This Women’s History Month, let’s not forget the scope of womanhood. For a long time, the only women whose stories were told were straight, white women — but not anymore! In light of the current wave of transphobia sweeping the nation, I wanted to celebrate the importance and raw beauty of trans women and their voices. For all the struggles that women experience, trans women have it much, much harder. Try being accepted as a woman, never mind a professional in one’s chosen field. In the following memoirs, you’ll experience the hardships of trans women, but also their endurance, their…

Sparks between water droplets may have started life as we know itShutterstock/Perry Correll The first molecules necessary for life on Earth could have been created when tiny flickers of “microlightning” between drops of water sparked the necessary chemical reactions. “This is a new way to think about how the building blocks of life were formed,” says Richard Zare at Stanford University in California. There has been an enduring hole in our knowledge about the origin of life, specifically how simple gases reacted to create organic molecules with carbon and nitrogen bonded together, such as proteins and enzymes, which life as…
The second season of the Apple TV+ smash-hit Severance booted back up again earlier this year, continuing the story of Mark Scout (Adam Scott), a widower who undergoes a drastic procedure to make the grieving process a little easier. When he clocks in at the beginning of his shift at Lumon Industries, he has no recollection of his personal life. All he knows is his workplace, a sentence that becomes deeply frustrating for him, but would potentially be a blessing for other TV characters. The position itself, along with his supervisors — controlling manager, Harmony Cobel (Patricia Arquette), and her lackey-turned-successor,…

Role Model wanted to sing a version of “Nothing New,” the melancholic Taylor Swift Red (Taylor’s Version) vault track that features Phoebe Bridgers, that he could do a little two-step to while screaming out the chorus — adding a dash of drunken coziness to Swift’s ruminating after a night of imbibing in a few too many. And so “Nothing New (Tucker’s Version)” was born, with Role Model debuting his live cover of Swift’s song on Australian radio station Triple J’s “Like a Version” series.

Credit: Pixabay/CC0 Public Domain Tobacco kills 8 million people worldwide every year, but imagine if it could be used to make medicine. The idea isn’t unheard of—tobacco has been used as a herbal medicine in the past. But now, in the age of genetic engineering, tobacco may well be the future of pharmaceutical production on Earth and beyond. European explorers first encountered tobacco in the Americas during the 16th century. There, indigenous people had used it for centuries, either by inhalation, ingestion or topically, as a treatment for any number of illnesses like headaches, colds, sores and stomach upsets. Tobacco…
Critic’s Rating: 3.5 / 5.03.5One thing we can say for sure about the Fire Country writers is that they are an ambitious bunch. How else do you describe them pitting a small fire station against a million-dollar corporation? Whatever the series is plotting, I am all for this recent story development. For once, the drama isn’t a blazing forest fire or a medical emergency that goes from bad to worse. Fire Country is using an age-old tactic that is both a cliche and certified method to corral audience members around the characters. (Sergei Bachlakov/CBS) The writers are bringing in a…

Many AI firms say their models are on the road to artificial general intelligence, but not everyone agreesMANAURE QUINTERO/AFP via Getty Images Tech companies have long claimed that simply expanding their current AI models will lead to artificial general intelligence (AGI), which can match or surpass human capabilities. But as the performance of the most recent models has plateaued, AI researchers doubt that today’s technology will lead to superintelligent systems. In a survey of 475 AI researchers, about 76 per cent of respondents said it was “unlikely” or “very unlikely” that scaling up current approaches will succeed in achieving AGI.…

After a couple of weeks of “will-it-won’t-it” weather, it’s fair to say that a sunny spring is just around the corner, and we’ve already packed away our winter coats in anticipation. We’ve been relying on layers of knitwear to get us through the cold snap since last September, but now ballet flats and sandals are taking over from our knee-high boots, tights are making way for (gasp!) bare legs, but until it’s warm enough to forgo cosy layers all together, we’re steering our focus to seasonal outerwear. With so many jackets on the market at the moment (and you can…

What’s the story behind the story? What inspired you to write Starbreaker: Volume 1? Believe it or not, it was the old Spelljammer series way back in the 80s/90s that started this idea brewing in my mind decades ago! I was simply enthralled by the idea of having a fantasy story that simply takes place on a larger scale than just a single world or plane as traditionally done in fantasy. More than that as well, I wanted magic to be a part of regular everyday life for everyone in the story, having it fit the role of technology as…
Credit: Pixabay/CC0 Public Domain More than 3 billion years ago, Mars intermittently had liquid water on its surface. After the planet lost much of its atmosphere, however, surface water could no longer persist. The fate of Mars’s water—whether it was buried as ice, confined in deep aquifers, incorporated into minerals or dissipated into space—remains an area of ongoing research, one of particular interest to LASP Senior Research Scientist Bruce Jakosky, former principal investigator of the Mars Atmosphere and Volatile EvolutioN (MAVEN) mission. Last week, in a letter to the editor of the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS),…
