Google originally started as a search engine and with years it has excelled a lot and has made lot of technological advancements.
Not only they have introduced Android, but also a variety of online products and new platforms. Google has made lot of their own products including smart home devices, smartphones, tablets and others.
Now, it seems Google is taking a further move for a better future. Google has always stayed in the core of the technology and operated via its own softwares.
The thing that Google has missed ever since it has made its own products is that they rely on third party manufacturers to make its own products. This turned out to be one of the main disadvantage of the company.
As we all know processors, network chips and other vital microchips lays the foundation for any modern day device. So, building them by own cuts down the cost a lot, but that requires lot of investment.
So, Google now seems to be making a move by developing their own chips for its own range of products. According to Reuters, Google has hired more than a dozen microchip engineers in Bengaluru in recent months.
Since 2014, Google has only designed computer server chips for its own data centers and image processing chips for its own range of Pixel smartphones.
Now, if Google excels to make powerful and efficient chips like those coming from Intel or AMD, that will actually help them to make better products and cut down the price of their own products.
It’s competitors like Amazon.com Inc, Microsoft Corp, Apple Inc and Facebook Inc each have launched similar chip design efforts that will in turn help them to make fascinating and better products for their consumers.
Here in Bengaluru, Google has hired a minimum of 16 engineering veterans and 4 talent recruiters to form its own “gChips” team from traditional chipmakers including Intel, Qualcomm Inc, Broadcom Inc and Nvidia Corp, according to a review of LinkedIn profiles.
Rajat Bhargava who describes himself on LinkedIn as Google’s “silicon site lead” in Bengaluru, says he joined last May after a decade at Broadcom and a year at Intel.
Google can likely grow its manufacturing team to 80 people by year’s end. Their existing chip manufacturing team in Silicon Valley will likely to fine-tune and test design ideas before shipping final ones off to manufacturers.
The company has even posted 13 job postings for roles related to chips in Bengaluru, according to a recent check of the company’s careers website.
Well, this thing was quite expected, but the bigger thing is that the chip designing of the so called gChips have started out in India. While other tech giants like Amazon, Apple, Microsoft, Facebook has hired staff in other countries, Google’s CEO Sundar Pichai has laid the roots in the Indian soil.
India has a lot of potential, from brain to the growing economy. Also, the fact remains that there are a lot of Android users in India than in other developed countries. Even Apple is reportedly thinking of making moves to establish its manufacturing unit in India.
So, getting passionate feedback, making new technological advancements in such an aspiring country will prove to be lot more beneficial in the upcoming future.

Santiago Solari has hailed Sergio Ramos ahead of the Real Madrid captain making his 600th appearance for the club.
Sergio Ramos has been one of the most influential defenders in the recent years. He has helped Real Madrid win three consecutive UEFA Champions League title, under Zidane. This season he has already scored 11 goals in all competitions after taking the penalty duties, after Ronaldo’s departure to Juventus in the summer transfer window. Ramos being a defender has an incredible no of goals under his name. He is among the top 11 goal scoring defenders of all time. Here is the full list.
“Playing 600 games for Real Madrid is not easy,” Solari told a news conference when asked about Ramos’ achievement. “This historic Real Madrid has the stamp of his character so we hope he can play many more games for Real Madrid.”
Real Madrid vice captain Marcelo has been linked with a move to Juventus after he lost his place in the starting XI to Sergio Reguilon. Marcelo has told Esporte Interativo he will leave if Madrid do not want him, but Solari denied being dissatisfied with the Brazil international. “Marcelo is great – he’s our vice-captain and an emblem of the club,” Solari added. “He has always put the club first and he is training well, like all the other players. Like I said, he’s great and we all like him. He works hard in every training session.”
No era solo un partido. No eran solo tres puntos. No era solo un rival. ¡El derbi para el @realmadrid! …y otro más a la cazuela 🍳 It wasn’t just a game. It wasn’t just three points. It wasn’t just a rival. #RealMadrid derby!
Real Madrid are unbeaten in seven games in all competitions. While Ajax are stumbling, losing two of their past three games including a 6-2 Eredivisie thrashing at Feyenoord.
“That’s what this profession is like, in football you have one game and another. Then when you lose it’s terrible, when you win it’s fine,” Solari continued. “Day to day, on the inside, we want to compete – and on the next day too. Tomorrow is very important for this competition and this is where we focus. Other things, we don’t pay a lot of attention to it as managers and players and it’s right to be like this.
💬📺 This is what @thibautcourtois had to say about tomorrow’s match against @AFCAjax_English! #RMTV https://t.co/6RWJWTbaGg
Solari further added : “I don’t think it’s a bad period for them, I don’t agree. I think they are having a good season. I’ve seen a lot of games and they play well, construct the play well and they have great players. This is football. There is always an opponent and you have to respect them all, just like the teams Ajax have played. I hope we play a game with a serious performance as we did three days ago, that’s my maximum hope. Football is day to day work. All we have to live for is the game tomorrow.”

So here were our best Xbox gaming consoles to buy in 2019 which you can easily find in the market. Still waiting? Go grab yourself the best Xbox for endless gaming which will perfectly suit your budget.
It felt like a never ending wait since the draw was made. But finally Champions League football is back in our lives. Lets take a look at the Round of 16 draws.
After a three month break, the Champions League is back! The Round of 16 gets underway with four mouth-watering first leg clashes on Wednesday and Thursday before the other eight teams play the first match of their ties the following week.
Here’s everything you need to know about the Round of 16 matches :
The fixtures :
The Rule :
Whoever scores more goals between the two sides over the two leg fixtures (with the second played three weeks after the first) will go through to the Quarter Finals. But don’t forget about the home and away goals rule. If the tie is level on aggregate goals after the two games, then whichever team has scored more goals away from their home will advance to the quarter finals. However, if both teams have scored the same amount of home and away goals, then extra time will be played at the conclusion of the second match. If no goals are scored in the extra 30 minutes, then the tie is decided on penalties.
The games which you can’t miss this week :
Manchester United v PSG : This tie is a perfect reminder of how quickly football can change. Six weeks ago, nobody gave Manchester United a chance. Now they’re the favourites. Paris Saint-Germain must cope without the injured Neymar and Edison Cavani and now Thomas Meunier to halt the surge of a revitalised Manchester United if the French champions are to avoid more pain in the Champions League last 16. Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has Paul Pogba, Anthony Martial and Marcus Rashford flying. Victor Lindelöf looks a different player. With Neymar and Cavani missing, the spotlight is on 20-year-old Mbappe to shine on the Champions League stage like he did in delivering the World Cup for France.
Ajax v Real Madrid : Real Madrid have steadied the ship after their disastrous start under Julen Lopetegui and will be buoyed by their derby win against Atlético on Saturday. It would typically be a clash of stars against prodigies but when they face each other in the Champions League last 16 on Wednesday, the difference will be harder to distinguish. Frenkie de Jong and Matthijs de Ligt will attempt to live up to already-swelling reputations while the likes of Donny van de Beek, Andre Onana and Kasper Dolberg could also enhance theirs. Vinicius Junior has had less time than Ajax’s De Jong, with only six starts in La Liga and one in the Champions League, but his impact has been arguably just as dramatic, the hype around the Brazilian already comparable. Experience and quality will make the difference on Wednesday as the Champions League kings aim to build on their three consecutive UCL wins.
Tottenham vs Borussia Dortmund : Both sides will be without their star men. Marco Reus will be missing for the Bundesliga leaders while Harry Kane remains sidelined after damaging ankle ligaments for the third successive year. Heung-min Son has been superb for Spurs with Christian Eriksen following close behind. For Dortmund, Jadon Sancho has taken centre stage. Tottenham have never been past the last 16 of either the Champions League or the Europa League since Pochettino arrived from Southampton in May 2014. Now Bundesliga leaders Dortmund, who visit Wembley for the Champions League last-16 first leg on Wednesday, stand between Pochettino and his first European quarter-final in what could be his last season with the north London club.
Roma vs Porto : After reaching the semi-finals of last season’s Champions League via a miracle victory over Barcelona, Serie A giants Roma will be hoping to replicate their success this time around. Unbeaten in their last six in the Serie A, they’ll be keen to translate their recent performances onto the European arena as they welcome a Porto side who haven’t lost a game since October. The Portuguese side have never lost to Roma, and boast a pair of veterans brimming with experience in the competition who will be key in extending that run. Former Real Madrid teammates Iker Casillas and Pepe, who boast 268 Champions League games between them, have reunited at Porto and loom as key factors in the clash. Roma fans were less than impressed when Radja Nainggolan left for Inter, but beyond the €35m transfer fee, Nicolo Zaniolo also arrived. With 21 appearances, four goals and two assists, Zaniolo will likely be starting against Porto on Tuesday. Blessed with incredible technique, vision and a dreamy left foot, he is definitely one to watch out for.

Android is the most common name you ever heard in the field of the mobile OS. Insect nowadays Android users are rapidly increasing in the comparison of iOS. Through the entire journey, it gets updated several times.
In the case of naming Android follows the alphabetical order, hope you noticed. The last version is Android Pie. As per the sequence, the next update should predict starting from ‘q’. The full name is not declared yet.
As mentioned earlier the uses of Android is increasing rapidly day by day. Though the reason is of its new application fields, its continuous upgrading and improving nature takes a little percentage too. After all, a small thing can bring a job change, right?
In update 10.0, the world may get some cool features used never before in android. Let’s discuss with detailing.
The Dark Theme:
Most of our regularly used apps just like YouTube have there inbuilt dark mode. Sometimes it looks pretty well. But for the entire smartphone dark theme, we used to use many launchers. But this may become history after launching 10.0 update.
Through this feature, you can enjoy dark beauty everywhere on your phone. Your eyes may get protected from the brightness sometime and can save battery life as well.
You will find the Dark Mode Activation box inside the Display option of Settings.
Desktop Mode:
You will find a new option called desktop mode. Basically, you can add an external display by availing this feature, though this feature is in the experimental stage.
Permissions Management:
The security system in the Android Q is going to be harder. They reconstructed the permission section more user-friendly and more accessible.
Now you can access all the permissions for different apps. You are thinking what’s new, right? In this version, you can actually manage the time duration. You can set when an app can access which permission and when not.
Development Option:
There are some new noticeable features added to the developer options. Two of them are Force Desktop Mode and Game Update Package Preferences. Both of these options’ features are not clear yet.
In the game update package preferences, you find an option to select a graphics Driver.
Accessibility:
‘Time to take action’ and ‘Time to read’ are the new addition in the accessibility option. Through the first one, you can set “how long to show messages that ask you to take action, but only visible temporarily.” And through the second one, you can set “how much time you want to read and take action on messages that automatically go away.”
Lastly, all the information mentioned is only leaks and remorse. Android has not officially announced anything yet. We can expect that the maximum of these features will come to us and make your experience better.

Amazon India and Flipkart have displayed the pre-launch promo of the Vivo V15 Pro and from there we can see that the device will have the world’s first pop-up 32MP front camera, triple lens rear cameras, and in-display fingerprint scanner and it seems that they have modified the Vivo NEX with few specs modified in it.
A live hands-on image of the Vivo V15 Pro was spotted on Weibo this week, showing off the back of the device in a shiny gradient blue colour. The rear panel is likely going to be glass or glass-like and the blue colour pictured looks deeper and darker compared to the blue we have seen in renders and the promo video. We can also clearly see the AI triple camera setup in a strip on the top left side, and the pop-up selfie camera.
The triple camera system on the back will see a 48MP primary sensor, an 8MP secondary camera and a ToF (Time-of-Flight) camera for 3D depth mapping. It seems the primary camera will use pixel binning to offer a large 1.6-micron pixel and an effective output of 12MP. Apart from the camera module and the Vivo logo, the rear panel looks clean and glossy. As mentioned, the phone will not get a physical fingerprint sensor but an in-display sensor, which is Vivo go-to choice now.

Real Madrid face their city rival when they make the short trip to the north of the Spanish capital to take on Atletico Madrid. Who will steal the show? And here’s when and where you can watch the match live!
Real Madrid will travel to bitter rivals Atletico Madrid on Saturday afternoon knowing that a win at the Wanda Metropolitano would see them move above Diego Simeone’s side in La Liga. Atletico Madrid have been Barcelona’s closest challengers in the league this season. But their defeat at Real Betis last weekend means that Los Blancos have the chance to rise into second position in Spain’s top flight.
Santiago Solari’s men returned with a 1-1 draw from the Camp Nou in their semi-final Copa del Rey first leg with Barcelona in midweek. But Real Madrid did not have the most ideal of starts to 2019, drawing with Villarreal and losing to Real Sociedad in the league. Since then, however, their only defeat was against Leganes in the second leg of their Copa del Rey quarter-final, which did not matter too much when considering that they still advanced on aggregate.
Ahead of Wednesday’s 1-1 draw with Barcelona, Real Madrid had won five games in a row, including their last four in the league to close the ground on Atletico Madrid. Indeed, they have scored 10 times in their last four league victories, the last of which was a 3-0 success at home to Alaves last weekend.
However, Diego Simeone’s side are themselves six points behind leaders Barcelona in the league and therefore defeat would heavily damage either side’s chances of catching the Catalan giants. Atletico Madrid’s absence from the semi-finals of the Copa del Rey means that they have had a free week ahead of this match, while they are not in Champions League last-16 action until February 20, meaning that they should be well-rested and fully focused on this weekend’s huge Madrid derby.
When and at what time is the Madrid Derby? The Madrid Derby will be played on 9th February, Saturday and it will start at 8:45 pm India time.
Where and how to watch the live TV coverage of Atletico Madrid vs Real Madrid? Which TV channel will have the match live? The match will be broadcasted in India on Sony Ten 2 / Ten 2 HD.
What will be the likely lineups for the Madrid sides? Atletico Madrid : Oblak, Arias, Gimenez, Godin, Hernandez, Lemar, Thomas, Rodri, Saul, Griezmann, Morata Real Madrid : Courtois, Carvajal, Varane, Ramos, Marcelo, Modric, Casemiro, Kroos, Vazquez, Benzema, Vinicius
It is a huge period of the season for Real Madrid when considering that they will travel to Ajax next week for the first leg of their Champions League last-16 clash. Solari’s side will then face Girona and Levante in the league before welcoming Barcelona for the second leg of their Copa del Rey semi-final at the end of this month. Fatigue might well come into it this weekend as Madrid have played a lot of football in recent weeks, but Los Blancos are full of confidence and will be desperate to return to second position in the table.
