How does being over- or underqualified at the beginning of a worker's career affect skill acquisition, retention, and promotion? Despite the importance of mismatch for the labor market, self-selection into jobs has made estimating these effects difficult. We overcome endogeneity concerns in the context of the US Air Force, which allocates new enlistees to over 130 different jobs based, in part, on test scores. Using these test scores, we create simulated job assignments based on factors outside

Two Australian entrepreneurs have joined the race to build a local alternative to the artificial intelligence models created by tech giants like OpenAI and Meta, earmarking $10 million to compensate copyright owners for their work. Sovereign Australia AI was founded by AI strategist Simon Kriss and technology executive Troy Neilson who shared concerns that Australia’s access to the critical technology would be at the mercy of the decisions made in the United States or China.

The consensus is clear. Regular folk and gamers alike couldn’t give a hoot for yet another Meta Quest-like VR headset. Hell, even the “metaverse is the future” company Meta seems more interested in smart glasses than headsets nowadays. That may change if Valve has anything to say about it. Even if you’re not a VR gaming enthusiast, there’s more than one reason you should pay attention to Valve’s long-rumored wireless XR headset. The company behind Steam could be crafting a device whose closest d

Dish parent company EchoStar is selling wireless spectrum licenses to SpaceX for around $17 billion, the companies announced on Monday.

Apple has been working for many years on developing its own mobile data modem to replace the Qualcomm ones on which it has traditionally relied. The first of these, the C1 chip, was used in the iPhone 16e, and is also expected to be used in the upcoming iPhone 17 Air. There have so far been mixed messages on how well it compares to Qualcomm’s current chip, and a new study by Ookla provides our most detailed comparison yet … Ookla’s speed tests If you’ve ever tested your home or mobile broadba
We first saw Apple Calendar spam almost a decade ago, when it hit such levels that the iPhone maker issued an apology and said that it was blocking suspicious senders. We’ve seen the problem re-emerge several times since then, with Apple even publishing a YouTube video on how to remove it. Despite all of these efforts, however, it seems to be spiking again … Spammers send calendar invitations containing links, most of them taking the form of cryptocurrency scams. Several of us at 9to5Mac have

For example: Hover over the timeline allows reviewing the chronology of events and visualizing the movements of the characters Connecting two characters suggests edits to the text to reflect the new interaction Moving a character sugge
Haile, now at Northwestern University, recalls thinking that Abate was particularly eager. As a visible Ethiopian scientist, she gets a lot of email requests, but his stood out. “No obstacle was going to stand in his way,” she says. It was risky to take on a young student with no research experience who’d only been in the US for a year, but she offered him a spot in her lab. Abate spent the summer working on materials for use in solid oxide fuel cells. He returned for the following summer, then
Goenka saw a better way: Build a real-time system that could “stream” the sequencing data, analyzing it as it was being generated, like streaming a film on Netflix rather than downloading it to watch later. To do this, she designed a cloud computing architecture to pull in more processing power. Goenka’s first challenge was to increase the speed at which her team could upload the raw data for processing, by streamlining the requests between the sequencer and the cloud to avoid unnecessary “chat
Inspired by the 1945 report “Science: The Endless Frontier,” authored by Vannevar Bush at the request of President Truman, the US government began a long-standing tradition of investing in basic research. These investments have paid steady dividends across many scientific domains—from nuclear energy to lasers, and from medical technologies to artificial intelligence. Trained in fundamental research, generations of students have emerged from university labs with the knowledge and skills necessary
Ryan Haines / Android Authority TL;DR Samsung has pushed out another One UI 8 beta for the Galaxy S25. The stable release is expected later this month, and this could be the last One UI 8 beta for the series. Samsung is expected to roll out the stable One UI 8 update this month, starting with the Galaxy S25 series. After all, the newest member of the Galaxy S25 series already has it, and others are in line. But, Samsung still appears to be executing some finishing touches right before the sta

At least 14 people were killed and dozens injured on Monday as violent protests by youths rocked the Nepalese capital and certain other areas over the government's decision to ban social media sites, prompting authorities to deploy the army in Kathmandu to control the situation. Advertisement Thousands of youths, including school students, under the banner of Gen Z, converged in front of Parliament in the heart of Kathmandu and shouted anti-government slogans demanding immediate revocation of
Apple could release iOS 26 any day now, and it will bring a new Liquid Glass design, call screening and your iPhone. It will also update the alarm feature in the clock app so you can change your snooze length, affording you a few more z's before you get up and tackle the day. And developers and beta testers can try this feature out now with the iOS 26 beta. Before this change, if you hit your iPhone alarm's snooze feature, you would always get an extra 9 minutes of shut-eye. With the iOS 26 bet
In 2019, Record Store Day partnered with manufacturer Crosley to revive a 3-inch collectible vinyl format first launched in Japan in 2004. Five years later, a new 4-inch-sized format called Tiny Vinyl wants to take the miniature vinyl collectible crown, and launch partner Target is throwing its considerable weight behind it as an exclusive launch partner, with 44 titles expected in the coming weeks. It’s 2025, and the global vinyl record market has reached $2 billion in annual sales and is stil
TL;DR Apparent Galaxy S26 series renders have surfaced online. We get a first look at the purported Galaxy S26 Pro and Galaxy S26 Ultra. We also get a look at the S26 Edge, and this render lines up with a previous image. We got a first look at the Galaxy S26 Edge late last week, showing a tweaked design compared to the Galaxy S25 Edge. Now, a different source has revealed renders apparently showing all three Galaxy S26 series models. SmartPrix posted renders that purportedly show the Galaxy

After all, the three companies have been talking about it for two and a half years and they've made it clear that Project Moohan -- their XR headset to compete with Apple Vision Pro -- will launch before the end of 2025. But there's another product that they've bee

Unfortunately all they play is a bunch of modern hipster games when I wanted to play Hungry Hungry Hippos. No one wanted to play with me so I decided to build circuitry that would take their place. Pushing the plastic lever eventually got really tiring so

In the past couple of weeks, I’ve been posting about seemingly simple mathematical problems that defy intuition, and where the answers we find on the internet turn out to be shallow or hard to parse. For a taste, you might enjoy the articles on Gödel’s beavers or on infinite decimals. Today, let’s continue by asking a simple question: how many dimensions does a line have? A trained mathematician might blurt out an answer involving vector spaces or open set coverings, but there’s no fun in that.

Nintendo has just won another major battle in its longstanding war against piracy. Earlier this summer, a US federal court ruled in favor of Nintendo in a lawsuit against Ryan Daly and the Modded Hardware website. The site was known for selling devices that allowed users to get around Nintendo's piracy protections, including the popular MIG Switch flashcart that lets buyers play official Nintendo games without the need for a physical cartridge. Besides requiring Daly to pay $2 million to Nintend
