Everything is correlated (2014–23)

“Why summaries of research on psychological theories are often uninterpretable”, Meehl (also discussed in Cohen’s paper “The Earth is Round (p < 0.05)”): Problem 6. Crud factor: In the social sciences and arguably in the biological sciences, “everything correlates to some extent with everything else.” This truism, which I have found no competent psychologist disputes given 5 minutes reflection, does not apply to pure experimental studies in which attributes that the subjects bring with them are

Google Chose Durability Over Sleekness for the Pixel 10 Pro Fold, and That's OK

When Samsung debuted the Galaxy Z Fold 7 last month, the spotlight was on how thin and light that foldable phone is. On Wednesday, Google took a different approach when unveiling the Pixel 10 Pro Fold, focusing more on internal upgrades like a larger 5,015-mAh battery and an IP68 rating for dust and water resistance -- a major step in the world of foldables -- while sticking roughly with the design of the Pixel 9 Pro Fold. Both Samsung's and Google's updates are designed to make foldable phones

Don’t hold your breath for a new Pixel Tablet

Rita El Khoury / Android Authority TL;DR It’s been over two years now since Google released the Pixel Tablet Despite hearing from sources about work on a follow-up, the Pixel Tablet 2 was seemingly canceled In a new interview, Google executives confirm that tablet development is on pause.

Google AI Mode is expanding to 180 countries and adding an agentic restaurant finder

Google’s seemingly unrelenting quest to infuse AI into every aspect of your online life just got a lot more global in scope, with the company expanding its AI Mode in Search to over 180 new countries .

Here’s how Google Photo’s new Tinder-like swiping feature works (APK teardown)

Edgar Cervantes / Android Authority TL;DR Google Photos is getting a swiping mechanism to keep or delete photos, and we got it working. With this, you will be able to weed out unwanted photos by swiping left on them. It currently lets you keep or delete images and videos from daily or monthly clusters in the Google Photos app. Among the many reasons to use Google Photos is the ease of backing up valuable memories to Drive and accessing them across multiple devices. But enabling automatic upl

Best Standing Desks of 2025

What I like: When cable organization is the goal, the Autonomous SmartDesk 5 Pro is the desk. All of the cable management items, like a 3M cable organizer, cable management tray and magnetized cable runner, come included with the desk. With all the cables managed and out of the way, you have a lot of desktop space to play with. The SmartDesk 5 Pro is an electric motor desk that is quiet, quick and very easy to use and has three memory options. When you're choosing your heights and free-adjusti

Spirit Halloween Has Made the Most Affordable ‘Jurassic Park’ Goggles Replica We’ve Seen

The iconic T. rex escape scene is seared into the collective core memory of Jurassic Park fans. Steven Spielberg’s blockbuster franchise is full of memorable moments, from the jiggling water to the lawyer running to the bathroom. But if you, like me, had the film as one of your earliest and most life-changing cinema-going experiences, there’s not a detail forgotten—especially not the goggles. You know the ones that Tim grabs and the lawyer tells him to put back, because if they’re heavy, “they’r

AI website builder Lovable increasingly abused for malicious activity

Cybercriminals are increasingly abusing the AI-powered Lovable website creation and hosting platform to generate phishing pages, malware-dropping portals, and various fraudulent websites. The malicious sites created through the platform impersonate large and recognizable brands, and feature traffic filtering systems like CAPTCHA to keep bots out.

Forget the Pixel 10 Pro Fold. Foldables Should Look Like the Microsoft Surface Duo

Google almost got it right with the first Pixel Fold. As Google unveils its latest foldable, the Pixel 10 Pro Fold, at this year's Made by Google event, I keep thinking about the original Pixel Fold. Released in 2023, it was far from a perfect phone. It was underpowered, had a thick inner bezel and couldn't open completely flat. Even then, it was a beautiful device with a shiny stainless steel chassis that felt substantial in the hand. Not only that, it was wide. The passport-like form factor m

Crypto firms urge UK to form national stablecoin strategy to avoid falling behind U.S.

The U.K. should establish a national stablecoin strategy to enable adoption of the tokens and avoid falling behind the U.S. on the disruptive new technology, several major crypto firms said Wednesday. In an open letter addressed to Finance Minister Rachel Reeves, 30 crypto industry figures said that the U.K. "must act now to avoid being a rule-taker rather than a rule-maker in the digital asset era." "To ensure the UK is at the forefront, we believe a proactive, coordinated national strategy i
