Trading communities on X and Reddit resurrect financially undesirable stocks from their ashes just for the sake of memes. It’s undeniable that a growing subset of investors are adamant on using platforms like X, Reddit, YouTube, and TikTok to make their financial decisions.

‘Here We Go!’: Trump Weighs in After Russian Drones Shot Down Over Poland

NATO fighter jets shot down at least three Russian drones in Polish airspace overnight after more than a dozen entered its eastern border, according to several reports. It was a historic action, the first time that NATO forces have shot down a Russian aircraft in a NATO country. But President Donald Trump didn’t offer much clarity about what the U.S. plans to do about it, writing a confusing Truth Social post on Wednesday that could be read several different ways. “What’s with Russia violating

NVIDIA's GeForce Now with RTX 5080 GPUs is a cloud gaming revelation

If you had told me five years ago that playing PC games over the cloud would soon look indistinguishable from using a powerful rig, I would have called you a fool. But after diving into NVIDIA's new RTX 5080-powered GeForce Now servers for several hours, I think we've reached a major milestone for cloud streaming. From a New Jersey server almost a thousand miles away from my Atlanta-area home, I was able to play Cyberpunk 2077 in 4K at 170 fps (with NVIDIA's DLSS 4 frame generation) and Overwatc

California’s High-Speed Rail Fiasco Keeps Getting Worse

Seventeen years ago, Californians bet on a grand vision of the future. They narrowly approved a $10 billion bond issue to build a high-speed rail line that would zip between San Francisco and Los Angeles in under three hours. This technological marvel would slash emissions, revitalize the state’s Central Valley, and, with some financial help from the feds and private sector, provide the fast, efficient, and convenient travel Asia and Europe have long enjoyed. State officials promised to deliver

AI gaming startup Born raises $15M to build ‘social’ AI companions that combat loneliness

Fabian Kamberi, CEO and co-founder of the Berlin-based AI gaming startup Born, thinks the current AI companions on the market are designed to be exploitative and geared towards isolating users through one-to-one relationships with AI chatbots. “It feels like it fuels the loneliness epidemic, instead of making it more fun and giving users the opportunity to make their lives better,” Kamberi told TechCrunch. The future of AI companions, he says, is about shared experiences that strengthen real-w

Axial twist theory

Scientific theory in vertebrate development Axial twist Schema of the proposed development of the axial twist. Developmental phases are (from top to bottom): (1) the embryo turns on its left side; (2) the anterior head grows in the same direction, but the rest of the body grows oppositely into a twist. So that ultimately (3) external bilateral symmetry is regained. Note that there is no evolutionary pressure for internal symmetry so the heart (and other organs) remain asymmetric. Details System

We Finally Know What ‘Star Wars’ Is Doing in ‘Destiny 2’

Back in May, Bungie teased some kind of pseudo-crossover between its shared-world shooter Destiny 2 and Star Wars. Not another skin pack like before, but a full-on expansion subtitled Renegades that would see Guardians explore a sandy planet and wield a laser sword. In a new livestream, the developer pulled back the curtain on Renegades, which was made in collaboration with Lucasfilm. Guardians will explore the Lawless Frontier of Mars, Europa, and Venus and meet the Jedi-like Praxis Order to f

The FDA approves human trials for pig kidney transplants

Despite how it sounds, a xenotransplant isn't something from the latest Alien movie. It's an increasingly credible science: the transplantation of animal organs into humans. The field took one of its biggest leaps forward on Monday. The FDA approved the biotech company eGenesis to begin human trials of pig-to-human kidney transplants. eGenesis provides pigs with CRISPR-modified genes. These genetic changes reduce the chances of organ rejection in human recipients. The FDA approved the company f

Tesla is seeking permits to offer ride-hail services at Silicon Valley airports

Tesla has asked the San Francisco, San Jose, and Oakland airports about acquiring permits to operate a ride-hailing service at each location, according to Politico. Tesla appears to have contacted each airport right around the time it started up a nascent charter service in California in late July. In the case of the San Francisco and Oakland airports, representatives told the outlet that they had been contacted, but had yet to meet with Tesla. The San Jose airport spokesperson confirmed no app

Nvidia unveils new GPU designed for long-context inference

In Brief At the AI Infrastructure Summit on Tuesday, Nvidia announced a new GPU called the Rubin CPX, designed for context windows larger than 1 million tokens. Part of the chip giant’s forthcoming Rubin series, the CPX is optimized for processing large sequences of context and is meant to be used as part of a broader “disaggregated inference” infrastructure approach. For users, the result will be better performance on long-context tasks like video generation or software development. Nvidia’s
