Billie Eilish dropped an announcement on Instagram Wednesday, and she’s clearly in no hurry to share the details. The project is called “Eilish Intense,” and the caption says it in one line: “everything you love about the original Eilish, INTENSIFIED.” For a release date, she offered one word: “SOOOON.” All caps. Plus a string of emoji that aren’t helping anyone figure out what’s going on. By Wednesday, the post had pulled nearly 970,000 likes. That’s close to a million people responding to a name and a tagline with nothing else attached. For an announcement with almost no information, the response…

Over the last decade, public health has gone digital. There are new systems for records, reporting, and analytics. But here’s the reality: tools like electronic health records, lab systems, immunization databases, emergency response platforms, and countless isolated spreadsheets often operate in isolation. Are you noticing the pattern? Few systems are designed to easily share or reuse information. As a result, instant insights prove uncommon. Important data often gets trapped in silos, slowing down public health leaders and making it harder to collaborate during emergencies. Covid-19 made these gaps impossible to ignore.

Vital Signals founder Tom Moss thinks the wearables industry is too focused on wellness over health. It was this that prompted him to create the Signal Ring, which arrives later this year, as something of a corrective. Moss says it’s not a device for quantifying your step count, but a tool to hopefully keep you out of the ER. Especially if, like Moss himself, you live with hypertension or another cardiac issue that could spill over into something life threatening. Moss explains, a few years ago, he was taken to hospital with a systolic blood pressure reading of 250 mmHg.…

I was rolling the living room ceiling and misjudged the angle. A line of white latex paint crossed the front of my shirt before I could react. I did what seemed obvious: grabbed a wet cloth and blotted at it. The paint smeared sideways. I ran it under the tap. It faded slightly. I threw the shirt in the wash. It came out with a faint but permanent white shadow I still have not fully cleared. The mistake was not the timing. I acted immediately. The mistake was not knowing what the paint was made of and what that meant…
