Father of two here. I started coding in BASIC when I was 8 and fell in love with computers. It evolved into a passion for building products, and it has been my life's career. My son is showing interest in programming, mostly because, like other kids, he wants to make games. That's what got me started, too :) We've been working with Scratch and GameMaker, and I’ve been focusing on fundamentals like logic, structure, and problem-solving.

WTF?! Would you be willing to wear a stick-on facial tattoo that makes you look like a poor Cyberpunk 2077 cosplayer?

Pixar's Finding Nemo immortalized the colorful clownfish, with its distinctive orange body and white stripes, in the popular imagination. Clownfish, like many other species, are feeling the stress of rising temperatures and other environmental stressors. Fortunately, they have a superpower to cope: They can shrink their body size during dangerous heat waves to substantially boost their odds of survival, according to a new paper published in the journal Science Advances. “This is not just about

A couple of years ago, a longevity lobbying group helped develop a bill that expanded on the state’s existing Right to Try law, which allowed seriously ill people to apply for access to experimental drugs (that is, drugs that have not been approved by drug regulators). The expansion, which was passed in 2023, opened access for people who are not seriously ill.

Doctors say they constructed a bespoke gene-editing treatment in less than seven months and used it to treat a baby with a deadly metabolic condition. The rapid-fire attempt to rewrite the child’s DNA marks the first time gene editing has been tailored to treat a single individual. The baby who was treated, Kyle “KJ” Muldoon Jr., suffers from a rare metabolic condition caused by a particularly unusual gene misspelling.

The last 5 years, if not more, has seen the US and other countries like the UK gripped by the narrative that there’s a youth mental health crisis. That’s not actually true…there’s little evidence of a crisis at all in most European countries. For the US, there definitely is a mental health crisis but, if anything, it’s most pronounced among two groups…middle-aged white men, and young American Indian men. Not teen girls, who actually commit suicide about the least often of any demographic group.

Montana is set to become a proving ground for experimental medical treatments, thanks to a newly passed bill. The bill, signed into law by Governor Greg Gianforte this week, will permit clinics and doctors to sell and provide nearly any experimental drug to potential patients, so long as it has undergone at least one Phase I clinical trial. Advocates argue that the law will allow Montana to be a hub for medical tourism, especially for potentially life-extending medicine, while some bioethicists

The happiness curve is collapsing. For decades, research showed that the way people experienced happiness across their lifetimes looked like a U-shaped curve. Happiness tended to be high when they were young, then dipped in midlife, only to rise again as they grew old. But recent surveys suggest that young adults aren’t as happy as they used to be, and that U-shaped curve is starting to flatten. This pattern has shown up yet again in a new study, one of a collection of papers published on Wed
