One of the most consequential companies to come out of Silicon Valley is one you've probably never heard of. The story of General Magic starts in 1989 at Apple, when Marc Porat convinced then-CEO John Scully that the future of computing was in a device that would marry communications, computers, and consumer electronics — the germ that would spawn the smartphones we know today. When Apple lost interest, General Magic was created by some of Apple's project members. Those people would go on to start some of the websites and design the devices we know today, like eBay, the iPod, and Blackberry. General Magic premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival and will have a broader release later this year.
The Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory finished digitizing recently-declassified footage of atmospheric nuclear tests from the height of the Cold War. All the chilling film is available on their YouTube channel — and they are terrifying to watch. The video here is from a test on the infamous Bikini Atoll site called Operation Hardtack. The detonation causes a huge water burst that causes an ominous black mushroom cloud to rise from the ocean — a dark reminder of the power of the Nuclear Age.
Long gone are the days of stiff, wrinkled chinos. Modern pants are cut from a different (better) cloth, and Jack Archer's Jetsetter Tech Pants are a prime example.

The fit provides room where it's needed but is slim where it's not, and is enhanced by a diamond-shaped gusset that prevents tightness in the crotch and the curved-waist design that provides a lift to the backside. Built with premium stitching, they also feature a zippered coin pocket and hidden reflective tape that's only revealed when they're cuffed. Now available in two cuts: the original, best-selling Slim Fit and the new Straight Fit, which offer a roomier fit from the knee down.
