I’m already growing hoarse in Golden Gate Park as Charli XCX takes the stage at a San Francisco music festival. The crowd starts jumping as a guitar hook hits, and I reluctantly comply, bouncing around on these aging knees as my chunky Puff necklace almost flies off the chain. During a lull in the set,…
“We thought that’s probably the one that’s least likely to pop up,” Geisbert says. “We guessed wrong.” Concerned by that knowledge gap, in 2011 he decided to modify a vaccine, which led to the crab-eating macaque study.

It’s awful parenting, naturally, but the lesson…
Today, Apple announced its new budget MacBook. At $599, it looks seriously impressive. While I haven’t tested its performance, battery life, or display just yet, it may end up being hard to beat at that price based on some of the specs alone.
