As the Mobile World Conference begins in Spain, Lenovo brought a new attachable accessory for their laptops — an AI agent. CNET reports:
The little circular module perches on the top of your Lenovo laptop display, attached via the magnetic Magic Bay on the rear. The module is home to an adorable animated companion called Tiko, who you can interact with via text or voice... [I]t can start and stop your music, open a web page for you or answer a question. You can also interact with it by using emoji. Give it.

Как один уличный роутер вытащил деревню из цифровой тьмы. Вторая часть Хабровского балета

В первой части я рассказывал, как уличный NR‑712 вытащил нашу деревню из «цифрового болота» и дал в дом нормальный интернет, а не мучения на 3 Мбит/с. Во второй части хочу показать кухню: какое железо реально работает в поле, как я подсветил Wi‑Fi на полдеревни и чем это всё обернулось людям — от школоты до стариков. Читать далее Read more

Про проверку гипотез в статистике написан уже миллион статей, и, боюсь, это даже не преувеличение. Зачем писать миллион первую? И чем она будет отличаться от привычных увещеваний вычислять p-value и сравнивать его с 0.05?

Two-Week Social Media 'Detox' Erases a Decade Age-Related Decline, Study Finds

Critics say social media is engineered to be as addictive as tobacco or gambling, writes the Washington Post — while adding that "the science has been moving in parallel with the court's recognition." A growing body of research links heavy social media use not only to declines in mental health but to measurable cognitive effects — on attention, memory and focus — that in some studies resemble accelerated aging.

The people who grew up in houses where money was tight but the table was always set properly, the shoes always clean, and guests always fed before family — they didn’t learn class from wealth, they inherited it from someone who refused to let scarcity become an excuse

They taught us that dignity was the one thing no one could repossess, showing us how to set a proper table with mismatched plates and feed unexpected guests even when our own stomachs growled, because true class was never about what you had in your wallet but what you refused to surrender from your spirit.

The NLRB said in its ruling that Amazon "has engaged in unfair labor practices" by... Read more

No, AMD Is Not Buying Intel

"The April 1st timing should have been your first clue," writes Gadget Review. TechSpot's false story was just an April Fool's prank — although Gadget Review thinks it's still funny how "something about this particular piece of satire felt uncomfortably plausible." Maybe it's because AMD stock sits around $196 while Intel hovers near $41, or perhaps it's the poetic justice of the underdog finally eating the giant. The semiconductor world... Read more

America's CIA Recruited Iran's Nuclear Scientists - By Threatening To Kill Them

A former U.S. spy spoke to The New Yorker about "years of clandestine work for the C.I.A. — which, he said, had 'prevented Iran from getting a nuke'." [Kevin] Chalker told me that, as he understood it, the Pentagon had suggested running commando operations to kill key Iranian scientists, as Israel subsequently did. But the C.I.A. proposed recruiting those scientists to defect, as U.S. spies had once courted Soviet physicists.... Read more

Microsoft Pulls Then Re-Issues Windows 11 Preview Update.  Also Begins Force-Updating Windows 11

TechRepublic adds that the update "was to bring 'production-ready improvements' and generally ensure system stability by optimizing different Windows services."

Ubuntu 14.04 LTS (Trusty Tahr) set the floor at 1GB — a modest ask when it launched more than a decade ago in 2014. Then came the Ubuntu 18.04 LTS (Bionic Beaver) that pushed the number to 4GB,...
