Frogs can be hard to detect, and they are not, of course, the only species that eludes more traditional, boots-on-the-ground detection. Thomsen began work on another organism that notoriously confounds measurement: fish. Counting fish is sometimes said to vaguely resemble counting trees — except they’re free-roaming, in dark places, and fish counters are doing their tally while blindfolded.

Ford was one of the first automakers in the United States to announce it would start to use Tesla’s NACS (North American Charging Standard) connector in its future electric vehicles, something that almost all of the other North American automakers have since agreed to do as well.However, that switch to the NACS connector won’t happen until 2025. That’s when Ford and most of the rest are expected to start releasing vehicles to customers with the adapter built in. In the meantime, Ford’s EVs still feature the…

When TechCrunch first covered gift registry platform Thankful Registry eleven years ago, its philosophy was turning the act of asking for gifts into a mindful process, instead of a greedy grab for stuff. Fast forward more than a decade, Thankful continues to lean into that mindset with its relaunch. In addition to a redesign, Thankful also has new features like the ability to send cash with more transfer apps. When Amazon removed the ability to add items from other sites to its Wishlists and registries in 2023, it…

I think most of you will agree that most people are not patient. For example, when we find some piece of clothing online that we really like, we want to buy it right now and have it right now. We don’t like waiting, especially when we’re waiting for something that we know we’re sure to get soon.
