The US is trying to kick-start a “nuclear energy renaissance”

In May, President Donald Trump signed four executive orders to facilitate the construction of nuclear reactors and the development of nuclear energy technology; the orders aim to cut red tape, ease approval processes, and reshape the role of the main regulatory agency, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, or NRC. These moves, the administration said, were part of an effort to achieve American independence from foreign power providers by way of a “nuclear energy renaissance.” Self-reliance isn’t t

How Often Should You Replace Your Mattress and Bedding?

As foreboding as it sounds, nothing lasts forever—not even your mattress, sheets, and pillows. It’s essential to know how often to replace your mattress and bedding, not just for hygiene reasons, but for ensuring you’re getting optimal support and comfort to aid in sleep. I have seen some severe cases of people using wildly outdated or damaged mattresses (think 20 years or more, or covered in duct tape), and pillows so shredded into tatters that it makes you wonder how they even resembled pillow

How a 2020 Rolex Collection Changed the Face of Watch Design

As the company that either invented or popularized the dive watch, the GMT watch, the first water-resistant watch, the first automatic watches, and much more besides, you could hardly downplay Rolex’s influence on watchmaking history. But while its iconic sports watches, like the Submariner, Daytona and GMT-Master are endlessly imitated, Rolex is not seen as a trendsetter, preferring to ignore passing horological fashions. It does its own thing, iterating carefully and minimally on its age-old t

Exit 8’s director was inspired by watching people play the game

Few video game adaptations understand their source material quite like the Exit 8 film. It takes the rules and structure of the game — which strands players inside of a looping hallway in a Tokyo subway station — and then builds on them with actual characters and a story. And according to director Genki Kawamura, one of the reasons that the movie feels so fresh could be because of how he approached it. “I wasn’t necessarily thinking about a film adaptation of a video game,” he tells The Verge. “

Imagine if George Cukor’s The Women was a modern, Spanish-language telenovela set in Ecuador rather than a 1939 dramedy about the lives of wealthy Manhattanites. Now imagine if the series was directed by Pedro Almodóvar and its characters were brought to life with stop-motion animation instead of being portrayed by Hollywood heavyweig

I unified convolution and attention into a single framework

The operational primitives of deep learning, primarily matrix multiplication and convolution, exist as a fragmented landscape of highly specialized tools. This paper introduces the Generalized Windowed Operation (GWO), a theoretical framework that unifies these operations by decomposing them into three orthogonal components: Path, defining operational locality; Shape, defining geometric structure and underlying symmetry assumptions; and Weight, defining feature importance. We elevate this f

Close the loop: analytics that teach your chatbot to fix itself

Many chatbots stall for the same reason. Unanswered questions build up and nothing changes. Teams ship a release and move on. Users try again and give up. The way out is simple. Treat every miss as a signal. Capture it in a standard way. Decide whether it was noise or a real gap. Turn real gaps into small updates in guardrails or knowledge. Run that loop every week. Measure how fast it moves. Results improve without bigger models. Start with lean instrumentation Analytics only works if the tra

Behind Kamathipura's Closed Doors

On the rickshaw, in the evening rush hour. An elderly driver, hands on the steering wheel, khaki shirt, marking his station. His neck hesitantly swivels, as if to say something: they have arrived at their destination. An alien territory in the white-washed city. Coquettish beckonings are lined up on fractured doors as street lamps in the narrow alleys. Collapsing buildings constrict ventilation and light. A landlord’s greed is made manifest: two-storeyed houses buried beneath off-balanced extens

All the 'Awe Dropping' Announcements You Missed at Apple's Event

Each September, Apple's product release playbook dials up the unveiling of the company's newest line of iPhones, along with a variety of complementary gadgets. On Tuesday, the company took the wraps off the iPhone 17 in all its variations, most notably the new skinny iPhone Air, along with new Apple Watches -- Series 11 and Ultra 3 -- and an upgrade to its 2-year-old AirPods Pro 2 earbuds. Along with the hardware, Apple is rolling out the new versions of the devices' respective operating system

This Wearable Isn't Telepathic, but It Knows What You Want to Say

Telepathy is, until proven otherwise, still science fiction. But a new wearable announced this week aims to bring the world closer to silent communication, though it's more about using brain signals than the X-Men superpower. Alterego, developed by the MIT Media Lab, is a peripheral neural interface that allows us to converse with machines, artificial intelligence assistants and humans, without using our voice or externally observable movements. We first saw the Alterego as a prototype in 2018

The Free Ride for EVs in the Carpool Lane Is Coming to an End

A rough year for electric vehicle adoption just got a little rougher for owners in some parts of the US. Starting next month, EVs will no longer be able to ride in the fast lane in California, after the US federal government and Congress failed to reauthorize a popular program that has given hybrid and electric vehicles access to state carpool lanes—and worked to promote the sale of electrics for more than 25 years. Under the program, California drivers with qualifying electric, plug-in hybrid,

Life, work, death and the peasant: Rent and extraction

This is the third piece of the fourth part of our series (I, II, IIIa, IIIb, IVa, IVb) looking at the lives of pre-modern peasant farmers – a majority of all of the humans who have ever lived. Last time, we started looking at the subsistence of peasant agriculture by considering the productivity of our model farming families under basically ideal conditions: relatively good yields and effectively infinite land. This week we’re going to start peeling back those assumptions in light of the very s

Reduce bandwidth costs with dm-cache: fast local SSD caching for network storage

How we cut AWS bandwidth costs 95% with dm-cache: fast local SSD caching for network storage The bandwidth billing challenge When deploying infrastructure across multiple AWS availability zones (AZs), bandwidth costs can become a significant operational expense. Some of our Upsun infrastructure spans three AZs for high availability, but this architecture created an unexpected challenge with our Ceph-based storage system. Since Ceph distributes data across the cluster and AWS bills for inter-A

Tips for installing Windows 98 in QEMU/UTM

Windows 98 runs surprisingly well in QEMU via UTM SE, but it requires some care in setting it up. It’s a great way to run old 90s Windows and DOS software on your iPad (and Mac too, though you have other options available to you, or an iPhone if you don’t mind the HID difficulties). This post provides some suggestions and tips for installing Windows and selecting the best emulated devices. The guidance is intended for UTM users on Apple platforms, but should apply to anything QEMU based (or QEM

Canelo vs. Crawford: When to Watch the Fight Live on Netflix

Pro boxers Saul "Canelo" Álvarez and Terence Crawford are heading into a weekend match that will see Álvarez defending his title as super middleweight champion. As the crowd descends upon Las Vegas to watch the pair square up, the question lingers in the air of whether Crawford will beef up his weight -- and by how much -- to meet his opponent's. While Álvarez is a seasoned super middleweight contender (and current undisputed champion), Crawford has never fought in this weight class and planned

Anne Rice Hated This Vampire Movie, but It's Actually a Bloody, Rock-Infused Cult Classic

Vampires have captured the hearts and minds of audiences for over 100 years. From the original Dracula novel, to Abigail these monsters have delivered gore-soaked bloodbaths from creatures that only resemble humans. Novelist Anne Rice's vampire catapulted vampires to super stardom between her 1980s books, and the Tom Cruise/Brad Pitt adaptation of Interview With a Vampire in the '90s. However, her books extend far beyond Louis and Lestat's story. This movie is an adaptation of two novels and wh
