Using Google Drive without internet feature is out of beta

Google Drive new features

The update will allow users to access files using the browser even when offline. Google back in 2019 had begun beta testing the Google Drive offline feature. In a significant boost to the dynamics of the application, Google Drive will now be offering assistance for offline mode. Google in a recent post has declared that users will now be able to access PDFs, images and Office files even while using the application, offline, following the latest update. The company also notified that to avail benefit, users need to first mark the files to be made available offline. 

Google Drive is one of the most popular cloud storage platforms. Part of productivity apps offered by Google, it allows users to backup, sync, and access files on different devices. It is also a popular tool used to share files, photos, PDFs and other documents. Another added advantage is that multiple users can work on the same file at the same time. Google recently announced an important update for Google Drive. In a blog post, Google said that Google Drive is getting an offline mode. This means that users will be now able to access documents and certain files even without the internet. For those unaware, Google started beta testing offline mode for Drive in 2019. It enabled users to access documents offline when using Google Drive on the web.The feature is now getting enhancements and rolling out to a wider audience. 

How to access Google Drive files offline (without internet)?

To begin with, users must download the Google Drive app for desktop on their laptops. For the files they want to access offline, users will have to mark them as ‘Available offline’ in Drive settings on the web. “ When you mark these files available offline, you can easily open these files from your browser even when you aren’t connected to the internet”, Google says.

NVIDIA Tesla V100 - First Tensor Core GPU

  8x NVIDIA Tesla V100 32GB Server As we all know NVIDIA processor are so famous now a days. It give a perfect gaming performance and people used it worldwide. The thing is that it is not only use in personal computer but also at data center, where so many super computer are present for providing services. So, NVIDIA Tesla V100 is a first tensor core GPU. It is especially built to focus on AI, High Performance Computing ( HPC ) and graphics. It is powered by NVIDIA Volta Architecture. It comes with configuration 16 and 32GB and have a performance up to 100 CPUs in single GPU. A single server node with V100 GPUs can replace 60 CPUs nodes. DATA CENTER GPUs Image © NVIDIA NVIDIA V100 for NVLINK  Performance with NVIDIA GPU Boost for double precision is  7.8 teraflops and single precision is 15.7 teraflops. Deep learning performance boost is 125 teraflops. Interconnect bandwidth with bidirectional is 300 GB/s. It have memory capacity of 32/16 GB HBM2 with bandwidth 900GB/s. I...

The Amazing Vantablack Material...!!

Vantablack is a material developed by Surrey NanoSystems in the United Kingdom and is one of the darkest substances known, absorbing up to 99.96% of visible light (at 663 nm if the light is perpendicular to the material).The name is a compound of the acronym VANTA (vertically aligned carbon nanotube arrays) and the color black. Vantablack is not actually a color pigment or a paint, but a coating of carbon nanotubes. These have the property of absorbing incident light almost completely. Against a deep black background, objects coated in Vantablack material seem to disappear, as the perception of spatial depth is lost. This is because the human eye perceives shapes coated in Vantablack to be two-dimensional. IUPAC Name is Activated carbon high density skeleton. Other names are Multiwalled carbon nanotube (MWCNT), Vantablack S-VIS and Vantablack S-IR. It is insoluble in water. When light strikes Vantablack, instead of bouncing off, it becomes trapped and is continually deflected amo...

Operating System as Extended machine and Resource manager

Operating system is software that runs in kernel mode even that is not always true. Part of the problem is that operating system perform two essential unrelated function. We can say that operating system is system software that manages computer hardware, software resources, and provide common services for computer program.  The Operating System as an Extended machine The architecture of most computers at the machine language level is not developed and difficult to program, especially for input/output. To make this point more concrete, consider modern SATA hard disks used on most computers. Only the insane the programmer would try to mess with hard disks at the hardware level. Therefore disk driver - a piece of software deals with hardware and provide interface to read and write disks blocks. Operating System  contain many drivers for control input/output device. Macintosh hardware are complicated. Real processors, memories, disks, and other devices are very complicated and it...
