Google Wallet has a new way to securely send money to kids. The kids' balance has no card or extra account attached. Kids can only spend with tap-to-pay. A few days ago, Google announced a new feature for Wallet -- the ability to send money to a child's Google Wallet account so they can securely spend money with the app's tap-to-pay feature on a compatible Android phone or watch. As a parent, I realize the struggle of needing to get money to your kids, but not always trusting them to carry cash (or not even having it in the first place to give them).

We should smile at our dogs - a new scientific study reveals why

BBC News

Any dog lover will tell you their canine friend picks up on their mood and emotions. Now scientists have worked out exactly what is going on inside a dog's brain when it sees a human - even a complete stranger - smiling or scowling. Their research involved 14 dogs in total who all sat very still in a brain scanner while they were shown pictures of people's faces. Photographs of happy, smiling human faces made an area of the brain that is associated with reward light up with activity. This reward circuitry is the part of the brain that is activated when we enjoy and remember good things, like tasty food or praise.


Claude's Record-a-Skill cut my research from hours to 30 minutes - but the magic has limits

Claude turns narrated screen recordings into reusable skills. Last month, Anthropic announced a new Claude Cowork feature: the ability to narrate a screen recording and turn it into a Claude skill . I tried it and, well, as they say, All magic comes with a price. Let's set the stage by defining what we're after here. A skill is a very detailed canned prompt that can be run like a program from within Claude (and many other AIs).


'Long-range sanctions': Ukraine hopes strikes cause Russia fear and losses

Al Jazeera

Is the war entering a new phase? 'Long-range sanctions': Ukraine hopes strikes cause Russia fear and losses Then come indistinguishable shouts of male voices, followed by a crescendo - a loud sound like scissors tearing through wrapping paper. "Like an orchestra, every part has to work together in order for us to achieve effective strikes," says Colonel Ray, commander of the Kairos Battalion of the Magyars Birds Brigade. The drone, roughly the length of a compact SUV with a wingspan of nearly 6 metres (19.7 feet), climbs into the night. Where exactly it is headed is known only to him.
