Taking 60 seconds to listen to a simple tone could make your next trip more enjoyable. | Image: Samsung Samsung released a new free app today called Hearapy, now available for Android devices through the Google Play store , that it claims can reduce the symptoms of motion sickness using just sound. The app's functionality is very straightforward. It plays a low 100Hz sine wave tone through a pair of connected headphones for 60 seconds. This is supposed to stimulate the vestibular system - the parts of the inner ear that are responsible for orientation and maintaining balance. The app allows the duration of the tone to be adjusted between 40 to 120 seconds, but a full minute of listening is supposed to provide relief from motion sickeness symp … Read the full story at The Verge.

Sundry Photography/iStock Editorial via Getty Images Lockheed Martin ( LMT ) on Tuesday said it has launched a new facility designed to accelerate the development and early production of advanced defense systems for U.S. government customers, as the Pentagon pushes for faster procurement timelines. Artist rendering of a Lockheed Martin rapid fielding center (Lockheed Martin) The company’s Rapid Fielding Center is intended to bring design, testing and prototype manufacturing into a single, integrated environment. By situating engineering teams close to production equipment and factory workers, the facility allows for faster iteration and real-time feedback during development, according to the company. Executives said the approach is meant to shorten the timeline from concept to early production, with systems that traditionally took years to develop now potentially moving through the process in a matter of months. The company also indicated that the modular layout of the facility can be adjusted to accommodate different programs, helping refine manufacturing processes before systems transition to full-scale production. The investment comes as a new generation of defense technology companies, including Anduril Industries , is challenging traditional approaches to weapons development. Unlike established contractors that often build systems in response to detailed government specifications, newer entrants have adopted a more commercial, product-driven model that funds development internally and delivers ready-made systems to customers. These companies also emphasize software-centric design and rapid iteration, integrating artificial intelligence and autonomous capabilities into hardware platforms and updating systems continuously after deployment. In manufacturing, firms such as Anduril are experimenting with scalable production techniques inspired by commercial industries, including the use of off-the-shelf components and “software-defined” factories intended to acceler...

shapecharge/E+ via Getty Images Markets have been rattled by escalating Middle East tensions. Jeff Evans, VP, Director and Lead for Empirical Research and PM Support with TD Asset Management, breaks down how investors are shifting to defensive and quality stocks in a search for stability. Transcript Greg Bonnell: Markets have been volatile as the Middle East conflict continues, but under the surface, there are some shifts taking place. Joining us now to discuss is Jeff Evans from TD Asset Management. Jeff, great to have you back. Everyone is trying to navigate this market and figure out what's going on. Let's talk about the implications of the conflict. Jeff Evans: First of all, great to be back. Always a pleasure to be here. Thanks for having me on. And yeah, it's been not just one year, but multiple years now of volatility in the markets. This, of course, just being the latest incident to come in. We've had this now for the past year with a lot of tariff turmoil and other geopolitical news. Take it back the last five years, we've had inflation, interest rates, COVID. Seems to be just one shock after another hitting the markets. I think when you get into these periods of volatility and uncertainty, the important thing is to take a step back and look at things at a bigger picture level. And for me, that is, what drives markets over the longer term? Ultimately, it's earnings. If earnings go up, it may not happen right away, but eventually, the market tends to recognize that. You do tend to see stock prices follow earnings over the long term. It's a very important anchor. And so really the key here is, let's just take a step back and see what's happening with earnings growth and where earnings growth still is in the market. Of course, over the past 10 to 15 years, it's really been about the US and the US tech stocks. That's been the dominant source of earnings growth. What you started to see last year was interesting. It was the first year in really 15 years where ear...

We haven't heard much about Warner Bros.' forthcoming Supergirl , starring Milly Alcock in the title role, since the first teaser dropped back in December. But with its summer release approaching, the studio just released the first official full trailer, and it's definitely a crowd-pleaser. As previously reported , we met Alcock’s Supergirl briefly at the end of Superman , when she showed up to collect her dog Krypto, still a bit hungover from partying on a red-sun planet. She is more jaded than her cousin, having witnessed the destruction of Krypton and the loss of everything and everyone she loved. “He sees the good in everyone, and I see the truth,” she says in the teaser. Kara, aka Supergirl, is turning 23 and declares it will be the best year yet, which is admittedly “not a very high bar to clear.” While she might not be too keen on the prospect, she’s going to be a superhero nonetheless. Per the logline: “When an unexpected and ruthless adversary strikes too close to home, Kara Zor-El, aka Supergirl, reluctantly joins forces with an unlikely companion on an epic, interstellar journey of vengeance and justice.” Read full article Comments

Goldman Sachs Group Inc . has told clients eager to short leveraged loans that a product it’s developing to bet against the $1.4 trillion market isn’t yet ready. The bank had been pitching hedge funds on a total return swap — a type of derivative that would allow clients to profit from a loan’s price decline without ever owning the underlying debt. Investors are increasingly looking to make money from the sell off in software debt sparked by fears of AI disruption. But Goldman Sachs has told clients that it’s not ready to launch the effort as it works through additional considerations, according to people familiar with the matter. The bank may need to pause the initiative to further revise its documentation, the people said, asking not to be identified discussing private information. The product has not been used in any trades, they said. “Our market-making business is driven by our clients’ needs,” a spokesperson for Goldman Sachs said. “We continue to listen and engage with them across assets and strategies.” Investors have been seeking to capitalize on the declining value of software loans. Many such firms were acquired during a private equity buying spree, leaving them saddled with debt just as AI threatens their business models. Meanwhile, the collapse of autoparts supplier First Brands Group last year has emboldened traders to hunt for similar vulnerabilities in heavily-leveraged companies. Because the leveraged loan market is built on private, bespoke contracts rather than traded on public exchanges, it’s notoriously difficult to short. Unlike stocks, these loans can’t be easily borrowed for delivery in the open market. Total return swaps would give investors synthetic short exposure, essentially creating a bet on the debt’s performance.
