Vaccination rates among the country's kindergartners have fallen once again, with coverage of the measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR) vaccination dropping from 92.7 percent in the 2023–2024 school year to 92.5 percent in 2024–2025. The percentage changes are small across the board, but they represent thousands of children and an ongoing downward trend that makes the country more vulnerable to outbreaks. In the latest school year, an estimated 286,000 young children were not fully protected agains
How long does it take to identify the helmet of a hiker lost in a 183-hectare mountain area, analyzing 2,600 frames taken by a drone from approximately 50 meters away?

Aamir Siddiqui / Android Authority TL;DR Android TV currently offers a Discover tab for getting recommendations and building your watchlist. A new update to the system launcher suggests that Google’s planning to drop Discover and move your watchlist to the Home tab. Confusingly, Google’s messaging in the app suggest that this change was supposed to take place in July. What does your usage of Android TV look like? Google’s big-screen entertainment platform certainly tries to act as a hub that
The federal government may not have closed the window on paying for GLP-1 weight loss drugs like Ozempic and Zepbound after all. The Trump administration is reportedly planning to conduct an experiment that will allow some people to have obesity drugs covered by their Medicaid and Medicare plans. The Washington Post first broke the news Friday morning, having reportedly obtained documents from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services outlining the plan. It would enable state Medicaid prog
It’s hard shopping for an outdoor couch. You need to consider the material so that it can weather the elements, potentially buy a storage box to store cushions, and consider the color, because who wants visible stains? That’s why I was so intrigued with Outer. The company’s couches come with OuterShell, a built-in cover that wraps around the couch cushions to keep them protected from bird droppings and rain. Just pull it over the cushions when you’re not using them, and affix the Velcro to the u

It’s the flip phone paradox: if you want to be more mindful about your mobile device usage, you need more screen, not less. I know. But I swear it’s true: with a bigger cover screen, you get more than just a new way to check notifications. You can actually get shit done. Things that are annoying or even impossible to do on

Today the conglomerate announced the names for the restructured entities. The company retaining Warner Bros. film, television and game studios, along with New Line Cinema, DC Studios, HBO and HBO Max, will be called Warner Bros. Meanwhile, the other entity, which holds the original company’s full portfolio of live cable channels, incl

Robert Triggs / Android Authority Depending on where you live, you’ve likely had 5G in your pocket for at least a couple of years — or possibly close to half a decade. In any case, the wireless tech has certainly been around long enough to have had time to accomplish the numerous lofty promises that CEOs piped up to upsell us, which included everything from rejuvenating retail to traffic lights pushing updates to your car. While some of those promises might have come to pass, quite a lot of th
This piece was inspired by this post by Aaron Boodman. I remember myself as a calm, quiet kid, happiest when I had a bunch of wires in my hands. My parents used to give them to me as toys along with a screwdriver and an old cassette player I could take apart and try to put back together. I was three years old. I didn’t know what I was doing, but I loved the feeling of exploring the insides of a machine, trying to understand how it works. In first grade, I was introduced to MS-DOS and Logo with

Apple this week launched a new AppleCare One plan – a way to buy AppleCare+ for multiple devices for one monthly fee. The exact coverage it offers depends on the mix of devices you have, and the cost depends on how many, but you’ll almost certainly save money over buying separate plans for each. Does this mean you should subscribe? That depends … Understanding AppleCare AppleCare can be somewhat confusing, because the company has historically used the branding to describe both the standard wa
I once spent an hour creating an F1 lights-out reaction test which went viral and was even played by F1 drivers. That sounds like a brag, and it kinda is, but now whenever I pour days or even weeks of work into something, it just seems so inefficient compared to that time I spent an hour on something that went big. Wait! You're not my therapist! Let's look at another F1 website… This is part 3 in a multi-part series looking at the loading performance of F1 websites. Not interested in F1? It sho

Over the past few years, we raised around $11 million to pursue a bol
Andy Walker / Android Authority TL;DR Google has added a new jump-to-top button in the Discover feed. It only appears when accessing Discover from the launcher, not inside the Google app. The button is available in the latest beta version and appears when you scroll up. Some people are content with endlessly scrolling through the Google Discover feed, but others are keen to get back to the latest updates at the top as fast as possible. Big tech will always oblige if it keeps you on the platf
