Research led by John Antonakis at the University of Lausanne found that targeted training produced a medium improvement in how charismatic people appeared to others—evidence that charisma is not merely something you are born with, but a set of behaviours that can be deliberately strengthened.

Charisma has a reputation problem. We tend to treat it as a private voltage: some people walk into a room with it, others do not, and the rest of us are left admiring or resenting the difference. The research led by John Antonakis at the University of Lausanne points to a less mystical reading. In ... Read more

Are stressed drivers top of mind for EV software makers in Europe?

As more fleets turn to electric vehicles in Europe, it’s worth asking just how drivers are experiencing the transition. The transition from diesel to electric freight transport isn’t simply a matter of switching vehicles; it changes how routes are planned, where drivers stop, how they take breaks, and how they interact with their vehicles throughout ...

iPhone Ultra battery capacity leaks

According to Digital Chat Station on Weibo, one of Apple's usual battery suppliers just had a pair of batteries certified together, which means they are intended for a foldable smartphone (since these have split batteries due to the form factor). The batteries in question have a rated capacity of 1,921 mAh and 2,962 mAh, respectively, giving us a grand total of 4,883 mAh. This is rated capacity, which means the... Read more ›

The Mamdani administration is also proposing a junk-fee rule requiring sellers, landlords, hotels, and other businesses to "advertise the total price for any good or service, including all mandatory additional charges and fees,...

When Niantic dropped the first Pokémon Go trailer in 2015, it was hard to grasp how a bunch of players could work together to catch a pokémon like Mewtwo. But this week at the game's 10th anniversary event in New York City, Pokémon Go showed the world how it's done. Almost 2,000 players (many of […] Read more ›

I use an AI as an external hard drive for my own memory, and the strange part is how much better my thinking got once I stopped asking my brain to store everything

I started using AI as an external memory. Somehow, it made me feel more human — which feels like it should be a bigger contradiction than it is, but here we are. For the last couple of months, my life has felt like pure chaos. Not dramatic chaos, necessarily. Not the kind where one huge ... Read more Read more ›

When someone reaches retirement age without close friends, the easy assumption is that they must have pushed people away. We imagine a cold person, a difficult person, someone too guarded or demanding to build lasting bonds. Psychology suggests another possibility. Some people arrive in later life without close friends because they were never short on ... Read more Read more ›

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. ...

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. It can feel sentimental ... Read more Read more ›

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 ...
