What is this ‘blue dot fever’ and why is the music industry afflicted with it? – National

As the Andes version of hantavirus continues to cause concern among health officials, the music industry is monitoring what’s being called “blue dot fever.” It’s nothing biological, nor will it be the cause of the next lockdown, but it is of concern.The condition gets its name from online Ticketmaster seating charts for concerts at venues across North America. A blue dot indicates an unsold seat, and a quick survey of summer concerts features a lot of gigs that look like a bad case of Smurf measles.For the couple of years immediately following COVID, business for the touring end of the music industry surged as we made up for lost time during the shut-in period in 2020-21. We called it “funflation,” a wave of spending on things that hadn’t been able to do.Concert revenues exploded, with 145...

Hypertension Day 2026: Why `Internalised Urgency` is a new heart risk for women

For decades, the public health narrative surrounding hypertension has followed a familiar script: cut back on processed foods, hide the saltshaker, and watch your sodium intake. Yet, across India’s bustling metropolitan hubs, a perplexing and deeply concerning clinical trend is emerging.  Cardio-metabolic clinics are increasingly filling up with young, urban, physically active women who monitor their diets meticulously, do not smoke, and maintain a healthy weight—yet present with borderline hypertension, arterial stiffness, and cardiac arrhythmias. As medical science looks closer, the culprit is proving to be far more insidious than a high-sodium diet. Instead, it is an invisible, culturally normalised psychological phenomenon known as ‘Internalised Urgency’—the chronic, unrelenting feel...

Chatbots May Be Giving Out Your Phone Number

When talking to a chatbot like ChatGPT, you should never assume your conversations are private. Many chatbots, by default, use your discussions to train the underlying AI models, but even if you opt out of training, or use a temporary chat, these conversations are often stored on company servers for some limited amount of time. The general rule of thumb is to avoid sharing anything with a chatbot that you wouldn't want to come out in public. (Proprietary company information, personal secrets, etc.) But what if the chatbot in question already has your private information? What if ChatGPT, Gemini, or Claude is happy to share your phone number with anyone who asks for it?That's the discussion I stumbled upon this week, following reporting from Eileen Guo of MIT Technology Review. In the piece...
