Atari’s classic 1983 800XL is returning as a full-size $219.99 recreation with a mechanical keyboard, working cartridge slot, HDMI, USB loading, 25 built-in games, save states, rewind and Atari BASIC.

Google Cloud’s new Gemini agent can plan work, use tools, run code, operate across Workspace and third-party systems, coordinate sub-agents, and even receive its own enterprise identity, email and calendar.

Cable strain relief keeps gravity, movement, and bundle weight off ports, connectors, jackets, and terminations. Here is how J-hooks, vertical managers, lacing bars, Velcro, grips, and service loops protect fiber and Ethernet.

Service loops are intentional cable slack for maintenance, moves, retermination, and repairs. Here is how to store fiber and Ethernet slack without violating bend radius, blocking airflow, or creating a tangled rack.

Infineon’s new 27 kW three-phase AI server PSU reference design tops 98% peak efficiency, reaches 116 W/in³, adds a 20 ms energy buffer, and targets the shift toward 800 VDC and ±400 VDC rack architectures.

Conduit fill and cable-tray fill are related but not interchangeable. Here is how the 53%/31%/40% raceway rules differ from telecom pathway planning, future capacity, PoE heat, and tray loading.

Pulling tension, sidewall pressure, friction, rollers, cable grips and pull direction can damage fiber, Ethernet and power cable before the link is ever tested.

Cable bend radius is not one universal number. Fiber, Cat 6 Ethernet, and power cable can require very different curves depending on construction, diameter, pulling tension, voltage, and manufacturer specifications.

Candidates say take-home projects are stretching from short work samples into 10-, 20-, even 50-hour assignments. Here is where a useful skills test ends and unpaid interview work begins.
