(Most of these videos have dialogue. Unmute the videos to hear what’s said.) 1 of 10 Is this conference presentation real or A.I.? Oops, not quite. This was…

Mark Chen, the chief research officer at OpenAI, sent a forceful memo to staff on Saturday, promising to go head-to-head with the social giant in the war for top research talent. This memo, which was sent to OpenAI employees in Slack and obtained by WIRED, came days after Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg successfully recruited four senior researchers from the company to join Meta’s superintelligence lab.“I feel a visceral feeling right now, as if someone has broken into our home and stolen something,” Chen wrote. “Please trust that we haven’t been sitting idly by.”Chen promised that he was working with Sam…

By Lars van Wageningen, Research & Consultancy Manager May 2025 was marked by significant volatility in global oil markets, with Brent crude prices flirting with multi-year lows, forward curves flattening into contango, and trade flow disruptions affecting key hubs.

For tank terminal operators, this environment demands strategic recalibration toward future storage plays, flexible infrastructure, and adaptive commercial models. 1. Price Weakness and Forward Curve Flattening Brent crude hovered between $62.13 and $64.53/bbl throughout May, pressured by ongoing geopolitical uncertainty, OPEC+ supply…

Other MagSafe Power Banks to ConsiderPhotograph: Simon HillWe like a few other MagSafe power banks that didn’t make it into our top picks.Sharge Icemag for $34: I am usually a sucker for Sharge’s translucent cyberpunk aesthetic, and the Icemag has RGB lighting and a tiny fan inside! It charges iPhones at 7.5 watts and offers 20-watt wired charging with an ample 10,000-mAh capacity. But it is relatively bulky, and the fan emits a high-pitched whine. You will only hear it if you are somewhere quiet, and while it keeps the power bank cool, my iPhone 14 Pro still gets very…

As May turned to June, the ARA barge freight market held its footing in a week that reflected both resilience and inertia. Amid moderate volumes, rates remained largely unchanged or declined slightly, particularly for middle distillates. However, behind the calm veneer, terminal delays, operational bottlenecks, and cautious forward planning continued to weigh heavily on fresh market engagement. 1. Freight Rates Drift with Minimal Adjustments Across the reporting period, most freight rates remained flat or exhibited minor declines, depending on route and product: Cross Harbor rates were among the few to experience light day-on-day erosion—from approximately €5.03/ton on May 30 to…

The included keyboard rest is optional to install, though the whole thing is designed to work together. It’s a little annoying. I wish you could roll the tray into the riser to hide it, which would go a long way in making the FlexFit look a little more elegant, and could also help with storage. You also can’t adjust the height of the tray, so while I didn’t have issues typing on a keyboard, I found my wrist cramping up a little when using my Apple Magic Trackpad because it was a little too low. This may or may not…
