For me, the communal dimension is the most fascinating part of wail-worthy films. Crying synchronises a room, creating a wordless, collective experience between strangers sitting shoulder to shoulder in the dark. In the final scene of Hamnet, Agnes realises the play unfolding before her is not just theatre, but a conduit for Shakespeare’s grief over their son. As she reaches out towards the boy on stage, the surrounding theatre audience mirrors her gesture. Grief becomes catharsis, rippling outward, from mother to performer to crowd. And in the cinema where we sit, something similar happens; we echo it, too. There is a connection on-screen as much…

Despite what you’ve heard, first time homebuyers are not getting dramatically older. Statistics are like hot dogs — often juicy but with sometimes questionable ingredients. A recent example is a story racing around the country: first-time homebuyers’ median age is 40 this year, versus just 28 years old in 1991. This alarming trend was explored in a November 6 New York Times article, citing survey data from the National Association of Realtors (NAR).  But I fell into a trap of my own making, by ingesting a “wow” statistic that reinforced my own experience —  I bought my first house in…

Alexander Ovechkin is the top scoring left winger who is without a contract for next season, but it will be the Washington Capitals or retirement for him. He’s not going to play for another organization. There are no ‘star’ left wingers going to be hitting free agency on July 1st. There are some middle-six forwards who will generate some interest for teams looking for depth scoring. For contending teams, these might be third-line players. It’s an older group when looking at the top scorers so far this season, with half of top 10 being in their mid-30s or older. If…

After the Supreme Court outlawed most of his tariffs on Friday, Trump announced new global tariffs of 10%. On Saturday he said he would increase these to 15%.

Cluster Mempool1 is a complete reworking of how the mempool handles organizing and sorting transactions, conceptualized and implemented by Suhas Daftuar and Pieter Wuille. The design aims to simplify the overall architecture, better align transaction sorting logic with miner incentives, and improve security for second layer protocols. It was merged into Bitcoin Core in PR #336292 on November 25, 2025.  The mempool is a giant set of pending transactions that your node has to keep track of for a number of reasons: fee estimation, transaction replacement validation, and block construction if you’re a miner.  This is a lot of different…

The audience is set to be “living and breathing the same space as the characters”.

By John Morris, updated February 20, 2026 The iGaming sector isn’t tearing down its foundations; it’s reshaping them. Rather than discarding traditional casino systems, newer brands tend to layer hybrid infrastructures on top, combining established platforms with modular Web3 components. Vegastars is a clear example of that approach. It integrates blockchain functionality without tearing out its entire operational stack. The goal isn’t to “become” a blockchain platform. It’s to connect to one where it makes sense. From a broader industry perspective, hybrid architecture has started to look less experimental and more strategic. Ongoing reviews of platform roadmaps, middleware development, and…
