Pebble just announced the Index 01, a smart ring for recording thoughts. It's a little ring with a built-in microphone and that's about it. The Index 01 is almost anti-tech in its simplicity. There's no needless AI component shoehorned in, aside from speech-to-text. It's a ring with a microphone that you whisper ideas into and I want one. Here's how it works. You get an idea while walking down the... Read more ›

Spotify is finally letting the United States join its music video party. Music Videos have started rolling out in beta today to Premium users across the US and Canada, offering not only official artist videos but also new formats like live performances and covers. Music Videos first arrived last year in 11 countries, but the United States wasn't one of them. The reason for that was simple — Spotify simply... Read more ›

An anonymous reader quotes a report from the Guardian: The journal Regulatory Toxicology and Pharmacology has formally retracted a sweeping scientific paper published in 2000 that became a key defense for Monsanto's claim that Roundup herbicide and its active ingredient glyphosate don't cause cancer. Martin van den Berg, the journal's editor in chief, said in a note accompanying the retraction that he had taken the step because of "serious ethical... Read more ›

When someone asks me for gadget buying advice, I normally tell them to stick with their current device. In 2025, most new tech products aren't a worthwhile upgrade over even something that was released a few years ago — and with the price of everything going up, that new iPhone can wait. But things aren't normal right now. On December 3, The Wall Street Journal reported memory manufacturer Micron would... Read more ›

Microsoft Excel, the 40-year-old spreadsheet application that helped establish personal computers as essential workplace tools and contributed to Microsoft's current valuation of nearly $4 trillion, has weathered both the rise of cloud computing and the current AI boom largely unscathed. In its most recent quarter, commercial revenue for Microsoft 365 -- the bundle including Excel, Word, and PowerPoint -- increased 17% year over year, and consumer revenue rose 28%. The... Read more ›

It’s the end of another year, so it’s time for the Engadget staff to compile a list of the year’s biggest losers. We scour over articles from the previous 12 months to determine the people, companies, products and trends that made our lives worse over the course of the year. Some selections may be so pervasive they actually make our list of biggest winners. But, for the most part, we’re... Read more ›

If you spend enough time around genuinely successful people—not the loud ones on social media, but the ones who quietly build real, lasting success—you start to notice a pattern: They all have an unusual relationship with self-control. Not the rigid, punishing version we associate with perfectionism. I’m talking about the grounded, calm kind of self-control—the ... Read more Read more ›

I still remember the text from my college buddy Mark: “Dude, this is the third time you’ve bailed. Let me know when you actually have time for your friends.” That stung. But he was right. During my first startup years, I’d become the king of saying yes. Yes to every networking event. Yes to every ... Read more Read more ›

If you had met me in my early twenties, you would have met someone who believed discipline was something you were either born with or you weren’t. I genuinely thought successful people had some rare inner circuitry the rest of us didn’t. They woke up early because it was “natural” for them. They stayed consistent ... Read more Read more ›

The tech elite says it’s defending Western values. Then it tells you exactly what those values are. I owned Palantir stock. Past tense. This isn’t a confession designed to make me look virtuous. I bought it for the reason most people buy growth stocks: it was going up. The company had a $10 billion military ... Read more Read more ›

The class that insists it’s “comfortable but not rich” while sending their kids to schools that cost more than the median income. Nobody thinks they’re upper middle class. I’ve noticed this pattern since I started writing about class. People earning $300,000 call themselves middle class. People living in million-dollar homes describe their situation as “comfortable.” ... Read more Read more ›

I used to think something was wrong with me. Friday nights, my phone would buzz with invitations. Group dinners. Rooftop parties. After-work drinks that always stretched into midnight. And while everyone around me seemed energized by the prospect, I’d find myself hoping they’d cancel. It took me years to realize this wasn’t a defect. It ... Read more Read more ›

We’re constantly told to hustle harder, grind longer, and outwork everyone else. But then Bill Gates drops this line: ““I choose a lazy person to do a hard job. Because a lazy person will find an easy way to do it.” Wait, what? It sounds counterintuitive. Maybe even wrong. But after running two startups and ... Read more Read more ›

I spent most of my thirties trying to make everyone happy. When I left corporate to start my own consultancy, I thought the freedom would be exhilarating. But instead, I found myself saying yes to every client request, nodding along with bad ideas, and bending my recommendations to avoid conflict. Running that solo business forced ...

One of the funny things about wealth is that the people who genuinely have it rarely feel the need to show it. After running a business for years, meeting founders, investors, families with old money, and self-made entrepreneurs, I’ve noticed something interesting: the wealthiest people I know never look like what movies or Instagram say ...
