Nearly 20% of cancer drugs defective in four African nations

Across Africa, cancer medications have been found to be substandard or counterfeit. That means people are being given medicine that may not work, or that could even cause them harm.

‘We are the media now’: why Tesla’s robotaxis were dominated by Elon Musk superfans

theverge.com Mack Degeurin 2026-02-21 09:30:00

Over the years, Tesla has built part of its reputation on hosting big, bold events to generate authentic hype for upcoming releases. The robotaxi launch in Austin, Texas, last week wasn’t one of them. Coverage of the rollout was dominated by a close-knit cohort of Tesla influencers and Elon Musk superfans, many of whom are openly supportive of the CEO’s vision. Journalists and tech bloggers who might have been more critical of the technology were not only excluded but also actively ridiculed an

Microloan Apps May Be Poised to Destroy the Economy

We love microlending, don't we, folks? Unlike old-school credit cards, with their days-long approval processes and prior credit minimums, buy-now, pay-later (BNPL) apps — companies like Klarna and Afterpay — offer hard-up customers instant financing options to buy the junk they crave the instant they see it. In the United States, purchases made with these apps currently don't even affect your FICO credit score — or at least, they never used to. That's all about to change this fall, when Fair I
