How to motivate yourself to do a thing you don't want to do

We have an air bike in our basement. If you are unfamiliar with air bikes, they are similar to stationary bikes with foot pedals but also have handles you push and pull with your arms. It uses air resistance, so the harder you pedal and move your arms, the higher the resistance. It’s also known as an assault bike. 😬 Which is apt, because it’s a butt-kicker of a workout. I use it about once a week, more frequently in the winter when it’s too cold to run, and less often in the summer when I can

Jaguar Land Rover to pause production for third week due to cyberattack

In Brief Luxury car-maker Jaguar Land Rover said Tuesday it will not resume vehicle manufacturing operations until at least September 24 due to a cyberattack earlier this month. In a new statement, the company said it informed colleagues, suppliers, and partners that the halt in production will extend into its third week. The company said this was due to “the controlled restart of our global operations, which will take time,” the company wrote. Laura Savvas, a spokesperson for Jaguar Land Ro

Experimental Spacecraft Headed to Space Station Suddenly Shuts Down

Lost in space. A whopping 11,000 pounds of supplies and scientific instruments that were headed to the International Space Station are in limbo after a high-profile malfunction. Northrop Grumman's Cygnus XL spacecraft encountered a serious problem with its main engine during its maiden voyage, NASA announced on Tuesday. The spacecraft, which is just over five feet longer than the aerospace giant's Cygnus spacecraft, launched from the Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida on Sunday eve

Garmin's new smartwatch for kids costs more than the Apple Watch SE

Garmin just announced a refresh of its Bounce smartwatch for kids and the big headline is the exorbitant price. It costs $300, which is twice the cost of the previous generation and $50 more than an Apple Watch SE. The Bounce 2 still offers tracking and communication features, both powered by an LTE connection. The exterior has been completely redesigned, with a rounded 1.2-inch AMOLED display. The original model was square-ish, resembling an Apple Watch. Communication is better here, which is

Procedural Island Generation (III)

Resulting terrain elevation with multi-scale noise layers and mountain peaks This post continues from Part II, where we established the paint map foundation and mountain ridge system.

Speaker Johnson says China is straining U.S. relations with Nvidia chip ban

U.S. House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) speaks with reporters outside his office in the U.S. Capitol in Washington, D.C., U.S., Sept. 11, 2025. Republican House Speaker Mike Johnson called China an "adversary" of the U.S. on Wednesday after a report that the country has told tech companies to stop buying Nvidia 's artificial intelligence chips. The Cyberspace Administration of China ordered companies to halt purchases of Nvidia's RTX Pro 6000D, a chip that was made for the country, the FT repor

StubHub prices IPO at $23.50, valuing company at $8.6 billion

The StubHub logo is seen at its headquarters in San Francisco. Online ticket platform StubHub priced its IPO at $23.50, in a share sale that values the company at $8.6 billion. The pricing late Tuesday landed at the mid-point of the expected range that the company gave last week, raising $800 million. StubHub said its shares are expected to begin trading on the New York Stock Exchange on Wednesday under the symbol "STUB." The San Francisco-based company was co-founded by Eric Baker in 2000, a

How to measure the returns on R&D spending

Sure, it’s easy to argue for the importance of spending on science by pointing out that many of today’s most useful technologies had their origins in government-funded R&D. The internet, CRISPR, GPS—the list goes on and on. All true. But this argument ignores all the technologies that received millions in government funding and haven’t gone anywhere—at least not yet. We still don’t have DNA computers or molecular electronics. Never mind the favorite examples cited by contrarian politicians of se

The New York Times Mini Crossword Is Behind a Paywall: Here's a Way to Play

I'm a fan of the New York Times Mini Crossword -- a sporty, streamlined companion to the newspaper's legendary regular daily crossword. Typically, the Mini Crossword (we publish the answers daily) has roughly a dozen clues to work through -- six across-clues and six down-clues -- and you can complete it in less than a minute if all goes well. It makes me feel smart, unlike the big crossword, which sometimes makes me throw things. But in late August, some Mini Crossword players suddenly ran int

'M3GAN 2.0' Is Coming to Streaming. Here's When to Watch

If you missed M3GAN 2.0 when it hit theaters earlier this year (or you want to relive the glory of the sequel), you're in luck. Everyone's favorite A.I. murder companion is coming to streaming -- including the Unrated version. Buckle up. M3GAN 2.0 brings the robot diva back to action as she faces off against a new threat. The result is a sequel that ups the kills and leans into the action, while still serving plenty of attitude. This time, though, instead of posing a danger to Cady (Violet McG

Microsoft, Nvidia, other tech giants plan over $40 billion of new AI investments in UK

LONDON — Microsoft said on Tuesday that it plans to invest $30 billion in the U.K. by 2028, as the company builds out its artificial intelligence infrastructure.

I got the highest score on ARC-AGI again swapping Python for English

I think ARC-AGI is still the most important benchmark we have today. It’s surprising that LLMs can win the math olympiad but struggle with simple puzzles that humans can solve easily. This highlights a core limitation of current LLMs: they struggle to reason about things they weren't trained on. They struggle to generalize. But they are getting better, fast. Last December, I got first place on ARC-AGI v1 with a score of 53.6%. A lot has changed since then. Thinking models had just come out and

Ozempic May Be Less Effective for Emotional Eaters, Study Suggests

GLP-1 agonists—so-called “wonder drugs” like Ozempic or Wegovy that help individuals lower blood sugar levels and lose weight, among other things—yield significant results for some patients, but not all. People’s motivations to overeat may play a role in this, according to a new study. To investigate why some people don’t benefit from GLP-1 agonists as much as others, researchers observed 92 participants with type 2 diabetes in Japan during their first year of taking GLP-1 drugs. Their results,

Apple Vision Pro gains support for digital prism correction

A longstanding limitation of Apple Vision Pro was that it did not offer support for vision prescriptions with a prism value. With visionOS 26, however, you can now enter the prism values from your prescription and visionOS will adapt through software. Since the launch of Apple Vision Pro, there has been a warning for those looking to buy the ZEISS Optical Inserts: A very small percentage of people have a prism value added to their glasses prescription. At this time, ZEISS Optical Inserts based
