ere’s how to enter Recovery mode on iPhone 7 or iPhone 7 Plus now that Apple has replaced the mechanical Home button with a capacitive one. The introduction of the iPhone 7 along with its capacitive Home / Touch ID button may have gone well down with the average device owner, but it hasn’t exactly settled in well with those who have reason to put their phones into DFU or Recovery mode. After all, the Home button was an integral part of both of those processes. We’ve already showed you how to enter DFU mode on iPhone 7 or iPhone 7 Plus, so now, it takes perfect sense to show you the Recovery mode process as well. But first, let us see what’s the difference between DFU mode and Recovery mode.

A teenage hacker has found a way to circumvent the phone’s security and restrictions, jailbreaking a brand new iPhone 7 running iOS 10, effectively taking full control of it and allowing him to install apps not approved by Apple. The 19-year-old hacker, who’s known online as qwertyoruiop but whose real name is Luca Todesco, took advantage of a series of bugs he found and exploited—and all it took him, he said, was just 24 hours.
Today, SolidRun announces an Intel Braswell-based MicroSoM. Unlike the ARM-powered Raspberry Pi, this is x86 compatible, meaning it can run full Windows 10. Plus, if you install a Linux distro, there will be far more packages available, such as Google Chrome, which is not available for Pi. Heck, it can probably serve as a respectable desktop. Even though it costs more than the Raspberry Pi, is it a better deal?

Education is not exempt either. Established educational institutions are being rattled by new players like General Assembly and Lynda.com, which are avoiding the looming hold major universities have over potential paying students and instead are thriving by addressing specific needs for new skills or accelerated training. On the flip side, the universities, TAFEs and schools that are embracing more tech-driven ways of teaching and learning are future-proofing themselves against more agile start-ups and are expanding their pool of student candidates to include those learning online or remotely. In each of these industries, we’re seeing innovation stem from a focus on what the customer wants. It’s not rocket science, and it can come from any person or business as long as the right drivers are behind the decision-making and product design.
“Factory floors, supply chain, trucking, everything is becoming a data source and can be analysed.” The end result of this level of connectivity is greater efficiency and, according to Dr Vogels, almost every company is becoming a software and analytics company. That trend implies a greater dependence on the cloud, which is music to the ears of Dr Vogels, the key architect of Amazon Web Services.
