  • Why do web addresses start with www?

    Why do web addresses start with www?
    May 24 2026
    You might be surprised to learn that the famous “www” in website addresses didn’t originate in Silicon Valley or New York, but at the European Organisation for Nuclear Research, known as CERN for short, which is situated on the French-Swiss border close to Geneva. It was 1989 when British computer scientist Tim Berners-Lee came up with the idea for a hypertext system. Essentially, it was a way to connect different pieces of data through links, creating something like a giant web that would work via the internet. Aren’t internet and web the same thing? What about the other parts of a web address then, like https or “.com” at the end? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!

  • Is sex without feelings ever a good idea?

    Is sex without feelings ever a good idea?
    May 23 2026
    With the rise of dating apps, it seems more common to have sex without being in love. Sex for sex's sake, promises to be mindless and commitment-free. In short: pleasure without the risk of pain, but this might not be the whole story. Experts suggest that this trend reflects a deeper change in society. The separation of sex from love and emotional attachment is part of a broader societal shift towards consumerism and individual pleasure. Why are people tempted by a quick fling? Is it even possible to detach your body from your feelings? So, by cutting ourselves off from feelings, do we deprive ourselves of some of the pleasure? Should we be wary of this kind of behavior?

  • What is chemical submission?

    What is chemical submission?
    May 23 2026
    You may have seen headlines in recent weeks about a deeply shocking French court case. A man has admitted drugging his wife with powerful sedatives over a period of a decade and inviting as many as 80 local men to rape her during that time. Due to the effects of the drugs she had been subjected to, the woman Gisèle Pélicot, had no idea of what was happening to her. The case has led to increased awareness of chemical submission, which is a type of drug-facilitated crime. It’s defined by the Spanish Journal of Legal Medicine as “the use of chemical substances to manipulate the will of a person, producing incapacity or unconsciousness that facilitates criminal action.” Is that like spiking drinks with GHB? How should I respond if I witness or suspect chemical submission? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!

  • Is breakfast really the most important meal of the day?

    Is breakfast really the most important meal of the day?
    May 23 2026
    You may well have been told that breakfast is the most important meal of the day, so you shouldn’t skip it. But did you know that prior to the industrial revolution, all people would eat for breakfast was leftovers from the previous day, typically meat and eggs. Even then that was only if they were hungry. Otherwise they wouldn’t eat at all. These days, a typical breakfast in the Western world is something sweet, like a bowl of cereal, toast with jam or a pastry. Habits really began to change after the industrial revolution, which saw rural populations moving to cities, and our habits begin to change. How did we get from breakfast being optional to being the most important meal of the day? Aren’t cereals full of sugar these days? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!

  • What is ecological debt?

    What is ecological debt?
    May 22 2026
    Let’s take a moment to consider a concept which highlights both the scale of the climate crisis and inequalities between different areas of the world. Discussions around ecological debt are closely linked to that of overshoot and the overuse of planet Earth's resources. Every year we continue to consume too many resources, and pollute the planet. If we consider that as mounting ecological debt, let’s say we’re now paying interest. It takes the form of extreme weather events, food shortages, the disappearance of other species, unremedied environmental degradation and the buildup of CO2 in the atmosphere. All this ecological debt is carried forward to future generations. Is there another definition of ecological debt then? Is there a division between North and South?
