New York City has always been a place that people flock to—to live, to work, to visit, or to play. It’s big and exciting, and there’s almost always something happening: a new play, a new exhibit, or a new restaurant opening. According to a 2024 report by venture capital firm SignalFire, NYC experienced a tech…
Engage in active play for at least 30 minutes a day, whether that be with a wand toy, laser (just make sure to reward them after their “hunt”), or whatever toy they like best. (Check out my full guide to my favorite interactive cat toys for even more recommendations.) Same as with dogs, use puzzle…
Under the hood, the system features appropriately high-end specs, including an Intel Core Ultra 9 288V CPU, 32 GB of RAM, a 1-terabyte solid state drive for storage, not to mention graphics courtesy of a mobile Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070 GPU.

Some US tech giants are abandoning their decade-long practice of publishing statistics about the gender and racial makeup of their workforce. Google, which helped pioneer the release of annual diversity, equity, and inclusion reports, has no plans to disclose the information this year, according to four employees familiar with the discussions internally.

Astronomers believe that for a few days the most powerful telescopes will be able to observe it to better understand its composition. However, because of its distance, it will be impossible…

After living in big cities like San Francisco and New York, when I set foot in Wally World in the Midwest, I heard angels sing. Rows and rows of fluorescent lights highlighted any and every product needed for your house in one place. Screw the mom-and-pop bodega—I missed this level of convenience. If by chance…
Sometimes, eating makes me feel like Sisyphus. Every day, I must toil up the mountain and the rock to figure out what the heck I want to eat for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. I tested Factor meals (6/10, WIRED Review) earlier this year, and they’re a solid option if you’re the type of person that…
