🕸️ The Cool Side of the Web
List of sci-fi crimes that will become possible by 2040. 🕵️
I love how this website has a "Future of Health" series, and then a list of crimes that will be possible based on these developments.
Side note: It's a great list for anyone looking for short story ideas (I also found a title generator here).

TiddlyWiki.
It's like a word processor, a spreadsheet, a vision board, and a website had a child. This is an awesome tool for organizing information, and it works on every, useful, platform.

Sir Tim Berners Lee is building a 'new internet' where you control your own data.

Leaving them with free hands for smokin' and drinkin'.

Can neuroscience help you zap your ex outta your brain? 💔
Part of the wider brain zapping narrative. In this episode, a rapper tries EEG-neurofeedback to get over an old relationship.
It's really less unusual and more mainstream than it appears. Some doctors are worried about the widespread us of home kits from Amazon to alleviate depression and enhance creativity.
Does it work? It depends.
Personally, I'll stick with Cana-Cola.

Cannabis-laced drinks could be a $600 million market in U.S. by 2022. ☘️🥤
