Linking to text fragments with a bookmarklet One of my favourite features added to web browsers in the last few years is text fragments. Text fragments allow you to link directly to specific text on a web page, and some browsers will highlight the linked text – for example, by scrolling to it, or adding a coloured highlight. This is useful if I’m linking to a long page that doesn’t have linkable headings – I want it to be easy for readers to find the part of the page I was looking for. Here’s

Here's Why You Really Taste Wine Before a Server Pours for the Table

Wine service can feel intimidating if you're not experienced with the ritual. The swirling, sniffing, and polite approval after that small initial pour might seem like theater or a simple taste test. However, that preliminary sample serves a specific purpose: verifying the wine's quality. The initial pour allows you to detect whether the wine has spoiled. Bottles can occasionally deteriorate due to poor storage conditions or defective corks, resulting in what's known as "corked" wine. This flaw

DACLab says it can remove CO2 using less electricity than many competitors

The world’s countries may have pledged to cut its carbon pollution, but with global emissions reaching an all-time high last year they’ve fallen far short. Digging out of that hole is going to require removing carbon straight from the atmosphere. But it comes with a hefty price tag, mostly because of the energy required. Removing one metric ton of CO 2 using direct air capture is expected to require around 2,000 kWh of electricity when the technology is sorted and scaled up. One startup called
