I Found the Best Way to Stop Mosquitos This Summer, and It's Not a Spray or Candle

Longer, hotter summers mean one thing: longer, itchier, angrier mosquito seasons. And if June's sizzling heat waves are any preview of summer's dog days, you're gonna need more than good vibes and a flickering citronella candle to make it through. I was playing it fast and loose with the usual bug defenses: sprays that smell bad and taste even worse and candles that burn out faster than your will to be outside. Then I met my new summer MVP: the Thermacell. It's a compact, affordable, bug-repell

These Transcribing Eyeglasses Put Subtitles on the World

I knew the AI on these smart glasses worked pretty well once it told me that someone else in the conversation was being the socially awkward one.

Let's Talk About the 'Ironheart' Finale and Post-Credits Scene

After two weeks on Disney Plus, Ironheart aired its season finale during a three-episode drop on Tuesday night. Though the show didn't serve as a vehicle for Riri Williams' introduction into the Marvel universe, it's brought in new and not-so-new characters that we recognize from the comic books and greater MCU -- even if some of them were only present in spirit. The penultimate episode saw Riri, Ezekiel/Joe and Parker confront their daddy issues in their own ways, with the latter putting a gun

Why Do Swallows Fly to the Korean DMZ?

Since 1953, the 250-kilometer-long artificial boundary of the DMZ has cut through the middle of the Korean peninsula. The demilitarized buffer zone created more than seven decades ago between the two warring states often feels impenetrable and permanent. However, the DMZ is livelier and more fluid than it seems. In fact, much of the DMZ crosses water—oceans, estuaries, and rivers. A quarter of this boundary falls upon the Han River estuary (한강하구), a “neutral” zone according to the Korean Armisti

What Happens to Your Brain When You Use ChatGPT? Scientists Took a Look

Your brain works differently when you're using generative AI to complete a task than it does when you use your brain alone. Namely, you're less likely to remember what you did. That's the somewhat obvious-sounding conclusion of an MIT study that looked at how people think when they write an essay -- one of the earliest scientific studies of how using gen AI affects us. The study, a preprint that has not yet been peer-reviewed, is pretty small (54 participants) and preliminary, but it points tow

‘Fast & Furious’ Couldn’t Keep Driving Like This

Every franchise, if allowed to go on long enough, hits a wall sooner or later. Nothing lasts forever, as they say, and we’ve seen this eventuality come sooner or later in different flavors. But not many have hit the wall quite like Fast & Furious. One of the biggest, stupidest Hollywood franchises around is now slated to end its main run of movies in April 2027 with Fast XI. It’s an end that can’t come soon enough, honestly. Fast X’s biggest crime wasn’t being half a movie—though of summer 2023

The wanton destruction of a creative-tech era

Fastly, you killed glitch.com and ruined your karma for 10,000 years. You have “betrayed yourself for nothing.” Glitch was an idealistic place where people gathered and made sites, were inspired by other people’s sites and remixed them, and generally enjoyed themselves. Of course a site like that takes money to run, of course you need people to run it - it was specifically better because of the people that ran it. And I can only be very sympathetic to the fact that it cost money - that it only

Moderna says mRNA flu vaccine sailed through trial, beating standard shot

An mRNA-based seasonal flu vaccine from Moderna was 27 percent more effective at preventing influenza infections than a standard flu shot, the company announced this week. Moderna noted that the new shot, dubbed mRNA-1010, hit the highest efficacy target that it set for the trial, which included nearly 41,000 people aged 50 and above.
