Variations of the game of rock, paper, scissors has been settling arguments for hundreds of years. But like most thing, this game is more than just random chance – it’s a battle of patterns, psychology, and statistics, as Mic have pointed out. So while it might be too late to assert your playground dominance, here’s what the statistics, research, and experts have to say about winning the
When it comes to choosing our furry companions, many of us stick to the rule the cuter the better. There’s just one tiny problem. Animals bred to have super-cute looks often suffer ill health – sausage dogs have bad backs, munchkin cats are prone to heart problems, and pugs struggle to breathe. A recent viral image brings the latter to our attention, specifically how messed up pugs have bec
If there’s one constellation that even the most uninterested stargazer can identify it’s Orion, famous for his three-starred belt. Yet something is definitely up with the cosmic hunter as one of his most iconic stars has been dimming, leading to speculation that it could be about to go supernova. Betelgeuse is also known as Alpha Orionis, meaning that it is the brightest star in the constel
Scottish dog walkers beware: There is a bridge in West Dunbartonshire that is said to have a peculiar and often fatal effect on pet pooches, who have been inexplicably leaping into the gorge below since the 1950s. In that time, around 50 dogs are said to have met their end beneath this creepy crossing, with some reports estimating that a further 600 have miraculously survived after jumping off the
Experts fear the Amazon rainforest has reached a catastrophic tipping point. Leading rainforest scientists Thomas Lovejoy and Carlos Nobre warned in an editorial published Thursday that deforestation in the world's largest rainforest has led the Amazon to the brink of an irreversible process called "dieback." That scenario would turn the Amazon into an African-savanna-type landscape. The tro
There's a giant contradiction in the middle of the Arizona desert: an experimental city designed for thousands that now contains only a few dozen inhabitants. For nearly five decades, a group called the Cosanti Foundation has been working to build a city that would inspire a new future of urban design. Today, the project is only 5 percent complete. Called Arcosanti, the city was envisioned b
From finding the building blocks for life on Mars to breakthroughs in gene editing and the rise of artificial intelligence, here are six major scientific discoveries that shaped the 2010s - and what leading experts say could come next Are we alone? We don't yet know whether there was ever life on Mars - but thanks to a small, six-wheeled robot, we do know the Red Planet was habitable. Sho
Some 7,800 light-years away, in the constellation of Cygnus, lies a most peculiar black hole. It's called V404 Cygni, and in 2015, telescopes around the world stared in wonder as it woke from dormancy to devour material from a star over the course of a week. That one event provided such a wealth of information that astronomers are still analysing it. And they have just discovered an amazing occ
Earlier this year the Belgian government halted a 5G test over radiation concerns. Switzerland is monitoring risks posed by the 5G network. A member of the UK House of Commons warned the parliament of the "unintended consequences" of the 5G upgrade. 5G fears have become mainstream. But their point of origin is anything but. If you go digging into the claims behind these fears, you'll discove
The bushfires in Australia are now so big that they are generating their own weather, in the form of giant thunderstorms that start more fires, according to the Bureau of Meteorology in Victoria. "Pyro-cumulonimbus clouds have developed to altitudes over 16km in East #Gippsland this afternoon. These fire-induced storms can spread fires through lightning, lofting of embers and generation of seve
