me, realized what they had known for certain for decades, the situation became increasingly difficult to overcome. 

These new discoveries were made much more widely in the early 1990s, especially during the last decade of the 20th century. The first such discoveries, under the name of "Cetyl-Alcohol-and-Cetyl-Phosphonic-And-N-3-Cholinesterase," were made during the 1960s by Dr. John L. Rummel III at the University of California–Davis where he first began his career in the biomedical field of molecular-organism physiology. Rummel would then go on to become the Director of the Institute...

Lastly, what they're calling the "Growth Stabilizer" - It allows you to make any shape, shape, or form that you desire in a single application and you can do so with the help of a simple user interface. The Growth Stabilizer is a patent pending system of self-organizing micro machines that you can program to grow or deform the body of any kind of living thing such as a sheep, a tree, a leaf, or even a tree in a space. 

The Growth Stabilizer is a very powerful device (you just need to select the shape and shape and click OK). It is designed to be used in many different ways. I hope to share more of my Growth Stabilizer experiences in the future and I hope to share more of my Growth Stabilizer experience in the future.

So, let's take a look at the Growth Stabilizer: have a few things to say and this is all the info that I have. Growth Stabilizer Technology – A new way for me to get started with my own business!

Lawyers Beware: Artificial Intelligence Is Learning Law - And Doing Frighteningly Well...

AI or artificial intelligence is starting to find its footing in the legal field. The world is now on the brink of revolution in legal profession spearheaded with the extensive use of AI in the entire industry, specifically by the in-house lawyers.

Just like how email greatly changed the way people conduct their business on a daily basis, AI is also expected to become an ever-present force and an invaluable assistant to almost all lawyers.

But the million dollar question now is, what does the future look like for AI as far as the legal industry is concerned? A much bigger question is, will AI soon replace real life lawyers? And if this ever happens, would there be moral or ethical dilemmas that must be taken into consideration when it comes to AI and its use and adoption in the legal field?

What’s the Future of AI in Law?

If you will consider the future of artificial intelligence in the legal field, there are several certainties here. First off, those that fail to embrace and adopt this change are going to fall behind the rest in one way or another. Second, those that actually choose to use AI will get the chance to enjoy more freedom to tackle two things that they always lack enough time for: advising and thinking.

AI in Law – How Technology Helps Lawyers 

These exciting developments in technology initially don’t seem to leave much room where human lawyers can get involved. But, technology helps a lot in making the lives of lawyers so much easier, simpler and more flexible.

Thanks to technology, legal professionals get the chance to work from the comforts of their home with the use of remote desktop programs and cloud software. But, these are comparatively outdated. Good thing there are now companies that connect barristers and law firms with freelance paralegals and law students that allow quick and easy outsourcing of tasks with no need for an entire legal team to stay in one office or building.

This kind of advancements not only allows lawyers in law firms to have more efficient work as they also change how lawyers interact with their clients that moves away from the usual solicitor’s firm.

Will AI Technology Replace Lawyers?

There is very little chance that these changes in technology will push real life lawyers to the side anytime soon. While AI and similar automated programs are excellent resources, there is still a substantial limit to what these logical and formulaic programs can do and achieve.

On the other hand, people skills have become more valuable than ever because the only way for technology to take over is if clients are also robots themselves.

What Will Be the Impact on Technology on Today’s Legal Field?

Technological innovations will continue reflecting the needs of clients. There is no doubt that AI will change how lawyers work and hopefully, it will also make daily tasks such as legal research and drafting more cost effective and efficient. But at the end of the day, clients will still prefer to have an experienced and real legal adviser by their side who knows how to use the latest technology to their full advantage while keeping a good interpersonal relationship.

Smartphones: How We ALL Became Addicted...

It wasn’t too long ago when smartphones were first introduced. But, they have quickly become a basic necessity in the lives of millions of people across the globe.

Let’s be honest. Who can imagine their life without their smartphone in their hands? It didn’t really take that long for these devices to become an integral and essential part of day to day life. It was revealed that half of the world’s population use smartphones right now.

But, how did these handy devices change how people do things?

A decade ago, people didn’t even think that it was possible to use a mobile device to talk with another person. Now, it has become common to engage in all kinds of conversations using their phone’s built-in personal assistants. From getting recommendations for the best dining spots in the city, getting directions to the nearest hospital, ordering chocolates online for their special someone to dictating emails, smartphones and their integrated assistants can pretty much do anything and everything under the sun.

People today can no longer imagine their lives without their smartphones by their side. These devices have evolved to the point that they are no longer just a mere tool for communication but also a constant companion that helps cater to your unique needs while making your life so much easier and simpler. You can choose from millions of apps and download those that are useful and interesting for you, such as apps to remind you of important appointments, build websites, edit photos and videos, track your health and control your connected smart appliances.

Doing business using your mobile devices has also gone beyond spending time in a coffee shop and making endless calls. Invoicing, design, emails, and online research have all become possible today. Capturing videos and images even while on the go has also been made easier while integrated security features make it safe to conduct business no matter where you are. In the field of education, learners don’t just get to access the internet but can even reach out to the best teachers and professionals in the world with just the use of their smartphones.

Half of the users of smartphones use the device to access the different health-related services. Whether they use apps to verify prescriptions or monitor glucose levels, use the device to find healthy recipes or make it their personal fitness tracker, smartphones have affected how people deal with their health and wellness.

But even with the incredible technology that pretty much puts the whole world right in your hands, the truth is that the evolution of smartphones still remains to be in its infancy. This is because technological innovations are still moving forward and beyond with the giant names in the industry leading the race as they to address and cater to the needs and desires of the users today and in the future.

So, the next time you look at your smartphone, don’t forget that there is so much more to it than just being a device to help you check your social media accounts or take photos.

With modern technology and human lifestyle constantly transforming, social media platforms are no exceptions. Social media topics, trends, and news are being constantly updated. Since social media is the new cool in 2020, you surely need to stay in the loop.

Keeping an eye on the top trends and news on social media might sound to be a hectic task. But in reality, it's just a couple of minutes read.

That being said, here are the top news and updates from various social media updates. Give it a quick read to update your inventory and know what's happening in the U.S and all across the world.

TikTok banned from India. Instagram steps up with TikTok like features

With the border tensions between India and China, the Indian government decided to ban 59 Chinese apps showing reasons for the "threat to national security and sovereignty" caused by the apps. TikTok was included in the list leading to the Chinese app platform losing over 120 million monthly users.
Taking advantage of the situation, Instagram launched Reels, which resembles Tiktok, and enables users to make 15 seconds videos and share them as stories.

Facebook urges people to wear masks in the face of the COVID-19 pandemic with newly introduced prompts

As COVID-19 cases keep rising steadily in the U.SFacebook added new prompts that ask users to wear masks while they are out in public places. As Facebook mentions on its platform, "With the rise in COVID-19 cases in the US, we’re putting an alert at the top of Facebook and Instagram to remind everyone to wear face coverings and find more prevention tips from the CDC in our COVID-19 Information Center.” people should have realized the importance of masks and started wearing them already.

#StopHateForProfit movement gains momentum with brands and civil rights associations joining the campaign

After the controversial statement of President Donald J. Trump on #BlackLivesMatter blew up on social media, it took an ugly turn when Twitter issued a warning on the tweet, while Facebook remained silent. Protesters asked businesses to stop any and all ad contributions towards Facebook in the current month of July. As said by the campaigners, "We are asking all businesses to stand in solidarity with our most deeply held American values of freedom, equality, and justice and not advertise on Facebook’s services in July" people are surely not pleased by Facebook's blatant ignorance to a burning issue.

Twitter now enables "Voice Tweet" features

To what was a much-awaited feature rumored to be arriving soon, you can now record your voice and tweet with voice tweets on Twitter.

The Future That's Definitely Coming: When Human Brains And Tech Become One...

A blink to control the mobile phone could simplify our routine, and would change forever the quality of life of people with different disabilities. The mind computing is changing the way we interact with tech. Today it allows users to control external devices with their minds and opens up enormous possibilities for inclusion.

Decoding mind waves to read minds has been the field of work for years for Ana Matrán-Fernández, a young researcher who has focused much of her career on improving the quality of life of people with disabilities through scientific breakthroughs.

The assistive tech used by Matrán-Fernández involves mind-computer interfaces (BCI) that allow people to control something external, such as a computer or a wheelchair. According to the researcher from the University of Essex, the technique consists of placing electrodes on the person's head, to measure electrical activity in the mind.

This allows signals associated with certain thoughts to be converted into commands that make it possible for the person with paralysis to control a device.

"We mount a helmet with electrodes, and that gives us signals. Then we have many algorithms and from there we can extract information. We cannot know what a person is thinking exactly, but we can distinguish from a series of options, what they are trying to do , points out the researcher, who exemplifies: "if you want to go to the right, think about raising your right hand, if you want to go to the left, think about moving your left hand. That kind of thinking is well located in the mind. "

After a year and a half of laboratory tests, Ana Matrán-Fernández encouraged her team to participate in a unique opportunity to test their work outside the door: a Cybathlon.

"Cybathlon is a competition for people with different types of disabilities.People who cannot move at all, or people who have had their limbs amputated." They compete in different disciplines in their corresponding category, in our case we form a group of students, and we worked more than a year with David, a 60-year-old man who had an accident at 30 and became a paraplegic.

"It helps you reevaluate your priorities" said Matrán-Fernández, who on that occasion received a bronze medal with his team.
