Tap the search bar in Telegram and enter # followed by a keyword to find messages that use that particular hashtag across all your chats. Narrow down search results by username and date range. Also, when you use a hashtag before any word in a message, that word becomes clickable, allowing you to see all the messages relating to that topic.

Like other messaging apps, Telegram's chat list is dynamically sorted by the date of last update, and they limit users to just 5 pinned chats.

?

This is fine if you're just chatting with friends and family on Telegram. But if you're one of the many power users and professionals using Telegram for business, communities, and productivity, the 5 pinned chats limit isn't enough.

The chat list gets messy really quickly. We need more organization and sorting for our chats.

?

With Telefuel, you can create Workspace and Chat Folders to keep your Telegram organized and in place - and then you can pin unlimited chats into each Workspace and Chat Folder. No arbitrary limits.

Telegram's chat list is great for normal users, but power users need more. We felt the pain, and built Telefuel to help.

A new supercomputer in Wyoming, U.S.A., will rank among the world’s 25 fastest and help study phenomena including climate change, severe weather, wildfires and solar flares. The Hewlett Packard Enterprise Cray EX supercomputer will theoretically be able to perform almost 20 quadrillion calculations per second – 3.5 times faster than the existing machine named Cheyenne. That power will enable some of the most sophisticated simulations yet of large-scale natural and human-influenced events.

It “will support basic research in ways that will lead to more detailed and useful predictions of the world around us, thereby helping to make our society more resilient to increasingly costly disasters and contributing to improved human health and well-being,” centre Director Everette Joseph said in a news release.

More than 4,000 people from hundreds of universities and other institutions worldwide have used the supercomputing centre since it opened in 2012.

The facility’s current supercomputer, named Cheyenne, is over three times faster than its predecessor, which was named Yellowstone.

A contest among Wyoming schoolchildren will decide the new supercomputer’s name.

Wordsmyth offers you a relaxing escape while giving your brain a daily workout. Nine letters are yours to play with; turn them into as many words as you can think of. Every day brings new words to find. Wordsmyth’s simplicity allows your mind to focus on one task. Beautiful scenes dynamically interact with you as you play. Words found are stored in a list, with an indication of how many are left to find. A hint button helps you find missing words without revealing the answer. The last seven puzzles are stored so that you can come back to them at any time. Paid on iOS and Android.

To help you work through each puzzle, Wordsmyth also includes helpful hints. These are made available when you tap an on-screen question mark, and reveal a partially completed word (with some missing letters). You can then use this clue to craft up a missing word. An unlimited number of hints are available, meaning you can use them at your leisure.

While the app is available for iOS and iPadOS, it’s slightly disappointing to see that your progress doesn’t sync between devices. This means that if you start a word puzzle on your iPhone, you won’t be able to finish it on your iPad. A “shuffle” button for letter-tiles would also be a nice addition, and might help players see hidden words.

The overall feel of Wordsmyth is calming and relaxing. While some word-based games might leave you feeling stressed or disappointed, Wordsmyth is soothing and supportive, and offers a great space for you to unwind. There are no timers, levels, or distracting adverts – just a daily puzzle for you to work through either in one go, or over the course of the day.

NASA astronauts and employees will be using Fitbit devices as part of a pilot programme that aims to use Fitbit in-app daily check-in and symptom logging to help prevent the spread of COVID-19. The Google-owned company said there is evidence that resting heart rate data and other key health indicators from wearables have the potential to identify illnesses such as COVID-19 before symptoms emerge. One thousand NASA employees performing mission-critical work at six locations across the U.S. will receive Fitbit Charge 4 devices and access to Fitbit’s Ready for Work Daily Check-In experience’.

The COVID-19 pandemic is far from over. Johns Hopkins' coronavirus-tracking map has recorded over 107 million cases of the disease globally, leading to more than 2.3 million deaths. Today, many workplaces and other organizations have turned to tech to try to curb the spread of the virus.  

This partnership is born out of those efforts. In December, npj Digital Medicine published findings from Fitbit demonstrating the consumer wearables could be key to predicting the onset of illness like COVID-19 by using health metrics like breathing rate, resting heart rate and heart rate variability (HRV).

“The pandemic has underscored the critical role that Fitbit can play in providing much-needed support to help people sleep better, eat better, move more and take control of their health and wellness, as well as the potential to identify illness from specific health metrics, which is especially important now during the COVID-19 crisis,” Amy McDonough, managing director and general manager of Fitbit Health Solutions at Google, said in a statement.

“We are proud to work with NASA to support its employees and give them access to Fitbit products and services to help them better understand and manage their health and well-being during the pandemic.”

The Abacus is an all-in-one PC incorporated into a keyboard. Underneath the keys is a complete computer, including USB ports, Ethernet port, HDMI and VGA output, built-in speaker, integrated trackpad, Intel Quadcore Processor, Wi-fi and Bluetooth connectivity, and upto 4GB memory and 512GB storage. It comes pre-installed with Windows 10. It can be carried anywhere and connected to a monitor, TV or projector. Designed in collaboration with the Royal College of Art Design students, the Abacus’ internal components are reusable, and its outer body is designed out of a biodegradable polymer derived from waste corn starch, tapioca roots or sugarcane. When the device is discarded, the tech can be recycled, leaving the outer body to degrade into the soil along with its packaging made out of mushrooms!

The PC is as energy-efficient as an LED lightbulb and 63 per cent smaller than the average desktop PC, thereby reducing the carbon footprint of shipping, as well as freeing up more desk surface space.
