Google has been working on a Chrome feature that warns users if they access a website that could be using phishing techniques. Called Lookalike URLs, the tool would detect if a user was entering a website that looked legitimate but had been nefariously modified.

The ultra specific unit seems useless, but it could be vital for C++ developers. Longer than a nanosecond, it’s designed to line up perfectly with video framerates. “When working creating visual effects for film, television, and other media, it is common to run simulations or other time-integrating processes which subdivide a single frame of time into a fixed, integer number of subdivisions. It is handy to be able to accumulate these subdivisions to create exact 1-frame and 1-second intervals, for a variety of reasons,” says project head Christopher Horvath....

The crackdown fills a giant gap in the social media’s vision. Though it has been fact-checking articles for some time, they aren’t the sole culprit.

It’s also worth noting that while Safari supports the functionality, it’s only in the Technical Preview currently....

The company is working on a low light mode....

In terms of hardware, Google is ultra-cautious around product releases. The company is aware that it is not seen as a hardware company. Moreover, previous forays into cutting-edge technology – specifically with Google Glass – have been hit by trouble. With the Google Glass smart glasses, the product was seen as a glimpse into the future. However, there were growing concerns it could also glimpse into much more.
