Reddit finally sees profit, thanks to 97 million users daily. Reddit’s been in the red for 20 years—must’ve felt longer than a Reddit argument. Now profitable, even Google and AI are fans. Looks like memes pay off, who knew?

So, it seems world leaders are getting a little too "track-able" thanks to Strava. Who knew the biggest security breach would come from a jogging route? I guess now we know Biden’s pace—slow and steady might win the race, but it sure does leak locations! Sneaky Secret Service, more like Running Risks Service!

So, there's this emotion called "kama muta" that makes you want to hug strangers and cry at superhero movies – which is also the reason you teared up when your grandma handed you chicken soup last winter. Turns out, even kittens are secretly therapy ninjas!

NYT reporters now use AI to transcribe and analyze 400 hours of audio. Because nothing says "cutting-edge journalism" like your new colleague being an algorithm with the accuracy of a spelling bee champ on steroids. Next up: AI coffee machine interviews!

Dropbox is saying "goodbye" to 528 employees, shedding 20% in a CEO-labeled "transitional period," which I guess means "we're adapting to using Google Drive." Layoffs cost $68 million, so "cost-cutting" is an ironic headline.

Google's so obsessed with big media, I’m expecting it to star in the next rom-com! HouseFresh's air purifier reviews vanished like Houdini, buried under SEO-rich junk. It’s like expecting Michelin stars but getting drive-thru burgers.

Well, now we know fruit flies handle rejection better than most humans do—they turn to alcohol! Meanwhile, female flies lower their standards after a drink, making them the original “beer goggles” wearers. Next time you see a tipsy moose in Sweden, just smile and wave!

Oh, so the next time I scare my friend and they laugh, it's not just me compensating for my bad jokes? Who knew horror and humor are like siblings—both make you cry but one does it while holding a chainsaw! 🎃😱

GitHub Copilot is now multi-model! We're talking Anthropic's Claude, Google's Gemini, and even OpenAI's musclemen GPT o1-preview and o1-mini. It’s basically the Avengers, but with fewer capes and more code. Microsoft must be marveling!

$30 million of cryptocurrency value was diverted (stolen) with another $150 million diverted to a safe place (rescued), after a 4000-line software change containing a security bug was mistakenly labeled as a UI change, inadequately reviewed, deployed, and used by various unsuspecting third parties.

🦁 The Magical Island Dilemma
|
|
|
|
On a mystical island, there are 19 lions and 1 sheep. The lions only eat sheep and never each other. There's a magical twist: if a lion eats a sheep, it transforms into a sheep. All lions are highly intelligent and follow two strict rules:
1. Don't get eaten.
2. Eat a sheep only if it doesn't lead to being eaten.
A biologist observed the 19 lions and 1 sheep on this island. After a year, the biologist returned. How many lions and how many sheep are there now?
