Prometheus Unchained. Content Warning.
The Thing About Fire So I was talking to my buddy Jake the other day (he teaches classics at the community college, poor bastard), and he brings up Prometheus again. Always fucking Prometheus with this guy. But he says something that stuck with me - "What if the whole torture thing backfired?"

The gods built Pandora to destroy humanity. Instead, she became humanity's upgrade. Here's how. Content Warning.
So This Pandora Thing Has Been Bugging Me okay so like, I was supposed to be working on my actual job today (don't tell my boss) but instead I went down this rabbit hole about Pandora and now I'm convinced everyone's got the story completely wrong

How AI Already Controls Your Life
Did you know that over 77% of everything you see online—whether on social media, Netflix, or even your shopping apps—is chosen for you by an algorithm? That means most of your digital life isn’t shaped by random chance or personal choice, but by invisible lines of code working quietly in the background.

How AI is Transforming the Hiring Process
Artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly woven into every stage of recruiting. Nearly 99% of Fortune 500 companies now use automated Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) to sift through resumes, and roughly 87% of recruiters report using AI-powered tools in hiring. These systems promise to speed up hiring—eliminating low-fit applicants, highlighting top candidates, and even analyzing video interviews—all with minimal human intervention. In practice, the benefits can include dramatically faster time-to-hire and lower costs: for example, one ATS report found an effective AI system can cut the hiring cycle by up to 60% and reduce screening costs by 75% by filtering out about 88% of unqualified applicants. On the other hand, AI in hiring raises fresh concerns about fairness, transparency, and privacy.

The Hidden Legacy of Giants And The Smithsonian: Part One
Memories of Forgotten Beings and the Mysteries They Left Behind Throughout human history, stories of giants have haunted the edges of myth and memory. From the towering Nephilim of the Bible to the Titans of Greece and the thunderous Jötnar of Norse legend, nearly every culture has preserved fragments of a time when beings of unusual size and power roamed the Earth. But are these stories simply metaphors for human ambition, or do they conceal a hidden chapter of history that someone has tried to erase? Old Memories of a race of forgotten beings fade through the myths and scriptures of nearly every civilization. They surface like fragments of a dream, half-remembered, half-suppressed, yet too consistent across cultures to be ignored. The idea of giants, beings far taller and stronger than ordinary men, is not limited to the Bible’s brief mention of the Nephilim. It is a motif carved into stone, sung in ancient epics, and passed down through the oral traditions of peoples separated by oceans and millennia.

The Empathy Protocol
According to a 2024 survey, 72% of young adults aged 18–30 believe AI could one day understand human emotions as deeply as another person. That number is astonishing—not because it proves machines are taking over our hearts, but because it shows how ready our generation is to believe in the possibility of artificial empathy.

Why This Weekend May Be The Best Time To See The Perseid Meteor Shower
Every August, the night sky treats us to one of nature’s most mesmerizing spectacles — the Perseid meteor shower. Known for its dazzling display of “shooting stars,” the Perseids are a highlight for both seasoned astronomers and casual skywatchers. While the meteor shower’s official peak happened earlier this week, bright moonlight robbed many people of the show’s full beauty. Fortunately, this weekend could offer a second chance — and perhaps an even more magical viewing experience.
