A Bay Area journalist has a call to action for all moms in her new heart-wrenching documentary "For Our Children." The documentary follows mothers whose children were killed by the police, including Reverend Wanda Johnson. Her son, Oscar Grant, was shot and killed by BART Police in 2009 when he was returning home from a New Year's party. Reverend Johnson and filmmaker Debora Souza Silva joined us to discuss the importance of the film and urge a renewed focus on police brutality. "For Our Children" is streaming on Netflix now, and for more information, you can go to ForOurChildrenFilm.com. This segment aired on the KTLA 5 Morning News on May 10, 2024.

AI is only the latest and hungriest market for high-performance computing, and system architects are working around the clock to wring every drop of performance out of every watt. Swedish startup ZeroPoint, armed with €5 million ($5.5M USD) in new funding, wants to help them out with a novel memory compression technique at the nanosecond scale — and yes, it's exactly as complicated as it sounds. The concept is this: losslessly compress data just before it enters RAM, and decompress it afterwards, effectively widening the memory channel by 50% or more just by adding one small piece to the chip.

I was visibly confused when I received the Anova Precision Cooker Nano as a gift. I associated sous vide cooking methods with the sort of intimidating, molecular gastronomy-style cuisine that is typically a fool's errand for home cooks. But I quickly found out that a sous vide machine is the perfect tool for someone like me who cooks herself a huge batch of something on Sunday and grazes on it through the workweek.
