This new pure EV platform has been built specifically for the upcoming Tata electric cars, and the new Tata Punch.ev is the first car in the lineup to get the Acti.ev architecture. If you…

Data comes in different shapes and forms. One of those shapes and forms is known as categorical data.This poses a problem because most Machine Learning algorithms use only numerical data as input. However, categorical data is usually not a challenge to deal with, thanks to simple, well-defined functions that transform them into numerical values. If you have taken any data science course, you will be familiar with the one hot encoding strategy for categorical features. This strategy is great when your features have limited…

How to summarize a geolocation table by merging contiguous network IPv4 blocksPhoto by Pascal Bernardon on UnsplashEvery device on the internet is uniquely addressable via an Internet Protocol (IP) address. The global IP address space is overseen by the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA). Traditionally, IANA allocates address space in /8 prefix blocks for IPv4, which are subsequently assigned to Internet Service Providers and other organizations. Various databases exist to map these IP blocks to their respective…

The concentration of atmospheric CO2 is currently at a record high of 419 ppm due to human activities, particularly the burning of fossil fuels. An international team of scientists is examining geological markers to reconstruct Earth’s CO2 history, revealing that today’s levels are the highest in 14 million years. Credit: SciTechDaily.com Carbon dioxide has not been as high as today’s concentrations in 14 million years thanks to fossil fuel emissions now warming the planet.Today atmospheric carbon dioxide is at its…

Sleater-Kinney has released a new single, “Untidy Creature,” along with a music video for the track directed by Nick Pollet. The clip features Australian freediver Amber Bourke, who holds her breath in a bathtub for the duration of the introspective song. On the track, the closing number on the band’s forthcoming 11th album, Little Rope, Corin Tucker sings, “But here’s too much here that’s unspoken/ And there’s no tomorrow in sight/ Could you love me if I was broken/ There’s no going back tonight.”…

Occupying the liminal space between a geological excavation and speculative realism, Emilija Škarnulytė’s hypnotic documentary effortlessly moves between the micro and the macro. Zooming into a 3D-configuration of uranium ore, the film’s opening cuts to X-ray-esque renderings of radioactive household objects, all cast in an eerie shade of sickly green. These abstractions soon give way to something seemingly concrete yet equally mysterious: the camera plunges underwater, bringing us face to face with the remains of a 1950s…

Even 20 years later, I can give you all kinds of reasons why I still think it's one of the greatest holiday…
