Iâve been apartment hunting since April. The original plan, which Iâm mildly embarrassed to admit out loud, was to have a place secured by my 27th birthday â as though the rental market, an entity with roughly the emotional warmth of a spreadsheet, was going to respect a deadline I invented purely for narrative satisfaction. ...

The unsettling part of the classic cold-water experiment is that those two versions of an experience do not always agree. In the study, published in Psychological Science in 1993 by Daniel Kahneman, Barbara Fredrickson, Charles ... Read more Read more âș

Researchers tracked 105 people six times a day for a week. About two-thirds of what they did was triggered by habit, and nearly nine in ten actions were carried out on autopilot.

In late 1971, Ray Tomlinson wheeled his chair between two PDP-10 mainframes at BBN in Cambridge and sent the first message between computers on ARPANET, choosing the @ symbol because no one's name would ever contain it. Read more âș

Long marriages ask something almost no one warns you about: the quiet grief of watching your partner slowly become someone only you remember the earlier version of. The couples who survive it don't refuse to notice the change â they metabolise it out loud. Read more âș

A 2019 PLOS ONE study of 40 men in Nova Scotia found that the diversity of bacteria in the colon correlated with total sleep time and sleep efficiency â opening a line of research that now argues afternoon fatigue may be less about the pillow than the plate. Read more âș

Thereâs a particular worry I keep running into from people in their forties and fifties who are on their own. Not the loud one about dying alone, or the leftover static from dating apps. A smaller worry, underneath all of it: the sense that everyone coupled up has been doing emotional homework for years, over ... Read more Read more âș

Cymothoa exigua is a parasitic isopod that enters a fish through the gills, drinks the blood out of its tongue until the tongue withers away, and then attaches to the stub and spends the rest of its life acting as a functional replacement tongue â the only known case in biology of a parasite replacing a host organ.

In five days in April 1967, a 25-year-old history teacher in Palo Alto turned a classroom question about Nazi Germany into a movement of 200 students â using nothing more than posture rules, a salute, and the pleasure of being told what to do. Read more âș

The prevailing story about AI in a disaster zone is that it belongs to governments and large NGOs: satellite imagery pipelines at FEMA, damage models at the World Bank, logistics dashboards at the UN. When twin earthquakes reportedly ripped through northern Venezuela last month, that story broke. Read more âș

In 1998, a Tufts psychologist named Raymond Nickerson published a long review article pulling together decades of scattered experiments under one heading. The title called confirmation bias a ubiquitous phenomenon in many guises. What he described was a habit most of us would recognise if we caught ourselves doing it, which is exactly the problem: ...
