RFK Jr. Accuses Congressman of Being Paid by Big Pharma to Support Vaccines

Robert F. Kennedy Jr., the Secretary of Health and Human Services, faced over three hours of questioning at a House subcommittee hearing on Tuesday that covered everything from the shocking errors in his first major health report to his complete ignorance of federal lawsuits against major health insurance companies. But one of the standout moments during the hearing occurred when Kennedy suggested that a sitting member of Congress only opposed the health secretary’s actions because he was bought

Zombie Dong Will Return in ’28 Years Later: The Bone Temple’

Two topics of conversation dominated the opening weekend of Danny Boyle’s new film, 28 Years Later. One, that wild ending that introduced a seemingly out-of-place controversial new character. And two was the sheer amount, and size, of the penises seen in the film. Throughout 28 Years Later, the Rage virus-infected zombies that run around the mainland are all naked. As one would be if you’d been running around killing people as a zombie for 30 years. That means, yes, there’s lots of nudity in th

‘Witcher’ Author Understands Why George R.R. Martin Is Taking So Long on ‘Winds of Winter’

It’s been over a decade since the last Witcher book was released—2013’s Season of Storms, which got an English translation in 2018—but there’s a new title coming very soon from Andrzej Sapkowski: September’s Crossroads of Ravens. In between books, Netflix launched its hit Witcher series, which still has a fourth and fifth season yet to share. That puts Sapkowski on a different sort of timeline from another author whose fans have been waiting awhile for a new book to arrive in his adapted-for-TV

A nasal spray company wants to make it harder for the FTC to police health claims

In the midst of the covid-19 pandemic, a health products company called Xlear began advertising its saline nasal spray to people desperately searching for ways to protect themselves from a new virus. In its marketing, Xlear pointed to studies that it said supported the idea that ingredients in the spray could block viruses from sticking to the nasal cavity. Based on its interpretation of the science, Xlear promoted the product as one part of a “layered defense” against contracting covid. In 202

People Are Already Dropping Dead as Extreme Heat Scorches the US

In large swaths of these United States, people are already dying from this summer's brutal heat wave. According to St. Louis' KMOV, a 55-year-old woman was found dead in her apartment this week after her electricity had been shut off during this so-called "heat dome" phenomenon — which involves heat being trapped by atmospheric conditions, as if by a lid or a cap. Reporting from KSDK, another area broadcaster, indicated that the woman had been stranded in her apartment without air conditioning

Bacteria can be engineered to sense a variety of molecules, such as pollutants or soil nutrients, but usually these signals must be detected microscopically. Now Christopher Voigt, head of MIT’s Department of Biological Engineering, and colleagues have triggered bacterial cells to produce signals that can be read from as far as 90 meters away. Their work could lead to the development of sensors for agricultural and other applications, which could be monitored by drones or satellites. The resea

It has something to do with the brain,” she says.

So much of Gundam GQuuuuuuX‘s riffing on the legacy of the 1979 original across its 12 episodes has been almost about a yearning sense of inevitability that it could only end in one way—a retread of what came before narratively, and a continuation of the cycle of conflict that has broadly defined the franchise at large and the Universal Century setting that GQuuuuuuX played with in particular.

New data highlights the race to build more empathetic language models

Measuring AI progress has usually meant testing scientific knowledge or logical reasoning – but while the major benchmarks still focus on left-brain logic skills, there’s been a quiet push within AI companies to make models more emotionally intelligent. As foundation models compete on soft measures like user preference and “feeling the AGI,” having a good command of human emotions may be more important than hard analytic skills.
