To reap the benefits of digital technologies, we must contend with their addictive designs.
Sludge may be inevitable, but there are better ways to manage such frictions in our daily lives.

“I watched closely for the sun or stars to appear, to correct my chronometer, on the accuracy of which our lives and the success of the journey would depend.”
Before we formed stars, atoms, elements, or even got rid of our antimatter, the Big Bang made neutrinos. And we finally found them.
The very word “quantum” makes people’s imaginations run wild. But chances are you’ve fallen for at least one of these myths.
When we are more focused on the good things we enjoy in life, we have more to live for.
“Lac-Phe” grants obese mice the benefits of exercise — without exercising. But don’t expect an “exercise pill.”

Seattle slowly raised its minimum wage to $15 per hour. The results provide fuel for both sides of the minimum wage debate.
The second law of thermodynamics tells us that entropy always increases. But that doesn’t mean it was zero at the start of the Big Bang.
Survivorship bias occurs when we fail to consider how data was collected. To combat this, search for the “silent evidence.”
Instead of giving the 239 suffering families and the public a true story, Netflix exploited a horrifying tragedy to push conspiracy theories.
This graph shows how badly German cities were hit by Allied bombing raids.
If there are three neutrino species, all with different masses, then how is energy conserved when they oscillate from one flavor to another?
