Generation Z’s perspective on work and personal life differs sharply from that of previous generations. For those entering the job market, work-life balance includes not only time for personal well-being but also the normalization of sex in the workplace—something previously considered taboo in professional environments. Remote work made this easier. EduBirdie conducted a survey of 2,000 Gen Z respondents about their sexual relationships in the context of shifting from remote to in-person work.

The content of their conversation remains unclear, but the call took place while the president was considering a previously unlikely option: direct U.S. intervention in Israel’s efforts to damage Iran’s nuclear capabilities. Since the beginning of the conflict, one idea has lingered in the background: the only way to reach Fordow is through Washington. A key decision.

Operation Rising Lion against Iran wasn’t just another attack. This offensive has become a battle between the two nations and seeks two things unlikely to happen in the short term. First, it aims to overthrow the Ayatollah regime by inciting the population to revolt. Second, it aims to dismantle Iran’s nuclear program. On that point, one name stands out above all others: Fordow. The nuclear mountain.

Tesla CEO Elon Musk has cultivated an image as a tireless worker. He’s said he works more than 100 hours per week and once slept in his Tesla office to help save the company from bankruptcy. Proud of that reputation, Musk didn’t hesitate to demand the same from his employees. However, a group of Tesla investors sent the company’s board of directors a surprising request: that Musk devote at least 40 hours a week to running Tesla. The request comes at a critical moment.

You have probably seen news stories in recent months about the end of support for Windows 10. If your computer runs on that operating system, consider when to upgrade to Windows 11 or find an alternative. Sticking with an operating system without technical support is often seen as reckless. With good reason: You lose security patches, compatibility with new applications, and protection against threats. However, not everyone seems concerned about staying up to date.

Drones have significantly altered combat tactics. Ukraine has become a testing ground where advanced technologies and traditional weapons are combined to gain the upper hand. We’ve already seen how the First and Second World Wars influenced some practices. The latest example is a Russian offensive that Ukraine didn’t see coming: waves of troops on two wheels. Suicide charges. The images circulating on various channels are reminiscent of the Mad Max film series.

For months, the AI race had been narrowing. Gemini 2.5 Pro, Claude 4 Opus, and DeepSeek R1 closed the gap with OpenAI’s models by introducing increasingly sophisticated reasoners. The overwhelming dominance of 2022, when ChatGPT left the competition bewildered and several steps behind, no longer defines the current landscape. Today, it’s a head-to-head fight. However, the company led by Sam Altman hasn’t stood still.

In 2022, Japan made a decision that would bear fruit months later. It no longer wanted to depend so heavily on China for rare earth elements, so it launched a series of projects to search for them—even on the ocean floor. In the summer of 2024, Japan struck gold beneath the seabed with a 230-million-ton deposit of these “precious” elements—a trove found under the nation’s easternmost island.

How can you improve a product significantly year after year? Moreover, how can you do so when the product has been on the market for more than two decades and is already highly developed? This is the challenge Apple faces every year with macOS, the operating system that has powered its Macs since OS X debuted in 2001. In the last quarter century, macOS has undoubtedly changed, but surprisingly, not by much. Anyone who used a Mac back then wouldn’t feel too out of place using one today.
