Writing things down may help you remember information more than typing - New Scientist (No paywall) But these modes of writing are very different, says Audrey van der Meer at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology. “When you type on the keyboard, you only make very simple finger movements towards the keys and they’re exactly the same movements for every letter you want to write.”
These recruits had small electrodes placed on their scalps to monitor their brains’ electrical signals. The team then flashed 30 words – such as the Norwegian for king, hedgehog and umbrella – on a screen in front of the participants.

WorkOpinion | It’s Not Time for Our Troops to Leave the Middle East  Let’s look first at Syria. It’s become commonplace in Washington to say that the presence of our 900 service members in Syria has outrun our foreign policy. The reality is much more complex than that. The United States entered Syria in 2014 with an international coalition to confront ISIS with our partners, the Syrian Democratic Forces. By mid-2019, we achieved the goal of removing the caliphate as a geographic entity, but remnants of ISIS endured. WorkOpinion | The Impeachment of Mayorkas Is a Permanent Stain on the House  And now a corrupt and obviously mentally decaying reality-television star threatens to crack open those terrible gates, to the raucous cheers of his devoted fans. I have concerns about Joe Biden, but no matter his condition next term, one thing I do know: He will not endanger America by destroying our most vital alliance.

WorkNew York special election: Tom Suozzi wins seat vacated by George Santos in boost for Biden  Both Pilip, an Orthodox Jew who was born in Ethiopia before moving to Israel and who served in the Israel Defense Forces before coming to the US, and Suozzi are fervent supporters of continued aid, which became a key issue in a district which the Jewish Democratic Council of America estimates has one of the largest Jewish populations of anywhere in the country. WorkWanted: True Love. Reward: $100,000.  Mr. Roy, now 33 and a project manager at OpenAI, called the reward a “dating bounty.” One friend offered an additional $1,000 with an easier requirement: It would go to whoever introduced Mr. Roy to a person who brought him “a lot of joy” for at least 18 months. Another friend, Anatoliy Zaslavskiy, who goes by Toli, added $500 with the same 18-month condition, bringing the full bounty up to $3,500. WorkWorkWorkWorkWorkYou Might Not Like What Jon Stewart Has to Tell You  More interesting, however, was the implicit message his first new monologue built to. You may have spent years wishing that Stewart would come back to dunk on your antagonists, but he considers himself free — and maybe obligated — to joke about things you wish he wouldn’t. WorkOpinion | The Isolationist G.O.P., Again  I’m surely among the most pro-Israel commentators around, but I can think of no moral or strategic argument in which hunger and disease among Gaza’s civilians serve anyone’s interests, least of all Israel’s. Johnson’s argument that Ukraine can’t win is belied by the fact that until it started running out of artillery shells, it was more than holding its own against Russia. It also echoes the prewar defeatism of figures like Robert Taft and Joseph Kennedy, who argued against helping Britain during the Blitz because Hitler was destined to win. WorkUK inflation holds steady at 4%, lower than expected  He nevertheless cautioned that, while the Bank of England is expected to begin cutting interest rates over the summer, any announcements of tax cuts in the government\'s Spring Budget statement next month would risk pushing the central bank to keep policy tighter for longer. WorkWorkWorkWorkWorkWorkWorkWorkWorkWorkWorkWorkRussia-Ukraine war live: Ukrainian forces destroy large Russian landing ship off Crimea  Russia has lost more than 3,000 tanks during its invasion of Ukraine – the equivalent of its entire prewar active inventory – but has enough lower-quality armoured vehicles in storage for years of replacements, according to the International Institute for Strategic Studies. Ukraine had also suffered heavy losses but western military replenishments had allowed it to maintain inventories while upgrading quality, ISS analysts wrote. WorkWorkWorkWorkWorkFormer footballers broke UK advertising rules with CBD tweets, says ASA  “We told Supreme CBD, Anthony Fowler, John Hartson and Matt Le Tissier to ensure their future ads were obviously identifiable as marketing communications,” the ASA said. “We also told them to ensure their future ads did not state or imply that the products could prevent, treat or cure human disease.” WorkFamily of man who died after surgery delay calls Sussex NHS trust apology 'hollow'  He said: "But the CQC also found too many things that we need to do better - from more consistent record-keeping to training, to managing pressures on overstretched staff, improving our culture, and in some of our hospitals, making colleagues feel more confident to speak up. We accept those challenges and we are working hard to put them right." WorkWorkWorkBezos Sells $4 Billion of Amazon Stock in Four Trading Days  The tax has received some pushback in the state. Billionaire Ken Fisher in March said he would move his firm from Washington to Texas, criticizing the tax and the court decision that upheld it. A ballot initiative could make its way to voters in November seeking to repeal the levy. WorkA ‘Clerical Error’ in Lyft’s Outlook Triggered 67% Stock Run-Up  Both Uber and Lyft drivers are considered independent contractors rather than employees, which has driven criticism from states such as New York, Massachusetts and California. Last November, both companies agreed to pay New York drivers a total of $328 million to prevent further litigation over whether drivers should be classified as employees with traditional legal protections. WorkAirbnb Sees Demand Moderating as Chesky Readies for Pivot  Airbnb’s results contrast with Expedia Group Inc., which owns the Vrbo vacation-rental site.

Though valuations may become stretched, it seems like generative AI could be enough of an earnings growth driver to help firms “catch up” to their now-higher multiples. Of the trio, analysts see the most upside (10%) in shares of NOW for the coming year.
