The world is producing data faster than it can afford to keep it. Most of that data is cold. It is rarely touched, but it cannot be deleted, so it sits on tape and disk that wear out, draw power, and have to be copied to new hardware every few years. The recurring costs are exponential. DNA has always been the obvious answer. It is denser than anything silicon can offer, and it lasts for centuries…

Google Pixel 11 Pro: Two-minute review Google's Pixel 11 Pro doesn't move the needle very far in terms of new design, hardware, and features. It looks almost identical to the Google Pixel 10 Pro , save for a new all-glass Camera Bar.

They might want a simple 'yes' or 'no' initially, but eventually they'll say the most dreaded thing of all, and it'll be a demand, not a question: "Prove it". Traditional vulner…
