The DaVinci IQC is a weed vape that does everything right

I’ve long been a fan of DaVinci’s marijuana vapes: they’re lovingly crafted, constructed with premium materials, and deliver a fantastic smoking experience.

And, in this DaVinci IQC review, we’re going to find out exactly why that is. First though, let’s talk about DaVinci.... Read more

It’s not just political ads that are made to divide us

Five years since the Brexit vote and three since the Cambridge Analytica scandal, we’re now familiar with the role that targeted political advertising can play in fomenting polarisation. It was revealed in 2018 that Cambridge Analytica had used data harvested from 87 million Facebook profiles, without users’ consent, to help Donald Trump’s 2016 election campaign target key voters with online adverts. In the years since, we’ve learned how these kinds... Read more

China is cracking down hard on Big Tech — here’s why

Over the past few weeks, the Chinese government’s crackdown on Big Tech companies has intensified. The giants have all felt the brunt of heightened regulatory scrutiny. At the end of last year, Ant Group (which owns the payment platform AliPay) failed to go public on the stock market. Chinese regulators cited a lack of compliance with new fintech regulations, which were abruptly introduced a week after founder Jack Ma publicly... Read more

Twitter will now let you limit replies to a tweet after you’ve posted it

It’s an annoying feeling that when you post a tweet and realize that you forgot to turn on reply filters. Currently, you either have to delete the tweet, or let reply guys and trolls have a field day. Twitter is fixing that behavior now by introducing an update to reply limitations: you can turn them on after tweeting. The company made this announcement through its safety account last night.

Facebook validates armchair experts with a shiny badge

We’ve all been ‘that person’ online at some point. You know, the one who chimes in with an essay-long comment on something we’re passionate about works — or correcting someone’s egregious mistakes (or maybe that’s just me). The problem is, no matter how knowledgeable you might think you are, there’s little to differentiate your opinion from those of anyone else’s online. Fret no more, for you can now officially be...

The Fiido X is a premium upgrade to one of my favorite folding ebikes

The Fiido D11 is one of my favorite folding ebikes I’ve tested, offering sensible range and performance with a unique, attractive design. But at its entry-level $999 price point, what the bike was missing was some polish: the welds looked a little sloppy, the cables were a bit messy, and the pedaling offered basic cadence-based assistance as opposed to a fancier torque sensor. Enter the Fiido X. Launching on Indiegogo... Read more

5 reasons why living in space is way harder than solving climate change

You can hardly blame Richard Branson, Jeff Bezos, Elon Musk, and all their rich buddies for ditching planet Earth to have a hot billionaire summer in space. After all, even rich people were stuck inside for a year while the COVID-19 pandemic raged its way around the globe. Who among us couldn’t use an out-of-this-world vacation? But it can be difficult not to feel a little salty over the fact... Read more

Jeff Bezos gets the OK for his mid-life crisis trip to space: Here’s how to watch it

One small step for a billionaire, one giant leap for outrageously wealthy space tourists: Jeff Bezos has got the OK for his onanistic flight to space. Bezo’s rocket company, Blue Origin, has got the rubber stamp from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to take humans to space — and the Amazon founder has bagged a seat on the first trip. The magnate’s mission is, of course, all about helping humanity... Read more

Surprise, surprise: Dunking on your enemies boosts social media engagement

A new study has further exposed the effect of polarizing content on social media engagement. Researchers from the universities of Cambridge and New York found that tweets and Facebook posts about opposing political parties are far more likely to be shared than content containing emotional language. Up front: Social media platforms have long been accused of algorithmically promoting divisive content, because it’s more likely to go viral and thereby attract... Read more

Don’t rely too much on social media to understand human behavior

Since the early days of social media, there has been a lot of excitement about how data traces left behind by users can be exploited for the study of human behavior. Nowadays, researchers who were once restricted to surveys or experiments in laboratory settings have access to huge amounts of “real-world” data from social media. The research opportunities enabled by social media data are undeniable. However, researchers often analyze this... Read more
