  1. This week, I gave my first 10/10 score for Hades II, a fantastic game I can’t stop thinking about. It’s ******* and better, but not overwhelming , a needle that’s difficult to thread in game sequels. It takes everything I loved about the original, from its fluid combat to its unique world-building, and greatly expands it, resulting in one of the best games of the year and one of the best roguelikes… Source View the full article at [Hidden Content]

  7. Health Canada says there is “no conclusive evidence” that using Tylenol as directed during pregnancy can cause autism or other neurodevelopmental disorders in newborns.

  8. Across the world, ancient civilizations raised monuments of bewildering scale and precision. Pyramids, ziggurats, megaliths, earthen mounds and vast stone circles — these structures required staggering effort to build, yet endured long after the societies that built them faded. Archaeologists have long labeled them tombs, temples, or ritual centers, and they may be those. But what if they were… Source View the full article at [Hidden Content]

But most models today only consider a few specific types of data or variables. Compare that with human scientists who work in a collaborative environment and consider experimental results, the broader scientific literature, imaging and structural analysis… Source View the full article at [Hidden Content]
  11. If the White House thought its threat to fire federal workers during a government shutdown would spark a Democratic retreat, so far, it’s not happening. Instead, multiple congressional Democrats brushed off the prospect of mass layoffs — floated in an Office of Management and Budget memo first reported by POLITICO — as a negotiating tactic and vowed not to bend as a midnight Sept.

  12. The Israeli military says its air force has carried out its “most powerful strike” in Yemen in response to the Houthi movement’s repeated drone and missile attacks on Israel.

  13. A remarkable million-year-old skull discovered in China has shattered long-held beliefs about human evolution, suggesting that modern humans and their closest relatives diverged from common ancestors at least half a million years earlier than previously thought. The discovery challenges the fundamental narrative of human origins and raises the tantalizing possibility that ***** sapiens may have… Source View the full article at [Hidden Content]

  15. Canadians are likely saving a few loonies if they’ve gone to fill their gas tanks in the past few days, and prices at the pumps may continue to drop a little more. Analysts say these recent drops are the result of a combination of seasonal factors, the rise in oil production worldwide leading to larger stockpiles, as well as the removal of the ********* consumer carbon price in April.

  19. Exoplanets aren’t the only objects floating around other stars—they likely have comets and asteroids as well. Even some of the exoplanets themselves will have “exomoons,” at least according to our current understanding of the physics of planetary formation. However, we have yet to find any of these other objects conclusively, though there has been some hint at the presence of exomoons in the last… Source View the full article at [Hidden Content]
