Today is Tuesday, March 1, 2016. Get your own Matrix. An Everything Bagel might be your match. Also, cute raccoons.
Your Own Matrix
Do you wish you could upload information to your brain in seconds?
Scientists have developed a way of amplifying learning in a way that almost mimics the methods used in The Matrix. In the film, Neo has a range of kung-fu skills ‘uploaded’ directly into his brain in just a few seconds. At the HRL Information and System Sciences Laboratory in California, experts have figured out how to do that, but on a lesser scale. By studying electric signals in the brain of a trained pilot, and feeding that data into an unskilled person through a electric scalp-cap, novices were able to learn the task 33 percent better than the placebo group.
Everything Bagels on Tinder
A man pretending to be a 24-year-old everything bagel on Tinder proved that food is truly the way to anyone’s heart by getting more than 1,000 matches. His Tinder profile, EverythingBagel, offers a simple and romantic bio: “I can be your [sic] everything.”
The man behind the account is 25-years-old and single in real life. He doesn’t have his own Tinder account.
On occasion, he does end up revealing his true identity to girls when the conversation is interesting enough to do away with the disguise. For now, EverythingBagel is content to let his bagel avatar lead the way. “Even if I wanted to meet someone from the Internet, I feel like I probably have a better chance as the bagel,” he told Motherboard. “It breaks the ice.”
