Out of all caffeinated rituals, Turkish coffee takes the (coffee) cake. That’s because, according to some experts, Turkish coffee isn't a type of coffee—it’s a cooking method. Commonly seen across Middle Eastern cultures, the beverage looks and acts similar to espresso, served in a small cup and tasting very rich yet very different. Turkish coffee is made with coffee ground finer than espresso (the ideal Turkish coffee grind has a flourlike consistency) and a brewing process that involves boili

The star of Magrathea’s process is an electrolyzer, a device that uses electricity to split a material into its constituent elements. Using an electrolyzer in magnesium production isn’t new, but Magrathea’s approach represents an update. “We really modernized it and brought it into the 21st century,” says Alex Grant, Magrathea’s cofounder and CEO. The whole process starts with salty water. There are small amounts of magnesium in seawater, as well as in salt lakes and groundwater. (In seawater,

Editor's take: Despite US export bans following the invasion of Ukraine, chips continue flowing into Russia through a complex web of unofficial channels. The key takeaway is that sanctions often look strong on paper but remain porous in practice. For now, efforts to cut off Russia's access to high-end chips appear largely symbolic. Russia's official customs data suggests the country's once-thriving market for US-made processors has nearly disappeared. Figures from the Federal Customs Service (F
