The Project Hail Mary trailer looks like The Martian all over again (in a great way)

engadget.com Unknown 2026-02-21 16:21:19

Andy Weir's sci-fi books are practically built to be turned into movies, especially in the hands of great writers and directors. That's what happened with The Martian, which was a delightfully nerdy self-published novel that was transformed into a thrilling film adaptation — thanks to Drew Goddard's script and Ridley Scott's bold direction. And I have a feeling the same will be true for the latest Weir adaptation, Project Hail Mary, judging from the first trailer released today. It's got everyt

Want to stand out in IT job interviews? 10 ways a home lab can help

marchmeena29 / Getty Images When I was a kid, my home lab consisted of test tubes and beakers, sodium bicarbonate (baking soda), acetic acid (vinegar), and the occasional boom, followed closely by the sound of my mom in the distance yelling, "David Allen Gewirtz, you stop that right now." When the scold transitioned from "David Gewirtz" to "David Allen Gewirtz," I knew I was in trouble. To be fair, nothing prepared my nontechnical mom and dad to raise a future engineer.

Jack Wallen/ZDNET I spend a lot of time looking for Linux distributions that fit in certain niches, and one of the most important niches is those open-source operating systems that can serve the general public. When looking for such distributions, I tend to consider those based on Ubuntu first, which one might think is limiting, but there are hundreds of distributions with that base.

What just happened? The number of countries where more than half of internet connections use the IPv6 protocol has surged from 13 to 21 over the past year.

Is being bilingual good for your brain?

R eams of papers have been published on the cognitive advantages of multilingualism. Beyond the conversational doors it can open, multilingualism is supposed to improve “executive function”, a loose concept that includes the ability to ignore distractions, plan complex tasks and update beliefs as new information arrives. Most striking, numerous studies have even shown that bilinguals undergo a later onset of dementia, perhaps of around four years, on average. But some of these studies have faile
