This is as close as you can get to a real-life Ghostbusters proton pack. Smarter Every Day got together with Cameron Prince and his Tesla gun, a self-contained unit that turns a Tesla coil into a point and shoot electricity geyser. Of course, the natural thing to do is capture the electrical arc in slow-motion.
Parts and Labor's Matty Matheson is always good for a laugh and a profanity filled how-to. For Bon Appétit, he tones down the vulgar to give his tips and tricks for food ranging from A-Z. Though it really just turns into his personal opinions of food from A-Z, it's still entertaining nonetheless.
It might look like baby steps, but for robotics, it's a giant leap. Boston Dynamics shows their Atlas robot walking over uneven ground with small footholds — something almost comical to watch compared to the ease with which a human could perform the same feat. But while Atlas might be slow now, this small step puts humanoid robots even closer to an every-day reality.
RiseGuide is bringing AI coaching to one of the most anxiety-inducing modern skills: public speaking. The platform's new Speech Analyzer listens to up to 60 seconds of recorded speech, then evaluates pacing, confidence, pauses, filler words, and structure before delivering a score alongside targeted feedback for improvement. Built into RiseGuide's Charisma Mastery program, the feature feels less like another passive self-help tool and more like a speaking coach that fits in your pocket, helping users sharpen clarity, cadence, and presence through real-time analysis and repetition.

Formulated with proven ingredients like salicylic acid, hyaluronic acid, and natural exfoliants, it focuses on real results without overcomplicated routines or luxury packaging theater.
Written by James Gunn, employees are forced to turn on each other after an unknown voice informs them they have to start taking out their coworkers. Sort of a Saw meets The Office, but without those deadpan confessionals. We've got our money on Merle. He survived most of the zombie apocalypse with only one arm, so knocking out some corporate yuppies should be nothing. Starring John Gallagher Jr., Tony Goldwyn, John C. McGinley, and Michael Rooker, the film's slated for release March 17, 2017.
Off the coast of Greece, the Fourni archipelago is a haven for ancient shipwrecks. In an area of sea just over 17 miles, 45 shipwrecks have been found, with a wealth of artifacts that give an insight into the seafaring lives of the ancient Greeks. Philippe Cousteau digs into the waters around the Fourni archipelago and how it's discoveries are shaping our view of ancient Greek life.
NTDs are the new Black Plague. They can weaken, maim, blind, disfigure, and kill — all of which costs society financially as well as resourcefully. Kurzgesagt explains the war between humans and parasites, how we're fighting it, and who's winning the battle.

Vita Coco has become the warm-weather essential for a generation constantly on the move, delivering a cleaner, more functional answer to hydration during another brutal summer of record-breaking heat. Packed with naturally occurring electrolytes — including 3.5x more than the leading sports drink — the brand's coconut water helps replenish what long commutes, beach days, workouts, and heat waves quickly drain away, without the artificial colors or overly sweet formulas crowding store shelves. Equal parts refreshing and performance-minded, Vita Coco bridges wellness and lifestyle with an easy-drinking formula that feels just as at home in a gym bag as it does beside a rooftop pool, making it one of the smartest ways to stay cool when temperatures refuse to cooperate.
Private Label QR turns ordinary household labels into dynamic digital reference points, using durable QR stickers that link physical objects to editable information accessible from any smartphone camera. Once attached to a box, appliance, container, suitcase, or keepsake, each label can store notes, photos, instructions, contact details, or organizational data that can be updated anytime without replacing the sticker itself. The system feels especially useful for the kind of real-world friction most smart-home products ignore, from labeling moving boxes and organizing pantry goods to leaving appliance instructions for Airbnb guests or preserving the stories tied to family heirlooms. With no app required and built-in controls for private, public, or group visibility, the platform lands somewhere between modern inventory management and a digital memory layer for everyday objects.
Never underestimate the power of editing. If you thought The Witch was just a terrifying New England folktale, you'd be completely wrong. Just add some classically-styled music, a few title cards in Futura font, and you have the next eagerly-awaited Wes Anderson film.

Here's a breakdown of how far your house might be from live nuclear stockpiles.
