🍏 Universal Connectivity Standard //
Renowned Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo tweeted that AirPods, the MagSafe battery pack and the Magic Keyboard/Mouse/Trackpad trio will also move to USB-C in the "foreseeable future", as will the iPhone.
A switch of Apple devices to the USB-C port will be able to comply with regulatory requirements, as it is widely used in other technical devices.
Kuo also suggested that Apple will not yet release iPhones without ports due to the current limitations of wireless technology and the immaturity of its own MagSafe ecosystem of wireless accessories, which attach to iPhones using magnets.

🔬Arab World’s Quantum Computer //
Scientists from the Quantum Research Centre (QRC) at the Abu Dhabi Institute for Technology Innovation are developing machines that work on the laws of quantum physics. They propose using quantum bits, or qubits, which enable computers to exponentially speed up certain tasks. These capabilities could open up new algorithmic possibilities for quantum computers, allowing them to perform calculations that any other device could not.
By the end of this summer, QRC expects Abu Dhabi to have laid the foundations for such a future by producing the first simple quantum chips. And now engineers at QRC's Quantum Computing Lab are assembling the Arab world’s quantum computer, they don't expect the machine to immediately surpass classic supercomputers.
Three quantum computers are currently in operation at the QRC's Masdar City premises, with plans to build five by the end of this year. The centre plans to manufacture at least 30 more quantum bits over the next two years.
