Few foods are more nostalgic for me than soft pretzels. Whether from a shopping mall food court, a county fair, or homemade with family, a perfectly salty, doughy, and buttery pretzel never disappoints. The only thing better than one pretzel, though, is plenty—and luckily, Auntie Anne’s is offering just that. How To Get a Bucket of Pretzels From Auntie Anne’s When you go to Auntie Anne’s, chances are you opt for the Original Pretzel, or maybe a cup of Pretzel Nuggets if you’re sharing. However, there’s no need to skimp when it comes to splitting your nuggs, because Auntie Anne’s…

space as the next place to discover, but hardly ever as the next place to connect with people. Even though rockets are going farther than ever, the gap in access to technology is still very significant here on Earth. In fact, the International Telecommunication Union states that there are still over two billion people without internet access. The majority of them are living in rural areas or in low-income regions where the delivery of services is either through deteriorating infrastructure or there is none at all. In a great number of cases, this is just an inconvenient way of life.…

Slack users can now access Anthropic’s Claude Code directly in Slack by tagging Claude on coding-related messages and threads. The new feature is launching today in beta as a research preview.When Claude is tagged, it will now automatically scan the message to see if it’s a coding task and, if so, route it to Claude Code using the context from the related Slack thread and the code repositories you’ve authenticated in Claude Code. Slack users can also directly tell Claude that a request is a coding task. For instance, you could ask Claude to investigate a bug report you’re discussing…

As someone who sleeps next to a snorer, I know first hand that the problem only gets worse in Winter (lying awake next to the droning sound of snoring is not fun). But why?“Snoring tends to get worse in winter because cold, dry air and indoor heating dry out and irritate the throat and nasal passages, narrowing the airways,” Dr William Lu, medical director at Dreem Health, explained to us.“Seasonal colds, sinus congestion and allergies can also make nasal breathing difficult, and this can cause more mouth breathing, which, in turn, increases snoring.”So how can you stop? Aside from ensuring…

Forgotten cookies are airy, chewy, melty meringues that add variety to any cookie tray.Once mixed, they set overnight in a warm, turned-off oven with no need to monitor.These treats are naturally gluten-free and use up spare egg whites left over from other cooking. If cookies are around, they’re all I can think about. Never in my life have I forgotten about cookies. These adorably bumpy little meringues, however, are “forgotten” because you leave them in a turned-off warm oven overnight to dry out. Forgotten cookies were a staple in community cookbooks from the 1960s to the 1980s. They likely came…

With winter just couple of weeks away and temperatures turning chilly across the US, you may turn to a space heater to stay warm. But if you’re thinking about plugging it into an extension cord or a surge protector, think again. Using an extension cord for any device with a heating element creates a massive safety hazard. High-power appliances like space heaters and air fryers are not meant to be used with power strips or extension cords. As Paul Martinez, owner of Electrified NYC in Brooklyn, puts it, the rule is “no extension cords whatsoever” for any device that heats up or runs constantly.If you’re not sure which…

LLMs like ChatGPT, Gemini, and Claude now sit across search, content generation, and recommendations.   Now, 80% of tech buyers rely on generative AI at least as much as traditional search to research vendors, according to a Responsive survey of B2B buyers.  This effective transfer of trust in AI discovery has become an enablement tool for B2B buyers, quietly deciding which brands get remembered and which get ignored.  And those decisions, once invisible, are now measurable. Previsible has been studying this shift through a new lens called LLM perception drift, the month-over-month change in how AI models reference and position brands…

Running IT without the right tools is like building a house with only a hammer. Sure, you’ll produce…something. It’ll wobble, leak, and haunt your dreams, but congrats—you “built” it.Problem is there are roughly a bazillion IT management platforms, each swearing it’ll transform your operations into a utopia of uptime and joy. Most deliver more sizzle than steak.Zapier EnterpriseAutomation for every team, approved by IT. After hands-on testing with a small mountain of IT management software and chatting with IT teams who live in them daily, I’ve culled the herd to the seven that actually deliver. And wherever you land, remember: Zapier…
