The Vatican just published a 200-page document about AI that doesn’t mention David Sacks once, and that’s precisely what makes it the sharpest critique of Silicon Valley power this year

The Vatican's recent encyclical, Magnifica Humanitas , arrives wrapped in the language of artificial intelligence, but its actual subject is the political economy of technological dominance.

As Criterion rebrands on its 30th anniversary, are its beloved racing franchises like Burnout falling away in the rearview mirror?

Criterion, a legendary UK development studio, is going through something of a re-brand. Its legacy is built upon a foundation of classics, Burnout Paradise and Star Wars: Battlefront to name but a few. However these days, it now finds itself one of many Battlefield Studios, a collective of separate studios all collaborating on EA's premier military shooter. Read more Read more

Over The Top: WW1 (2026) — разбор уникальной MMO про Первую мировую

Тематика Первой мировой войны не слишком часто находит отражение в современной игровой индустрии, особенно, если речь идет о шутерах. На ум приходят разве что Battlefield 1 и серия MMO-шутеров от студии BlackMill Games: Verdun, Tannenberg, Isonzo и пока еще не вышедшая Gallipoli.Однако в марте 2026 года состоялся релиз Over The Top: WW1 — многопользовательской стрелялки, которая вместо навыков стрельбы и скорости реакции геймеров-одиночек на первое место ставит командные усилия, умение...

Deals: Nothing Phone (4b) goes on pre-order, Galaxy A57 and Realme 16 Pro+ stand in its way

Nothing unveiled the Nothing Phone (4b) earlier this week – this is the first (b) series phone, but it’s a mid-ranger not unlike the (a) series models. In fact, the (4a) is the better phone. The Nothing Phone (4b) has a 6.77” 1080p+ OLED display, a Snapdragon 6 Gen 4 chipset and a 5,200mAh battery with 33W charging (for Europe, India is getting a version with a larger 6,000mAh battery)....

Онигири: путь рисового колобка от японской древности до наших супермаркетов

Наши обыденные представления о традиционной японской кухне несколько отличаются от реальности. Суши — блюдо со сложной биографией, которое в знакомой нам форме сформировалось не в Японии, а в среде японских эмигрантов на западном побережье США. Рамен принесли в Страну восходящего солнца уже китайские иммигранты. Да и в виде лапши быстрого приготовления, которая многими японцами считается главным национальным изобретением XX столетия, её придумал выходец с Тайваня. Тэмпура — результат знакомства с...

We tend to think using AI well is a technical skill, but the evidence from early adopters suggests it is almost entirely a clarity skill — the people getting extraordinary results are simply unusually clear about what outcome they are actually after

We tend to treat being good at AI as a technical skill, something to do with clever prompts, the right settings and a stock of secret phrases. Watch the people who actually get extraordinary results from these tools, though, and a different pattern shows up. They are rarely the most technical. They are the clearest. ... Read more Read more

Where the internet physically lives is being redrawn, and what’s pulling it isn’t engineers — it’s electricity.

The truth about 10,000 steps a day: the number wasn’t science, it was the brand name of a pedometer a Japanese company launched around the 1964 Tokyo Olympics — and later research finds real health benefits from as few as 4,000 steps

The daily step goal on hundreds of millions of wrists and phones did not come out of a laboratory. It came out of a marketing department. In the mid-1960s, riding the fitness buzz around the 1964 Tokyo Olympics, the Japanese clock and instrument company Yamasa released a step counter called the Manpo-kei. The name means, ...

Carl Jung split a human life down the middle and gave each half a different job. The first half, he said, is spent building something the world can see: a role, a reputation, a face that fits.

Psychology says people who feel emotionally lighter within minutes of arriving at the ocean aren’t imagining it — studies show that simply looking at water can lower blood pressure and slow the heart rate in less than two minutes, before a single wave has been heard.

There is a particular feeling that arrives before the holiday has properly started. You step out of the car near the ocean, or reach the end of a street where the water suddenly opens in front of you, and your body seems to loosen before your mind has built an explanation.

In 2010, a Brigham Young University psychologist named Julianne Holt-Lunstad analyzed 148 separate studies of 300,000 people to compare the mortality risks of various lifestyle factors — and found that chronic loneliness increases a person’s risk of dying early by the same amount as smoking 15 cigarettes a day

In July 2010, three American psychology researchers — Julianne Holt-Lunstad and Timothy B. Smith of the Brigham Young University Department of Psychology in Provo, Utah, and J. Bradley Layton of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill Department of Epidemiology — published in the open-access journal PLoS Medicine the substantial 21-page meta-analytic paper “Social ...

In 1979, a Harvard psychologist named Ellen Langer took eight men in their late 70s to a retreat house redecorated exactly like 1959 — old magazines, radio broadcasts, and furniture — and asked them to live as their younger selves for a week, and by the end their eyesight, hearing, memory, and grip strength had measurably improved

In September 1979, at an old converted Catholic monastery in the wooded countryside of Peterborough, New Hampshire — approximately 90 kilometres northwest of Boston, and approximately six months before Ellen Jane Langer would become, in the specific spring of 1981, the first female professor to receive tenure in the history of the Harvard University Department ...

Psychology says the people who read everything on social media but never post anything are not the shy ones or the antisocial ones — they are usually the most careful observers in the room, and they have learned that watching quietly gives them information about other people that speaking would immediately take away

The population of people who use social media without posting is much larger than most active posters realise. The Pew Research Center’s 2019 study “Sizing Up Twitter Users,” based on a nationally representative sample of U.S. adult Twitter users, found that the median user posts just twice a month, while the most prolific 10 percent ...
