Bet you didn't have this on your 2025 bingo card. Yesterday, a baffling video started making the rounds on social media showing Tennessee representative Tim Burchett casually claim that alien entities are here on Earth, and that they're rising out of the ocean. "What if, these are entities that are here on this earth, that have been on this earth for who knows how long, and we think they're coming from way out," he says while strolling along the streets of DC, the Capital rotunda glowing in th

Rereading books

news.ycombinator.com Max Girkins 2025-09-15 14:08:55

How arrogant would you have to be to think you’ve gained everything from a book on your first reading? A wildly intelligent friend once said this to me and it struck home. A seemingly obvious point I’d ignored for years changed my approach to reading in a way that has considerably improved my life. If you already reread books regularly, feel free to skip this.

Numeral raises $35M to automate sales tax with AI

Sam Ross, the co-founder and CEO of Numeral, came up with the idea for his sales tax compliance startup while traveling the world after having worked as a product manager at Airbnb. “This was early 2018, where you didn’t have remote work like you do today,” he told TechCrunch in an interview. Direct-to-consumer businesses were a big trend then, so he supported his travel dreams by running several self-funded e-commerce brands from the road.

Jaguar Smashes Record for the Species’ Longest Recorded Swim, Baffling Scientists

gizmodo.com Ellyn Lapointe 2025-09-19 21:12:47

Despite what they say about cats and water, jaguars are powerful swimmers. These predators rarely stray from the rivers and wetlands that permeate their rainforest habitat, and they readily dive in to hunt for prey. Usually, these dips are relatively brief: Until now, the farthest jaguar swim on record was just 656 feet (200 meters). But now, scientists have observed a jaguar in Brazil smashing that record as if they were a feline Michael Phelps, with the big cat seemingly paddling for more tha

Nothing’s New Ear 3 Fix One of the Worst Things About Wireless Earbuds

gizmodo.com Raymond Wong 2025-09-19 21:33:10

As I said in my AirPods Pro 3 review, wireless earbuds have reached a ceiling. Generally, the basics—sound, active noise cancellation (ANC), and battery life—can only be improved by so much each generation. The feature that arguably gets the least attention is microphone quality. I’m constantly asking people on calls and Zooms whether they can hear me and if my voice sounds clear or not. The answer is typically no to both if I’m asking. Tech startup Nothing—you know them for their transparent wi

the Earth you walk on today might not be the same planet that was born 4.5 billion years ago.

Fed Chair Powell Says AI Probably a Factor in Concerning Unemployment Rates

The latest jobs report showed that U.S. employers only added 22,000 jobs in August, down from the 79,000 in July, showing a dramatic slowing in hiring. It was the worst August report since the pandemic and it got the Federal Reserve Board concerned.
