News, Trending News

TEXAS (AP) — Texas officials announced a state takeover of Houston's eighth-largest public school system, with roughly 200,000 students, on Wednesday, following on years of threats and infuriating Democrats who criticised the action as political.

This Technology Makes Twitter More Bearable to Read

Technology, News

I DON'T HAVE to tell you that Twitter is, increasingly, an awful place to be, which is why I've mostly deserted the site. Now, I'm a lot happier.

Before I did it correctly, I thought pour-over coffee wasn’t for me.

Entertainment

RETURN AFTER POUR-OVER In the late aughts, when coffee became more popular in North America, I was quite sure it wasn't my cup of java. I kept spending money to sample it at coffee shops, but given the cost and flavour, I started to feel like it was all about me. I was able to realise that my ambivalence was simply a result of a major misunderstanding thanks to the well-regarded Japanese business Hario, which creates a variety of affordable devices to brew and serve pour-over coffee. Pour-over coffee, to the uninitiated, resembles a handcrafted version of drip coffee. A…
