I noticed last winter that I have been answering ‘how are you’ with ‘busy’ for twenty years, and busy was just the word I used so nobody would ask the actual question I wasn’t ready to answer about whether any of this still felt like mine

The word 'busy' is a piece of social technology that performs as an answer while being an evasion. After two decades of using it, you may discover the script has eaten the question underneath.

AVX-512 support is reportedly returning with Intel's next-gen Nova Lake CPUs — Latest Linux kernel patches reveal P-cores and E-cores will gain native 512-bit execution

It looks like Intel is adding back AVX-512 support to its client CPUs starting from the upcoming Nova Lake desktop lineup. Previously, we expected to see AVX-256 debut on a consumer family, allowing E-cores to execute 256-bit code, but now it seems that even the E-cores will gain native 512-bit registers. Read more â€ș

We assume AI is coming for everyone’s job, but a 2025 Stanford study tracking payroll data found the damage is concentrated by age: employment for 22-to-25-year-olds in the most AI-exposed roles fell roughly 13%, while older workers in the very same jobs were barely touched

Ask most people what AI is going to do to work, and you get a version of the same answer: it’s coming for everyone, and your age won’t shield you. It’s a tidy fear, and it sounds fair. But  payroll data tells a different and more uncomfortable story — the early strain isn’t spread evenly, ... Read more Read more â€ș

A wealthy Italian town spent 2024 cracking down on unapproved air conditioners while its mayor defended the rules as necessary to protect the view — and neighbors reporting neighbors became its own small scandal

Portofino is a village of fewer than 500 permanent residents on the Ligurian coast, roughly an hour southeast of Genoa. It is also, by most measures, one of the most recognisable places in Europe — a tight crescent of coral and ochre buildings around a harbour so precisely composed that it appears, to visitors arriving ...

A new study modeling six of history’s deadliest heatwaves found that conditions had already crossed the threshold for human survival, and every single one of those events stayed below the wet bulb temperature long treated as the line between danger and death

For roughly two decades, a single number has anchored scientific and policy discussions about the upper limits of human heat tolerance: 35 degrees Celsius on the wet-bulb thermometer. Above this threshold, the theory holds, the body’s primary cooling mechanism — the evaporation of sweat from the skin — becomes physically incapable of removing heat fast ... Read more Read more â€ș

The prompt I typed was short. “Based on everything you know about me, describe my personality. Be detailed.

People who keep one chair in the house that nobody else is allowed to sit in aren’t being territorial, they’re protecting the one square metre of the world where nothing is currently being asked of them

The chair that nobody else sits in is rarely about ownership. It's about engineering one location in the house where the nervous system is allowed to stand down — and why that single square metre often does more psychological work than any conversation about boundaries ever could. Read more â€ș
