We already live in social credit, we just don't call it that

Photo by Avery Evans on Unsplash Your credit score is social credit. Your LinkedIn endorsements are social credit. Your Uber passenger rating, Instagram engagement metrics, Amazon reviews, and Airbnb host status are all social credit systems that track you, score you, and reward you based on your behavior. Social credit, in its original economic definition, means distributing industry profits to consumers to increase purchasing power. But the term has evolved far beyond economics. Today, it de

‘Avengers: Doomsday’ Stars Tease Doom and Character Development

As Avengers: Doomsday continues production, its actors are building up hype for the superhero team’s next big outing.

They want to keep the drama and keep it t

What health care providers actually want from AI

Hungry Worms Could Help Solve Plastic Pollution

Plastics that support modern life are inexpensive, strong, and versatile, but are difficult to dispose of and have a serious impact when released into the environment. Polyethylene, in particular, is the most widely produced plastic in the world, with more than 100 million tons distributed annually. Since it can take decades to decompose—and along the way can harm wildlife and degrade into harmful microplastics—its disposal is an urgent issue for mankind. In 2017, European researchers discovere

Compiling Dinner

Compiling Dinner When you read a recipe, you’re already programming. Ingredients are inputs. Actions—chop, stir, simmer—are instructions. The kitchen is your runtime environment, and you, the cook, are the processor. If you follow the recipe to the letter, you get the expected output: a finished dish. Miss a step, and you’ve introduced a bug. Burn the onions, and you’ve hit a runtime error. Seen this way, recipes are languages, and cooking is compilation. ⸻ Recipes as Grammar A recipe might

Enforcing Australia's social media ban on kids is possible but contains risks, report says

Enforcing Australia's social media ban on kids is possible but contains risks, report says Though the move is popular with many parents, experts have raised concerns over data privacy and the accuracy of age verification technology.

My Foray into Vlang

Table of contents A little bit about Go I like Go. I actually don’t mind writing err != nil that much. Just set up a snippet and you’re good to Go. Although, I never really felt like I had a honeymoon period with Go. I learned the language, learned about channels, wrote a bunch of CRUDs and parsers and CLIs. It always felt strictly business. I thought it was because of where I am in my career. But I was wrong. Go is vanilla. It just werks. You build it, you ship it. The language is simple and

Scammers Will Try to Trick You Into Filling Out Google Forms. Don’t Fall for It

One of the lesser-known apps in the Google Drive online suite is Google Forms. It's an easy, intuitive way to create a web form for other people to enter information into. You can use it for employee surveys, for organizing social gatherings, for giving people a way to contact you, and much more. But Google Forms can also be used for malicious purposes. These forms can be created in minutes, with clean and clear formatting, official-looking images and video, and—most importantly of all—a genuin
