The Paragon Of Reporters

Now 84, Mitchell has been writing about the people and places around New York that exhilarated him for more than 60 years, first as a newspaper reporter and, since 1938, as a staff writer for The New Yorker. But, as he says, “the city changed on me,” and a lot of what he loved has gone. “There’s an old country saying–from the cradle to the hearse, things are never so bad that they can’t get worse–well, that’s the way I see the world....

The Perfect World Of Freedy Johnston

Does “Perfect World” measure up to “Can You Fly”? It’d take an electron microscope to figure out which is the better album. Johnston’s best songs reveal their true intentions slowly. Listen once to the title track of “Perfect World” and you hear a gorgeous, trembling song about a young father mourning the loss of his wife. Listen again, and you realize he’s murdered her and dumped her body in a lake....

The Picture Of Health

The next-gen Pixels will support a feature called “staggered HDR” for higher-quality photos with much greater dynamic range.

Staggered HDR on the Pixel 8 According to a series of tweets by renowned leaker Kuba Wojciechowski, the Pixel 8 phones (or the flagship versions, at least) will support staggered HDR. This is where the camera shoots short, medium, and long exposures at the same time to create HDR images with more detail and better colors....

The Pleasure And Enjoyment Of The Old World Cup Era

Captivating upsets and incredible drama were seen often, and every match seemed to be entertaining. It was a wonderful month of football, and there is also a sense of sadness that it will be the end of the tournament in this form. The 2022 World Cup is set to be played in Qatar, but the timing will certainly be different for fans around the world. The competition is scheduled to be played from November 21 to December 18, and staging the tournament outside of the summer will be an adjustment for all involved....

The Portrait Of A Hustler

The First Lady says she has ““no recollection’’ of the encounter. But even if Chung, a Taiwan-born California entrepreneur, is just spinning tales, he obviously did something right: over the next three years he made 49 trips to the White House. He’s now a key figure in the Clinton cash scandal; the Democrats have returned his $366,000 in murky contributions–and the Feds want to know how an unknown hustler won such easy access at the top....

The Practical Futurist Boiling The Ocean

But the pace of technologic change today means that the future happens far more quickly. Arguably, we’re all futurists now–practical futurists, trying to map the smartest path between today and a point not that far in the distance. Individuals, businesses–even countries–ignore technology at their peril. But the rest of the world won’t. How do you chart the course of a business, or an education, or a life, amid such uncertainty?...

The President S Spin Patrol

The general’s diversionary tactic had been carefully orchestrated. On that morning, like every morning since the war began, White House, Pentagon, State Department and CIA officials had gathered before dawn to plot the “spin” for the day. Administration officials understand that the United States is engaged in a PR war as well as a real one. Saddam Hussein’s strategy, they know, is the same one that worked for Ho Chi Minh in Vietnam: to bleed the U....

The New Coin Of The Realm

Never before have so many people in so many countries simultaneously adopted a new money, says Guenter Burghardt, the European Commission’s ambassador in Washington. Since 1999 stores and banks have priced in both euros and national currency; now people get the real stuff. The conversion is a massive operation.

The New Moto 360 Smartwatch Isn T Made By Motorola

After Moto decided to quit wearables in 2016 it has licensed the Motorola brand out to eBuyNow, a company described in a press release for the watch as ‘a strategic brand partner of the Motorola brand’. Licensing out brands is nothing new in tech. In recent years we have seen Android smartphones from the BlackBerry and Nokia brands, neither of which are actually made by those two companies. When it makes more sense for a third-party company to manufacture a product, the brand name is simply there to shift units....

The New Slave Trade

Terrible as the past four months had been, nothing could have prepared the 281 Chinese passengers on the freighter Golden Venture for their landfall in America. It was 2 a.m. and their ship, a dismal rust bucket never intended for human cargo, had just run aground off Rockaway Peninsula in New York. Pandemonium reigned on deck. Buffeted by six-foot ocean swells, the Golden Venture creaked and rolled as the frightened travelers peered toward the distant lights onshore....

The Next Big Dr. Mario Game Should Take Some Lessons From Dr. Mario World

If Nintendo does make another Dr. Mario game someday soon, it should use Dr. Mario World as a reference point. Although Dr. Mario World got mixed reviews and received some criticism for its monetization, other aspects of the game were very clever and built on the Dr. Mario game formula well. A new Dr. Mario game on a console could build on these ideas, making them more complex while polishing other aspects of Dr....
