While it may comprise half of the restaurant’s name, cheesecake isn’t the only fan-favorite menu item available at The Cheesecake Factory. With pages upon pages of delicious entrées, iconic appetizers, and of course, desserts to choose from, it’s no secret that the chain restaurant’s ever-growing menu isn’t just meme-able, but packed with plenty of great eats. Hundreds of meal options aside, one of the best items The Cheesecake Factory has to offer isn’t even on the menu—it’s the free bread. And now, you don’t even have to leave your house to enjoy The Cheesecake Factory’s brown bread, since the beloved…

Why Make This This pasta bake comes together with just five easy-to-find, budget-friendly ingredients.Swapping meat for veggies or trying different cheeses lets you customize the dish every time. Many of the early dates with my husband involved a trip to the grocery store. It wasn’t like a romantic movie where the stars leave the store with a wrinkle-free brown bag full of the best food and a bottle of fancy cabernet sauvignon. We were broke college grads buying generic foods on sale and maybe a fresh tomato. We managed to make some decent meals. One of the biggest successes of…

Apple is getting serious about succession planning, according to a new report in The Financial Times. The company’s board and senior executives are reportedly preparing for the possibility that Tim Cook could step down as CEO as soon as early next year. This would come after Apple’s earnings report in late January, giving the new leadership team time to settle into their roles before Apple’s big events like the Worldwide Developers Conference in June. The 65-year-old Cook has been Apple’s chief executive since Steve Jobs resigned in 2011; he’s now served as CEO for longer than Jobs. Under his leadership,…

If you like playing daily word games like Wordle, then Hurdle is a great game to add to your routine. There are five rounds to the game. The first round sees you trying to guess the word, with correct, misplaced, and incorrect letters shown in each guess. If you guess the correct answer, it’ll take you to the next hurdle, providing the answer to the last hurdle as your first guess. This can give you several clues or none, depending on the words. For the final hurdle, every correct answer from previous hurdles is shown, with correct and misplaced letters…

What we love: There are a lot of similarities between the Amazon Basics scale and our overall winner. The Amazon scale has the same two-button setup, a similar elevated weighing platform that makes it easy to see the display, and the same 11-lb. maximum capacity. It’s made of plastic with a stainless-steel platform that’s easy to wipe down and is just a touch larger than the Escali at seven inches across.In testing, we were impressed by the Amazon scale’s accuracy, considering its price point. It responded to weight addition or removal almost as quickly as the Escali and provided an…

how neural networks learned. Train them, watch the loss go down, save checkpoints every epoch. Standard workflow. Then I measured training dynamics at 5-step intervals instead of epoch-level, and everything I thought I knew fell apart. The question that started this journey: Does a neural network’s capacity expand during training, or is it fixed from initialization? Until 2019, we all assumed the answer was obvious—parameters are fixed, so capacity must be fixed too. But Ansuini et al. discovered something that shouldn’t be possible: the effective representational dimensionality increases during training. Yang et al. confirmed it in 2024. This changes everything.…

If you’re one of the 80% of adults who, according to a recent CNET survey, are completely stressed out by their sky-high utility bills, stop blaming the power company for a second and look at your outlets. You’re probably getting robbed blind by your own appliances.You might think your TV, coffee maker and game console are “off,” but you’re wrong. They’re just sitting there, silently sucking power 24/7. It’s called “phantom load,” and these little energy vampires are adding a very real, very stupid cost to your bill every single month.So, is the “effort” of unplugging them actually worth it? We’ll…

Rivian’s electric mobility spinoff Also announced a $3,500 starting price for its first e-bike called the TM-B. The startup unveiled the shapeshifting e-bike last month, with options for a limited Launch edition, a Performance version or a base model. During the reveal, Also said both the Launch and Performance TM-B models would start at $4,500, but only hinted at the base model’s price tag being less than $4,000.While the base model TM-B is more than $1,000 cheaper than the other choices, it comes with several compromises, like a lower max range of 60 miles, a weaker 5x power assist, coil…
