How much it can cost to develop a single drug. The MIT-founded startup ASG has a new biosensor that detects proteins in 15 minutes and could replace slow, pricey ELISA tests used in drug development. Faster tests mean cheaper bioprocessing, more efficient manufacturing and a chance for rare disease drugs that usually get shelved for being “not profitable enough.”

That’s the fine for firing up your gas blower in D.C. That means if you leaf-blow your yard and your neighbor’s patience, you’re also blowing $500 per offense. Gas blowers roared onto the scene in the 1970s, and now they’re getting banned (like in California) for being noisy, dirty and possibly harmful. Need an upgrade? This electric blower ($49.49) has great reviews.

Spies on the road: Washington State’s using motion data from your phone — yep, the same one in your car’s cupholder — to find speeding hot spots. A Michelin-backed system anonymously logs braking and acceleration, then tips off the State Patrol. The upside? Fewer crashes. The downside? Your commute just joined the surveillance state. Not tracked personally, but just enough to ruin your shortcut.
That’s how much brands shelled out to plaster their logos on a fictional Formula 1 team in F1: The Movie. Brad Pitt’s race suit is just fire-resistant, fully monetized and stitched up with sponsors like Mercedes, IWC and Expensify. Basically NASCAR meets Paris Fashion Week, and every logo is paying rent.
📞 Press 1 to scream: This drives me nuts, and now we know it’s on purpose. The customer service endless holds. The loops. The “wrong department” reroutes. Turns out it’s not a glitch, it’s the point (paywall link). These systems are designed to wear you down until you give up and hang up. You’re not crazy. You’re just trapped in the admin-industrial complex.
