Hundreds of thousands—if not over a million—years ago, humans discovered how to make fire.

Donald Trump Jr. is distancing himself from his father's meme coin — while defending the family's broader foray into crypto as a response to being frozen out of the traditional banking system. "I wasn't involved in the meme coin," Trump Jr. said in an interview on CNBC's "Squawk Box." "I'm more focused on the stablecoin, the bitcoin mining." Meme coins are a class of cryptocurrency fueled by social media buzz and celebrity hype rather than real-world utility. They often skyrocket in value befo

Most movie fans were surprised to hear we were getting not one, but two new Predator movies this year. We knew that Dan Trachtenberg, the director of Prey, was working on a live-action Predator movie with Elle Fanning. But then we heard, seemingly out of nowhere, that we were also getting an animated Predator movie. It’s called Predator: Killer of Killers, and it comes to Hulu June 6.

While reading through the fantastic book The Lost Art of Logarithms by Charles Petzold I was nerd-sniped by a simple method of estimating the logarithm of any number base 10. According to the book, it was developed by John Napier (the father of the logarithm) about 1615. In french the natural logarithm is also called “le logarithm népérien” in reference to the mathematician.

Imports of goods into the U.S. dropped a record 19.8% in April, according to estimates released by the U.S. Commerce Department on Friday. That drop is in sharp contrast to a 5.7% uptick of goods imported in March, widely believed to be driven by U.S. retailers and consumers buying in advance of President Donald Trump’s tariff threats, which are expected to cause prices to soar. The new estimates show that America’s trade deficit with the rest of the world narrowed by 46% to $87.6 billion, acco
