À propos de cet audio

Nonsense desperately tries to make sense of today’s business, technology, and (sometimes) entertainment headlines. Not too serious and occasionally funny, join technologist cj little and leggy blonde Jeff Parker for their unique take on the past week. While we can’t promise you’ll laugh every week, we can promise you’ll learn something new (and maybe even interesting). New episodes drop every Tuesday & Thursday mornings (UTC). Produced by an orangutan; art thanks to artificial intelligence. https://nonsense.productions Twitter: @nnsnspdcst Instagram: @nnsnspdcst Gmail: nnsnspdcst@gmail.comcj little and Jeff Parker Politique

    (27:52) Jeff’s Recommendation: The Machinist


    Ever tried counting sheep only to realize they are already asleep and you're the one they're counting? Yeah, us too!

    In this episode, we're ditching the boring sleep advice and diving headfirst into the weird, wild, and surprisingly effective world of sleep hacks. From cognitive shuffling, to how to time your daily nap, and what a "28-hour day" could mean for your work-life balance. We’ll even get into the science of why orgasms are a great sleep aid.

    Let’s ditch the struggle and get some real shut-eye, your well-rested, slightly weirder self will thank you.

    Google Files Emergency Stay. Following a major antitrust verdict in favor of Epic Games, Google has been ordered to make sweeping changes to its Play Store within 14 days, a move the company has challenged with an emergency stay. Really Google?

    Tea App Leaks. The dating advice app "Tea" experienced a major security breach, exposing thousands of user images, including selfies and photo IDs. The incident has raised questions about the app's security and its promise to be a safe place for women to share information, apparently with the entire world.

    Renewables Dominate New Power Plants. According to the U.S. Energy Information Administration, the vast majority of new power plant capacity added to the grid in the first half of the year was from renewable sources, primarily utility-scale solar and wind power. This surge in clean energy is a result of long-term planning, incentives, and a general shift away from burning stuff.
