Oculus Co Founder Palmer Luckey Leaving Company

This Friday will be the entrepreneur’s last day with the company, after which Facebook will move on without him. Despite his young age, Luckey leaves behind a significant legacy: the industrious tech enthusiast had gotten his start by working on hardware in his parent’s garage, befriending legendary game developer John Carmack, and campaigning a highly successful Kickstarter to get the Oculus Rift funded. Things evidently remained on the up-and-up after that, as Palmer eventually sold his company to Facebook for a hefty $2 billion....

Odds On The Greenhouse

They didn’t blow. So much for mathematical modeling. No wonder that the scientists who most doubt the threat of climate change due to the greenhouse effect are meteorologists. If they can’t get it right 72 or even 24 hours ahead, how can anyone forecast climate 100 years ahead? Coal, oil and auto companies have long played up the unreliability of climate forecasts, which say that once the atmosphere contains twice as much carbon dioxide as it did in 1870, the world will be 1....

Oh Give Me A Home Where The Monitors Roam

The Roses’ home, with its brick exterior, doesn’t look like the kind of place George Jetson would hang his space helmet–but it does provide some down-to-earth insights into the way our living areas are likely to evolve in the 21st century. Besides being automated, it’s a ““casual, fun house,’’ says Rose, and, in that respect, it’s the shape of things to come. The rise of the so-called great room, a combined space that replaces the traditional living, dining and family rooms, has been one of the most noticeable shifts in our architectural preferences over the past decade or so–and is likely to persist....

Ohio Gop Rep. Steve Stivers Supports 1400 Stimulus Check Provided You Get Covid Vaccine

Representative Steve Stivers of Ohio told Yahoo Finance Live earlier this week, “I hope the administration will look at that option because we actually buy something with our $1,400 — and that’s herd immunity.” Biden, who was sworn into office on Wednesday, is pushing for a $1.9 trillion emergency relief package to tackle the twin crises of the coronavirus pandemic and resulting economic downturn. The package would send an additional $1,400 stimulus check to qualifying Americans, extend the child tax credit, provide state and local governments with $350 billion in aid, increase the federal minimum wage to $15 per hour and extend the eviction and foreclosure moratoriums until the end of September....
