Extreme Heat Makes Your Body Age Faster

It is well known that heat causes exhaustion in the body due to dehydration. But aging?

In the fall of 2021, I found myself burnt out both professionally and personally. I was ready for a change.

The pandemic, however, had taken a great toll on me and my family. I spent much of it working long hours making sure restaurants could continue to conduct business and survive, at the

AI psychosis (NYT, PsychologyToday) is an apparent phenomenon where people go crazy after talking to chatbots too much. There are some high-profile anecdotes, but still many unanswered questions. For example, how common is it really? Are the chatbots really driving people crazy, or just catching the attention of people who were crazy already? Isn’t psychosis supposed to be a biological disease? Wouldn’t that make chatbot-induced psychosis the same kind of category error as chatbot-induced diabet

Even the Libyan government got in on the piracy racket, illegally packaging the Arabic-speaking Disney channel along with 19 others and selling it just for 150 Libyan dinars.
