The AI Bubble Bursting Would Actually Be Incredible for the Economy, Economist Says

futurism.com Unknown 2025-09-19 19:04:25

The US economy is absolutely screaming. Late rent payments and loan delinquencies are skyrocketing, and the top 10 percent of earners account for nearly half of all consumer spending. In early September, the Bureau of Labor Statistics reported that the nation added over 900,000 fewer jobs than previously thought from March 2024 to 2025. Yet, as bad as things might feel for common folk, financial markets have never looked better — the tech-dominated Nasdaq continues to reach record highs, and th

The best ergonomic keyboards for 2025

engadget.com Unknown 2025-09-22 18:01:26

A simple experiment can tell you whether an ergonomic keyboard could be more comfortable for you: With your elbows hugged into your sides, bring your thumbs to touch in front of you. Now angle your elbows slightly outward and separate your hands. If the latter position feels better, you may appreciate the design of an ergonomic keyboard. These boards split, tilt and/or angle the keys in so your shoulders and chest feel more open and your forearms and wrists stay aligned. Some ergonomic keyboa

When a job seeker named Conor recently applied for a content architecture position, something felt off right away. For one thing, he got an offer for a virtual job interview just minutes after he applied, which seemed like a suspiciously quick turnaround time in today's beleaguered job market.

Small, affordable, efficient: A lot to like about the 2026 Nissan Leaf

Nissan provided flights from Austin to San Diego and then to Washington, DC, and accommodation so Ars could drive the Nissan Leaf. Ars does not accept paid editorial content. SAN DIEGO—The original Nissan Leaf was a car with a mission. Long before Elon Musk set his sights on Tesla selling vast numbers of electric vehicles to the masses, then-Nissan CEO Carlos Ghosn wanted Nissan to shift half a million Leafs a year in the early 2010s.

If the AI Industry Fails, It Could Take the Rest of Us Down With It

Don't let AI critics tell you it's good for nothing: the amount of money being spent on AI infrastructure is so enormous that it’s literally propping up the US economy. The drawback, of course, is that if the AI industry fails, it could drag the rest of the economy down with it. In 2024, the S&P 500 grew by an incredible 24 percent — what the investment firm Charles Schwab understatedly called a "very good year."

Can a Despised Autocrat Consolidate Power?

Yesterday I wrote about Scott Bessent, the Treasury secretary, and made some unflattering observations about him. So it might be worth mentioning a new incident, reported by Politico. Apparently Bessent confronted Bill Pulte, head of the Federal Housing Finance Agency — a piece of work himself — at a fancy dinner, accusing Pulte of bad-mouthing him to the president: “Why the fuck are you talking to the president about me? Fuck you,” Bessent told Pulte. “I’m gonna punch you in your fucking face.

One of the most important properties of a database is durability. Durability means that after a transaction commits, you can be confident that, absent catastrophic hardware failure, the changes made by the commit won't be lost.
