Your Future is Your Business by Will Skeeters What’s it About?

THE year is 1933, and China is partly under the control of invading Japanese forces. During construction of a bridge near Harbin in the north-east, a local man working for the Japanese makes a stunning discovery: an ancient human skull. He recognises the skull’s value right away. Determined not to hand the fossil over to the occupiers, he buries it in an abandoned well. There the skull remained until 2018, when, shortly before his death, the man told his family of its existence. In due course, the Harbin skull came into scientific hands. It was worth the wait, not least…
It always happens this time of year: mentally, we’re thinking about fall, but physically, we’re still dressing for the summer heat. Perhaps Emily Ratajkowski’s feeling that same excitement for the season ahead, since her latest look is essentially the perfect transitional outfit. On Thursday, Aug. 17, the model and podcast host stepped out in New York City wearing a dark orange bodysuit with a black micro miniskirt and brown loafers. In theory, the pairing might seem somewhat simple, but in reality, it was anything but. Aside from opting for a fun, Halloween-ready color scheme (pumpkin spice on the brain?), Ratajkowski’s…
Japan’s space agency said it sent a self-destruct order to its Epsilon rocket after a failed launch on Wednesday because of a problem that meant the craft could not safely fly.The unmanned rocket, designed to launch in three stages, was taking several satellites into orbit on its sixth space mission.”The rocket can’t continue a safe flight, because of the danger it would create if it falls on the ground,” a JAXA official said in comments broadcast by TBS television network.”So we took measures to avoid such an incident, and we sent the signal (to destroy the rocket),” he said, adding…

Despite not being a festive series, Marvel’s What If…? Season 2 is getting a holiday release date. When does Marvel’s What If…? Season 2 come out? The Disney+ series will reportedly come out around December 25. THR notes that the series was originally set for an early 2023 release, which was obviously missed, and will now debut “around Christmas day.” The animated series won’t be holiday-themed, though, as it is just how the production schedule lined up. Footage previously shown from the second season included a young Peter Quill with his father, Ego, a giant Iron Man, and the news…
I COME from a family with dodgy knees. My dad, 79, has had two complete knee replacements and my sister needs one at the age of just 54. My left knee hurts when I walk downstairs and clicks when I bend it – classic signs of the age-related disease osteoarthritis, caused by wear and tear on the cartilage cushioning the joint. By the time I get to the knee-replacement stage, however, I might not need to go under the knife. Instead, I hope to be able to swallow a few pills every so often and feel my knee pain disappear.…

The following essay is reprinted with permission from The Conversation, an online publication covering the latest research. Not only people need to stay cool, especially in a summer of record-breaking heat waves. Many machines, including cellphones, data centers, cars and airplanes, become less efficient and degrade more quickly in extreme heat. Machines generate their own heat, too, which can make hot temperatures around them even hotter. We are engineering researchers who study how machines manage heat and ways to effectively recover and reuse heat that is otherwise wasted. There are several ways extreme heat affects machines. No machine is perfectly efficient – all machines face…

The new Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie, Mutant Mayhem has a visual style inspired by the doodles and notebook sketches of teenagers — a perfect way to infuse this movie about teenagers (who happen to be mutant ninja turtles) with authentic adolescent energy. But if you watch closely, you’ll notice that sometimes we see the Turtles’ own dreams or fantasies, which are drawn in an even more sketchy style — which definitely resembles the look of the Turtles in their earliest comic book appearances by Kevin Eastman and Peter Laird.That’s just one of the many Easter eggs and hidden references to Ninja Turtles lore…

Credit: Geophysical Research Letters (2023). DOI: 10.1029/2023GL103953 Warmer temperatures and increasing drought severity associated with climate change are contributing to more frequent and more severe wildfires across North America. While attention to wildfires is commonly focused on California and the western U.S., forested regions of the Upper Midwest, including Minnesota, are maintained through well-documented fire regimes. As these fire regimes shift with climate change, there is limited knowledge of how direct wildfire burns within…

One of your Mac’s built-in malware detection tools may not be working quite as well as you think. At the Defcon hacker conference in Las Vegas, longtime Mac security researcher Patrick Wardle presented findings today about vulnerabilities in Apple’s macOS Background Task Management mechanism, which could be exploited to bypass and, therefore, defeat the company’s recently added monitoring tool.There’s no foolproof method for catching malware on computers with perfect accuracy because, at their core, malicious programs are just software, like your web browser or chat app. It can be difficult to tell the legitimate programs from the transgressors. So operating…

Give Joe Leaphorn credit for finding a way to get justice for his murdered son, J.J. But he didn’t exactly go through proper channels to do so on Dark Winds Season 2 Episode 6.

Climate change threatens sweltering global temperatures, rising seas, catastrophic storms and disappearing wildlife. Many of us worry about the data climate scientists generate—about the future we are leaving to our children. Yet many of these experts are parents themselves. Scientific American asked six climate scientists who have young or school-age children to answer the same question: “What do you tell your children about the future, considering how climate change might impact their generation?” The responses surprised us. There were no fatalistic warnings, no instructions about the need for panic or extreme action. Instead these parent-scientists presented honest, compassionate words of…
