Jun 25, 2:38AM
In iOS 7, Siri's voice is becoming less robotic and more human (we'll have to wait and see if she's more useful). One of those improvements will be how she pronounces names. Instead of butchering your name or choppily spelling out letters of your friends' names, she'll be able to be 'taught' what the correct pronunciation is.

An Artist Got 16 Bucks for a Song That Pandora Streamed a Million Times
Jun 25, 2:00AM
A million of anything is pretty much always an insanely impossible number. Winning a million dollars, having a million Twitter followers, selling a million products—anything done a million times is something to be proud of. But maybe not getting your song streamed on Pandora a million times. All you get sometimes is 16 measly dollars. Or $16.89 to be exact.

Watch a Guy Freak People Out By Floating in the Air on a Moving Bus

These Gaze-Sensitive Garments Move When They're Looked At
Jun 24, 10:10PM
Staring at another person's clothing is generally considered rude—in fact, the mere concept of gaze has its own history and critical literature. But in this particular case, it's recommended: These two dresses, by Montreal designer Ying Gao, aren't really complete unless someone is staring at them.

The Adorable Mini-Sports Car Has Gotten a Remarkable Upgrade
Jun 24, 9:56PM
As you may or may not remember, a few years ago we posted photos of these incredible, half-scale sports cars that—despite being called "children's cars"—are more badass than any car any adult could ever hope to own. And although the junior cars' visionary, Nathan Redfearn, was getting ready to shut down production, the beautiful, tiny, and fully-functional cars struck a chord with so many people that they were able to keep going—much to our benefit. And now they're even getting an awesome new upgrade.

Author Barbara Ehrenreich Revisits Her 1987 Look at the Future of Sex
Jun 24, 8:45PM
The January 1987 issue of the legendary (and sadly, now defunct) Omni magazine included predictions from 14 "great minds" about what the world might look like in twenty years. By the year 2007, musician David Byrne believed that computers would do little for future musicians outside of their bookkeeping. Noted rich guy Bill Gates wondered how much stimulation (read: overstimulation) people of the future might be able to handle. And feminist author Barbara Ehrenreich predicted that by the 21st century, ideas about sexual dysfunction and what constitutes a healthy sexual relationship will have changed dramatically.

The World's Flight Patterns Beautifully Visualized
Jun 24, 8:43PM
According to the Airports Council International, the world's busiest airport by passenger traffic is Hartsfield–Jackson Atlanta International Airport with a whopping 95,462,867 passengers passing through in 2012. Which makes sense considering it's the home of Delta, the world's largest airline. So one can only imagine what the flight paths of all those planes must look like, which is why Alexey Papulovskiy scraped data from Plane Finder for a month before charting it all out in a beautifully interactive visualization tool called Contrailz.

A New Echolocation Algorithm Can Map Spaces Based on Sound Alone
Jun 24, 7:19PM
There's plenty of precedent for echolocation in the natural world: bats can navigate based on the echo of their chirrups; and blind humans, at least anecdotally, sometimes develop remarkable sound-based spatial skills. But using sound to accurately map a space in three dimensions? That's new.

New York City's New Subway Tunnel Looks Like a Level from Half-Life
Jun 24, 7:01PM
New York City's Metro Transit Authority is still plugging away on its giant project to bring the 7 train into far west Manhattan, and the scope of the construction is just as awe-inspiring as ever.
