‘Star Trek’ Is Born on ‘Strange New Worlds’

gizmodo.com James Whitbrook 2025-11-23 00:15:05

A few weeks ago in Strange New Worlds‘ up-and-down third season, “A Space Adventure Hour” delivered a deeply unsubtle paean to the creation of Star Trek. This week, Strange New Worlds does much the same: but this time the birth of Star Trek is within the text itself, making for a much more interesting lens on the birth of an icon. From the moment that it opens, it becomes clear that “The Sehlat Who Ate Its Tail” (named for a Vulcan idiom that Spock uses later on) is not going to be a typical ep

Airbrush art of the 80s was Chrome-tastic (2015)

news.ycombinator.com The Toy Box 2025-11-23 04:53:12

The 80’s was a decade of many things — excess, greed, and big hair, to name a few — but it was also the heyday for airbrush art. As a teenager in the late 80’s, I desperately wanted an airbrush so I could paint my favorite band logos on the back of my jean jacket, and maybe make some money on the side painting t-shirts and license plates. I thought those guys on the boardwalk selling custom shirts were gods — how could they produce such amazing works of art in just minutes? My graduation gift f

Star Wars fans have become accustomed to cinematic reshufflings in the years since 2019’s The Rise of Skywalker. But even before the sequel trilogy concluded, there were hints that Lucasfilm’s confident plans were subject to shake-ups. There were the notorious reshoots attached to 2016’s Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, but even more dramatically, there was the director switcheroo that happened with 2018’s Solo: A Star Wars Story.

The “Godfather of AI” Has a Bizarre Plan to Save Humanity From Evil AI

Geoffrey Hinton, the pioneering mind behind AI industry-transforming neural networks, who's often referred to as a "godfather of AI," says we need to infuse AI with "maternal instincts" to save humanity from rogue AI. Though his work on neural networks helped to usher in the large language models (LLMs) that dominate Silicon Valley today, these days, Hinton is known for being somewhat of an AI alarmist: he believes that there's a significant chance that superintelligent AI will wipe out humanki

Inca bureaucrats recorded all the goings-on in their bustling empire using knotted cords called khipu, where the position and order of the knots represented numbers. They relied on the khipu system to track people, taxes, produce, livestock, and products like woven cloth and beer. Because khipu were so vital to the Inca government, and because the khipu itself is such a sophisticated way of recording numbers, colonial writers decided that these tools must be the exclusive knowledge of a very sp

Great Myths #16: The Conflict Thesis

The “Conflict Thesis” forms a kind of underlying historial metamyth that informs and undergirds a substantial amount of historical assumptions by anti-theist polemicists. This is the assumed and unquestioned idea that Science and Religion have been perpetually at war down the ages. Also known as the Draper-White Thesis or Warfare Model, it is a conception of the history of science that presents religion as the perpetual and consistent enemy of science, technology and progress.
