Update, 8/17/2025 @ 10:57 AM: After his old Twitter posts were discovered, Bloodshot writer Mauro Mantella has since deleted the account and posted an apology on Instagram. “I want to offer my most sincere apologies. I know I made a mistake, but at no point did I intend to spread a message of hate,” it begins. In his apology, he revealed he first wrote the issue’s script in Spanish, then “changed it a bit” when converting it to English. This conversion led to him “borrowing a common phrase used
It looks like something straight out of a Ouija board horror movie, but frosty—researchers have figured out how to make ice move by itself. A video capturing the creepy dynamic features an ice disk melting on a metal surface etched with an asymmetrical herringbone pattern. The ice and its small puddle slowly start to move sideways before suddenly picking up speed and slingshotting across the metal plate. The researchers suggest that this sort of independent movement could one day generate power
TEK IMAGE/SCIENCE PHOTO LIBRARY / Science Photo Library via Getty Images ZDNET's key takeaways People can't tell AI-generated from doctor responses.

For many, the perfect cup of coffee is the best way to start their day. But if you don’t have a lot of kitchen counter space, travel frequently, or spend your weekends camping, the ideal brew isn’t always within reach. At-home Coffee makers are large, bulky, and expensive. And while portable espresso makers aren’t a new concept, the manual work and water temperature limitations get in the way. Unless you get the OutIn Nano portable espresso maker and the Fino Coffee grinder. Having won leadersh
August 17, 2025 MCP tools with dependent types This summer, I’ve been playing a bit with writing an MCP server for Defold editor. The idea was to give Claude access to evaluating Lua code in the editor scripting context, so it can use the APIs available for querying and modifying game content. The best word to describe the experience is entertaining — it has a very vague idea of the available APIs, and prefers to experiment by evaluating code instead of browsing documentation, which results in

I'm no stranger to cutting costs when it's time to buy furniture. But, when a recent CNET survey found out that roughly six in 10 US adults are willing to invest in their bed setup, as a sleep expert, I knew what I had to recommend: buy a bed frame. Now, if you're wondering why? There are many reasons why a bed frame is a key part of your bedding setup. A bed frame's purpose is to protect you and your mattress from the downsides of sleeping on the floor. Not only that, but mattresses are expens

Teeth whitening kits aren't exactly what most people would call riveting. I must say I was blown away by the entire Smile Brilliant process and package. I wasn't aware you could get custom-fitted whitening trays anywhere other than a dentist's office, but you can with Smile Brilliant. Wearing these whitening trays is just like wearing a retainer. They fit perfectly to your teeth because they're designed using putty impressions you make of your teeth. The process works like this: You order a kit
pgautoupgrade This is a PostgreSQL Docker image to automatically upgrade your database. Its whole purpose in life is to automatically detect the version of PostgreSQL used in the existing PostgreSQL data directory, then automatically upgrade it (if needed) to the required version of PostgreSQL using pg_upgrade with the --link option. After this, the PostgreSQL server starts and runs as per normal. The old cluster data will be removed. The reason this Docker image is needed, is because the of
TL;DR · On identical hardware and data, ClickHouse matches PostgreSQL for single-row UPDATEs and is up to 4,000× faster in our tests for bulk UPDATEs. · Why it matters: Bulk updates are common in OLTP workloads, and ClickHouse’s columnar design + parallelism make them far faster. · Caveat: PostgreSQL is fully transactional by default; ClickHouse isn’t. Results compare each engine’s native execution model, not identical transaction guarantees. PostgreSQL is the most popular open-source

Two sides that enjoyed somewhat unexpected top-10 finishes last season go head-to-head on Sunday as Nottingham Forest hosts Brentford in the English Premier League. Below, we'll outline the best live TV streaming services for watching Premier League games as they happen, wherever you are in the world, and how to use a VPN if it's not available where you are. Forest were last season's surprise package, booking a long-overdue return to European football by finishing in seventh. While Nuno Espir
Honorable Mentions Not everything we test makes the cut as a pick, but that doesn't mean it's a bad mattress topper. Here are a few that our testers slept on and still got a good night's sleep with, but didn't love as much as the picks above. Avocado Alpaca Topper for $809: If you're looking for a mattress topper that's extra soft, WIRED reviewer Scott Gilbertson recommends the Avocado Alpaca Mattress Topper. He says it's one of the softest things he's ever slept on, and that it's like sleepin
A security researcher has released a partial proof of concept exploit for a vulnerability in the FortiWeb web application firewall that allows a remote attacker to bypass authentication. The flaw was reported responsibly to Fortinet and is now tracked as CVE-2025-52970. Fortinet released a fix on August 12. Security researcher Aviv Y named the vulnerability FortMajeure and describes it as a "silent failure that wasn’t meant to happen." Technically, it is an out-of-bounds read in FortiWeb’s coo
Spoiler: I have data from the story in the title of this post, it's mostly what I expected it to be, I've just added it to HIBP where I've called it "Data Troll", and I'm going to give everyone a lot more context below. Here goes: Headlines one-upping each other on the number of passwords exposed in a data breach have become somewhat of a sport in recent years. Each new story wants to present a number that surpasses the previous story, and the clickbait cycle continues. You can see it coming a
Authors: Moussa Koulako Bala Doumbouya, Dan Jurafsky, Christopher D. Manning Paper: https://arxiv.org/abs/2506.11035 Once a year, some interesting architecture inevitably appears where they change some fundamental building block. This happened with KAN last year, where they changed the parameterization of the neuron activation function (though it's unclear what the outcome is after a year — many follow-up works seem to have appeared, but KANs haven't displaced anyone anywhere yet). The same is
After several days of working its way across the open and at times hostile Atlantic Ocean this week, Hurricane Erin found more favorable conditions and exploded in intensity on Friday night. Shortly before noon on Saturday, the National Hurricane Center declared that Erin had reached Category 5 status, the most powerful kind of hurricane. This determination is based on sustained winds, which were measured by a US Air Force Hurricane Hunter aircraft on Saturday at 160 mph. There is some good ne
Climate Change Has Driven the Amazon Rainforest to the Edge of a "Tipping Point" It's at risk of turning into a "savanna-like environment." Dried Up Husk The famously verdant Amazon rainforest is in danger of transforming into a dry savannah as various environmental indicators, such as deforestation and climate change, are pushing the ecosystem to a dangerous tipping point, according to new research. In a study published in the journal Geophysical Research Letters, as spotted by Live Science
President Donald Trump's cost-cutting measures to decrease the federal budget have already been backfiring. Federal workers are being fired and rehired. Elon Musk's so-called Department of Government Efficiency has been deemed an utter failure as well. And now, the United States' lead in AI technologies and Trump's own policy proposal to boost AI are under threat due to Trump's anti-science agenda, The Guardian reports. Last month, the Trump administration released its "AI Action Plan," a poli
Andy Walker / Android Authority Samsung’s smartwatches (and the Galaxy Ring) are compatible with most Android phones, but you’ll only get the full experience when paired with Samsung Galaxy smartphones. This applies to older Galaxy Watch models up to the latest Galaxy Watch 8 series and Galaxy Watch Ultra 2025. But what are these features, and are they worth considering switching smartphones for? Do you use a Galaxy Watch with a Samsung smartphone? 65 votes Yes, I do. 40 % No, I pair my Galaxy
The Galaxy S25's biggest flex that I noticed while testing is it shares many of the same attributes as its pricier counterparts, the S25 Plus and S25 Ultra – but it does so for several hundred dollars less. You'll find features like the AI Select tool, Audio Eraser and deeper Gemini integration across all of Samsung's S25 devices, as well as a custom Snapdragon 8 Elite processor and 12GB RAM – making the smaller phone of the bunch still seem pretty mighty. And while the Galaxy S25 might look
If You Have a Dog, Consider These Kits I don’t have a dog, so I didn't try these at-home DNA test kits for dogs, but these are the kits specifically for dogs from Basepaws and Wisdom Panel, the two companies I've tested for my cats. How Does a DNA Testing Kit Work? Pet DNA tests rely on pet owners collecting cells for testing through a cheek swab, where the sample is put into a sealed stabilizing or preserving fluid for transit. You’ll mail the sample back to the lab in the prepaid envelope.
C. Scott Brown / Android Authority TL;DR Bookshop.org, an online bookstore, was launched in January 2020 to help independent bookstores survive Amazon. Now the company may be introducing its first physical e-reader, presenting a direct competitor to the Amazon Kindle. There is currently a blank landing page for an e-reader visible on the Bookshop.org site. In a compelling new development for e-book readers, Bookshop.org, known for championing independent bookstores, might soon bring a fresh
The trillions of microbes living in your gut are known as your gut microbiome, and they play a huge role in your well-being. Cleveland Clinic microbiome expert Gail Cresci describes these microbes as "little pets living inside your intestinal tract." They help break down food, regulate inflammation, support immunity and even produce essential compounds like vitamins and hormones. Since gut health is essential to overall health, it's important to pay attention to signs that it may be unhealthy.
The best early Labor Day mattress sales are nearly here, and if you've been looking for a sign from the universe to upgrade your bed, consider this it. I've been a professional mattress tester for five years, so I'm plugged in to what's going on in the mattress world (we're constantly scoping out new additions to our best mattresses list) and can keep track of the sales that really are the ones to watch … and which ones you can skip until Cyber Monday.
