  A Brief History of Timekeeping -...

  Predating written language and marching on through human history, the desire for ever-better timekeeping has spurred technological innovation and sparked theories that radically reshaped our understanding of the universe and our place in it. 
   
   
   
  Chad Orzel, a physicist and bestselling author, continues his tradition of demystifying thorny scientific concepts by using the clocks and calendars central to our everyday activities as a jumping-off point to explore the science underlying the ways we keep track of our time. Ancient solstice markers depend on the basic astrophysics of our solar system; mechanical clocks owe their development to Newtonian physics; and the ultra-precise atomic timekeeping that enables GPS hinges on the predictable oddities of quantum mechanics. 
   
    
   
  Along the way, Orzel visits the delicate negotiations involved in Gregorian calendar reform, the intricate and entirely unique system employed by the Maya, and how the problem of synchronizing clocks at different locations ultimately required us to abandon the idea of time as an absolute and universal quantity. Sharp and engaging, A Brief History of Timekeeping is a story not just about the science of sundials, sandglasses, and mechanical clocks, but also the politics of calendars and time zones, the philosophy of measurement, and the nature of space and time itself.

  The Shocking Truth about Online...

  In today’s digital world, privacy is no longer a given—it’s something we must actively fight to protect. Every time we browse the web, use social media, or make online purchases, we leave behind a trail of personal data. This data is collected, analyzed, and often sold without our knowledge. Many people believe that if they have “nothing to hide,” they have nothing to worry about. However, this misconception ignores the real risks of online privacy erosion.  
    
  Companies, governments, and cybercriminals are constantly gathering information about individuals, using it for targeted advertising, surveillance, and even fraud. The websites you visit, the products you search for, and even the time you spend on a page are all tracked to create a detailed profile of who you are. This data is used to manipulate consumer behavior, influence political opinions, and, in some cases, restrict freedoms. Governments argue that surveillance is necessary for national security, but history has shown that mass data collection can lead to severe privacy violations and even oppression.  
    
  Beyond corporations and governments, cybercriminals exploit the vast amount of personal information available online. Data breaches have become more frequent, exposing millions of users to identity theft, fraud, and financial losses. Social engineering scams take advantage of publicly available data, making it easier for criminals to deceive and manipulate individuals. The more our private information is exposed, the more vulnerable we become to digital threats.
