I’ve been lucky enough to interview Robin Hood star Connie Nielsen twice now – once during press for said MGM+ show and the other while at her Scandinavian cabin months before Gladiator II hit the big screen – and both times I’ve come away feeling profoundly moved.Nielsen is both a natural fit for playing sophisticated royalty and for stories with direct, important moral messaging. It’s easy to see why she was picked for Eleanor of Aquitaine in Robin Hood: each time she opens her mouth, sage wisdom appears.Now we’re at episode 8, and both Rob (Jack Patten) and Marian (Lauren…

Spiders from Mars? Try Europa. A team of planetary scientists from Ireland have examined and named an intriguing feature on the surface of Jupiter’s icy moon that resembles the shape of an arachnid — or perhaps an exploded asterisk. They’re calling it “Damhán Alla,” which is Gaelic for “spider,” or in a particularly evocative phrasing, “wall demon.” The team’s analysis, published as a study in The Planetary Science Journal, suggest that Damhán Alla, and other features like it, may be the festering wounds formed by torrents of water erupting through Europa’s icy shell. “The significance of our research is really…

Last week’s poll ends with interesting results – the Samsung Galaxy Z TriFold is surprisingly popular. Okay, the plurality of people is turned away by its price, but those people still find the form factor appealing. Add those who are willing to spend as much as necessary to get into the new form factor early plus those who are on the fence and are waiting and the Z TriFold crosses the 50% mark. It’s rare to see a fresh idea in the mobile space get so much support out of the gate – super-slim phones experienced the exact opposite situation.…

When choosing a pair of wireless earbuds, buyers often have to weigh buying from a trusted audio brand versus going with a smartphone brand. Legacy audio companies like Bose and Sony usually offer an edge in sound quality, but phone brands like Apple, Samsung, and Google provide unparalleled software integration with their ecosystem devices. For those who value clever software features and a hint of artificial intelligence, there are no better options on the market than the Google Pixel Buds 2a or the Pixel Buds Pro 2. Both pairs of earbuds support the basics, such as active noise cancellation to…

The Galaxy A37 and A57 are expected to drop next month, and usually, the current models become more affordable. However, according to the latest tip, the company is planning to hike the prices of Galaxy A models in India by around INR 1,000. The Galaxy A56, on the other hand, will see its price go up by INR 2,000. The new prices will go into effect next week as early as Monday. The most probable reason for the price hikes is the cost of memory chips. You’ve probably already seen the memes online. They are all about a shortage in…

Home » Artificial intelligence » Infinite Money Glitch There was a 110 year increase of 1000 times in world electricity from 1915 WW1 levels to today. The Industrial revolution increased the world economy by 100 times and increased electricity from nothing but after the first 25 years of establishing electricity increased it by 1000X. Only about 1% of global electricity is used for AI right now. ~200 TWh. 500 TWh for all data centers. The path is clear to use SpaceX Starship to have 3000-5000 launches per year and the mass production of 1 million satellites to achieve 1000 times…

Viewing PDF files in my browser or with Acrobat Reader is a piece of cake, but editing them is always an issue. I either have to pay for software I’ll hardly use or scour the internet for sketchy PDF converter websites with questionable functionality. That’s why I was excited to come across a free app called PDFgear. It’s an all-in-one PDF viewer, creator, and editor available on multiple platforms so that I can use it on my Windows 11 laptop or Samsung Galaxy phone. I tried this free PDF editor for a week and won’t go back to Adobe after…

Gen AI in software engineering has moved well beyond autocomplete. The emerging frontier is agentic coding: AI systems capable of planning changes, executing them across multiple steps and iterating based on feedback. Yet despite the excitement around “AI agents that code,” most enterprise deployments underperform. The limiting factor is no longer the model. It’s context: The structure, history and intent surrounding the code being changed. In other words, enterprises are now facing a systems design problem: They have not yet engineered the environment these agents operate in.The shift from assistance to agencyThe past year has seen a rapid evolution from…

Two icons of discovery, NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope and NASA’s Curiosity rover, have earned places in TIME’s “Best Inventions Hall of Fame,” which recognizes the 25 groundbreaking inventions of the past quarter century that have had the most global impact, since TIME began its annual Best Inventions list in 2000. The inventions are celebrated in TIME’s December print issue. “NASA does the impossible every day, and it starts with the visionary science that propels humanity farther than ever before,” said Nicky Fox, associate administrator, Science Mission Directorate, NASA Headquarters in Washington. “Congratulations to the teams who made the world’s…
