Buckle-up! Jeep promises fully-electric versions of all its SUVs

Jeep’s current eco-friendly vehicles are plug-in hybrids, but the American brand is now ready to take the next step towards electrification. On Thursday, during Stellantis’ EV Day 2021, the automaker pledged to offer a “zero-emission, fully-electric” 4xe model in every single segment of its SUV lineup by 2025. By the same year, Jeep also expects that electric vehicles will make up 70% of the total sales.  Unfortunately, the company didn’t... Read more

Turning my startup’s office into an art gallery was a weirdly good business move

I came into the office completely drained after a difficult meeting. But when I looked up I stopped awestruck: someone had hung a painting on the wall. Suddenly the boring hallway had been turned into a room with personality and mood. My business partner had decided to hang up an abstract painting by modern Ukrainian artist Anton Popernyak he owned. The painting undeniably brightened up the space, but its real... Read more

Think Einstein hated quantum physics? Go back to school, fool!

I have been popularizing quantum physics, my area of research, for many years now. The general public finds the topic fascinating and covers of books and magazines often draw on its mystery. A number of misconceptions have arisen in this area of physics and my purpose here is to look at the facts to debunk seven of these myths. Don’t worry, you don’t need to know much about quantum physics... Read more

Toxic online disagreements are largely due to social media design

Good-faith disagreements are a normal part of society and building strong relationships. Yet it’s difficult to engage in good-faith disagreements on the internet, and people reach less common ground online compared with face-to-face disagreements. There’s no shortage of research about the psychology of arguing online, from text versus voice to how anyone can become a troll and advice about how to argue well. But there’s another factor that’s often overlooked:... Read more

This manual for a popular facial recognition tool shows just how much the software tracks people

In 2019, the Santa Fe Independent School District in Texas ran a weeklong pilot program with the facial recognition firm AnyVision in its school hallways.

Qualcomm just announced its own $1,500 phone — but who’s it for?

Qualcomm is a very well-known name when it comes to producing processors (like the one in your phone) and modems. So it feels bizarre to write that the company is now releasing a phone — and it’ll cost a whopping $1,500. The phone has no official name and is just called a Smartphone for Snapdragon Insiders. The marketing team clearly wasn’t bothered about it. Qualcomm said that it built the... Read more

Review: Casio’s CT-S1 is a remarkably good beginner (or secondary) piano for $200

I’ve been a Casio fan for a while. Though the company has occasionally been the butt of bad jokes from musicians who seemingly have a problem with affordable instruments, Casio has long offered sensibly designed products that tend to be more accessible than much of the competition. The Casiotone CT-S1 feels like the epitome of Casio’s design philosophy. The company says it’s the spiritual successor to the original Casiotone CT-201... Read more

Vilo’s mesh Wi-Fi router is dirt cheap ($20) and stupidly simple

Routers are pretty boring to write about, but every once in a while I’ll make an exception, as is the case with the new Vilo mesh Wi-Fi system. Why? Because it’s dirt cheap and stupidly simple to set up — and I mean that in the best way possible. Each access point costs $20 bucks ($28 with shipping), and each individual unit is rated for coverage up to 1,500 square... Read more
