  • University of Arizona students boo Eric Schmidt’s AI cheerleading during commencement

    Former Google CEO Eric Schmidt delivered the commencement address at the University of Arizona on Friday. And, as his speech veered into talk of AI, he was repeatedly drowned out by boos. AI is already a contentious topic, and it's not surprising that those about to enter a ravaged job market feel particularly negative about […]

  • The Ghost of Columbus and the Impossible Geometry of the Piri Reis Map

    The Ghost of Columbus and the Impossible Geometry of the Piri Reis Map

    In 1929, while renovating the Topkapi Palace in Istanbul, a theologian discovered a fragment of gazelle skin that would rewrite the history of cartography. This was the Piri Reis map, a world chart compiled in 1513 by the Ottoman admiral and cartographer Piri Reis. While the map is famous for its early depiction of the Americas, a new wave of academic research is peeling back layers of mystery that suggest the map is even more "impossible" than previously thought. Using modern cartometric analysis and digital "mosaicking," researchers are finding that the underlying geometry of this 16th-century artifact mirrors a level of survey accuracy that defies the technology of the Ottoman era.The Piri Reis map was not merely a single drawing but a compilation of at least 20 different source maps. Among these, Piri Reis himself claimed to have used eight Ptolemaic maps, four Portuguese charts, and one "lost" map by Christopher Columbus.

  • As AI supply disruptions grip the market, almost two thirds of PC owners have no plans to upgrade

    Parroted as the end-all, be-all of modern living, AI has proved to be more of a nuisance to everyone and, ironically, has hit tech enthusiasts the hardest. Instead of bettering their day-to-day, AI is only helping to surge prices and make them unavailable to the general populace while big-name corporations rake in the surplus and enjoy the shortage.

    And that leaves you, the average Joe, unable to go in and buy new components or bring your machine up to snuff since some corporation out there (cough, OpenAI, cough) said "pretty please" to all the RAM manufacturers, and all of them somehow jumped ship and started only selling to them (who weren't actually buying them, just promising that they would, maybe).

    Now, according to Tom's Hardware, 60 percent of PC owners have no plans to upgrade over the next two years. That is the result of a survey of 1,500 Tom's Hardware readers done over the last couple of weeks, thus reflecting the current state of PC enthusiasm or lack thereof.

    What's even more interesting is just how few people are planning to actually kit out their PC with some shiny new tech within
