Today's Story Highlights

Sony's 48MP Sensor Delivers Greater Detail Despite Shrunken Pixels
Mobile phone cameras are about to get a significant performance boost.
Sony on Monday introduced a 48-megapixel sensor for cellphone cameras
that measures less than one-third of an inch diagonally. The sensor is
slated for release in September. To pack that many pixels into such
tight quarters, Sony had to shrink their size to 8 microns. Shrinking
pixel sizes usually results in performance degradation, not improvement.

CEO Ousters: Is Elon Musk Next?
For pretty much my entire career, CEOs have been almost invulnerable.
Even when Apple founder Steve Jobs tried to get then-CEO John Scully
fired from Apple, he lost and got fired himself. I've watched CEOs at
companies with zero-tolerance employee dating policies have affairs with
subordinates and get a pass. Things have changed. Almost every week,
another CEO bites the dust for misbehavior.

The Pain and Potential of Making a 180-Degree Policy Shift
Photo-hosting service Photobucket in May quietly restored third-party
hosting of photos, reversing its unpopular year-old policy that required
users to pay nearly $400 for hosting privileges. Many irate users
claimed their photos were "taken hostage." Hosted photos on blogs,
forums and other sites were replaced by an image of a dial indicating
the hosted data quota had been surpassed.

Samsung's Foldable Smartphone Slated for Next Year: Report
Samsung plans to launch a foldable-screen smartphone early next year,
according to reports, possibly priced around $1,500. It will resemble a
book, with the main display inside the covers, said Ken Hyers, director
of the emerging device strategies service at Strategy Analytics. The
exterior will have a smaller notification display on the front, and a
camera, or cameras, on the back.

Google Adds Kubernetes to Rebranded Cloud Marketplace
Google has announced the rebranding and expansion of its Cloud Launcher
platform. Going forward, it will be known as the "Google Cloud Platform
Marketplace," or "GCP Marketplace." It will offer production-ready
commercial Kubernetes apps, promising simplified deployment, billing and
third-party licensing. Google's goal is to make containers accessible to
everyone, especially the enterprise.
