Apple recently rolled out the "terrifying" iPhone feature Facebook was so afraid of: App Tracking Transparency (ATT). Announced almost a year ago, ATT is a privacy feature which forces developers that want to track users across apps and services to ask for their permission first. That's never happened before with companies that make money from online ads and track users to sell more lucrative personalized advertisements. Facebook was very vocal against Apple, and the first stats following the rollout of iOS 14.5 prove that the company was right to be afraid. When given the option, most people will ...

'Back to Normal' Sparks Equal Parts Relief & Unease in Adults and Children with ADHD
May 17, 2021
May 17, 2021
When the CDC revised its mask guidance for fully vaccinated Americans last week, a light switch flipped — at least theoretically. In reality, ADDitude readers are reporting decidedly mixed emotions and a high degree of anxiety about getting 'back to normal.' Your optimism about re-entry is pulsing on and off, and everyone is feeling a little dizzy.
In ADDitude's recent survey of 1,471 caregivers and adults with ADHD — our 14th pandemic pulse-taking since April 2020— nearly 70% of respondents said they are still feeling overwhelmed or exhausted, but 30% are also feeling optimistic. For ...

Apple's M1 processor is a world-class desktop and laptop processor—but when it comes to general-purpose end-user systems, there's something even better than being fast. We're referring, of course, to feeling fast—which has more to do with a system meeting user expectations predictably and reliably than it does with raw speed.

10 million Americans got overcharged by the IRS, and you might be one of them

If you filed your 2020 federal tax return before March 11, listen up -- the IRS just issued some of the best news that it's possible to receive from the tax agency. Namely, that millions of Americans are about to get an unexpected IRS refund.

It's not enough to trust science on vaccines—others have to as well
May 17, 2021
Enlarge (credit: Luis Alvarez)
Before the COVID-19 pandemic, it was possible to believe that the US public's skepticism of scientific information had some limits. Once a crisis hit a critical point—when things became a matter of life and death—people would come around, the thinking went.
Obviously, that hasn't been the case. The US public's skepticism toward science is extending toward one of its most important developments: vaccines. The COVID-19 vaccines offer both the prospect of a return to normal life and limits on the risk of dangerous coronavirus variants evolving—but only if enough people are vaccinated. And that ...

It's unknown at this time what manufacturer produces the 20MP 1-inch sensor, but Sony Semiconductor sells several 20MP 1"-type sensors, so it's possible one of its sensors ...

A Timely Remembrance of President Eisenhower
May 17, 2021
By Nancy Spannaus
May 17, 2021—Neither Republicans nor Democrats have a kind thing to say about President Dwight D. Eisenhower these days. Yet, provoked by the horrors of the Middle East crisis, I found myself looking once more at the record of the last General we had as President of the United States. What I dug up was a history of statesmanship which speaks to the enduring, if too-weak, influence of American System thinking in the otherwise dismal decade of the 1950s.

How to Measure Your Child's 'Real Age'
May 17, 2021
When kids have ADHD, they tend to be scattered across different developmental areas.

In families living with ADHD, parents tend to base their interactions and expectations on their child's expressive language ...

May 17, 2021
Subcultures can have a lasting impact, but it's rare that they, themselves, have staying power. From Greasers to Beatniks, history's style tribes tend to have their moment, before inevitably being consigned to fancy-dress party irrelevance. Some ideas remain, but the glory days always come to an end sooner or later.
Well, perhaps not always. Case in point: the Mods.
While Teddy Boys, New Romantics, Emos, Skinheads and Punks have all fallen by the wayside, Mod style has remained. For more than 50 years, the movement that first brought slim-cut Italian tailoring and motor scooters to UK shores has been ...

May 17, 2021: Small Axe and America: New Orleans and Creolization
May 17, 2021
[One of my favorite cultural works of the last year was Small Axe, filmmaker Steve McQueen's anthology film series about the West Indian community in England from the 1960s through the 1980s.

So this week I'll highlight a handful, leading up to a Guest Post on McQueen's prior films!]
On how New Orleans helps us better engage America's defining creolizations.
