Ever since I first read Janine Benyus's Biomimicry: Innovation Inspired by Nature, I've descended into a rabbit hole in search of what " intelligence " really means (and who has it). Perhaps that's why I love the name of this newsletter so much. [It's a worm, after all. A humble, indispensable critter buried beneath the soil.] Benyus's central argument is that the "smartest" solutions to human problems already exist in nature. We just need to know where, and how, to look for them. (For instance: wind turbines inspired by humpback whales.)

It's become an unfortunate norm among automakers to promise new features first and then deliver them weeks or months later via software updates. And the execution is often lousy and imperfect. But Google's software prowess and the established Android Automotive OS ecosystem mean the upcoming 2026 Polestar 4 might skip the sluggishness of these over-the-air software updatesand vastly improve navigation. The electric coupe-shaped crossover will debut Google's new Live Lane Guidance system for the first time in any vehicle.

It's easy to take maps for granted. After all, most of us have a pretty good map in our pockets at all times, ready to show us how to get anywhere on the globe. But to make a map useful, you have to decide what to keep in and what to leave out-and, most importantly, which mathematical equations to use.

Three days back I went to a local grocery store and added few things into the cart and then I opened my mobile to do the UPI payment through cred. Then bam! I saw a white theme homepage as Cred's home. This is the first time I'm seeing it in 3 years of cred user(believe me I'm loyal to Cred! Hehe).

While summer weather draws more walkers to Ireland’s trails, many may not realize that simply wearing proper footwear and having a charged phone isn't enough for safety.

The Spot X provides 2-way messaging communications when you're far outside the reach of a cellular or Wi-Fi network, allowing for contact with friends and family.

The command to move slowly forward was misinterpreted, resulting in the vessel moving backward and colliding with the brooklyn bridge, causing significant damage.

The Royal Observatory, founded in 1675, is Britain’s oldest purpose-built scientific institution, enabling advancements in navigation and timekeeping crucial for global trade.

As I stood at a Himalayan crossroads clutching a paper map, I could feel my fingers twitching for a phone I'd vowed not to use.
