Developer AdHoc Studio revealed its debut game, Dispatch, will release on October 22 for Steam and PlayStation 5. Revealed at the 2024 Game Awards, the adventure title puts players in the shoes of Robbie Robertson, an ex-superhero who works at the Superhero Dispatch Network. As an SDN employee, Robbie deploys a team of supers to various crimes and events in the city, choosing which hero is best for the situation. Imagine Telltale’s The Walking Dead games mixed with some 9-1-1 (and superheroes,
The idea is generalists know a lot about everything and when to pass it off to a subject matter expert. In 2025, with everything in tech changing by the minute, I’m realizing I need to set boundaries about how deep I go on any particular topic. But I’m unsure how. Particularly if I don’t want to get left behind as things continue to evolve. Curious how other folks approach this?
Executive Summary The NPM ecosystem is facing another critical supply chain attack. The popular @ctrl/tinycolor package, which receives over 2 million weekly downloads, has been compromised along with more than 40 other packages across multiple maintainers. This attack demonstrates a concerning evolution in supply chain threats - the malware includes a self-propagating mechanism that automatically infects downstream packages, creating a cascading compromise across the ecosystem. The compromised
William Gibson Reads Neuromancer The author Ray Bradbury is one of the early science fiction authors that moved science fiction into a literary form. As a writer Bradbury constructs beautifully written stories and novels. Bradbury's writing is in stark contrast to Bradbury as a speaker. The first time I heard Ray Bradbury speak was at the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM) yearly conference in Los Angeles in the 1980s. Hearing Bradbury speak is an almost painful experience.

Editors have highlighted the following attributes while ensuring the content's credibility: Researchers use laser light to form a tiny "optical pinhole" inside a nonlinear crystal, which also turns the infrared image into a visible image that a traditional silicon-based camera sensor can detect. With this setup, the researchers captured clear, wide-depth images without using any lenses, even in very low lig
More than 200 contractors who worked on evaluating and improving Google’s AI products have been laid off without warning in at least two rounds of layoffs last month. The move comes amid an ongoing fight over pay and working conditions, according to workers who spoke to WIRED. In the past few years, Google has outsourced its AI rating work—which includes evaluating, editing, or rewriting the Gemini chatbot’s response to make it sound more human and “intelligent”—to thousands of contractors empl

If you want a powerful phone charger in the smallest size possible, Apple has the answer — but there is a tradeoff. The company's new 40W Dynamic Power Adapter is the first charger to support the USB PD 3.2 AVS (adjustable voltage supply) protocol so it can hit up to 60W, but only for a limited time. It was designed to work the company's new iPhone 17 models with faster charging speeds than previous iPhones. Lugging heavy chargers is a particularly bugbear of mine so the Dynamic Power Adapter s

With iPhone 17 Pro, there was one major rumor that a lot of Apple fans were looking forward to this year: reverse wireless charging. After all, with the new glass window with a centered Apple logo – it looked like a perfect opportunity for this new feature. Our batteries are also larger than ever. Yet, the Apple Event came and went – and there was no reverse wireless charging. While this is certainly disappointing, there’s a good reason for it not arriving, and I’ll delve into that. Magnets ca

He only needs to tell the engine which API the engine should prefer. There are three reasons why the engine not only focuses on one API: Performance . Some gra
As WordPress projects grow in complexity, organizing your codebase becomes essential. Whether you’re building a plugin, theme, or block library, a clean and scalable architecture makes development faster, onboarding easier, and long-term maintenance far less painful. In Refactoring the Multi-Block Plugin: Build Smarter, Register Cleaner, Scale Easier, I walked through setting up a flexible structure for managing multiple static, dynamic, and interactive blocks within a single plugin. That setup
Engineers from Ohio State University are developing a new way to power rocket engines, using liquid uranium for a faster, more efficient form of nuclear propulsion that could deliver round trips to Mars within a single year. NASA and its private partners have their eyes set on the Moon and Mars, aiming to establish a regular human presence on distant celestial bodies. The future of space travel depends on building rocket engines that can propel vehicles farther into space and do it faster. Nucl

The second week of the season is too early to label a game as "must-win," but these two NFC East teams are staring an 0-2 start in the face. The Giants dropped their opener to the Washington Commanders, putting up only a pair of field goals in the loss. Despite the stagnant offense, Giants head coach B
Introducing pass Password management should be simple and follow Unix philosophy. With pass , each password lives inside of a gpg encrypted file whose filename is the title of the website or resource that requires the password. These encrypted files may be organized into meaningful folder hierarchies, copied from computer to computer, and, in general, manipulated using standard command line file management utilities. pass makes managing these individual password files extremely easy. All passw

Physicians rely on nuclear medicine scans, like SPECT scans, to watch the heart pump, track blood flow and detect diseases hidden deep inside the body. But today’s scanners depend on expensive detectors that are difficult to make. Now, scientists led by Northwestern University and Soochow University in China have built the first perovskite-based detector that can capture individual gamma rays for SPECT imaging with record-breaking precision. The new tool could make common types of nuclear medic
