Woman Sends Money to "Stranded Astronaut" So He Can "Buy Oxygen"

"In space on a spaceship right now." The sky's the limit for how outrageously implausible some scams can get. Actually, try beyond the atmosphere. An elderly woman in Japan sent thousands of dollars to a trickster who claimed to be an astronaut trapped in space and in danger of suffocating, Agence France-Presse reports. In fairness to the lady, though, she thought they were in love. The 80-year-old pensioner, who lives in Sapporo, the capital of Japan's northern island Hokkaido, met the scamm

My first impressions of gleam

I’m looking for a new programming language to learn this year, and Gleam looks like the most fun. It’s an Elixir-like language that supports static typing. I read the language tour, and it made sense to me, but I need to build something before I can judge a programming language well. I’m sharing some notes on my first few hours using Gleam in case they’re helpful to others learning Gleam or to the team developing the language. My project: Parsing old AIM logs 🔗︎ I used AOL Instant Messenger

‘The Strangers: Chapter 2’ Opening Is a Game of Hide and Seek

Charlie Kaufman Holds Hollywood Responsible for Today’s ‘Terrible’ World

Filmmaker Charlie Kaufman’s got a lot to say about the state of the world—and why he thinks Hollywood is at least partially to blame for it. In a new interview with The Guardian, the mind behind 2004’s Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind and this year’s short How to Shoot a Ghost said the film industry has “everything to do with [why] the world is in a terrible, terrible situation right now.” As part of said industry, Kaufman considers it a personal responsibility to “not put garbage into th

When Astronauts Enter Space, a "Dark Genome" Activates in Their DNA

Why the Oracle-OpenAI deal caught Wall Street by surprise

This week, OpenAI and Oracle shocked the markets with a surprise $300 billion, five-year agreement, part of a surge of new business that sent the cloud provider’s stock skyrocketing. But maybe the markets shouldn’t have been taken by surprise. The deal is a reminder that, despite Oracle’s legacy status, the company still plays a major role in AI infrastructure. On the OpenAI side, the agreement was more revealing than the lack of details suggest. For one, the startup’s willingness to pay so muc

Pixel phones might soon stream emergencies in real-time just like iPhones (APK teardown)

Joe Maring / Android Authority TL;DR Google is working on a new feature that will allow you to share live video with emergency services.

For example, there’s Car Crash Detection, Safety Che

I don't like curved displays

I don't like curved displays ​ The vast majority of media uses rectilinear lenses, where straight lines in 3D remain straight in a 2D image: Each light ray lands on a flat rectangle that lies between the viewpoint and the light source, so viewing the image on a flat screen looks exactly the same as how it originally appeared. A curved screen won't do that — straight lines are no longer straight!
