There’s little reason to pay top dollar for a smartphone. These iPhones and Android devices—ranging from $100 to $800—stood up to WIRED’s testing.

“Detecting a neutrino is like looking for a needle in a haystack,” says Juan Carlos Díaz Vélez, who breaks down why researchers are looking for the cosmic particles under the Antarctic ice.

The Center for Humane Technology helped spark a movement against excessive screen time, but internal tensions over its direction and strategy have simmered for years, sources tell WIRED.

From data centers to Elon Musk funding to the AI lobby, the 2026 midterms are the most WIRED elections yet. These are the candidates we're following closely.

We dropped them, tossed them in bags, and cleaned their fiddly lids. Here are the ones we recommend.

Henri Kagan and Kensō Soai designed chemical reactions producing only one of the two mirror-image forms of a molecule—an important finding for the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and other biological substances.

WIRED has partnered with Neal Agarwal of Neal.fun to create a visualization of Elon Musk’s massive wealth. Here’s how it came together.

What’s it like to be the richest man in the world? Find out for yourself.

Cupertino brings the tech backlash to the CBS procedural - an initially awkward combination, but with rewarding results. The show starts off just slightly unsure, but quickly figures out what to do with these strange times, creating fictionalized dupes of the Zizians, Polymarket, Jeff Bezos' looksmaxxing obsession, OpenAI stealing Scarlett Johansson's voice, and the fight […]

After the release of HTTP/0.9 the Web didn't stay in the same state for too long, the team behind the HTTP initiative was already looking for more; this can be evidenced in a mailing list for discussing the Web , when Jean-François Groff, member of the team behind HTTP said: Your impression may come from the fact that in the current implementation, as HTTP can only return HTML documents, the distinction between them is not clear. The new phase of HTTP that we are currently designing will...

Most database load tests I have seen run one or two queries in a loop. That tells you how fast those queries are when nothing else is happening. It does not tell you what your database does on a normal Tuesday, when one lookup is called 120,000 times an hour, a customer listing 45,000 times and a report 400 times, all competing for the same buffer cache, the same connections and the same locks. The good news: your database already knows that profile. This post shows how to export it and turn ...

When you talk to ChatGPT or Claude, should it remember your earlier conversations? One camp says yes: without memory the AI meets you from scratch every time. The other says no: modern models can read hundreds of pages at once, so just give them the whole chat history. I build an open-source memory layer for AI assistants ( Aura Memory ), so I had a reason to want the first camp to win. Instead of arguing, I spent a week testing it. I used my own real chats with AI coding assistants and pu...

TL;DR Reverted a costly caching strategy in the ELI business project and replaced it with a growth‑oriented cache that increased reads from 0 to >2 000. Built an ephemeris API ( geo.py , birthtime.py ) to expose star data for Satya’s astrology front‑end. Fixed UI overflow in Living Books and tuned ElevenLabs voice tiers for a more natural narration. Started a new open‑source cloud repo, HyperCloud, with a Flask login and a React dashboard prototype. Day closed with a clear list...
