It’s easy to see the influences—Wednesday is equal parts Chilling Adventures of Sabrina, Riverdale, and Smallville (no surprise, given it’s created by the latter’s Alfred Gough and Miles Millar)—but it’s all elevated by Jenna Ortega’s brilliantly macabre and deliciously deadpan performance as Wednesday herself, not to mention the visual sensibilities of director Tim Burton. With a phenomenal supporting cast, including Catharine Zeta-Jones and Luis Guzmán as Morticia and Gomez Addams; Fred Armisen as deranged Uncle Fester; Gwendoline Christie as Nevermore’s Principal Weems; and the cinematic Wednesday Addams, Christina Ricci, as a botany teacher, this latter-day Addams Family spinoff is a post-Halloween treat.Cyberpunk: EdgerunnersWhile…

The 22-track album will debut on March 10. “The brief for the score from the team was that they wanted the audience to ‘feel’ the score rather than ‘hear’ the score,” Nainita explains. “Not to push the story but to enhance the feeling that was already there; to never overdramatize the story but for the experience to be almost documentary-like in places”. Take a listen to the track, titled “Face-Off,” below! Starring Bodyguard and Line of Duty star Keeley Hawes, this three-part…

IT SOUNDS too good to be true: a medical test that can detect diseases you may develop decades from now. Suitably forewarned, you can take immediate steps to reduce your risk. This is the promise of polygenic tests, so named because they involve sequencing multiple parts of someone’s DNA. They are being developed for a growing number of diseases, and advocates claim that they could revolutionise medicine by helping people avoid everything from type 1 diabetes to heart attacks and cancer. “If we can shift the focus to prevention, we could get a fundamentally different approach to healthcare,” says John…

In the public imagination, venture capitalists are often seen as independent wealthy actors seeding early-stage companies with their personal money. But the vast majority of VC capital is from “LPs”—or limited partners—including public pensions, university endowments, hospitals, and wealthy families. In other words, venture capitalists manage large sums of other people’s money. This makes them de facto gatekeepers of innovation, deciding what gets built and who benefits. When this system works, we end up with world-changing companies and technologies. When it fails, as in the case of Silicon Valley Bank, we risk setting ourselves up for stagnation and decline.Historically, society…

You can’t always get what you want. It seems like Ted Lasso is about to learn that.The new trailer for Season 3 of the hit Apple TV+ streaming service contains almost no dialogue at all — and instead features scenes set to the Rolling Stones classic “You Can’t Always Get What You Want.” It’s been a little while since we’ve seen Ted (Jason Sudeikis) and the crew from AFC Richmond, so it might be a bit jarring to watch the trailer and see, for example, that Ted’s old pal Nate (Nick Mohammed) has fully gone to the Dark Side (he’s even…

Only a few fossil fragments of Mamenchisaurus sinocanadorum have so far been found, such as this lower jaw. Credit: Paul Barrett A sauropod from China may have had the longest neck of any known dinosaur. The discovery was made three decades after the species was first uncovered as scientists try to understand more about how sauropods evolved in what is now eastern Asia. Around 160 million years ago, towards the later part of the Jurassic Period, a peculiar type of dinosaur roamed the landscape of China. Sauropods are well-known for their long necks, but Mamenchisaurus sinocanadorum towered above the landscape…

There, he works to understand and improve the nation’s capacity to prepare for, respond to, and recover from disasters. Although the events themselves are extraordinarily traumatic and disruptive, Schlegelmilch finds the field of inquiry around disasters fascinating. Rather than viewing disaster preparedness as a single discipline, he likens this intersection of social sciences, engineering, and the built environment to a musical symphony (although not always harmonious). While functioning as an academic institution, the center’s original research, trainings, and education…

What does freedom mean to you? In the anime world, it’s what many a protagonist strives for. It’s the ultimate goal, the true way to live life, the path to do anything your heart desires. And then there’s Attack on Titan, which despite its very fictional approach, displays the setbacks and trappings of freedom, being “special,” and humanity at large. It also shows that freedom doesn’t mean what a lot of people think it does. In the United States, everyone yearns for freedom. Why shouldn’t they? America’s slogan of “give me liberty or give me death” may as well be…
