It’s tough for new characters to become popular late in a TV series, but it can work. The introduction of the ‘mother’ on How I Met Your Mother finally paid off after eight seasons of build-up. Other shows have also successfully introduced memorable characters near the end, like Todd Alquist in Breaking Bad and Boon in Justified.
New research shows that smaller artificial intelligence models, enhanced with reasoning abilities, can match the performance of much larger systems in identifying critical risks to children.
Andy Austin decided to try living a week in Night City, but not as the player character, V. Instead, he wanted to experience the city as a typical resident – someone with a modest apartment and a normal job at a restaurant.
Critics, those ever-delightful buzzkills, claimed the platform’s “isolated risk” was about as isolated as a drunk at a wedding-meaning, not at all. Worse yet, whispers of rehypothecation (fancy word for “playing hot potato with collateral”) threatened to turn Solana into a financial domino rally. 💥
And what exactly is Dogecoin? Well, it’s a dog-themed cryptocurrency (obviously). More specifically, it’s the world’s first “dog coin” to be taken somewhat seriously. The logo? A Shiba Inu, that cute little Japanese dog breed who became an online meme sensation. (Because why wouldn’t you choose a meme-worthy dog to represent your multi-billion dollar cryptocurrency, right?)
As of this writing, Worldcoin [WLD] is hanging out at $0.58, which is basically the equivalent of finding a penny on the sidewalk-exciting for a second, then you realize it’s just a penny. 🪙 It’s up 1.0% on the day, but let’s be honest, it’s been on a downward spiral, dropping 7.2% weekly. Yikes. 😬
A new study explores how well traditional machine learning techniques can identify sarcastic comments on Reddit, focusing solely on the text of replies.
Not much else is known right now, but the official account for Geoff Keighley’s event posted a cryptic message on X (formerly Twitter) – “the lion awakens” – with a date of December 11th.
The cryptic movement of Dogecoin reveals a circus of opposing forces. Technical indicators – those fickle divinations – scream decline, yet the coin flirts around 0.14 with a whopping volume of over a billion dollars daily. Truly, a spectacle of hope and despair intertwined like tangled earbuds in a pocket.
Okay, so I just read up on Dungeons of Dusk, and it’s looking awesome! They’re planning a demo for Steam Next Fest in February 2026, which I’m already marking on my calendar. But get this – they’re including a level editor and Steam Workshop support, so we’ll be able to make and share our own levels! The latest Steam blog post dives into all the details about how development is going, what the game will probably cost (around $16.99), why New Blood teamed up with 68k Studios, and a ton of other cool stuff. Oh, and good news for us mobile gamers – it’s still confirmed to be coming to mobile too!
