• Porygon-Z is the weirdest card to hit Pokmon TCG Pocket
    www.polygon.com
    The release of the Space-Time Smackdown expansion for Pokmon TCG Pocket has resulted in one of the most diverse metas in the game to date. Some people opt for decks based on heavy hitters like Palkia ex whereas others might try to chip away at opponents with cards like Darkrai ex. Those cards are all good and swell, but players have now found the ultimate deck to troll other players: the Porygon-Z deck.Porygon-Z is perhaps one of the quirkiest cards to come to Pokmon TCG Pocket since its release. Lets explain why.Why Porygon-Z is suddenly popular in Pokmon TCG PocketPorygon-Z is a colorless-type Pokmon with 140 HP and a retreat cost of two energy. This bad boy has one attack, Buggy Beam. It requires three energy to use and it deals 80 damage. But heres where things get fun: Buggy Beam has a devious additional effect that randomly changes the type of energy your opponent gets the next turn.Its annoying in every sense of the word. It can render you basically useless if dont have any other cards, like the trainer card Misty, to generate additional energy beyond the one you get each turn. At its worst, it will stall you and force you to play several turns of the game, spin the wheel on the energy type.At its best, it will briskly zip and zap its way through all your energy-needing Pokmon at 80 HP damage a pop.Porygon-Zs unparalleled ability to troll does come at a price, though. Pulling up a Porygon-Z switch requires a lot of prior setup. Buggy Beam needs three energy and you to draw and youll need to evolve it from Porygon Porygon2 first. Additionally, it only has 140 HP which puts it at risk to loads of common Stage 1 Pokmon that could clean it up in a couple of turns if Porygon-Z is out for too long. If you do want to run it, youll have to compliment it with other cards like Dialga ex and plenty of support Pokmon Tool cards like Giant Cape.But hey, PorygonZ isnt the strongest deck in town its a lifestyle. Sometimes, the best deck isnt the one that always wins, but the one that allows you to have fun and troll randoms online.

  • Why you should cultivate meaning in your lifeand how
    www.fastcompany.com
    Steven Heine is a professor of social and cultural psychology at the University of British Columbia. He is the author ofCultural Psychology, the top-selling book in the field. His research has been featured inThe New York Times,Washington Post,Guardian,Newsweek, andNew Scientist, among other publications.Whats the big idea?A lot of people right now feel lost, anxious, and despaired. During these dark times, preserving a sense of meaning in our lives is vital. Fortunately, meaning can be cultivated and ground us when life feels turbulent. The emerging field of existential psychology is refining practices for tuning in to the worth, purpose, and importance of your life.Below, Steven shares five key insights from his new book,Start Making Sense: How Existential Psychology Can Help Us Build Meaningful Lives in Absurd Times.Listen to the audio versionread by Steven himselfin the Next Big Idea App.1. Meaning in life helps protect against anxiety.Everyone seems on edge these days. The world is going through somewhat of a mental health crisis as rates of anxiety, depression, and deaths of despair have jumped sharply in many countries. How can we cope with these dark times?The sense of leading a meaningful life protects us from anxiety and uncertainty. When people feel that their lives are meaningful, a sense of purpose guides them, and their life makes sense. They feel that what they do matters and can make a difference in the world. People who feel their lives are meaningful can stand strong in the face of the slings and arrows thrown at them by these uncertain times. They enjoy greater well-being and fare better in coping with their anxieties.The emerging field of existential psychology has provided evidence-based answers to what makes a life meaningful. Ultimately, meaning is about connections, and a meaningful life isrichly connected. For example,interpersonal connectionsplay a key role because people feel that their lives are more meaningful when they spend time with their closest relationships, especially when taking on a caretaker role. People also feel more meaningful when they are part of acommunitybecause it gives them a sense of belongingness and identity. Peoples connections to theirworkcan also provide a sense of purpose and mastery. And people feel meaningful when their lives are connected to thetranscendent realm, feeling that they are part of something much larger than the material world.When peoples lives are sufficiently connected in these domains, they areexistentially grounded. Their lives make sense, they feel a sense of purpose in what they do, and they feel that their lives matter in the grand scheme of things. This mindset helps people thrive during trying times.2. We tell stories to make sense of life.Our lives only feel meaningful when they seem to make sense. But the key challenge is that life often doesnt seem coherent. For example, we may seem like quite different people in different situations. We might act silly with friends, but on our daily commute, we may be short-tempered, and then at work, we become ambitious and responsible. Which persona is the real self?Or we might struggle to identify a common thread connecting the different chapters of our lives. We might realize that the person we were in high school shares little in common with how we now think of ourselves. How can we weave all the different threads of our self together? We accomplish this by tellingstories.We create stories with our self as the central character, going on a journey where we confront all the experiences and challenges in our lives. These stories help us organize our understanding of who we are, what we are doing, and why we are doing it. It lays the foundation of self.Stories integrate those inconsistent facets of ourselves because they allow us to focus on particular episodes and edit out parts that dont quite fit.Importantly, the stories we tell are not typically literal accounts of what happened butimprovisedtellings that make our lives feel sensible. Stories integrate those inconsistent facets of ourselves because they allow us to focus on particular episodes and edit out parts that dont quite fit. When we tell our stories well, we feel that our lives make sense.While each story we tell about ourselves is unique in certain respects, it often shares features in common with stories told by others. Many of our stories share common themes, such asredemption, when our story highlights how we conquered a challenge, or a theme ofcontamination, when our story explains how our life suddenly went off a cliff.Also, our stories rest upon simple but extremely importantpremisesthat guide how we experience the events in our lives. Our stories might be built around key premises such as I am good or People get what they deserve. These premises serve as a lens through which we see how our life unfolds. Part of leading a meaningful life is learning how to narrate the events in our lives through a compelling and sensible story.3. When meaning is threatened, we seek to rebuild it.A key challenge with leading a meaningful life is that things often dont feel meaningful. Feelings of meaning ebb and flow like the tide. But we have a psychological need to feel that things are meaningful. When things feel meaningless, we become especially motivated to make things seem meaningful again. Its akin to feeling hungry when we havent had enough food. Likewise, our brains signal to us when our lives arent sufficiently meaningful.Research points to our brains having asense-making systemthat strives to keep things feeling meaningful. When things feel meaningless, our brains detect a signal indicating a lack of sufficient meaning, and we are prepared to try to regain a sense of meaning. Its a homeostatic system, much like your thermostat at home, that only becomes triggered when meaning is insufficient. This is all occurring beneath our awareness.There are different ways to rebuild a sense of meaning. Much research finds that people feel more meaningful after engaging in nostalgic reflections. Remembering how we were in past chapters of our life stories provides us with a better appreciation for how we became the person we are now, boosting our sense of meaning.We are most likely to drift off in a nostalgic reverie precisely when we feel that life is unsatisfyingly low in meaning. For example, our lives feel more meaningless when we are lonely or bored. When a sense of meaning is hard to come by, we make unconscious efforts to boost meaning. So, we often turn to memories in an effort to regain an existential footing. We may play songs from the soundtrack of our youth or flip through a photo album. Our sense-making system was tripped, and nostalgic reflections are one way to regain a sense of meaning.I dont think its a coincidence that since the 2010s, the world has undergone a nostalgia boom. Movie theatres are playing remakes of films that were created decades earlier. New television series set in previous decades are discussed as much for their plots as they are for how they nailed the dcor, fashion, and music of those times. During this anxious period, weve felt a collective need for meaning, and the world has been turning to the past to gain the meaning-boosting effects of nostalgia.4. Life struggles can provide greater meaning.Feeling meaningful and feeling happy share much in common. However, there is more to meaning in life than positive feelings. We can learn a lot by focusing on how meaning isdistinctfrom happiness.Jean-Paul Sartre perceptively observed that human life begins on the far side of despair, and much research supports this contention. One study explored the characteristics of people with more meaningful lives and found that they reported morenegative life experiences, even though these experiences came with a cost to happiness. Our struggles can often feel meaningful.Likewise, we can see this relation when consideringwheremeaningful lives are commonly found. Curiously, you are more likely to find them where life is harder. On average, the poorer a country, the more meaningful its citizens report their lives to be. The comfort and ease that people living in wealthier countries can enjoy appear to come at an existential cost: it often doesnt provide the struggles that people rely on to build resilience and meaning.Peoples spiritual lives often become deeper after a trauma.Friedrich Nietzsche proclaimed, That which does not kill me makes me stronger. Research finds that people often do rise to the challenges that life throws at them. The most common reaction to trauma is post-traumatic growth. People make more meaning in the aftermath of trauma because their relationships often become closer, as they usually receive a great deal of social support. It is also common for people to develop a new sense of purpose as they re-evaluate their lives, and they often become more altruistic toward others who have experienced tragedies. People also tend to grow because they discover that they had inner strengths that they hadnt realized. In addition, peoples spiritual lives often become deeper after a trauma. And last, the realization that so much can be lost in an instant makes survivors of trauma more appreciative of what they still have. They no longer take their lives for granted.We can never lead a life without suffering, and our struggles certainly come with a cost to happiness. But it is reassuring that difficult times can help make our lives more meaningful.5. Meaning in life can be cultivated.Meaning in our lives can be nurtured. We are not born with a certain amount of meaning; meaning can be cultivated, just like any other ability.First, there are existential exercises that provide temporary boosts to feelings of meaning, which can be invaluable for helping us get out of a rut. I think of these as the existential equivalent of a shot of espresso. One simple exercise helps people feel existentiallygroundeda clear understanding of who they are and what they stand for. People will feel more grounded after reflecting upon their most important values. Simply writing a brief paragraph about your most important values puts you in a better position to respond with greater resilience to challenges.A second way to cultivate a more meaningful life is to examine your lifes foundations for meaning: our connections, especially with closest relationships, with communities, with work, and with a transcendent realm. I encourage you to conduct an existential audit of yourself to evaluate how deeply connected you are in these domains and identify where you have the most room for growth. Hardly anyone is richly connected in all these domains, but meaning is fungible. That is, the meaning you derive from one domain of connections can make up for a shortfall of meaning in another domain. Its as though we can pay for the meaning in our lives from different accounts.Remember that our life stories tie together the threads of our lives and provide a sense of coherence, purpose, and importance. We cannot change the past, but this doesnt mean that our life stories are carved in stone. As the author Gabriel Garca Mrquez put it, What matters in life is not what happens to you but what you remember and how you remember it. Some ways of telling a life story provide more meaning than other ways, and you would likely benefit from reflecting on your own life story in a different way.One of the most successful templates for stories, which the mythologist Joseph Campbell calls the Heros Journey, focuses on an individual conquering difficult challenges with a band of allies. When people are instructed to think of their own lives in terms of the individual elements from the Heros Journey template, they come to feel that their lives are more meaningful. If you try to identify your transformations, allies youve relied on, or seemingly insurmountable quests, you too can likely learn how to reflect on your life in a more constructive, meaningful way.Thisarticleoriginally appeared inNext Big Idea Clubmagazine and is reprinted with permission.

  • How to reclaim hours by cutting out the biggest time sucks of your workday
    www.fastcompany.com
    Theres one scarce resource that nearly everyone wishes they had more of: time. It always seems like there are more things to do than hours in the day. Many ways to squeeze more productivity out of your workday may leave you feeling burned out. But there are ways to trim the time spent on many aspects of life that will leave you with at least a little more wiggle room.Here are a few strategies:Create a guide to reduce interruptionsIf you often lose hours responding to emails and Slack messages asking different versions of the same questions, create an FAQ document with the answers all in one place. If you want to take it one step further, you can follow the lead of former Google vice president and Stripe COO Claire Hughes-Johnson, who created a Working with Claire guide.Its basically a reference manual to instruct people you work with. Fast Company writer Stephanie Vozza, explains: In her guide, Hughes-Johnson sets expectations, such as how to share information with her, and the amount of time she needs to send a response. It also includes her preferences, styles, and approaches, as well as alternative sources for help when employees are in a pinch and cant move forward.Trim all your meetings by at least 10 minutesYes, many people think all meetings are a waste of time. And while some companies have taken the extreme approach of eliminating all recurring meetings, many meetings are necessary and help build and maintain relationships.However, very few of us fully pay attention for the entire length of a meetingespecially remote meetings. In fact, LiveCareer found that 9% of people start losing focus in less than 10 minutes into a meeting, while 43% said they lasted 20 to 30 minutes. Only 4% of people said they stayed focused for an hour or more.Knowing that attention (and therefore usefulness) drops off after 20 minutes, trim the meetings you have control over. Half-hour meetings become 20 minutes, hour-long meetings become 40 minutes, and by the end of the week youve reclaimed several hours.Do it now or delegate itTo-do lists are a great productivity and organization tool, but we all waste a lot of time accumulating and then coming back to small tasks that end up eating up more time than theyre worth.Vladislav Podolyako, founder and CEO of Folderly, uses what he calls the Touch it Once (TIO) principle. Heres how it works for him: If I can do a task in 10 minutes or less, I do it right away. If not, I either delegate it to someone else or set it aside for at least a week.Podolyako uses emails as a perfect example, explaining that many of the emails he receives require quick decisions. If Im just bcc-ed, usually my action is no action at all. If I know someone who knows an answer better, I forward [the] email. He adds that he saves time by focusing on being helpful instead of crafting a beautiful-looking but useless email.

  • 10 Smart Home Technologies to Transform Your Interior for a Balanced Living Space
    www.yankodesign.com
    As a design observer tracking the evolution of living spaces, Ive witnessed smart home technology transform from a luxury add-on to the very backbone of contemporary interior design. Todays sophisticated interiors demand an artful fusion of connectivity and aesthetics, where every smart device serves both form and function. The challenge lies not in merely incorporating technology, but in orchestrating an environment where it enhances rather than dominates the design narrative.The numbers tell a compelling story: the global smart home market is projected to reach $622.59 billion by 2026, reflecting our collective shift toward intelligent living spaces. This explosive growth has catalyzed a design revolution, pushing manufacturers and designers to reimagine everyday objects as sophisticated tech-integrated elements. The result? A new design language where thermostats become wall sculptures, speakers masquerade as decorative objects, and lighting systems transform into architectural features.Here are 10 sophisticated approaches to weaving smart technology into your interior design, ensuring your space remains both cutting-edge and aesthetically refined:1. Choose Sleek DesignsTodays home automation devices have evolved beyond mere functionality, embracing minimalist aesthetics that complement contemporary interiors. Leading manufacturers like Google, Apple, and Samsung now prioritize design-forward approaches, offering devices in carefully curated finishes from matte neutrals to brushed metallics. When selecting smart gadgets, consider pieces that feature clean lines, sophisticated silhouettes, and thoughtful details think of them as technological sculptures that enhance rather than disrupt your carefully curated space.The evolution of smart home aesthetics reflects a broader shift in consumer preferences toward minimalist design. Manufacturers now prioritize form alongside function, creating devices that complement rather than compete with existing dcor. This trend is particularly evident in premium smart home brands, where devices often feature interchangeable covers, customizable displays, and architectural finishes that align with contemporary design principles.The VISIO Wi-Fi camera exemplifies this approach with its distinctive eye-shaped design that emphasizes transparency. Unlike conventional security cameras, it physically disconnects from its base when inactive, providing clear visual confirmation of its status.2. Incorporate Built-in TechnologyThe future of smart home integration lies in invisibility through thoughtful architecture. Forward-thinking designers are reimagining traditional elements from kitchen cabinetry to bathroom mirrors as sophisticated tech hubs with built-in charging ports, hidden speakers, and concealed wiring channels. This architectural approach to technology integration allows smart thermostats, doorbells, and control panels to disappear into walls and surfaces, maintaining clean sight lines while delivering seamless functionality throughout the space.The concept of integrated technology extends beyond simple device placement. Modern construction increasingly includes dedicated smart home infrastructure during the building phase. This includes pre-wired networks, hidden equipment rooms, and modular wall systems designed specifically for future technology upgrades. Such forward-thinking design ensures homes remain adaptable to technological advances while maintaining their aesthetic integrity.The Equinox smart grow light demonstrates effective built-in technology, mimicking natural sunlight patterns. Its adjustable LEDs simulate sunrise and sunset, controlled via smartphone app or manual dials, adapting to specific plant needs through customizable brightness and color temperature settings.3. Coordinate ColorsThe art of integrating smart devices into your color palette requires a sophisticated understanding of finish psychology. While matte blacks disappear into shadowed corners and glossy whites pop against darker walls, the true masters of smart home design are exploring beyond this binary. Todays premium devices offer finishes ranging from champagne gold to graphite gray, with some manufacturers even introducing texture-rich surfaces that catch light differently throughout the day, ensuring harmony with both modern minimalist and richly layered interiors.The psychology of color matching in smart home design has become increasingly sophisticated. Manufacturers now offer seasonal collections and limited-edition finishes that align with interior design trends. Some devices even feature adaptive surfaces that can change color temperature or finish based on ambient lighting conditions, ensuring they remain visually harmonious throughout the day.The Village projector exemplifies thoughtful color integration, designed specifically for single-person households. Its neutral finish and portable design allow it to blend seamlessly while projecting onto various surfaces. The device includes sensors, cameras and high-end optics for displaying weather updates, news and instructional content.4. Select Compatible MaterialsMaterial selection in smart home design has evolved into a nuanced art form, where the tactile qualities of devices must resonate with their surroundings. Premium manufacturers now offer devices in materials that echo architectural finishes brushed aluminum harmonizes with modern kitchen appliances, while bronze-tinted glass complements traditional millwork. The most successful integrations consider not just color but texture, reflectivity, and material aging patterns, ensuring smart devices mature gracefully alongside their surrounding finishes.Recent innovations in material science have revolutionized smart device design. Manufacturers are experimenting with bio-based polymers, recycled metals, and sustainable composites that offer both aesthetic appeal and environmental benefits. These materials often feature self-cleaning properties, fingerprint-resistant coatings, and UV protection, ensuring devices maintain their appearance while reducing maintenance needs.The Klima smart air conditioning controller demonstrates effective material integration. Its sleek design attaches to walls, connecting with existing AC units via infrared technology. The devices finish options allow it to complement various interior styles while providing energy-saving features.5. Integrate Smart Art and DecorThe convergence of digital displays and decorative art has revolutionized how we think about wall spaces. Smart galleries and interactive mirrors have transcended their technological origins to become dynamic design elements, seamlessly shifting between cherished family photos, curated art collections, and functional interfaces. Leading brands like Samsungs Frame and Netgears Meural have mastered the art of disguise, creating displays that disappear into carefully considered gallery walls when not in use, effectively blurring the line between technology and traditional dcor.The convergence of art and technology has given rise to a new category of interactive home dcor. Smart galleries now offer curated collections that can change based on time of day, mood, or social occasions. Advanced AI algorithms can even generate custom artwork that complements existing room colors and patterns, creating dynamic spaces that evolve with residents preferences.The Govee RGBIC Neon Rope Light 2 exemplifies smart dcor integration, featuring 420 LEDs across 42 zones. Available in black and white, its bendable design allows for creative installation. The system offers 12 music modes and 64 scene modes, controlled through a mobile app.6. Layer Smart LightingThe orchestration of smart lighting represents perhaps the most sophisticated intersection of technology and interior design. Modern systems transcend the traditional lighting trifecta ambient, task, and accent by introducing programmable scenes that adapt to daily rhythms and activities. Premium solutions from brands like Lutron and Ketra now offer tunable white light that mirrors natural daylight patterns, while architectural LED strips and smart pendants can transform from functional task lighting to dramatic art pieces with a single voice command.The science of smart lighting has expanded beyond basic illumination to include circadian rhythm support and wellness features. Advanced systems now incorporate bio-adaptive lighting that adjusts color temperature and intensity throughout the day to support natural sleep-wake cycles. These systems can also integrate with other smart home features to create comprehensive atmospheric experiences for different activities and moods.Aqaras Matter-enabled Ceiling Light T1M demonstrates this layered approach. Its outer notification ring serves as accent lighting, while the central disc provides ambient illumination with 16 million color options. The design integrates smart features without compromising visual appeal.7. Conceal TechnologyThe art of concealment has become a cornerstone of sophisticated smart home design, where the goal is to create spaces that feel distinctly human rather than overtly technological. Leading interior designers are developing innovative solutions from custom millwork with ventilated mesh panels to motorized art pieces that glide aside to reveal displays. The key lies in strategic placement: smart hubs disappear into dedicated tech closets, speakers integrate behind acoustic fabric walls, and control panels retreat behind sliding panels, emerging only when needed.The art of concealment has evolved to include innovative solutions like smart wallpaper with embedded sensors, architectural panels with integrated displays, and furniture with built-in charging capabilities. Designers are also developing invisible technology zones where devices appear only when needed, using motorized mechanisms and transparent OLED displays that become opaque on demand.The Majung sliding display illustrates creative concealment. This doorway-mounted screen remains subtle when retracted, showing only basic information. When extended, it reveals full smart home controls while doubling as a privacy screen.8. Choose Functional DecorThe evolution of smart home aesthetics has given rise to a new category of objects that defy traditional categorization devices that are equal parts functional technology and sculptural design elements. Consider Bang & Olufsens artisanal speakers that double as modernist sculptures, or Philips Hues illuminated mirrors that seamlessly integrate ambient lighting with smart controls. These dual-purpose pieces represent a sophisticated approach to technology integration, where every smart device earns its visual real estate through both functionality and aesthetic contribution.The trend toward multifunctional smart dcor reflects a broader movement in interior design that emphasizes space efficiency and purposeful aesthetics. Manufacturers are developing modular systems that can adapt to different needs throughout the day, such as mirrors that transform into information displays or decorative panels that unfold into workstations. This versatility allows homeowners to maintain minimal aesthetics while maximizing functionality.The Enabot ROLA PetPal shows how functional devices can complement dcor. This modular robot features a 5MP camera and treat dispenser while maintaining an appealing design that fits modern interiors.9. Plan for FlexibilityFuture-proofing smart home design requires a sophisticated understanding of both current technology and emerging trends. Forward-thinking spaces now incorporate modular infrastructure think easily accessible cable raceways concealed behind magnetic panels, strategically placed power ports disguised within millwork, and dedicated tech closets with upgradeable rack systems. This architectural approach to flexibility allows spaces to evolve alongside technology while maintaining their aesthetic integrity, ensuring todays cutting-edge design remains relevant through tomorrows innovations.The concept of future-proofing smart home design has become central to modern interior planning. Architects and designers now incorporate dedicated tech zones, accessible wire chases, and modular wall systems that can accommodate evolving technology without requiring major renovations. This approach includes consideration for power distribution, wireless signal optimization, and heat management, ensuring both current and future devices perform optimally.The Yale Approach Wi-Fi lock demonstrates flexible design integration. This retrofit system installs over existing deadbolts in about 10 minutes, offering smart features without requiring extensive modifications.10. Incorporate Smart GardeningThe integration of biophilic design with smart technology represents the next frontier in sophisticated interior spaces. These intelligent growing solutions feature AI-driven climate control, automated nutrient delivery, and app-controlled lighting that transforms ordinary planters into living art installations, effectively bridging the gap between nature and technology while satisfying our innate need for organic elements in modern interiors.The integration of biophilic design with smart technology represents a growing trend in interior spaces. Advanced plant care systems now incorporate AI-driven climate control, automated nutrient delivery, and even communication capabilities that alert owners to plant health issues. These systems can be programmed to create living walls, vertical gardens, and other green features that serve both aesthetic and practical purposes in the smart home environment.The Ecobloom smart planter illustrates this combination, featuring soil sensors, automated watering and grow lights within an elegant three-ring design. Its modern aesthetic complements contemporary interiors while providing practical plant care.When planning home automation, consider consulting an interior designer for strategic guidance. Professional expertise ensures that smart systems integrate seamlessly with dcor while maintaining aesthetic appeal.The future of smart home integration in interior design points toward even more seamless solutions.
