Throwing the Net Wide Leads to a Surge in Members—and More

May 04, 2021

One association got a boost in membership, engagement, and retention by listening to members, tailoring resources to directly meet their needs, and being open to new ideas.

The Health Industry Distributors Association recently announced a 21 percent surge in corporate members, noting that it is exceeding national benchmarks for trade association member renewal rates. The growth is broad-based, with new members from companies of all sizes.

How did HIDA do it? An expanded membership model, ramped up engagement, and proactive, responsive communications were key.

HIDA’s members are distributors of medical products—including personal protective equipment— to hospitals, nursing homes, and ...

Andrew Garfield says he’s definitely not in ‘Spider-Man: No Way Home’

May 04, 2021

Spider-Man: No Way Home

Marvel has done an admirable job keeping the plots of its movies and shows secret over the years, but one upcoming movie has been the subject of as many leaks as we can remember for any Marvel project. Back in February, Marvel officially confirmed that the title of the next Spider-Man solo movie would be Spider-Man: No Way Home. Technically, that's all that Marvel has said about the third Spider-Man movie, but a series of leaks over the past several months have potentially spoiled the key twist that will set No Way Home apart.

Here’s what NASA wants its Mars helicopter to do next

May 04, 2021

mars helicopter

NASA has already made history with its Mars rover Ingenuity. The chopper's first flight proved that powered aircraft are viable on Mars, while its second and third flights demonstrated that aerial drones could easily travel without crashing. Its fourth flight will be designed to show that a similar aircraft could potentially be used to map out regions of the surface and provide detailed observations over a wide area. These are more than enough to call Ingenuity a success, and NASA is already looking to the future.

In a new blog poston NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory site, the group ...

The Galaxy Z Fold 3 and Galaxy Z Flip 3 are Samsung’s next foldable phones, which are reportedly going to launch as soon as July. The phones will take the place of the Galaxy Note 21, which Samsung decided to skip this year. The official reason is the chip shortage which is currently impacting various industries. But reports preceding the component crisis suggested that Samsung wanted to discontinue the Note series anyway. The lack of Note 21 rumors was further evidence that Samsung wouldn't be making the phone this year. By comparison, the rate at which Samsung foldable rumors ...

These chunky tools are softer than oil pastels, so using them feels more like painting than drawing. And, unlike oil pastels, oil sticks will dry completely with time. Oil sticks are great to try out if oil paint strikes you as an intimidating medium. Easier to mix and control, they can be used to create effects similar to ...

It’s unknown when these changes occurred, but based on a snapshot of Sony’s camera listing page via Wayback Machine, the listings have been gone since at least April 28, 2021.

May 04, 2021

Turkish Airlines became one of the first major carriers to post a profit this year after a boost in freight revenues helped it ride out a continuing passenger slump triggered by the coronavirus crisis.

The Istanbul-based company said it posted first-quarter net income of $61 million, or 438 million liras, even as sales declined, reversing a year-earlier loss and beating analyst estimates.

The carrier tapped into demand for cargo space that has been in short supply during the pandemic with fewer flights offering capacity in the holds of passenger aircraft. Foreign-exchange and tax gains also buoyed earnings, while operating ...

Best Practices: Ali Banisadr Looks to History to Create Abstractions for Today

May 04, 2021

Perched on a table next to curled tubes of paint and crusty brushes in Ali Banisadr’s homey Brooklyn studio was a copy of an epic poem that, over its thousands of years of history, has been told and retold—including by Banisadr himself. “My wife complains that I can’t stop talking about Gilgamesh,” the artist said, with a laugh, about a storied Mesopotamian text that has consumed him. “I like the idea of something ancient that speaks to our time. I get visions in my head—of the places, the characters, the atmosphere. It just keeps giving.”

Since 2018, an almost endless series of attacks broadly known as Spectre has kept Intel and AMD scrambling to develop defenses to mitigate vulnerabilities that allow malware to pluck passwords and other sensitive information directly out of silicon. Now, researchers say they’ve devised a new attack that breaks most—if not all—of those on-chip defenses.

Spectre got its name for its abuse of speculative execution, a feature in virtually all modern CPUs that predicts the future instructions the CPUs might receive and then follows a path that the instructions are likely to follow. By using code ...

U.S. Government Seeks Forfeiture of Roman Statue That Was Allegedly En Route to Kim Kardashian

It's now well-established that bats can develop a mental picture of their environment using echolocation. But we're still figuring out what that means—how bats take the echoes of their own vocalizations and use them to figure out the locations of objects.

In a paper released today, researchers provide evidence that bats engage in echolocation in part because they're born with an innate sense of the speed of sound. How did the researchers study this phenomenon? By raising bats in a helium-rich atmosphere, where the lower-density air produces an increase in the speed ...

The Solar Industry’s Supply Chain Problems

May 04, 2021

by Paula Mints

The solar industry has a supply chain problem – no, not just the current polysilicon and glass constraints. Solar wafer, ingot, cell, and module manufacturing are concentrated in China and South East Asia, leaving buyers outside these areas vulnerable to supply chain shocks.

Countries in this region have lower labor costs, lower energy costs, and higher incentives and subsidies for manufacturers. In China, manufacturing is supported (and controlled) by the central government.

Manufacturers in China, who have expanded into South East Asia, can make do with lower
