How a dusty computer store became Glendale’s new theater complex
When you step over the threshold of the Kiki and David Gindler Performing Arts Center in Glendale, you know you are somewhere special. Once a Gateway computer store, then empty until dust filled its corners, the space has been revamped as the new home
Why Our 'Procrastinating' Brains Still Outperform Computers
The brain deliberately procrastinates, even if we ask it to do otherwise. And that's a good thing.
This Is How Computers See the World
Guy builds enormous computer, uses it to play Tetris
We'd build one ourselves, if only we had some 10,000,000 hours of spare time.
Face computers slowly find their place in business
Remember Google Glass? How could you not? Born with great fanfare just four short years ago, the device quickly became the object of derision. People who wore..

How old-school silicon could bring quantum computers to the masses
A new approach to quantum—schlepping data with light—depends upon the very readily available stuff of classical computer chips.
Less than meets the eye: How do computers
We do not merely recognize objects -- our brain is so good at this task that we can automatically supply the concept of a cup when shown a photo of a curved handle or identify a face from just an ear or nose. Neurobiologists, computer scientists, and robotics engineers are all interested in understanding how such recognition works -- in both human and computer vision systems. New research suggests that there is an "atomic" unit of recognition -- a minimum amount of information…

When Will Quantum Computers Outperform Regular Computers?
Any day now, quantum computers will solve a problem too hard for a classical computer to take on. Or at least, that’s what we’ve been hoping. Scientists and companies are racing toward this computing milestone, dubbed quantum supremacy and seemingly just beyond our reach, and if you’ve been following the quantum computing story, you might wonder why we’re not there yet, given all the hype.
Will Computers Redefine the Roots of Math?
When a legendary mathematician found a mistake in his own work, he embarked on a computer-aided quest to eliminate human error. To succeed, he has to rewrite the century-old rules underlying all of mathematics.
