Writing scientific articles is an integral part of the scientific method and common practice to communicate research findings. However, writing is not only about reporting results; it also provides a tool to uncover new thoughts and ideas. Writing compels us to think — not in the chaotic, non-linear way our minds typically wander, but in a structured, intentional manner. By writing it down, we can sort years of research, data and analysis into an actual story, thereby identifying our main messag

What does connecting with someone mean?

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-07-30 02:16:48

Published on 24th July 2025 Connect I read a lot about the idea of connecting with people. They say it's the reason to get good at conversation — so you can connect. A problem I had with this advice is I couldn't find a good explanation of what connecting means. It means mutual empathy — they get you and you get them. It's discovering similar values, experiences and perspectives. It's a feeling of trust and comfort where you both feel safe to say what is truly on your mind. That feeling is wh

SpaceX launches a pair of NASA satellites to probe the origins of space weather

Dynabook Portégé Z40L-N Review: Replaceable Batteries, High Price

Back in, say, 2001, business travelers would hop on an international flight not just with their laptop, but with three or four spare batteries also tucked into their attaché case.

SteelSeries Rival 3 Gen 2 Review: Good Budget Gaming Mice

Over the years, computer mice have become expensive. Everything has become expensive. It can be frustrating to look at a list of gaming mice and see even the cheapest options approaching $80, especially when games now cost $80 and new graphics cards regularly pass the $1,000 mark. This is where budget-oriented mice are perfect.

AppleCare One is a good deal, but not for everyone

Apple announced some big changes to its device protection plans this week with the introduction of AppleCare One. The new service lets you protect three devices for $19.99 per month. That means things like your Apple TV, AirPods Max, and iPad can be covered under one plan at a cost that doesn’t fluctuate. And every device after that costs $5.99 per month to add. The company’s goal is to convince customers that this new service is easier and a better value compared to enrolling each device in it

What role should oil and gas companies play in climate tech?

Standing on top of a drilling rig in the backyard of Nabors’s headquarters, I couldn’t stop thinking about the role oil and gas companies are playing in the energy transition.

Rita El Khoury / Android Authority It’s a known fact that ChatGPT, Gemini, and most AI chatbots hallucinate answers sometimes.
