Zebrafish have the remarkable and rare ability to regrow and repair their hearts after damage. New research from Caltech and UC Berkeley has identified the circuit of genes controlling this ability and offers clues about how a human heart might someday be repaired after damage, such as a heart attack or in cases of congenital heart defects. The research was a collaboration between the laboratories of Marianne Bronner, Caltech's Edward B. Lewis Professor of Biology and director of the Beckman In

Rita El Khoury / Android Authority The smart ring arena is evolving quickly, but Oura still sets the pace. Its current-generation ring is polished, feature-packed, and impressively reliable. Yet, no device line is immune to the itch for something more. With new rivals entering the scene and wearables advancing rapidly, now feels like the right time to think about what’s next. The Oura Ring 5 is likely a ways out, but I’m already daydreaming about what the next model might include. A refined de

Two hundred years ago this month, Samuel Pepys’s diary was published to great acclaim. Readers of the first edition in 1825 relished Pepys’s ‘honest’ observations and ‘private anecdotes’. While writing his journal in the 1660s, Pepys had worked hard to keep it secret. He knew he was placing his livelihood at risk by recording seditious criticisms of his superiors, along with details of his own bribe-taking and sexually explicit accounts of his ‘amours’. There was much that, when writing, he did

June 30, 2025 5 minute read Context Engineering is new term gaining traction in the AI world. The conversation is shifting from "prompt engineering" to a broader, more powerful concept: Context Engineering. Tobi Lutke describes it as "the art of providing all the context for the task to be plausibly solvable by the LLM.” and he is right. With the rise of Agents it becomes more important what information we load into the “limited working memory”. We are seeing that the main thing that determine
As Spider-Man fans look ahead to Spider-Man: Brand New Day, arriving in theaters next summer, there’s still a lot of love for 2021’s Spider-Man: No Way Home, especially for its incorporation of previous Spider-Men Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield into Tom Holland’s Marvel world. As you might expect, the multiple Spidey reveal was a scene director Jon Watts and his team spent a lot of time plotting out—even consulting an unexpected source to help shape things: Reddit. According to Collider, Wat
Like Pudding Pops and Benetton sweaters, another 1980s icon is gone. After 40 years of delivering the tragic news of a PC crash to Windows users, Microsoft's infamous "blue screen of death" is going away. A black screen of death will be replacing it, albeit without the sad face. The blue screen of death has been around since Windows 1.0 came out in 1985. Named for its bright blue color, it's a critical error screen that pops up on computers using the Microsoft Windows operating system when the

AT&T believes its network wasn’t at fault for a conference call where President Donald Trump accused the company of being “totally unable to make their equipment work properly.” Instead, AT&T is blaming an unnamed “conference call platform.” Earlier on Monday, President Donald Trump complained on Truth Social about apparent issues with AT&T’s network during a “major conferenc
Microsoft Authenticator is sunsetting its ability to store your passwords. This month, the service stopped allowing users to add or import new passwords. Beginning in July 2025, users will no longer be able to use autofill with Authenticator, and in August 2025, passwords will no longer be available at all. Payment information stored in Authenticator will be deleted after July, and after the following month, all unsaved generated passwords will be deleted. Passkeys will still be supported in Aut

Lifetime storage inventors should be given a Nobel Prize. While we’re not sure pCloud invented it, its Lifetime cloud storage offers have always been worthy of one. This time, it’s no different, as you can save up to $1,320 on its cloud storage with client-side encryption. However, the deal won’t last forever, as encryption is regularly a paid add-on. So, if you’re enthralled by exciting news, let’s explain the whole deal and see how to claim it before it evaporates. Save up to 70% on pCloud
Heads up if you’ve been using Microsoft Authenticator as a password manager: the app is phasing out support for password autofill, and all saved passwords will be deleted by August. Here’s what to do. The changes are part of Microsoft’s plan to consolidate its credential management tools under the Edge browser. Going forward, password autofill will only be available through Edge, not Authenticator. What’s changing, and when Starting June 2025, you will no longer be able to Add or Import new p
11 Bit Studios has drawn the ire of players for the undisclosed use of artificial intelligence in its recent release, The Alters. The new project from the team behind Frostpunk and This War of Mine is a narratively and thematically interesting take on a science fiction survival game. The project contains a lot of dialogue and written text, and some players discovered in-game copy that appeared to be generated by a large language model. The Steam storefront requires that games disclose when they
Nintendo of Canada has announced that the pricing of the Switch, its accessories, its games and even Amiibo figures, will all be changing in Canada come August. The pricing adjustment is being made "based on market conditions," according to the the announcement. It's not clear how much the price of the Switch family of products will be changing — Nintendo said new prices will be posted on its Canadian website on August 1 — but presumably they'll be going up. The company currently sells the Swit

The Hall of Presidents at Walt Disney World has officially reopened after a six-month refurbishment, which included moving former President Joe Biden from center stage. The closure encompassed the eventful first half of President Donald Trump’s current administration—but now, the animatronic, which debuted with a very eerie countenance during his first term, has returned with a makeover. The Magic Kingdom’s attraction always features the country’s current leader presiding over the show alongsid

The allure and terror of transferring your consciousness to a computer has long been fodder for cyberpunk novels and billionaire-backed immortality startups. But a substantial chunk of neuroscientists think it might be possible to extract memories from a preserved brain and store those memories inside a computer, according to a new study. The study, published in the journal PLOS One, suggests that most neuroscientists believe that memory has a physical basis and, on average, give a 40% probabil

There are no bad iPads.

Apple’s App Store is enormous and filled with great apps, Apple’s performance and battery life are consistently excellent, and the iPad is still the company’s most versatile device. That’s one easy answer to your question: yes, if you want a tablet you should buy an iPad. Even last year’s iPad, or
Apple TV+ has so far had its most successful year ever. Severance was a big part of that, but so too were several hit new series.
