Twitter Deletes Fact-Check Of Musk Connecting Bronny James’ Cardiac Arrest To Covid Vaccine
Topline X—the recently rebranded version of Twitter—removed a fact-check from a Tuesday post by company owner Elon Musk that linked the cardiac arrest suffered by college basketball player Bronny James to the Covid-19 vaccine—the latest assertion from the billionaire who’s increasingly promoting conspiracy theories and fringe ideas.
Big Data: 33 Brilliant And Free Data Sources Anyone Can Use
Data is ubiquitous — but sometimes it can be hard to see the forest for the trees, as it were. Many companies of various sizes believe they have to collect their own data to see benefits from big data analytics, but it’s simply not true. There are hundreds (if not thousands) of free data sets available, ready to be used and analyzed by anyone willing to look for them. Below is a list of 35 of the
It Sounds Crazy, But Fukushima, Chernobyl, And Three Mile Island Show Why Nuclear Is Inherently Safe
“By now close to one million people have died of causes linked to the Chernobyl disaster,” wrote Helen Caldicott, an Australian medical doctor, in The New York Times. Fukushima could “far exceed Chernobyl in terms of the effects on public health.” Many pro-nuclear people came to believe that the accident was proof that the dominant form of nuclear reactor, which is cooled by water, is fatally flaw
The World's Highest-Paid YouTube Stars 2015
Ask just about any stranger on the street who Felix Kjellberg is and you'll likely get a blank stare.

We Just Thought, 'This Is How You Start A Company In America'
Kind of like every baseball player will try to be Major League, I thought that Silicon Valley is where you should start if you want to go big as an entrepreneur. In Japan, of course, there are accelerators and a proud tradition in technology. I had followed the tech industry even as a student, reading the blogs and keeping up with all the developments. A few of us visited Silicon Valley while we w
Now They Tell Us: The Story Of Japan's 'Lost Decades' Was Just One Big Hoax
Few “facts” of modern history have become so firmly established as the idea that the Japanese economy flamed out in the early 1990s. This story has greatly discombobulated other nations' policymaking, not least, as we will see in a moment, policymaking in the United States. Yet the “lost decades” story is not just a hoax but one of the most absurd and transparent hoaxes ever promoted in the Englis
How Facial Recognition Technology Can Be Used To Get Your Social Security Number
Those freaked out by facial recognition technology have fresh fodder: a study from Carnegie Mellon University in which researchers were able to predict people's social security numbers after taking a photo of them with a cheap webcam. At the head of the research team was Alessandro Acquisti, a CMU professor who pointed out in 2009 that the social security number system has a huge security flaw --
The Twitter Gender Gap
Today, on the day after Mother’s Day, I’m going off topic. Instead of entrepreneurship, I’ve got mom on my mind. What would I do without her wise counsel? There are no truer words than “listen to your mother.” As I sat with mine yesterday, I began to wonder, what about other women? Is “mother” the only woman that gets our attention? According to two recent studies and Twitter, it seems so. Earlier
Friending the Elderly in Japan
In 1997 Shinji Yamasaki was advising European private banks seeking a foothold in Japan when two facts struck him: Older Japanese were wealthy, and nobody knew how to market to them. Within three years he'd quit his job at Bain & Company to create Senior Communication, a consulting group that runs Japan's largest social networking site for seniors. Today Seniorcom.jp has more than 300,000 members,
Searching For Entrepreneurship in Japan
TOKYO -- Japan's entrepreneurs, scarce and poorly-funded, need to grow their ranks and make their companies globally competitive before they can help the country claw its way out of the economic downturn, professors and venture capitalists told a conference here today. Researchers from Stanford University's Program on Japanese Entrepreneurship came to the University of Tokyo for a symposium that b
