    What is the two-day rule?

    After enjoying a period of relaxation during the summer, many of us return to studies or work with a desire to develop good habits and a better routine than the previous year. It might be taking up a new sport, cooking healthy meals instead of ordering in or going to bed earlier for example. Just like with New Year’s resolutions, we often stick to them to start with, but let them slip after a few weeks. Today we’re going to talk about a method which may well help you stay on track: the two-day rule. Is it really possible to adopt a good habit in just two days? How long does it take to establish a habit? Are there other tips for forming good habits? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!

    How is AI being used in the legal system?

    ChatGPT has been invading all walks of life in recent months, and that even includes the justice system. In late March 2023, a Pakistani judge consulted the chatbot before granting bail to a 13 year old boy who stood accused of kidnapping and attempting to rape a 9 year old. According to Pakistan Observer, the judge asked ChatGPT the following initial question: ““Can a juvenile suspect in Pakistan, who is 13 years old, be granted bail after arrest?” The chatbot responded: “Under the Juvenile Justice System Act 2018, according to section 12, the court can grant bail on certain conditions.” A discussion then ensued on how this option could be interpreted when taking into account certain other laws. The judge included ChatGPT’s responses in his judgement and stated how impressed he was. The cases have led to hope that AI could help make legal systems around the world more efficient, but there’s been a lot of criticism and skepticism too. Are there any other examples aside from ChatGPT ? What are the possible risks then?

    How can I eat healthy on a budget?

    The first quarter of 2023 has seen food inflation in the UK surpass 16%, according to the Office for National Statistics. Such inflation rates hadn’t been seen for forty years. It’s contributed to the ongoing cost-of-living crisis, and an increasing number of people are struggling to afford to buy enough food. With all that in mind, many people’s number one concern right now is keeping their supermarket bill as low as possible, regardless of how healthy what they’re eating is. But there are ways of sticking to a balanced diet even on a shoestring budget. Isn’t healthy food always expensive? What are the tips to buy healthy food at a low cost? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!

    What is Extinction Rebellion ?

    This environmental movement was created in England just a few years ago in October 2018, but quickly spread all across the world. Extinction Rebellion’s aim is to compel governments to take action against global warming and environmental collapse. It’s earned a reputation as a radical organisation, due to its disobedience and disruption tactics. But only using non-violent action is one of its key principles. Also known as XR, Extinction Rebellion was born from a realisation that traditional protest methods were insufficient when it came to the environment crisis. These activists felt new methods and organisation forms were required, taking inspiration from other grassroots movements like Occupy, the American civil rights movement or the suffragettes. What do they actually want in concrete terms? How did such a young movement get to be so rich and powerful? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions !

    What is Neo-Luddism, the growing anti-technology movement?

    In today’s ultra-connected society, more and more technologies are emerging all the time, and they’re getting increasingly advanced. Just look at how far AI has come in recent times, and the attention it’s been getting since the launch of ChatGPT. In many ways, it’s difficult to not use technology. To not do so would be like cutting ourselves off from the rest of the world. But still, it’s not to everyone’s liking. Some people resent the influence that some forms of technology have on our society, and want to reject them. They are known as neo-Luddites. Where does the name come from? Could AI have the same impact? And today, how is Neo-Luddism exemplified? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!

    Could I save more money by cash stuffing?

    With inflation at the highest it’s been in 45 years, it’s no wonder people are looking for ways to manage their money more effectively. And the trend we’re talking about today has really taken off on Tiktok since the start of the year. The #cashstuffing hashtag had already reached 1 billion views on the platform at the time of recording. There’s actually nothing new about cash stuffing; in many ways it’s as if we were going back in time a few decades to when bank cards didn’t exist. It consists of allocating a certain amount of money to an expenditure category, like groceries for example. How does it work then? Does it actually work then? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!

    What is plasticrust, the latest concerning form of pollution?

    A March 2023 study by American scientific magazine PLOS One revealed how plastic pollution of the oceans has reached unprecedented levels. An estimated 2.3 million tons of plastic are now floating in the seas or have been deposited on coastlines. These figures are alarming, both for wildlife and for us. We know the consequences of microplastics on animal and human health. We’ve also seen garbage patches created in the middle of the oceans. But on the coastline, another form of pollution has appeared: small pieces of plastic have become embedded in the rocks to create what’s been labelled “plasticrust”. What is this "plasticrust" made of? What impact could plasticrust pollution have? What’s happening with the UN treaty on plastic pollution? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!
