Negotiations between Google DeepMind and its London-based employees over the possibility of unionization stumbled this week, after initial talks left union representatives feeling they had wasted their time, WIRED has learned. In May, DeepMind employees asked Google to recognize the Communication Workers Union and Unite the Union as joint representatives. The company later denied that…
In addition to those recommended ISPs, nine more providers earned very good Overall Satisfaction Scores. Like our recommended ISPs, most of these are regional providers. For instance, Allo Fiber, which operates in 50 cities throughout Arizona, Colorado, Missouri, and Nebraska, earned top marks for service, speed, reliability, and technical support.

You can add another name to the thousands of employees leaving NASA as the Trump administration primes the space agency for a 25 percent budget cut. On Monday, NASA announced that Makenzie Lystrup will leave her post as director of the Goddard Space Flight Center on Friday, August 1. Lystrup has held the top job…
The Insta360 X4 is a great deal at this price. Even at full price, it’s our favorite budget 360 camera thanks to great 1/2-inch sensors, which can capture up to 8K video. The dynamic range is very good compared to everything but the newer Insta360 X5, which is better. The other major thing you give…

After a 10-day journey to the far side of the moon, the astronauts of the Artemis II mission are returning to Earth. But in the words of NASA administrator Jared Isaacman, the mission is not over until everyone arrives home safely. The reentry of the Orion capsule matters as much as the lunar journey itself:…
I’m torn on the price of the Movestyle, though. I love how affordable it is at $580, putting it within a more mainstream budget than I would have assumed. On the other hand, this is a very unique product, and I think higher-end specs might have been a better choice. This is a VA panel…
While the air temperature between fillings varied by up to 12° F, the fuel in our underground tank stayed at a steady 62° F. As a result, we found that after the first few gallons were pumped, the fuel temperature coming out of the nozzle varied very little between morning and afternoon. At both morning…
