In a new interview with the Hollywood Reporter, Star Wars‘ Mark Hamill unpacked his recent resurgence in popularity, stating, “I certainly didn’t expect to have this sudden burst of life so late in the game. I should be spending time wandering the beaches with a metal detector. I can’t explain why, all of a sudden, I have five features this year.” As the actor notes, “There was a point about five years ago where I thought that it’s not easy getting older, and it’s even harder when you’re doing

wired.com Sofia Barnett 2025-11-10 18:00:00

One day last spring, in a high school classroom in Texas, students were arguing about who to kill off first. It was a thought experiment with a sci-fi premise: A global zombie outbreak has decimated major cities. One hundred frozen embryos meant to reboot humanity are safe in a bomb shelter, but the intended adult caretakers never made it. Instead, 12 random civilians stumbled in. There’s only enough food and oxygen for seven. The students had to decide who would die and who would live to raise

The L-Space Web Death and What Comes Next A Discworld short story By Terry Pratchett Copyright © Terry Pratchett 2002 When Death met the philosopher, the philosopher said, rather excitedly: "At this point, you realise, I'm both dead and not dead." There was a sigh from Death. Oh dear, one of those, he thought. This is going to be about quantum again. He hated dealing with philosophers. They always tried to wriggle out of it. "You see," said the philosopher, while Death, motionless, watched

Image by Getty / Futurism Neuroscience/Brain Science New advances in brain-computer interface (BCI) technology may make speech for those who've lost the ability to do so easier than ever before. In a new, groundbreaking study published in the journal Cell, researchers from Stanford University claimed that they have found a way to decode the "inner speech" of those who can no longer vocalize, making it far less difficult to talk with friends and family than previous BCIs that required them to e

SO MUCH DEPENDS UPON La Vache qui rit, which you know as the Laughing Cow, the individually wrapped wedges of spreadable cheese from your childhood. Founded in 1921 by a French veteran of the First World War, the company’s name is based on a pun on Wagner’s Valkyries and an anti-German slur.

Because I want to get into the habit of blogging on a regular basis, I thought it would be a fun idea to write a series of articles on one of my favourite topics: HTTP and Webservices. To start, I began writing an article for every HTTP status code. I only realized after I drafted the first few, that the IANA page actually lists 68 official ones.
