techspot.com Daniel Sims 2026-01-20 21:18:00

Serving tech enthusiasts for over 25 years.TechSpot means tech analysis and advice you can trust In a nutshell: Dropbox will discontinue its password manager on October 28, permanently (and hopefully securely) deleting any credentials still stored on that date. The company recommends switching to 1Password because it supports importing data directly from Dropbox; however, other options are also worth considering.

The Download: OpenAI’s future research, and US climate regulation is under threat

technologyreview.com Rhiannon Williams 2026-01-21 06:10:00

—Will Douglas Heaven For the past couple of years, OpenAI has felt like a one-man brand. With his showbiz style and fundraising glitz, CEO Sam Altman overshadows all other big names on the firm’s roster. But Altman is not the one building the technology on which its reputation rests. That responsibility falls to OpenAI’s twin heads of research—chief research officer Mark Chen and chief scientist Jakub Pachocki. Between them, they share the role of making sure OpenAI stays one step ahead of

Scientists Say New Government Climate Report Twists Their Work

wired.com Molly Taft 2026-01-22 11:31:16

A new report released yesterday by the Department of Energy purports to provide “a critical assessment of the conventional narrative on climate change.” But nine scientists across several different disciplines told WIRED that the report mishandled citations of their work: by cherrypicking data, misrepresenting findings, drawing erroneous conclusions, or leaving out relevant context. This report was introduced on the same day that the EPA announced it would seek to roll back the endangerment fin

An EPA rule change threatens to gut US climate regulations

technologyreview.com Casey Crownhart 2026-01-23 11:29:49

The proposed rule will go up for public comment, and the agency will then take that feedback and come up with a final version. It’ll almost certainly get hit with legal challenges and will likely wind up in front of the Supreme Court. One note here is that the EPA makes a mostly legal argument in the proposed rule reversal rather than focusing on going after the science of climate change, says Madison Condon, an associate law professor at Boston University.
