Why it’s so hard to warn people about flash floods

is a senior science reporter covering energy and the environment with more than a decade of experience. She is also the host of Hell or High Water: When Disaster Hits Home , a podcast from Vox Media and Audible Originals. By definition, flash floods are notoriously difficult to warn people about well in advance. They form rapidly, giving forecasters hours of lead time at best to figure out where they might hit with specificity. We’ve seen this with devastating effect in Texas, where flash flood

Elon Musk's X says Indian government ordered more than 2,000 accounts blocked, including Reuters

Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi arrives at the White House to meet with U.S. President Donald Trump on Feb. 13, 2025 in Washington, DC. Elon Musk's X said Tuesday that the Indian government ordered the company to block 2,355 accounts, including Reuters, in the country. "The Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology demanded immediate action- within one hour- without providing justification, and required the accounts to remain blocked until further notice," X's global government af

AI Does Something Subtly Bizarre If You Make Typos While Talking to It

New research suggests that medical AI chatbots are woefully unreliable at understanding how people actually communicate their health problems. As detailed in yet-to-be-peer-reviewed study presented last month by MIT researchers, an AI chatbot is more likely to advise a patient not to seek medical care if their messages contained typos. The errors AI is susceptible to can be as seemingly inconsequential as an extra space between words, or if the patient used slang or colorful language. And strik

Where’s your new Google Photos editor? Google shares updated timetable

Google Photos recently celebrated its 10-year anniversary, and while we’re thankful for all the memories it’s helped us preserve along the way, we were also very excited to hear about what’s coming next, with promises of a bold new editing experience about to roll out. When sharing the news back in May, Google communicated that initial access would get underway for Android users in June, with iOS support following later. We’re soundly into July by this point, and still haven’t seen the new edito

Musk Is Struggling to Understand What's Happening Around Him, Says Former Tesla Exec

Tesla investors are clearly worried that CEO Elon Musk's fiery new pledge to build a third US political party could inflict even more damage on the embattled company. The EV maker has been put through the wringer by Musk's antics, from cratering sales worldwide to an enormous drop in year-over-year revenues. The company's finances are in free fall. And now that president Donald Trump's so-called "big, beautiful bill" has passed through Congress, Tesla's crisis could soon take a major turn for

A Flustered Pam Bondi Tries to Explain Why a Minute Was Missing From the Epstein Jail Video

Attorney General Pam Bondi was asked by reporters Tuesday about Jeffrey Epstein, causing President Donald Trump, who was sitting near her at the White House, to become indignant that anyone was still asking about the sex offender who was found dead in a jail cell in 2019. Bondi gave a very confusing response about both her past comments on Epstein and a one-minute gap in the video released by the U.S. Department of Justice. But only after Trump berated the reporter for even asking about Epstein

TIL you can make "GIFs" with SVGs for GitHub README.md files

The moving image below is only 49Kb and has an incredibly high resolution. It's similar to a GIF but instead of showing moving images, it shows moving SVGs! The best part: Github supports these in their README.md files! Getting these to work involves asciinema and svg-term-cli. After uploading the asciinema you can use the tool to download a file that you can immediately click and drag into a README. It's something that I'm using extensively on bespoken. How it works?

Cybersecurity’s Unsung Heroes: Elevating Neurodiverse Talent in the Digital Age

They aren’t your average hires. They don’t glide through job interviews or thrive in open-plan offices. But when it comes to pattern recognition, threat modeling, or zero-day hunting, neurodiverse individuals often outperform their peers. And yet, they remain largely untapped in the cybersecurity workforce. If we’re serious about fortifying digital defense systems, it’s time we stop overlooking the neurodiverse minds that already think in ways most cybersecurity frameworks are only beginning to
