It is the first time cooperation from a prediction platform has produced insider trading charges in the United States.

We tend to picture learning as something for the young, but a study of 416 Canadians over sixty found that those who kept taking courses reported greater well-being — the staying with it, not the subject, seemed to matter most

I caught myself thinking something the other day that I’m not proud of. A friend mentioned that an older relative of his had just signed up for a class, and my first reaction, the one I had the sense not to say out loud, was a quiet “what’s the point at that age?” It’s an ... Read more Read more

The Murchison meteorite that fell on an Australian town in 1969 contains grains of stardust 7 billion years old, meaning the dust predates the Sun itself and is the oldest solid material ever held in a human hand

In 1969, a fireball broke over the Victorian town of Murchison and scattered carbon-rich stones across the paddocks. Inside them sat grains of silicon carbide that condensed in dying stars roughly 7 billion years ago — older than the Sun, older than the Earth, and the most ancient solid material ever held in a human hand.

A Roman shipwreck found off the Greek island of Antikythera in 1901 held a corroded bronze device with dozens of interlocking gears, and X-ray scans later revealed it was an analogue computer built around 100 BC to predict eclipses and the positions of planets.

Sponge divers found a corroded bronze lump in a Roman shipwreck off Antikythera in 1901. X-ray scans revealed at least 30 interlocking gears built around 100 BC to predict eclipses and planetary positions — a mechanical computer 1,400 years ahead of anything comparable. Read more

In 1962, NASA’s Mariner 1 Venus probe veered off course 293 seconds after launch and had to be destroyed mid-flight, because a single missing overbar in the guidance equations turned a smoothing instruction into a command to chase a phantom signal

On July 22, 1962, Mariner 1 became the first American interplanetary probe — and the first to be destroyed in flight. The cause was a single missing overbar in a handwritten guidance equation, which turned a smoothing instruction into a command to chase radar noise. Read more

Harvard psychologists tracked 2,250 people through their days and found that nearly half their waking hours were spent thinking about something other than what they were doing — and that wandering away from the present moment was a stronger predictor of unhappiness than any activity they were engaged in

A 2010 Harvard study used an iPhone app to sample 2,250 people in the moment. Minds wandered 46.9 per cent of the time, and where attention went predicted momentary happiness better than the activity itself. A careful read of what the study shows, and what it does not. Read more
