The Intellectual Obesity Crisis

We evolved to crave sugar because it was a scarce source of energy.
But when we learned to produce it on an industrial scale, suddenly our
love for sweet things became a liability. The same is now true of
data. In an age of information overabundance, our curiosity, which
once focused us, now distracts us. And it’s led to an epidemic of
intellectual obesity that’s clogging our minds with malignant junk.

The analogy of information as sugar is not just rhetoric. A 2019 study
by researchers at Berkeley found that information acts on the
brain’s dopamine-producing reward system in the same way as food.
Put simply, the brain treats information as a reward in itself; it
doesn't matter whether the info is accurate or useful, the brain will
still crave it and feel satisfied after consuming it (at least until
it starts craving more).

I became newly worried about the state of democracy when, a few years
ago, my mother was elected president of her neighborhood garden club.

Her election wasn’t my worry – far from it. At the time, I was
trying to resolve a conflict on a large email group I had created.
Someone, inevitably, was being a jerk on the internet. I had the power
to remove them, but did I have the right? I realized that the garden
club had in its bylaws something I had never seen in nearly all the
online communities I had been part of: basic procedures to hold people
with power accountable to everyone else.

Prenatal supplements fall woefully short in providing crucial

If there’s one thing doctors agree on, it’s that all of their
pregnant patients should take prenatal supplements. As a result, about
3 in 4 expecting mothers follow their doctor’s advice.

But even though they’re crucial for the health of mother and baby
alike, prenatal supplements are completely unregulated. There are no
rules that require these supplements to contain any nutrients at all,
let alone the appropriate doses.

When people are online, anonymity and physical detachment embolden
them to behave in biased ways, previous work has shown. As professors
who study business analytics, information systems, operations
management and information technology, we wanted to better understand
how gender bias works in online environments. So we conducted a
seven-month experiment with an online platform that offers
health-related products and services.

The firm, which is based in South Korea and requested its identity not
be disclosed, sells weight-management products designed to be consumed
over several weeks. It also provides customized dietary advice for
users based on age, weight, height, lifestyle and other
characteristics, and offers one-on-one consulting services to answer
clients’ questions.

Mexico has reached a political milestone. According to a quick count
by the country’s electoral commission, Mexican voters have just
elected their first female president. In a society that has long
treated its women unfavourably, it is a seismic shift.

However, the country’s president-elect, Claudia Sheinbaum, inherits
a very challenging responsibility. The second-best performing economy
in Latin America risks being overwhelmed by cartel criminality, the
growing threat of narco-politics, and surging violence against women.

Patents based on traditional knowledge are often 'biopiracy'. A new
international treaty will finally combat this

Last week, at a conference in Geneva, the member states of the World
Intellectual Property Organisation agreed on a new treaty aimed at
preventing the for-profit piracy of traditional knowledge.

So-called “biopiracy”, in which companies lift ideas from
traditional knowledge and patent them, is a significant problem. In
one case a US company patented derivatives of the neem tree as
pesticides, when the plant’s properties were already well known to
local communities in India. There have also been attempts to patent
traditionally cultivated plant varieties, such as basmati rice and
jasmine rice.

Human culture is changing too fast for evolution to catch up - here's

[[link removed]}&lead=419599&emailid=10169&nl=daily]
Research is showing that many of our contemporary problems, such as
the rising prevalence of mental health issues, are emerging from rapid
technological advancement and modernisation. A theory that can help
explain why we respond poorly to modern conditions, despite the
choices, safety and other benefits they bring, is evolutionary
mismatch.

Mismatch happens when an evolved adaptation, either physical or
psychological, becomes misaligned with the environment. Take moths and
some species of nocturnal flies, for example. Because they have to
navigate in the dark, they evolved to use the moon for direction. But
due to the invention of artificial lighting, many moths and flies are
drawn to street lamps and indoor lights instead.

Election 2024: will Sunak and Starmer facing off in televised debates

The first televised debate of the 2024 general election will take
place on Tuesday, June 4, putting Rishi Sunak and Keir Starmer head to
head on ITV. ITV has also announced they will hold a multiparty debate
later in June. The BBC will host at least two multiparty debates, as
well as the last Sunak-Starmer face-off before polling day.

If voters are hoping to hear party leaders respond spontaneously and
authentically to questions, they’re likely to be disappointed. For
those who tune in (6.7 million in 2019, down from 10.3 million in
2010), it is not necessarily because they expect to learn anything new
about the candidates or their policies. Rather, they are likely
intrigued by the spectacle of adversarial conflict.

Companies seeking to meet ambitious sustainability goals to reduce
fossil fuel consumption and reduce waste must go beyond a shift to
renewable energy. Roughly half of global emissions are linked to the
production and consumption of goods such as food, packaging,

that we rethink the materials and services sourced from suppliers, the

Endings are hard, especially when your last episode wasn’t planned.
Star Trek: The Original Series was ingloriously canceled after three
seasons, despite valiant fan efforts to keep it on the air. That means
its finale wasn’t written as a finale, and it generally ranks among
the worst entries in the entire franchise.

On June 3, 1969, the last episode of Star Trek, “Turnabout
Intruder,” aired. Originally slated for March 28, NBC delayed the
episode after the passing of Dwight D. Eisenhower. Loyal fans had to
wait for one last episode, several months after the previous episode
had aired, in a countdown to a letdown. Fifty-five years later,
“Turnabout Intruder” isn’t secretly great; its basic premise is
embarrassing and outdated. But despite its deep flaws, the world of
sci-fi fandom would be much, much darker without it. Here’s how
“Turnabout Intruder” accidentally ushered in a new age of fandom.

Like many maiden voyages, Sea of Thieves’ launch in 2018 was fraught
with peril. Performance issues, a dreadful solo experience, and an
underwhelming gameplay loop disappointed fans and critics hoping for
something revolutionary. This was Rare after all, the studio behind
legendary titles like GoldenEye 64, Donkey Kong Country and
Banjo-Kazooie. Fan expectations were understandably lofty, especially
with a pedigree like that.

It was also hyped as a marquee exclusive for Microsoft’s new Xbox
Game Pass, something to entice gamers who were hesitant to commit to

It's been 12 years since Disney acquired Lucasfilm. At the time, that
deal was met with excitement from Star Wars fans who believed that
they were witnessing the start of a promising new era for the
franchise.

In the years since its takeover, though, several of Disney's Star Wars
titles have received divisive responses from fans (some of which have
been more warranted than others), and almost all of them have been
directly tied to the either series' Original or Prequel trilogies.
Even The Mandalorian, which felt like the most original Star Wars
effort Disney had produced when it premiered, has since been reduced
to little more than a bridge between its franchise's live-action and
animated properties.

On the Icelandic archipelago of Vestmannaeyjar, teens Birta and Selma
take part in a local tradition that dates back to the introduction of
electricity to the region in the early 20th century. Scanning their
town’s streets, the pair identify young puffins who’ve mistaken
artificial light for the moonlight, and lead them to the safety of the
ocean. Directed by the UK filmmaker Jessica Bishopp, this poignant
coming-of-age documentary captures Birta and Selma at a pivotal moment
of adolescence as they navigate their own uncertain futures.
Traversing misty moors from dusk until dawn, the girls grapple with
their own sense of belonging on the island and ponder what their
futures hold. Set against the rugged beauty of Iceland’s coastline,
Puffling meditates on the precarious nature of home for young puffins
and people alike on this small, idiosyncratic slice of earth.

At the end of April, just outside of Toronto, a police pursuit of a
robbery suspect ended in a fatal vehicle collision. Four people were
killed, including two grandparents and their infant grandchild, as
well as the person being pursued by the police.

The Special Investigations Unit (SIU) of Ontario, a police oversight
agency, has launched an investigation into the police conduct to
determine if criminal charges are warranted.
