Image: Vaio Would you believe today marks an entire decade since Sony spun out its Vaio computer brand? Vaio has stood for lightweight laptops pretty much ever since — and now the company’s announcing one of the lightest-ever portable monitors to go with them. The Vaio Vision Plus 14 goes on sale today in Japan as a 14-inch, 1920 x 1200 USB-C monitor that weighs just 0.72 pounds (325g). That’s less than half as much as most of the monitors you’ll find in a typical “best portable monitor” list and notably lighter than the 13.3-inch, 1.08-pound (490g) Asus ZenScreen OLED MQ13AH, despite having a larger screen. The Vaio is also just 12.4mm thick (0.49in) at its widest point and 3.9mm (0.15in) at its thinnest. Images: Vaio The... Continue reading…

Amazon CEO Andy Jassy. | Photo by Michael M. Santiago / Getty Images A couple of months ago, I was sitting in the audience at a tech conference in San Fransisco watching Bloomberg’s Emily Chang interview Reid Hoffman. She asked about Microsoft’s hiring of the team behind Inflection, a would-be OpenAI competitor that Hoffman co-founded. It was an acquisition in everything but name, clearly designed to avoid the scrutiny of antitrust regulators. Not only had Microsoft (where Hoffman is a board member) hired most of Inflection’s employees — it also licensed the startup’s technology in a way that seemed designed to make its investors whole. Speaking with Chang that day onstage, Hoffman predicted that what happened to Inflection will become a “pattern” for future AI deals. We are seeing that pattern play out... Continue reading…

This buttery Vanilla Wafer Cake uses a box of Vanilla Wafers instead of flour. Shredded coconut and chopped pecans get mixed into the batter and it is baked up in a bundt pan. This is seriously one of the most delicious cakes I’ve ever eaten. I think I gained about 5 pounds the week I made this cake because I kept going back for just one more little sliver. It’s positively addicting! The texture is wonderfully moist and dense and the flavor is fabulous. Vanilla Wafer Cake Recipe This is a recipe that’s been around for quite a few years and it is similar to a pound cake, only I think it is much, much better. How To Serve Vanilla Wafer Cake doesn’t have any icing and it really doesn’t need any. Maybe a dollop of whipped cream, but that is all. This cake bakes up wonderfully moist and sweet and it will stay fresh for days. It’s sturdy like a pound cake, making it a good choice for taking to potlucks. Recipe Tips Walnuts can be used in place of pecans. This cake has a tendency to want to stick to the pan. Be sure you use a good quality nonstick bundt pan and grease it well. I have good luck using Baker’s Joy Spray with Flour. How To Store Wrap it well and it can be stored at room temperature for 4 days. It also freezes well. Freeze for up to 3 months.
