A federal judge on Monday declined to immediately curb the federal operation that has put armed agents on the streets of Minneapolis and St. Paul, but ordered the government to file a new briefing by Wednesday evening answering a central claim in the case: that the surge is being used to punish Minnesota and force…
Michael Calore: Yeah. Katie Drummond: We need to do more reporting on this. I think that the compensation of people in Silicon Valley is fascinating. Lauren Goode: Well, if anyone would like to weigh in, if you’re a recruiter, if you’re a person who’s been made one of these offers from the Meta superintelligence lab,…
In theory, this is where you’d want to use one of those sticky-backed lint rollers that operate very much like a fat spool of masking tape, with precut segments. Remove its reusable cover, roll over the surface of whatever you’re trying to de-lint, remove that spent sheet, then continue. However, there are other, reusable designs…
When Edward Warchocki speaks with you, he sounds like a regular guy. “Not super intelligent, but very emotional, very easy to make friends with,” says Bartosz Idzik, the person who created him.

Researchers from the Leonardo da Vinci DNA Project (LDVP) report that by analyzing the drawing of Holy Child and other Renaissance artifacts, such as letters written by a da Vinci relative, they have recovered some Y chromosome DNA sequences that appear to belong to a genetic group of people with common ancestors in Tuscany, where…
The big limitation with Chromebook software is in downloading applications from the web. With Chromebooks, you just can’t. So that means you can’t download more advanced software like video editing, photo editing, or industry-specific applications. The only apps you can download are the Android apps you’ll find in the Google Play Store. This can be…
The stabilizers are PCB-mounted, which is preferable to the typical plate-mounted units that many keyboards use, and are lubricated from the factory. The lube on these stabilizers, while a bit excessive (there were small clumps of lube visible on the outside housings, which is not typical), feels great.
