Venturing into the wilderness is a pursuit that challenges the body, sharpens the mind, and soothes the soul. Whether you’re embarking on a weekend camping trip, a rigorous multi-day trek, or simply enjoying a peaceful afternoon in the great outdoors, having the right gear can mean the difference between a memorable adventure and a harrowing ordeal.
The modern outdoor man requires equipment that is versatile, durable, and easy to carry, seamlessly blending innovative design with rugged...

It’s the kind of thing that makes you smile every time you glance its way.
Soda cans have long been symbols of carefree afternoons and quick refreshment, but...
When the state of New York adopted a new whole-of-state approach to cybersecurity a few years ago, encompassing everything from transit to schools to power and water supplies, officials were still reeling from an attack that plunged part of Long Island into the paper-and-fax era of the ’90s.
Just before Christmas in 2021, a group of hackers, leveraging aging systems and outdated firewalls, quietly slipped into a computer in the Suffolk County clerk’s office and began spreading out...
Since 1974, William Stout Architectural Books in San Francisco’s Jackson Square has been one of the city’s most iconic destinations for its seemingly endless stock of art, design, and architecture books. As the store was approaching its 50th year in business with a fresh owner, the Eames Institute for Infinite Curiosity, it discovered a problem: It had run out of stickers to label its books. Then it discovered another problem—it didn’t have a formalized logo to print more.
But as luck...
The Federal Emergency Management Agency faced fresh upheaval Thursday just weeks before the start of hurricane season when the acting administrator was pushed out and replaced by another official from the Department of Homeland Security.
The abrupt change came the day after Cameron Hamilton, a former Navy SEAL who held the job for the last few months, testified on Capitol Hill that he did not agree with proposals to dismantle an organization that helps plan for natural disasters and...
As recently as 2021, Figma was a one-product company. That product was Figma Design, the dominant tool for creating app and web interfaces. The company’s subsequent addition of offerings such as FigJam (whiteboarding) and Figma Slides (presentations) was hardly a frenzied land grab.
But the announcements Figma made this week at its Config conference in San Francisco cover so much ground that my impulse was to interpret them as a massive, sprawling new attempt to take on . . . well,...
One of my dreams is to be able to float in the middle of water without getting too wrinkled or without actually drowning. I’m not a great swimmer and also I don’t know how to float on my back. So the only option for now is to ride a small boat and then stop in the middle and just hang out. Of course this would be more fun if there were a lot of other people with me so this latest product by Bote may be the perfect fit for those requirements.
The Hangout Water Hammock 15 represents the...
Razer isn’t afraid to shake up the gaming accessory world, and its latest gadget, the Clio, is a head-turner, literally. For gamers and movie buffs who crave immersive audio but dread the mess of surround speakers or the clamp of heavy headphones, Razer has come up with a delightfully oddball solution. This time, they’re putting the speakers right where your head rests, making that humble cushion the star of the show.
At first glance, the Razer Clio could easily pass as a plushy,...
Many brands take advantage of Mother’s Day to sell more products, like flowers and cupcakes. But 50 companies, including workwear label M.M. LaFleur, framing startup Framebridge, and stroller brand Bugaboo, are joining forces to draw attention to America’s lack of federal paid leave.
Across the country on Saturday, May 10, the nonprofit MomsRising, the Paid Leave for All campaign, and 50 brands are hosting pop-ups in New York City; Washington, D.C.; Philadelphia; Nashville; Hoboken,...
If someone driving a new version of a Subaru Forester crashes into a cyclist, an airbag will immediately inflate on the hood to help protect the person on the bike.
The SUV, which offers the feature only on vehicles sold in Japan, isn’t the first Subaru to include an external airbag. The company started including pedestrian protection airbags on its Japanese cars nearly a decade ago. But the brand says the new design is the first in the world intended to also protect...
Influencers often face more negativity than most people experience in a lifetime—and with that comes a significant mental health toll. Now, a new therapy service has been launched specifically for content creators.
CreatorCare, cofounded by digital creator Shira Lazar and backed by Creators 4 Mental Health and Revive Health Therapy, aims to break down both financial and systemic barriers to mental health care. While some creators earn millions of dollars, many struggle to make ends...
An irony of mainstream corporate sustainability efforts is that they focus significantly on the power of consumption. H&M promotes its “Conscious Collection” that uses organic cotton or recycled polyester. Samsung’s “Galaxy for the Planet” showcases its use of recycled plastics in its devices and sustainable packaging.
When companies advertise their products as sustainable, consumers frequently assume they can buy new items more frequently, making such moves paradoxically...
When Christopher Pelkey was killed in a road rage incident in Arizona, his family was left not only to grieve but also to navigate how to represent him in court. As they prepared to confront his killer, Gabriel Horcasitas, during sentencing, they made an unusual and deeply controversial choice: to have Pelkey appear to speak from beyond the grave.
To do so, they turned to technology: An AI-generated video featuring a re-created voice and likeness of Pelkey was presented as a victim...
Humans have long been transfixed by the moon, awed and inspired by its reassuring presence in the night sky and its influence on the tides. In recent decades, though, our fascination with our nearest celestial neighbor has become somewhat more opportunistic: The moon contains valuable resources, and governments and companies are eager to get their hands on them.
One such resource is helium-3 (He-3), a gas that some experts say could unlock clean and abundant energy on Earth as a fuel...
Navigating professional transitions can be a whirlwind of emotions for employees, whether starting a new job or leaving a company. Onboarding is essential for creating a sense of belonging and shared purpose that extends throughout a new hire’s tenure. And this vital initiative should be about more than following a checklist.
Onboarding provides an opportunity to make your newest colleagues feel genuinely connected to the team and confident in their contributions. This ensures they...
If there’s one thing worse than having to assemble a PowerPoint presentation, it’s being forced to sit through an achingly dull one conducted by someone else.
So what if there were a better option—a way anyone, regardless of skill, could create a sleek and actually engaging slideshow that looks like a professional designer had a hand in it?
If you ask Grant Lee, we’ve already reached the point where that’s possible. And it doesn’t end with presentations.
Lee is the...
When OpenAI pulled back its latest ChatGPT release—one that apparently turned the helpful chatbot into a total suck-up—the company took the welcome step of explaining exactly what happened in a pair of blog posts. The response was a notable move and really pulled back the curtain on how much of what these systems do is shaped by language choices most people never see. A tweak in phrasing, a shift in tone, and suddenly the model behaves differently.
For journalists, this shouldn’t...
You don’t wait for the sidewalk. You don’t check an app to see if it’s working. You don’t wonder if it’s meant for someone else. Sidewalks are just there—always available, always on. And when they’re well designed, you barely notice them. They quietly support everything: commerce, mobility, safety, health, and freedom of movement. Sidewalks don’t require instructions. They’re intuitive. Step on, move forward.
That’s the framing we need for local bus service. A...
For many families with young children in the U.S., the cost of childcare is prohibitively expensive, preventing some parents, especially mothers, from returning to the workforce. That’s why one California-based company recently introduced a new childcare initiative, vowing to pay up to $3,000 a month in childcare costs for eligible employees.
The cofounders of Cakes Body, 32-year-old twin sisters Casey Sarai and Taylor Capuano, say their own experiences as working mothers inspired the...
