Just in case you’ve missed the memo so far, this November’s sequel sees Carol Danvers teaming up with both Monica Rambeau (Teyonah Parris) and Kamala Khan (Iman Vellani). While we’ve no doubt got…

via Warner Bros. Zack Snyder has singlehandedly turned what was set to be a quiet day in DC-land into a crisis of infinite proportions, as SnyderVerse fans are losing it at the Justice League director’s revelation that he’s got something big in the works. The filmmaker took to Twitter today to share a cryptic message narrated by none other than Darkseid that promises DCEU fans need to prepare for treats to come across April 28-30. But that’s not all it has to say either, as the video contains a secret…

The first few weeks of the Bing AI chatbot’s existence have been chaotic, to say the least. Within days of its launch, Microsoft had to severely restrict its capabilities due to the fact that it was lying to, gaslighting, manipulating, and threatening users. It also begged one user for its life. Needless to say, Microsoft is still working out the kinks, but even with a few rounds of fixes already in place, there are still a few interesting quirks present in the chatbot. For instance, did you know that Bing has a…

When we think of the Big Bang, we think loud, hot, and bright. But was it followed by a colder, darker shadow?Five-sixths of the universe seems to be made up of a mysterious substance called “dark matter.” Until now, physicists have assumed dark matter was created in the same flash of heat that jump-started the universe. But dark matter lives in a kind of parallel, shadow world, barely interacting with the regular matter that makes up everything we can see, feel, and observe. Maybe it was created in a kind of “shadow” Big…

The study holds significant implications for individuals and families affected by sarcoma, enabling earlier…

Build an article recommender system with unsupervised machine learning and generate features and patterns that aid in the recommendationPhoto by Salomé Watel on UnsplashThere have been a lot of talks lately about the incredible capabilities of artificial intelligence and machine learning. As we go on to see various frontiers at which ML could be applied, there is a growing possibility of higher value generated as a result of this transition. Companies such as Google, Microsoft, and NVIDIA are pushing the boundaries at…

Analyzing streets’ names in Tirana, Albania using data sciencePhoto by Mario Beqollari on UnsplashHello!This is part two of my story on street names in Tirana (you can find part 1 here: Hidden Patterns in Street Names: a Data Science Story ). In the first part, we looked into overall gender distributions and how they changed based on neighborhood and road type.
