Microsoft is getting rid of Money. Relatively new features stop working in Excel
Microsoft has announced the impending cessation of a number of features in its proprietary Excel spreadsheet application. This was announced in an email sent to users of a Microsoft 365 subscription.
We are talking about integration with Wolfram Alpha and the premium Money in Excel template (Money in Excel). Both features were launched relatively recently, so it’s strange to see them go out of business so quickly.
“Money in Excel” was one of the benefits Microsoft touted when they renamed Office 365 subscriptions to Microsoft 365. Basically, the feature makes it easy to import banking data and keep track of your finances.
The debut took place a little over two years ago, by the time support is terminated, this feature will live a little over three years. Money in Excel can be used until June 30, 2023. All user data will be saved, just stop updating transactions. As a replacement, Microsoft is offering a 60-day free trial of Tiller.
Integration with Wolfram Alpha was introduced in July 2020. The feature will stop working on June 11, 2023 and will last less than three years. Over 100 Wolfram Alpha data types have been introduced to Excel. Lack of support means that updating data, following links, and most other features related to Wolfram Alpha data will stop working.

Samsung will remember how to make smartphones with removable batteries. This feature is confirmed for the “indestructible” Galaxy XCover6 Pro

The Samsung Galaxy XCover6 Pro smartphone will offer not only a very well-protected case, but also an ultra-rare feature in the form of a removable battery.
Earlier renders that appeared on the Web hinted at a removable back cover, but now the instruction manual has become available, where this is confirmed.
Slots for SIM cards will be located in the old fashioned way under a removable cover. To install or remove cards, you will need to remove the battery.
The smartphone will also receive a headphone jack, which is located on the top edge.
Recall, according to available data, the device will be based on SoC Snapdragon 778G. He will also receive 6 GB of RAM, a 6.5-inch screen and a dual main camera.

Compiled a rating of all devices on Apple Silicon and not only. You can clearly understand which SoC in which device is capable of what

The other day, new Apple PCs based on the SoC M2 went on sale. The source decided to compare all the current computers of the company on different platforms of the Apple Silicon family, and at the same time add new iPads and several generations of iPhone to the comparison.
The comparison here is based on Geekbench data, which is not as interesting as using any applications for real tasks, but still it is very interesting to look at the rating in this form.
This rating is generally quite predictable, but for some the results may be quite unexpected. For example, in one of the tests, the iPad Pro on the M1 turns out to be faster than full-fledged Macs on the SoC M1 cut down on the GPU. Since this is a graphics performance test, it actually makes sense.
It will also be useful to clearly see how the M2 in the processor test is not very far behind the M1 Pro with an eight-core CPU.
But the gap between any of the M1 versions and the A15 Bionic is always very large, which is explained not only by the difference in configuration, but also by completely different power limits.

“Ordinary bicycle arithmetic: 0.5 x 2 = 1 wheel.” American inventor built a “math bike”

An American engineer-inventor, credited on YouTube as “The Q” (possibly a reference to the James Bond character who led the Q department and supplied “Agent 007” with useful spy stuff) posted a video in which he showed the creation of a “math bicycle “. According to legend, the author broke a wheel during another bike ride, and at that moment he came up with the idea of creating a bicycle with two halves of wheels instead of one whole. Actually, the formula according to which the construction was carried out is included in the title of the video: 0.5 x 2 = 1 wheel.
I must say, the “math wheel” looks both unusual and spectacular at the same time. Judging by the video, it is quite possible to ride it, and not only on a flat road. Instead of a chamber in the halves of the rear wheel, a polyethylene pipe is used, attached to the rim with rivets – it certainly will not work.
The video is already being actively discussed on the Web – and even more: the “math bike” has become a meme. Its image is used by programmers and engineers to denote spectacular, but generally meaningless things and solutions.
