9 Best Foods for Coping With Migraines and Headaches, According to Experts

While eating a specific food or changing your diet alone won't cure you of migraines or headaches, it can be one piece of the puzzle that provides relief. "The most important thing I tell patients is that migraines are highly individualized," says Dr. Nicholas Church, a board-certified member of the American Board of Family Medicine and the American Academy of Family Physicians. "What helps one person may not help another, and what's a trigger for one might be therapeutic for someone else." Tha

Scientists once hoarded pre-nuclear steel, and now we’re hoarding pre-AI content

Former Cloudflare executive John Graham-Cumming recently announced that he launched a website, lowbackgroundsteel.ai, that treats pre-AI, human-created content like a precious commodity—a time capsule of organic creative expression from a time before machines joined the conversation. "The idea is to point to sources of text, images and video that were created prior to the explosion of AI-generated content," Graham-Cumming wrote on his blog last week. The reason? To preserve what made non-AI medi

The Best Motorola Phones (2025), Tested and Reviewed

Motorola phones often play third (or fourth) fiddle to Samsung and Google, but the winds are changing. Motorola is now one of the fastest-growing mobile companies in the world, and the company claims its Razr folding smartphones are the number one in the flip category in North America. The company has also been experimenting with colorful Android phones and fun textures, making its devices stand out from the sea of boring glass handsets.

Make little apps for you and your friends

Software is important to people. Most of us spend our workdays in front of computers. We use the computer in our pocket tens if not hundreds of times every day. The apps we use are almost exclusively mass-market, sold on an app-store, made for thousands if not millions of users. Or they are enterprise apps that are custom-built for hundreds of thousands of dollars. But there isn’t really any equivalent of home-made software — apps made lovingly by you for your friends and family. Apps that aren

Nothing Phone 3 will get the company’s best software update promise to date

Max Jambor on X TL;DR Nothing has confirmed that the Phone 3 will get a 5+7 update policy, which most likely means five years of Android OS updates and seven years of security patches. This is the longest software support for any Nothing phone to date. The device will be powered by the Snapdragon 8s Gen 4, which the company claims outperforms the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 in several areas. In a big leap forward for longevity, Nothing’s Co-Founder and Head of Marketing, Akis Evangelidis, has confirm

Proofs Without Words

The following demonstrate proofs of various identities and theorems using pictures, inspired from this gallery. Nichomauss' Theorem: the sum of the first cubes can be written as the square of the sum of the first integers, a statement that can be written as . Here, we use the same re-arrangement as the first proof on this page (the sum of first odd integers is a square). Here's another re-arrangement to see this: This also suggests the following alternative proof:

Strangers in the Middle of a City: The John and Jane Does of L.A. Medical Center

He had a buzz cut and brown eyes, a stubbly beard and a wrestler’s build. He did not have a wallet or phone; he could not state his name. He arrived at Los Angeles General Medical Center one cloudy day this winter just as thousands of people do every year: alone and unknown. Some 130,000 people are brought each year to L.A. General’s emergency room. Many are unconscious, incapacitated or too unwell to tell staff who they are. Nearly all these Jane and John Does are identified within 48 hours

Best Budget Smartwatches: Top Cheap Picks

There are plenty of affordable smartwatches out there, but only a few are actually worth your time.

I'm an Anime Collector. 3 AI Phone Features I Used While Visiting Tokyo

I love collecting Japanese anime merch. I'm also a tech creator and an educator who loves using technology to make my life easier. On a recent trip to Tokyo, I decided to use AI features on my phone to help me navigate the city. I've visited Japan six times in recent years, and as an avid fan and consumer of Japanese anime and pop culture, I fully intend to visit many more times for general tourism, pop-up events, specialty museums and parks. But my earliest visits to Tokyo were overwhelming an

Nothing Phone 3 processor confirmed: How is it a ‘true flagship’?

Supplied by Nothing TL;DR Nothing has confirmed that the Nothing Phone 3 will use the Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 processor. This isn’t the best Snapdragon chipset, but it should still deliver great performance. This also comes as the company says the new phone is a ‘true flagship’ phone. Nothing has been making some lofty claims about the Nothing Phone 3, asserting that it’ll be the company’s first “true” flagship phone. Now, it has officially revealed the phone’s chipset. Nothing confirmed that t

Iran is going offline to prevent purported Israeli cyberattacks

is a senior reporter for The Verge, covering the Trump administration, Elon Musk’s takeover of the federal government, and the tech industry’s embrace of the MAGA movement. In a purported attempt to limit Israel’s ability to wage cyberwarfare, Iran has begun throttling its civilians’ access to the internet and plans to disconnect entirely from the global internet by Tuesday night. Fateme Mohajerani, a government spokesperson, said during a recent television broadcast that the speed reduction w

The best instant cameras you can buy right now

Even with the ability to take excellent photos with our phones and instantly share them across the world, there’s something magical about the old-school instant camera. With just a click of a button, you can capture a moment in a photo that you can see and touch almost immediately. Images captured by an instant camera aren’t as pristine or perfect as those produced by modern digital cameras, but their soft images and imperfections are often a big part of the allure. Yet not all instant cameras

A Rural Public Transit Odyssey

If, in all my miles and years of traveling, I could soundly say that I have learned anything at all, it is this: the easiest way is usually the most boring way. This is true of most things — but it is especially true of travel. Because in all my miles on the American road, I’ve found that the most interesting routes, roads, trails, and methods are basically all tedious, unorthodox, obscure, and time-consuming. There are times when ‘boring’ is quite good, of course. As ‘interesting’ as it could

3D-printed device splits white noise into an acoustic rainbow without power

LLMs pose an interesting problem for DSL designers

The most exciting part of Programming Languages (PL) research for me has always been in Programming Language Design. By carefully crafting a language with a syntax and semantics tailored for a specific domain, PL designers can provide an interface for end users that seamlessly aligns with the sensibilities and intuitions of practitioners, allowing users to focus on the "interesting" parts of a problem and tackle larger and more complex problems. Instead of writing a verbose sequence of API cal

Bzip2 crate switches from C to 100% Rust

Today we published bzip2 version 0.6.0 , which uses our rust implementation of the bzip2 algorithm, libbz2-rs-sys , by default. The bzip2 crate is now faster and easier to cross-compile. The libbz2-rs-sys crate can also be built as a C dynamic library, if you have a C project that would benefit from these improvements. Why though? Why bother working on this algorithm from the 90s that sees very little use today? The thing is that many protocols and libraries still need to support bzip2 to be

Foundry (YC F24) Hiring Early Engineer to Build Web Agent Infrastructure

Cybersecurity takes a big hit in new Trump executive order

Cybersecurity practitioners are voicing concerns over a recent executive order issued by the White House that guts requirements for: securing software the government uses, punishing people who compromise sensitive networks, preparing new encryption schemes that will withstand attacks from quantum computers, and other existing controls. The executive order (EO), issued on June 6, reverses several key cybersecurity orders put in place by President Joe Biden, some as recently as a few days before
