MIT physicists generate the first snapshots of fermion pairs
When your laptop or smartphone heats up, it’s due to energy that’s lost in translation. The same goes for power lines that transmit electricity between cities.

All this jostling generates friction, and, ulti...

My phone is making me sick and I'm not alone
It all began one day when I was playing Fortnite with my wife and my son. I was using a Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4(opens in new tab) with my favorite mobile controller(opens in new tab) — the GameSir X2 — and I noticed my eyes ached after playing for an hour or so.

The cutting edge of technology in 2023 is artificial intelligence, with the (sometimes creepy) ChatGPT nearing an “iPhone moment” as a revolutionary tool that is being adopted at record speed. But it could just be a sideshow to the real story: China’s emergence as the world’s tech superpower.

Groupon, which has lost 99.4% of its value since its IPO, names a new CEO... based in Czech Republic
A dozen years ago, Groupon shot to fame popularizing the online group buying format, confidently rejecting a $6 billion acquisition offer from Google and instead going public with a $17.8 billion market cap. The company today says it has 14 million active users, but almost consistently for the last decade, its financial position has been in a slow decline — with stagnation in its core business model, little success in efforts to diversify, declining revenues and ongoing losses.
