The International Mathematical Olympiad (“IMO”) is the world’s most prestigious competition for young mathematicians, and has been held annually since 1959. Each country taking part is represented by six elite, pre-university mathematicians who compete to solve six exceptionally difficult problems in algebra, combinatorics, geometry, and number theory. Medals are awarded to the top half of contestants, with approximately 8% receiving a prestigious gold medal. Recently, the IMO has also become a
It's hard to express just how good this game is. Sandfall Interactive's Claire Obscur: Expedition 33 feels as impactful and genre-defining as ground-breaking Japanese-style roleplaying games before it, like Final Fantasy. It mixes classic turn-based combat with real-time action gameplay, giving the combat a new yet familiar feel. The story pulls you in right from the start with its melancholy tone and gorgeous French setting, and the cast of characters will no doubt be forever etched into video
Mercedes-Benz provided flights from Detroit to Stuttgart, Germany, and accommodation so Ars could be briefed on the AMG.EA prototype as well as the GT XX that we covered last month. Ars does not accept paid editorial content. First-generation high-performance electric vehicles, like the Tesla Model S Plaid, had a party trick that would wow first-timers: straight-line acceleration. Feeling your internal organs shift under the G forces of acceleration is cool the first few times but gets annoying
Edgar Cervantes / Android Authority TL;DR Google Messages may introduce a new animation for the media player. Videos and images now slide into view from the bottom of the screen instead of fading in and out. You can also swipe down to close an image or video. Google is not new to tweaking its apps. Sometimes, those changes improve the experience, make the experience worse, or have no effect at all. The next tweak is coming for the Messages app, and it seems like an update that will fall into

Elon Musk, the rightwing culture warrior waging a “civilization-saving” battle against the “woke mind virus,” apparently isn’t above taking advantage of diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) programs when it serves his business purposes. Neuralink, the $9 billion brain implant startup that Musk founded, recently characterized itself as a “small disadvantaged business” in a federal filing with the Small Business Administration. The SBA website notes that Neuralink attested in its filings that i
Employees of the crucial scientific research arm of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) have been left with more questions than answers as the agency moves to officially wind down the office following months of back-and-forth. On Friday evening, the EPA issued a press release announcing a reduction in force at the Office of Research and Development (ORD), citing the move as part of a larger effort to save a purported $748.8 million. On Monday, some employees at ORD, the largest office in
Google announced Monday the removal of nearly 11,000 YouTube channels and other accounts tied to state-linked propaganda campaigns from China, Russia and more in the second quarter. The takedown included more than 7,700 YouTube channels linked to China. These campaigns primarily shared content in Chinese and English that promoted the People's Republic of China, supported President Xi Jinping and commented on U.S. foreign affairs. Over 2,000 removed channels were linked to Russia. The content

The Federal Communications Commission is ditching Biden-era standards for measuring progress toward the goal of universal broadband deployment. The changes will make it easier for the FCC to give the broadband industry a passing grade in an annual progress report. FCC Chairman Brendan Carr's proposal would give the industry a thumbs-up even if it falls short of 100 percent deployment, eliminate a long-term goal of gigabit broadband speeds, and abandon a new effort to track the affordability of
Microsoft just launched a service for Xbox Insiders that brings all cloud-playable games, along with play histories, to the official Xbox PC app. This includes console exclusives spanning multiple generations and hundreds of other releases. The service extends to games owned by the player and Game Pass titles. The big hook here is that recently-played games will follow people across devices, including Xbox consoles, PCs and Windows handhelds. This will make it easier for folks to jump back into
In December, 1988, as the Soviet Union was beginning to come apart, Senator Bill Bradley, a member of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence, convened a closed-door hearing with several of the C.I.A.’s top Soviet experts. These were analysts, not operatives. They did not run spies or weapons, or shoot poisoned darts at people; mostly, they sat at their desks at Langley, reading Pravda or studying photographs of Soviet military parades. The hearing found them in a melancholy mood, pondering

Google has introduced new features for Chrome on iOS that help users bifurcate work and personal data by using separate Google accounts. As more employers implement bring your own device (BYOD) policies, employees increasingly access company resources from browsers on their personal devices. Devices connected to a managed Google Workspace are able to leverage these additions. Chrome now supports easy account switching and data separation on iOS, similar to its approach on Android and Chrome for

Google announced Monday that it’s introducing a new feature that lets iOS users easily switch between work and personal Google accounts in Chrome. Previously, iOS users had to completely sign out of a Google account and then log in with another, and repeat this process every time they want to access a different account. “People often use their mobile device for both work and personal tasks, requiring them to sign in and out with different Google accounts,” the company wrote in a blog post. “To

We are likely to see this story repeat itself, with only the names at the top changing. Mercedes-Benz’s latest announcement does not bode well for the future of electric vehicles in the United States, especially as federal tax breaks are set to expire. On September 30, the federal incentives introduced under the Biden administration to support EV adoption will officially disappear. These tax credits were designed to offset the higher cost of EVs compared to gas-powered vehicles. But with the cl
While shooting Predator: Badlands, director Dan Trachtenberg and his team called it by a codename: “Backpack.” The origin of that name becomes very clear, very quickly in a brand-new action-packed trailer for the film, which features Elle Fanning as a Weyland-Yutani android being carried around by a Predator on his back. Here’s the incredible new trailer for Predator: Badlands: Clearly, there is so much going on in this trailer. So much mythology. So many teases of what’s possible. For example
I’ve been using Informed Delivery from USPS for over 5 years now, and am generally a big fan. However, I’ve noticed that every once in a while I’ll catch a scan of a piece of mail that is not addressed to me. Here is an example of the most recent. Notice, the image contains 2 pieces of mail. The one in back is addressed to me, and I assume I’ll receive it later today. The one in front is addressed to some unknown neighbor in my zip code. As a security conscious software developer, this kind of
Starlink is nearly twice as fast as it was two years ago, according to a new report from the speed test site Ookla. (Disclosure: Ookla is owned by the same parent company as CNET, Ziff Davis.) Median download speeds from the satellite internet provider have steadily ticked up over the past few years, going from 53.95 megabits per second in 2022 to 104.71Mbps today. That’s an impressive feat considering Starlink added about 5 million customers over the same period and recently passed the 6 milli
The new Superman movie continues to rule the box office after its second weekend, leading the pack with $57 million from US audiences, and this relaunch of the DC universe is only getting started. Superman stars Rachel Brosnahan as Lois Lane, Nicholas Hoult as Lex Luthor and David Corenswet as the Man of Steel. The movie isn't an origin story; it picks up when Superman is already well-known (and moments after he loses any fight-winning streak he previously had). I won't provide any more details

Spanish law enforcement arrested five people suspected of running an international cryptocurrency investment fraud scheme that laundered more than €460 million ($542 million) from over 5,000 victims worldwide, according to a statement from Europol. The suspects, based in Madrid and the Canary Islands, allegedly operated a global network of accomplices who collected money through cash deposits, wire transfers and cryptocurrency transactions. According to Spain’s Guardia Civil, the criminal ring
Honorable Mentions We've tried a lot of pizza ovens. Here are a few that we liked that didn't quite make the cut. Photograph: Adrienne So Ooni Karu, First Edition for $349: Ooni is still selling the previous generation oven of WIRED's top pick, the Karu 2, for about $100 less. Like other Ooni pizza ovens, O.G.
