At the Formula 1 Las Vegas Grand Prix race, Rich Johnson can hear the distant percussive blats of the F1 cars racing in downtown Las Vegas, but he won’t get to see them all weekend. And he’s fine with that.Although he’s in town specifically for the event, his main focus is ensuring that, in the event of any emergencies, first responders can communicate and coordinate effectively. I spent time with Johnson, the associate director of network disaster recovery for AT&T, to learn more about an important piece of the race weekend that most people won’t — and shouldn’t have to…

Every Thanksgiving in the United States, households prepare 40-odd million turkeys. And I reckon that for over half of those, the best part of the turkey doesn’t even make it to the table. The “best part” is, of course, a hot point of debate. Some people covet a drumstick. Some prefer breast meat.

For years, food magazines have preached the many wonders of Yukon Gold potatoes. They told us Golds were the superior spud—the only potato worth mashing. They made us feel like a fool for even thinking about using another variety. But I’m older and wiser now, and I won’t be falling for the propaganda. I, Jesse Szewczyk, stand proudly before you to declare russet potatoes the superior mashing potato.I know I’m not alone in this thinking. “Russet is the superior f*#%ing potato,” says my Test Kitchen station mate, Shilpa Uskokovic—an individual with exceptional taste and expertise. That’s why this year’s brand-new…

Google will soon use Gemini 3 for more complex queries within Google Search.

He also said Google is thinking about how to improve Search Console reporting for AI Mode and AI Overviews. Clarifications from Google. We spoke to Google about this story and what Heard said.

Jonathon Heard did not say Search Console will definitely have…
