Linguist and Because Internet author Gretchen McCulloch asked her Twitter followers to share the words that they can’t actually spell without relying on spellcheck. The answers she got will comfort and edify you.

With the latest iOS update, the Apple health app can now tell you about the noise levels you’ve been exposed to—both from the environment around you, and from your headphones. Here’s how to set it up, and what to do with that information once you have it.

As of the release of iOS 13, almost all Apple devices come with Siri pre-loaded, making Apple’s AI assistant even more ubiquitous than it already was.

Whenever I meet someone who, like me, is of Middle Eastern heritage, it’s guaranteed that within five minutes of learning this fact, I will turn the conversation to kibbeh.

We used to think of “The Talk” as that one intensely awkward conversation where your parent sits you down to tell you about sex (you already know what it is) and to strongly suggest you not have it (maybe you already are). But now we know that The Talk is actually a whole series of talks that don’t center solely…

But Minecraft’s vast community (112 million people log on per month!) are doing…

Human memory is as fascinating as it is fallible. You can lose years worth of Spanish lessons, but can still recite the opening scene of Goodfellas. You remember what you were wearing at your best friend’s wedding, but can’t recall what you wore last Wednesday. You are certain you got a 730 Verbal on your SATs, but…
