An unofficial website calling itself UK Visa Portal has exposed the passports and selfie photos of visa applicants, and the security flaw remains unpatched, according to TechCrunch , which reported the breach on 26 May.

Psychologist Carl Rogers suggested the good life is not a state you arrive at but a direction you keep choosing, not a fixed self to defend, but a process of becoming, whether you cling to who you have been or keep opening to who you are becoming

I have caught myself, more than once, defending a version of me that had already moved on. Something in the way I described what I do, or what I care about, or what I am no longer willing to try, would be a year or two out of date the moment I said it out ... Read more Read more

We assume tech clusters form around talent, but the AI boom is increasingly chasing cheap power — how Northern Virginia, Iowa and Ireland became data-centre capitals

Where the internet physically lives is being redrawn, and what’s pulling it isn’t engineers — it’s electricity. Across the industry, the biggest new data-centre campuses are chosen first for access to cheap, plentiful power. The old draw of a nearby talent pool now comes a distant second.

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. The second half is spent deciding what to do with all of it. Do you keep playing the ... Read more Read more

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 ...
