35 Technology Facts and Stats 2020

From the moment you wake up to the moment you go back to sleep, Technology is everywhere, and I mean everywhere.  Technology is not only rapidly changing, but it’s changing so fast that most of us don’t even recognize these changes. We take most of it for granted, and consider it the norm. Many people have yet to realize just how rapid and profound the current digital revolution is, or how quickly it’s breaking down old institutions. Yes, we’re always hearing about Google, Uber, and all those “pirate entrepreneurs.” Yes, we know technology has something to do with it. But the future is approaching even more quickly that we think. Right now, all the pieces are in place to completely change the face of products, technologies, organizations, and entrepreneurship over the next few years. Below is a list of 35 Incredible Technology Facts that we find absolutely astounding.

This is the first known particle with four of the same kind of quark-The exotic particle could be a unique testing ground for ideas about how quarks interact

In a never-before-seen particle, four quarks of a feather flock together. Physicists think they have detected the first conglomerate of four quarks incorporating more than two of the same kind. This tetraquark contains  four quarks of the charm variety : two charm quarks and their antimatter counterparts, called anticharm quarks, researchers report online at arXiv.org on June 30. Quarks — fundamental building blocks of matter — typically make up three-quark particles, like protons and neutrons, or quark-antiquark pairs, like pions and kaons. Physicists have observed some more exotic  quark quartets  ( SN: 4/11/14 ) and  even quintets  ( SN: 7/14/15 ). But the new four-quark particle, dubbed X(6900), is the first four-quark particle with all of the same type. Since charm quarks and their anticharm counterparts are among the heaviest types of quarks, it is also the first tetraquark to include more than two heavy quarks. “It’s a pretty exciting finding,” says physi...

On and off screen, Olivia de Havilland exhibited grit and grace

On screen and off, Olivia de Havilland embodied grit and grace. (Photo by Hulton Archive/Getty Images) (CNN) Olivia de Havilland  represented a throwback to a bygone era, one of the last vestiges of Hollywood during its glamorous golden age. On screen, her characters held their own opposite Scarlett O'Hara and Robin Hood, appearing in black and white and florid color. Although she was a beautiful, often demure personality in movies, de Havilland exhibited a grit offscreen that might have helped explain her longevity, dying decades after many of her co-stars, at the age of 104. As if to punctuate that point, the actress sued the FX network production of  "Feud: Bette and Joan,"  a series devoted to Bette Davis and Joan Crawford, for its depiction of her as a supporting player, making clear that even as a centenarian, she was not someone with which to trifle. Olivia de Havilland, star of 'Gone With the Wind,' dies at 104 De Havilland, famously, had gone to court to ...
