When I used to have wires that made me overeat, I didn’t understand why I could be so sensible about food at times, yet at other times, be completely out of control. I even felt guilty because I “knew” what I should eat, but couldn’t eat that way.Neuroscience has an answer: circuit speed.All behavior is the tail end of a neural circuit, which is a series of activations of neurons.

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is the third leading cause of death in the United States, but it can be totally invisible at times. It can totally change your life without anyone around understanding why you need to gasp for breath in the grocery store or struggle to take your dog to the curb.

It was halftime of college football’s most anticipated season opener in ages, a game that pitted the top-ranked Longhorns against third-ranked Ohio State in a rematch of last year’s College Football Playoff semifinal, and the two leading figures in the burnt orange brain trust were in disarray.

The big question mark hanging over Tuesday’s antitrust ruling was about Google’s ownership of Chrome, and Judge Amit Mehta decided against forcing a sale of the world’s most popular browser. The Justice Department really wanted Google to sell Chrome, arguing it gives the company an unfair advantage in search. They had a point, given almost 40% of Google’s U.S. search traffic flows through Chrome. But Mehta called a forced sale “incredibly messy and highly risky,” reports The Verge. What Google actually has to change The ruling isn’t exactly a full win for Google, though. It says that the company can…
