    Stressed parents more likely to share screen devices with their children, study finds

    Stressed parents are more likely to give screen devices to their children, which can increase the risk of overuse, according to new research. The findings also suggest that parents’ knowledge of recommended screen time limits for preschoolers has little impact on actual practices.

    Do quantum computers really performance better than conventional ones?

    Conventional probabilistic computers, systems built from standard components that use randomly flipping “probabilistic bits” to explore solution spaces, can match or surpass the performance of a large quantum annealer on a flagship optimisation problem, according to a study published in Nature Communications.
