Weâre constantly hearing thereâs a lack of EV charging infrastructure â especially if we are going to meet the demand for all-electric vehicles in the next few decades. But what if the problem isnât just the number of EV chargers, but their location?

Google Playâs new billing payment system policy starts today. This change forces developers to use the companyâs own payment system for in-app purchases.

I have a problem. Not a big one, mind, but one all the same: I dislike the default formatting on Google Docs. âExcuse me?â I hear you scream. âDo you really care enough about fonts and line spacing and text size on a simple word processor to write a whole damn article about it?â And the answer to that, dear reader, is a resounding yes. I use Google Docs constantly.... Read more âș

My favorite thing about the internet is that everybody can find like-minded people. No matter how niche your hobby, or how obscure your kink, thereâs a community out there for you. The logical consequence of that is that shit on the web gets real weird, real fast. Iâm not judging â it is, in fact, my second favorite thing about the internet. The hub of a lot of the internetâs... Read more âș

By: Todd Feathers Driven to cyberspace by the pandemic, courts across the country purchased chatroom-like tools designed to help people resolve disagreements without the need for a full-on lawsuit, judge, or hearing. Online dispute resolution, as itâs known, had already been growing in popularity as a means to make often costly, slow-moving court processes more efficient. The tools, pioneered by eBay and PayPal, were designed to settle millions of disputes... Read more âș

While Iâm convinced 2011 will ultimately go down in history as the year the groundbreaking motion picture âCowboys & Aliensâ was released, it bears mentioning that it was also the year in which the first commercial quantum computer officially went online. You can dispute whether Daniel Craigâs turn as an alien-fighting gold thief with amnesia is worthy of such high praise, but thereâs no debating that D-Waveâs a bonafide pioneer... Read more âș

The question I am always asked when I mention anything related to solar energy is this: why isnât the technology as ubiquitous as the sun? So today I am excited to share the news that solar-power transport company Sono Motors is deploying its tech on a bus for the first time â in partnership with the MĂŒnchner Verkehrsgesellschaft (Munich Transport Company, MVG). You probably know Sono Motors from its work...

Imagine youâre talking to someone and they have a big green piece of something they ate for lunch in their teeth. Do you tell them? Whether you do might depend on who they are (you might be more likely to tell your best friend than a work colleague) and perhaps your own personality too. Thereâs no doubt many of us avoid giving feedback. It can feel awkward to tell somebody... Read more âș

Last night, Apple took a massive tiny step toward allowing developers to include links to their sites in the apps â but this is just for âreaderâ apps. This isnât a surprise, though. The firm announced this change last year to close the Japan Fair Trade Commissionâs (JFTC) investigation that looked into the antimonopoly practices of Apple. The Cupertino-based company considers any app that provides digital content a reader app.... Read more âș

This article was originally published on Built In by Jamie De Langhe. History, art, English, the humanities: These are the backgrounds of approximately half the people Iâve worked with at both Etsy and Slack. My co-workers have been creators, analytical thinkers and researchers. They look at complex problems and find novel solutions, taking products to a whole new level.

The financial sector has not been seen as synonymous with any sort of institutional change â in fact, itâs largely been the opposite. Hidden behind heavy bank vaults, the opaque world of finance has remained relatively unchanged for the past couple hundred years, gate kept by a select few at the very top, and largely immune to an increasingly demanding and tech-savvy customer base. But thatâs all changing now thanks... Read more âș

WhatsApp voice notes are useful when you want to send some explanation or rant about a bad date to a friend, and youâre too tired to type all of that.

I was recently reading comments on a post related to COVID-19, and saw a reply I would classify as misinformation, bordering on conspiracy. I couldnât help but ask the commenter for evidence. Their response came with some web links and âdo your own researchâ. I then asked about their research methodology, which turned out to be searching for specific terms on Google. As an academic, I was intrigued. Academic research... Read more âș
