16 year old guy develops search engine:believed to be better than Google

The moment you think of a search engine, it's Google that comes to our mind.But this time, you have come out of it. Meet Anmol Tukrel, the guy who developed a search engine that is 20% more accurate(average) than Google.Yes,this sixteen year old guy is crazy about it when we guys are still on the basics.

The fact is that Anmol is still doing his 10th grade

It all started when Anmol developed this search engine which he claims to have taken a couple of months to design and around 60 hours to code as part of his submission to the Google Science Fair, a competition that is open to students for age group 13-18 years.
Want to know the kit he used to develop it?Simple-A computer with 1 gigabyte of RAM, a python-language development environment,a spreadsheet program and a access to Google and the New York Times.
To test the accuracy,he limited his search to this year's news articles from New York Times.He created fictitious users with different interests and the corresponding web histories. Anmol then fed this information to Google and the search engine he developed.Finally, it was his own search engine that was found to be accurate.It is also said that the algorithm would understand what user would like before it serves the results by going deep into the content of the text.

Looks like Anmol is going to have a great future ahead.He has submitted his paper to the International High School Journal Of Science and hopes to study Computer Science at the Stanford University.

Android Vulnerability now can steal your fingerprints

Recent research has revealed a lot on on the vulnerabilities on android.Adding to this thing is a serious bug that would steal the finger print,a feature used to lock your device. Biometric security has been the latest trend as well as the best way to secure your device in the current tech world.But now,even this has been under scanner.But the vulnerabilities in android has been a issue on this security system.

This research was to be announced in the recent Black Hat conference that was held in Los Vegas in which hackers can steal the fingerprints using four methods.One being named as the 'fingerprint sensor spying attack' which can remotely steal the fingerprint data.

The attack has been confirmed in two most popular smartphones-Samsung Galaxy S5 and the HTC One Max..Although only two devices have been reported,it can be said that the fingerprint sensors must be reviewed.It's also said that affected manufacturers have patched the vulnerability and there is nothing to worry for now.

If you guys really want to know all the details on this,view the presentation slide and the research paper.
