4 Things You Should Never Cook in a Nonstick Skillet, According to an Expert

Nonstick cookware has its place in the kitchen, but its limitations should keep it from being your everyday pan. When used in the wrong situations, nonstick cookware can tank a recipe, leaving meat and vegetables without a proper sear. Some foods can damage the surface of your nonstick skillet, leading to a shorter lifespan or the release of nonstick materials into your food. As much as we love the easy cleanup, most foods fare better in a stainless-steel, carbon-steel, or cast-iron skillet. I

Edgar Cervantes / Android Authority TL;DR AT&T is testing out an agentic AI tool that can identify and filter out robocallers. The “digital receptionist” screens calls to determine if the caller is human, how urgent the call is, and whether it meets your customized criteria before passing the call to you.

Cloudflare CEO’s ‘Frighteningly Likely’ Forecast for How AI Will Ruin the Internet

Cloudflare CEO Matthew Prince is the latest tech executive to ring the warning bells for a near-term dystopian AI scenario. Speaking to WIRED’s Big Interview Podcast on Tuesday, Prince said that he thinks the days of search engines being “the dominant interface of the web” are already long gone. “Now, if you run a search, it gives you back an answer at the top of the page. It doesn’t give you a treasure map. Instead, it provides you with what they call an AI Overview, which has taken a whole b

Scuba-Suit-Clad Thief Steals Thousands of Dollars From Floating Disney World Restaurant in Heist Ripped Right Out of the Movies

When we hear of criminal activity at Walt Disney World, it’s not usually pertaining to an action sequence that feels like it’s come right out of a Disney movie itself. But that was apparently the case this week in Orlando, when over $10,000 was stolen from a Disney World restaurant by a scuba-diving criminal mastermind.

Don't Miss This Claustrophobic Sci-Fi Nightmare Streaming Free on Tubi

There's something about sci-fi horror that hits all the buttons for me. Derelict spaceships the size of cities, creatures engineered by science or nature to be perfect predators and the claustrophobia of space all manage to get me excited every time. The Alien franchise made me fall in love with this sub-genre, along with gems like Dark City and Event Horizon. One of my lesser-known favorites is Pandorum. Released in 2009, it's a claustrophobic trip into space where a mechanic wakes up on a col

A new report finds China’s space program will soon equal that of the US

"I thought I had a pretty good read on this when I was finishing grad school," Roll told Ars. "That

IEEE 2881: Learning Metadata Terms (LMT) Empowers Learning in the AI Age

Introduction Learning Metadata Terms (LMT) is a standard that connects metadata terms in practice with the purpose of solving many use cases common to e-learning.
