The intense rivalry among the three tech giants has showered Chinese consumers with dirt-cheap indulgences - bubble tea and lattes for as little as 1 Chinese yuan, or $0.14, and meals dropped at their door in under 30 minutes. It's not just food. As growth in China's traditional e-commerce slows, companies are racing into the new fast-delivery segment. "It can be flowers, it can be medications, it can be toiletries," Jason Yu, the managing director for Greater China at consumer insights company Kantar Worldpanel, told Business Insider.

Mirror lifeforms contain DNA structures that are the mirror image to all known organisms. In all life on Earth, the DNA double helix is right-handed, meaning its strands, a sugar-phosphate backbone, twist to the right. (If you make a thumbs-up with your right hand, the vertical axis would be aligned with your thumb, while your fingers represent the curl of the spiral.) The opposite is the case for proteins, the building blocks of cells, which are left-handed.

The companies that spent the last decade promising to disrupt banks are now building their foundational systems. Coinbase, once the crypto outsider pitching digital assets as banking's alternative, is powering J.P. Morgan's deposit token experiments. SoFi is routing remittances through Bitcoin's Lightning Network while acting as a regulated bank holding company. Even pure-play digital banks like Chime have shifted focus from pure customer acquisition to deepening existing relationships through credit products and early-pay services.

"A study of how three popular artificial intelligence chatbots respond to queries about suicide found that they generally avoid answering questions that pose the highest risk to the user, such as for specific how-to guidance. The study in the medical journal Psychiatric Services, published Tuesday by the American Psychiatric Association, found a need for "further refinement" in OpenAI's ChatGPT, Google's Gemini, and Anthropic's Claude. But they are inconsistent in their replies to less extreme prompts that could still harm people."

Speaking from his macabre curiosities shop in Essex in a recent YouTube interview, Scragg wears a shabby bowler hat, has tribal-style face tattoos and a ginger beard that descends into three pendulous dreadlocks. The shop, Curiosities from the 5th Corner, provides a backdrop that could be plucked straight from a Victorian penny dreadful: a foetus of conjoined twins floats in a large medical jar at Scragg's elbow, shelves of human skulls and a hybrid animal skeleton loom behind.

New York has always had a magnetic pull - from Broadway to bodegas, it's a place where innovation and culture collide. Now, with the legalization of adult-use cannabis, the state is poised to become a global weed tourism destination. But this transformation isn't happening overnight. It's complex, exciting, and full of contradictions. As travelers grow more curious about cannabis experiences beyond California and Colorado, New York's blend of urban energy, cultural depth, and diverse consumer base gives it a unique edge.

New York's legal weed market in 2025 is no longer just about access-it's about choice, intention, and identity. What began as a slow rollout marred by regulatory confusion and legacy gray-market inertia is now a fully-fledged economic engine reshaping how consumers think about, purchase, and consume weed. With over 100 licensed dispensaries now open across the state, data shows a clear shift: buyers are no longer simply looking for high THC or the best price-

Between July 24 and August 8, Pornhub experienced a 47 percent reduction in UK traffic, translating to a loss of over a million visitors due to new age verification rules.

Advancements are being driven by profit motives rather than a vision for public good.

George McGee, a Tesla driver involved in a fatal accident, expressed regret for trusting the Autopilot technology, stating, 'I trusted the technology too much. I believed that if the car saw something in front of it, it would provide a warning and apply the brakes.' His admission emphasizes the potential risks associated with over-relying on autonomous driving features.

Regulation was acting like a boot on the neck of business, choking off enterprise and innovation. Cutting red tape would have a ripple effect on the whole economy.
