OnePlus 10T Scraps Alert Slider, Adds 'Crater' Camera System
OnePlus 10T Scraps Alert Slider, Adds 'Crater' Camera System
The OnePlus 10T is launching at an in-person event in New York on Aug. 3, but OnePlus isn't waiting until then to show off the details. In a post Monday, the company shared more on the phone's design, including its battery and camera system.
The 10T will be available in two colors, which the company calls moonstone black and jade green with a matte finish. The phone's new "crater design" merges the rear glass panel with the camera system.
Unlike all other OnePlus phones, the 10T won't have the Alert Slider because it "provided us with the necessary space inside the device to add new, meaningful technologies" -- like faster charging with two charging pumps, a bigger battery and better signal thanks to 15 antennas around the device.
The 10T will be the company's second phone reveal this year, following the OnePlus 10 Pro in January.
Nvidia Quadro RTX 5000 will bring a new level of power to thin laptops
Nvidia Quadro RTX 5000 will bring a new level of power to thin laptops
The next time -- or the first time -- you go shopping for a laptop with at least an Intel Core i7 H-class processor, 16GB or more RAM, 512GB or larger SSD and an Nvidia RTX GPU, it may bear an "RTX Studio" sticker as part of a new program Nvidia announced at Computex 2019.
But that high-powered laptop, such as the Razer Blade Advanced or Asus ROG Zephyrus GX701, doesn't have the work behind it that the RTX Studio laptops have, which includes specific programming interfaces for pro graphics software companies to add more GPU acceleration to their applications or the workflow testing of the drivers with the hardware and software.
And the Quadro RTX Studio models promise breakthrough power for video, 3D, AI-assisted features in creative applications and coding with AI. They incorporate the new Quadro RTX 5000, 4000 and 3000, the first Quadros that can be used in systems the size of Max-Q gaming laptops. And the RTX 5000 is first 16GB mobile GPU Nvidia's been able to adapt to systems already designed around the GeForce RTX 2080 Max-Q.
They're essentially workstation-class variants of the Max-Q versions of the gaming-focused GeForce RTX 2080, 2070 and 2060. That means no more needing to schlep a 10-pound Windows system or underpowered MacBook Pro for, say, onsite video editing. And photographers can finally get the 10-bit color support in Windows (i.e., Photoshop) that they need in a truly portable, though likely not inexpensive, machine.
Mobile workstations with the top-end Quadro chips have traditionally been big and heavy, and frequently 17-inch models, because of the power requirements: The RTX 5000 draws between 80 and 100 watts (Nvidia's Optimus technology dynamically adjusts), which makes it easier to adapt existing laptop designs for them. The older P5200 requires 150w.
The new Quadros are also the first generation of the company's mobile GPUs to incorporate the ray-tracing and Tensor (for AI acceleration) cores that differentiate them from their Pascal predecessors, the Quadro P5200, P4200 and P3200. Those are becoming increasingly important as more professional software boosts capabilities via AI algorithms like Adobe's Sensei and makes working in 3D with reasonable real-time rendering quality less painful.
Like their predecessors, they're also the only VR-ready Quadro chips in the new lineup and the only ones that can use GDDR6 memory; that bump seems to deliver a lot higher memory bandwidth, at least based on Nvidia's specs.
While I define a mobile workstation as any mobile device with a CPU or GPU that gets certified by professional software applications, Nvidia defines it by size, weight and manufacturer. That way the company and its partners can refer to these as "studio laptops" rather than using the marketing-kiss-of-death "mobile workstation" to distinguish the them from high-powered GeForce-based systems.
Nvidia's RTX Studio badges for its high-end mobile graphics processors.
Nvidia
Remember the "Creator Ready" driver track Nvidia launched in March? Now that driver-release cycle has been redubbed as Nvidia Studio Drivers, though it still works with the same set of not-necessarily-Studio GPUs: Turing- and Pascal-based GeForce cards and as far back as the Volta-based Titan V.
Seventeen manufacturers are debuting with RTX Studio laptops, including Acer, Asus, Dell, Gigabyte, HP, MSI and Razer.
Nvidia's launched other members of the updated mobile Quadro line as well. There are also new Quadro analogs for the GeForce GTX 16- series, in that the Quadro T2000 and T1000 use the new Turing architecture but lack the RT and Tensor cores. However, moving to Turing still delivers better parallel processing, adaptive shaders and a unified memory architecture, which should add up to a modest performance boost.
And for the budget-minded, the Pascal P600 and P500 get a bit of a speed bump for the P620 and P520, gaining more CUDA cores and slightly higher memory bandwidth.

Twitter Bot Exposes Gender Pay Gap of Companies Tweeting About International Women's Day
Twitter Bot Exposes Gender Pay Gap of Companies Tweeting About International Women's Day
Every day, there's a new main character on Twitter, and International Women's Day was no different. Providing an invaluable service to women everywhere, Gender Pay Gap Bot went viral on Tuesday when it revealed the extent to which companies celebrating IWD on Twitter were paying their female employees less than their male employees.
International Women's Day has long been appropriated by companies using the language and imagery of female empowerment to sell us things or simply to paint themselves in a positive and progressive light. But if we really want to understand whether a particular company believes in women's empowerment, the best place to start is by looking at their gender pay gap. Often, there is disconnect between what they say and what they do. This is exactly the kind of hypocrisy the Gender Pay Gap Bot highlights.
In the UK, companies with more than 250 employees are required to publicly share data about the differences in pay between men and women across their organizations. Gender pay gap data can reflect inequalities in men and women's experience of working for a company -- for example if a company only promotes men into senior managerial positions or recruits more women to lower paying roles. It's often used as a barometer for measuring gender equality within an organization.
The bot is the creation of copywriter Francesca Lawson and software developer Ali Fensome, both 27, from Manchester, England. Lawson and Fensome used this publicly available data to create a bot that identified British companies and organizations tweeting with the International Women's Day hashtag and would retweet them with information about their gender pay gaps.
Aware that the Gender Pay Gap Bot was airing their dirty laundry in public, many companies and organizations deleted their original International Women's Day tweets so they wouldn't show up in the Bot's feed. Twitter user Madeline Odent (@oldenoughtosay) started keeping track of employers who were deleting their tweets after being called out by the bot. She noticed that many of them reposted their tweets using a different variation of the IWD hashtag.
"I think it's pretty cowardly to delete the tweet after being called out -- it gives off the impression that they're embarrassed about their pay gap and they'd rather pretend it doesn't exist than own up to their problems and do something about it," Lawson said over email. "Nationwide Building Society and University of Sunderland responded with a bit more context about what is causing their gap, which I think is a much more helpful response."
Many of the original tweets used pictures and videos of smiling women working for British companies, with uplifting messages about the importance of female leadership and role models. In contrast, the retweets made for pretty depressing reading. Not all, but the majority of Gender Pay Gap Bot's tweets revealed that women's hourly median pay was lower than that of their male colleagues -- by as much as 73%.
It's no secret that the technology industry in particular has long had a gender and diversity problem. A report released in October by Anita.org, a nonprofit that works to advance women in computing, showed that half of women working in tech feel that it's a boys' club. We can perhaps glean why this is the case by examining some of the Gender Pay Gap Bot's tweets.
"While women have made great strides, there is a continued fight for equality and to eliminate discrimination and bias between genders," tweeted cloud technology company NetApp on Tuesday. "Together, we can forge women's equality. How will you #BreakTheBias?"
Meanwhile, the Gender Pay Gap Bot retweet of NetApp's tweet revealed that women working at the company were paid a median of 37% less per hour than men.
This is just one example among many, but it highlights the extent to which companies are able to paint discrimination and bias as a problem for others to solve. In light of this, asking what individuals will do to "break the bias" looks like the very definition of passing the buck.
"NetApp's gap in gender pay is mostly driven by the fact that there are far more male employees in commissionable (sales) roles," a NetApp spokesperson said in a statement. "We know there is still work to do and are actively focused on gender balance. NetApp continues to take active steps in reviewing our pay positioning and ensuring we pay male and female employees equally who are in similar jobs that require similar skill sets."

Outrageous monthly monitoring fees
Update, Oct 23: Since our initial review, Frontpoint added a feature called Frontpoint ID Protect to its monthly subscription. This new feature, in partnership with Allstate, will allow you to monitor your personal and financial data, and should catch early signs of fraud and reimburse you for fraud-related losses. I haven't tested this feature out, but it's an interesting addition to the mix of features available from Frontpoint. I've adjusted the overall score and the conclusion in the review below.
Home security comes in two basic categories: professionally installed systems and do-it-yourself arrays. The professional systems usually cost a lot more, though you can often break up those fees into monthly payments -- and someone else does all the setup for you. DIY systems by contrast are cheaper, but require a little more elbow grease.
And then there's Frontpoint, a DIY system with high-end professional monitoring. Frontpoint Security Solutions' offering is a solid system with a lot of flexibility -- but its monthly monitoring costs, which clock in at a grimace-inducing $45, simply make it too expensive to beat out more wallet-friendly packages from competitors like SimpliSafe and Abode.
This old home (security)
Frontpoint works like most other DIY security systems: It arrives in a box that's designed to unpack nicely. Once you download the app and begin to install each device, the smaller, numbered boxes inside the larger package help guide you through the process.
I got the most basic Frontpoint system, which includes a motion sensor, two door/window sensors, a keypad and the central hub. In addition, I got a camera and a doorbell cam. I set up my Frontpoint system in under half an hour, and despite some small hitches (your account is set up at the time of purchase, and since Frontpoint provided the box for testing, it was linked to someone else's name), I was able to get things up and running without much head-scratching.
From there, I tried out the system as usual for about a week. The hub gives verbal alerts like "Front door open" when doors or windows are opened or closed, which I like. If you don't, you can switch off the setting easily in the app. The motion sensor worked as well, balancing sensitivity so that intruders would be recognized but shifting shadows wouldn't set off a false alarm.
Exploring the camera settings was fun and easy, too. You can set zones of interest for the camera, so it automatically begins recording when someone or something moves into that zone -- or set up "tripwires" to create a similar effect.
Within two days of installing the system, I received a helpful alert before bed one night that the front door had been left ajar. And I was able to use the camera to check in on my kids playing in the backyard during the workday, catching when they were getting a little overzealous with their mud and sidewalk-chalk alchemical experiments.
Frontpoint's basic system comes with two door/window sensors, one motion detector, a keypad, a base station and signs.

In short, home security systems are genuinely useful, and Frontpoint is no different. The big question is, how does it stack up against the competition?
Entering the ring with Ring
The DIY security market has exploded in the past decade or so, with startups like SimpliSafe and Abode, and latecomer systems from established smart home companies like Amazon Ring and Wyze. Frontpoint most resembles the startups, where home security is and has always been the primary focus. But its monthly monitoring fee sets it apart.
Let's take a look at the details.
Again, Frontpoint's basic kit starts at $392, and includes a motion sensor, two door/window sensors, a hub, a keypad and signs. SimpliSafe's most analogous system starts at $259 and comes with three door/window sensors.
Seems like Frontpoint's is much more expensive, right? Well, it's complicated. Both brands are almost always running promotions of various sorts. Right now, that means Frontpoint's system comes with a "free" doorbell cam, and is on sale for $255. SimpliSafe's system is on sale for $207. So maybe Frontpoint, with that included video doorbell, is offering a better deal than SimpliSafe? But let's go on.
Look, the starting price for many of these DIY systems depends on the deal you find, but the best way to get a sense of how the cost stands up over time is to look at device pricing and monitoring fees. There, a pattern emerges: Frontpoint's prices are consistently a little higher than SimpliSafe's -- $6 more for door/window sensors, $12 for motion detectors, $13 for glass break sensors and so on.
Add up these small discrepancies over a larger-scale system, and you're looking at hundreds of dollars of difference.
But if you're trying for a small-scale system with a camera, Frontpoint could beat out SimpliSafe -- especially because its indoor camera is the only device that's significantly cheaper than SimpliSafe's alternative. Frontpoint's camera is $65 while SimpliSafe's is $99.
SimpliSafe's system is a little cheaper than Abode's for the most part, but both are a little pricier than the Ring Alarm and Wyze budget options. Suffice it to say, Frontpoint's offering fits in nicely with that higher tier of DIY systems… until you look at the monthly monitoring fees.
Frontpoint's system is comparable to most other DIY security systems on the market, except in one way.
David Priest/CNET
Netflix, but with security
Okay, streaming services like Netflix don't seem like a great comparison, but monthly monitoring fees or subscriptions are an inescapable element of security systems -- and many DIY options offer prices that are pretty similar to video streaming services' monthly costs. SimpliSafe charges $15, or $25 with all the monitoring and automation goodies. Abode charges anywhere from $6 to $20. Wyze is $5 per month, and even professional systems like Vivint and Comcast Xfinity only cost $45 and $40 respectively for the most expensive options.
Frontpoint charges $45 per month if you use direct deposit, or $50 if you use a card. At the time of this review, the company is offering a promotional price of $40 per month.
Just to hammer this point home: Frontpoint's monthly fee is equivalent to Abode's most expensive tier, SimpliSafe's most expensive tier and Wyze's monthly fee combined.
I asked a representative at Frontpoint why the pricing is so high, and they chalked it up to the cellular backup, environmental monitoring, video monitoring and automation features.
But Wyze is the only option that doesn't offer cell backup; various levels of environmental and video monitoring are often available, especially with professional systems; and automation features are fairly standard these days. While Ring Alarm, say, works with plenty of smart home gadgets, even more siloed companies like SimpliSafe integrate their services with Google Assistant and Alexa to allow greater automation. Frontpoint has some of those same voice assistant integrations -- so that's not a weakness -- but it certainly doesn't stand above the competition in smart home integration.
In short, I don't buy the explanation for the monthly fee. That $45 (or even $50) price tag is frankly astounding, given where the rest of the industry stands. Practically, it will mean hundreds of dollars more every year compared with its direct competitors. At that point, you might as well get the excellent and surprisingly affordable Comcast Xfinity system and call it a day.
Frontpoint's $65 camera is the best deal in its hardware lineup.
David Priest/CNET
But… is it good?
The monthly fee disappointed me in part because I actually really liked working with Frontpoint. Setup was painless, and the app was fairly accessible, even while packing in a lot of features and information.
All the basic devices work as you'd expect them to, and the $65 indoor camera, designed by Alarm.com, is a solid deal. It offers 1080p resolution and a 110-degree viewing angle (I personally like wider-angle lenses for security cameras, but for an indoor option, 110 degrees will almost always do the trick). The camera is a breeze to set up, and as I mentioned before, can record and send notifications based on a variety of user-determined rules.
The video doorbell has 720p resolution with a 170-degree camera -- no 1:1 aspect ratio here, though, despite it making the most sense for video doorbells, where people want to see packages on the ground as much as the faces of people standing only a foot or two away. I wasn't able to set up and test the video doorbell because my previous doorbell damaged my house's wiring, but Frontpoint uses a branded device from Skybell, which makes doorbells we've tested and liked before.
The other third-party offerings are solid, too, and Frontpoint doesn't inflate its prices. You can integrate a Yale smart deadbolt, for instance, and you'll pay a little less for it on Frontpoint's website than Amazon's. Ditto the Jasco light bulbs and Alarm.com thermostat.

These gadgets are all respectable -- and it's refreshing not to see upcharges on third-party gadgets when that's so common. But besides the excellent Yale lock, none of these devices compete with the best stand-alone versions available, like Arlo's latest video doorbells or cameras, or any of our favorite smart light bulbs.
This isn't a deal breaker, but it does highlight a problem with Frontpoint's general value proposition. Home automation is a key justification for the company's $45 monthly fee, but when the smart home devices available are curated by Frontpoint and offer hit-or-miss quality, you have to ask: Why not just use the connection with Alexa or Google Assistant to allow people to choose their own smart bulbs, locks and thermostats to integrate with?
The takeaway
Frontpoint offers a solid security system, with performance akin to SimpliSafe or Abode. It even bests these DIY competitors in a handful of price categories -- especially with a few of its smart home device offerings.
But the outrageous monthly monitoring fee will rightly turn off a lot of people. Frontpoint's customers will pay anywhere from $240 to $420 more per year than SimpliSafe customers -- and that number is closer to $500 more than budget DIY systems like Wyze. You usually buy a home security system for the long run, not just a year or two, so that difference in monitoring fees will mean thousands of dollars for many, if not most, customers.
The new Frontpoint ID Protect feature, which is a free addition to the monthly monitoring fee, offers an interesting dimension to this conversation that most competitors don't really address -- and it may or may not be a feature that makes this package more appealing to you. While it makes that $45 monthly fee slightly easier to swallow, though, paying over $500 per year on an ongoing basis just feels a little too expensive, unless you're all-in on every feature offered.
If you're ready to pay that kind of money for security alone, a provider like Comcast Xfinity will offer better support at a comparable price (actually a little cheaper). If the appeal of DIY security is its affordability, then you're better off sticking to more affordable-over-time options like those offered by SimpliSafe, Abode or Wyze.
Correction, July 1: An earlier version of this story incorrectly described which voice assistants Frontpoint integrates with. Frontpoint works with both Google Assistant and Alexa.
Night before a 5k none to run 5k plan good time to run a 5k good time to run 5k it is never too late to it is never too late to be it s never too late to be active it s never too late to begin again it s never too late to learn it s never too late to mend en vogue never gonna get it
It's never too late to run your first 5K. Here's how
It's never too late to run your first 5K. Here's how
Whether you're a runner who's taken some time off or you consider yourself a total newbie, setting a goal to run your first 5K (aka 3.1 miles) is a great way to start the new year. Even though training for a 5K is not quite the same commitment as training for a longer race like a marathon, it still requires strategy and planning in order to pull it off safely.
Not quite ready to lace up those running shoes yet? Running has a ton of benefits that'll help convince you to start, if you're still on the fence. "Running will improve just about every part of your body, inside and out," says Tone & Sculpt trainer Melissa Kendter. "It keeps your heart healthy, regulates your blood pressure, improves cognitive function, boosts mood, manages weight, builds confidence and so much more."
Regardless of where you are in your race training, below, Kendter shares some of the top mistakes to avoid when running your first 5K and more tips on how to get started.
3 mistakes to avoid during 5K training
Starting too fast and too far
As excited as you may be to get started running your first 5K, you'll want to start your training sustainably and avoid running too fast or for too long at the beginning. "Your body has to get used to the new stresses of running and you need to give your body time to gradually get used to the new demands for long-term running success," says Kendter.
In order to ease into running your first 5K, try starting with shorter run/walk intervals. Over time, Kendter says, you can slowly increase how long you run and shorten your walks until you're able to build up to the full 5K distance. How long it will take you to increase your run time will depend on your starting fitness level and running experience, but in general, you will want to plan to train for at least four weeks before a 5K, and seven weeks if you're a total beginner, according to the training plans we consulted.
Neglecting your form
Kendter points out that running is a challenging sport, so don't forget to focus on your form. "Focus on running with relaxed shoulders and on taking short, light, quick steps, landing under your center of mass," she says.
Not cross-training
Running is a great way to exercise, but on its own, it won't tick off all the boxes you want to check when it comes to a well-rounded fitness routine. "Make sure to strength train as well -- your body loves variety -- and doing different types of exercise reduces the stress running places on your joints and spine," says Kendter.
Other modalities you might want to stack into your running routine are stretching, yoga, Pilates or other activities that help you build flexibility and strength. All of these can help round out your routine since they're not cardio-focused.
When you start training for a 5K, it's best to focus on your time spent running instead of pace.

How to train for a successful 5K
While the exact type of training schedule that you'll begin with depends on personal factors like your current fitness level and schedule, you can consult training plans like the ones below to get started. If you're unsure of your fitness level or what kind of program is right for you, talk to a certified trainer or running coach who can help make a plan that works for you.
"For someone who has never run, you just want to get on your feet and get comfortable with walking long distances and jogging. Don't focus on pace, rather focus on the time spent walking/jogging and increasing your endurance," says Kendter.
And if you're more active or have run in the past, your training schedule may look different or more advanced. "As someone who has run a bit or is very active, you can alternate running days, rest days and add in strength training where appropriate," suggests Kendter.
