Tapping into your “muscle memory” to tie your shoes or play an instrument may feel automatic — but to execute these learned motions, the brain erupts into a flurry of activity, rapidly “unzipping” and “zipping” all the key information about the movement being performed, a new study suggests.The study, published Feb. 1 in the Journal of Neuroscience (opens in new tab), used a brain scanning technique called functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to collect snapshots of people’s brains as they played simple melodies on a keyboard. fMRI tracks the flow of oxygenated blood through the brain, and because active brain…

James Gunn, Co-CEO of DC Studios and frequent superhero movie director, has posted on Twitter to clear up some misconceptions about the upcoming Superman: Legacy.

This refers to an Instagram story of Gunn’s that said that Creature Commandos and Superman: Legacy were both already in development before he and Peter Safran took the DCU’s reins. The director stated that Superman: Legacy was always its own separate project , rather than a retool of the…
Going Zero by Anthony McCarten What’s it About? Contestants have two hours to hide from a revolutionary new spyware. Only one clever librarian stands a chance of winning.

More than 3 million adults were forced to evacuate their homes in the past year because of a natural disaster, according to a new Census Bureau tally that marks a rare federal effort to assess the uprooting caused by hurricanes, floods and other events. The Census Bureau estimate far exceeds other counts of U.S. evacuees and reflects the uncertainty about how much disruption disasters and climate change are causing. Census figures show that 3.4 million adults were displaced in 2022, or 1.4 percent of the U.S. adult population. By contrast, the Internal Displacement Monitoring Centre, which tracks people who are…
Diesel Fall 2023 front row.. Photography by Getty Images Including the six Indigenous Canadian designers who presented their collections. By Annika Lautens Date February 27, 2023 Is fashion’s obsession with creating viral moments over? Given drag artist Alexi Stone’s buzzed-about impersonation of Jennifer Coolidge at the Diesel show, perhaps not yet. But, if Milan Fashion Week as a whole is any indication, the tide is turning. Much like New York Fashion Week, the most successful Italian collections showed restrained creativity: It wasn’t about making an elaborate ice cream sundae but instead focusing on certain beautiful flavours and letting them stand…
There are several potential avenues for protecting influencers that would, in turn, help all of us confronting constant commercialism and misinformation in our feeds. Prioritizing fair pay and transparency in the industry would help incentivize influencers to share better quality products and information. But to even begin, government agencies, lawmakers, and company leadership must understand that shrugging off the influencer industry as a “Wild West”—a term used repeatedly—serves only to obscure its problems and allow them to perpetuate. The industry’s “lawlessness,” at this point, is a choice—one that can be changed. Legislative attention must be paid to major platform companies’ lack…

My hometown of Los Angeles is home to the earliest reported earthquake dating back to 1769 (and, of course, many more since then). The largest recorded earthquake in the world occurred in Chile in May of 1960 measuring at a magnitude of 9.5 moment magnitudes. A single earthquake can cause destruction costing hundreds of millions of dollars to repair and, far more importantly, can end in fatalities. In 2009, scientists in Italy were convicted of manslaughter for failing to predict the L’Aquila earthquake that killed more than 300 people. But how successful can we expect our quake predictions to be? In the United States, the scientific experts on all…

Never have we been more envious of an inanimate object than when Pedro Pascal stepped out in a sparkly cardigan this week. As soon as we saw him walking the streets of London wearing the glittery knit, we longed to swap places with it — to be enrobing the heartthrob, catching the attention of random passersby, sparking internet discourse, and ultimately taking responsibility for his style breakout. Pascal has been serving look after look while promoting “The Last of Us” season one and “The Mandalorian” season three this year, working with stylists Julie Ragolia and Fabio Immediato. His latest came…

The Fitbit Inspire 3 and Charge 5 are the brand’s more basic bands, sitting below the more smartwatch-like Versa 4 and Sense 2. However, these are some of the easiest products to recommend in the entire line-up, especially since Fitbit has recently cut back some of the features of its pricier fitness trackers. The Inspire 3 is the cheaper of the two, but lacks a few important health and fitness features. For regular runners, the Charge 5 is the better bet. However, the Inspire 3 really taps into what Fitbit does best at the moment — the lighter and more casual…

The United States government is notorious for taking a “better late than never” approach to its tech rollouts. Following that tradition, US Customs and Border Protection (CBP) confirmed today that after 16 years it has finally performed the necessary software upgrades to verify the cryptographic signatures stored in passport RFID chips. Since 2006, the United States and many other countries have embedded these little chips in the back panel of their passports, or “e-Passports” as they’re known. The chip digitally stores the personally identifying information of the document’s owner, including name, date of birth, passport number, and biometric data like your…

Skinamarink has been one of the surprise success stories of early 2023. The indie horror film was made on an almost literal shoestring; it was reportedly shot for just $15,000.

It’s 2023, and while fat representation has come a long way since Shallow Hal, it’s still a media minefield. If you’re looking for fat-positive or body-neutral reads, check out the YA books with fat protagonists I’ve picked out for you below. Millennials remember the serious dearth of fat representation in children’s media back in the 1980s, ’90s, and ’00s. Mean Girls taught us that fat was the worst thing a girl could be. Stephen King and that one Scottish author depicted their fat characters as disgusting and unintelligent, worthy of ridicule, shame, and mockery. On the big screen, we saw…
