Photo : Ostanina Anna ( Shutterstock ) Like humans, plants need certain nutrients in order to survive. So if you have a plant, and it doesn’t exactly look like it’s thriving, you may decide to give it a little nutritional boost. But does it need plant food, or fertilizer ? And what’s the difference between the two? Here’s what to know. The difference between plant food and fertilizer Although the terms are often used interchangeably, plant food and fertilizer are not the same thing. The biggest difference is that plant food is made by the plants themselves, while fertilizer is a synthetic or natural substance that is added to a plant’s soil. Here are a few more specifics: Plant food The easiest way to remember the difference between plant food and fertilizer is that only plants can make plant food : It’s not something that can be purchased (no matter what product labels say). To produce the simple sugar they use as food, plants convert water, carbon dioxide, and sunlight during ...

E arlier this year, pickleball—aka tennis’ trendier cousin—made waves online as the latest sports craze to hit the United States. Celebrities are even getting in on the game, like LeBron James, George and Amal Clooney , and the Kardashians . But pickleball's domination may be short lived because there's a growing interest in another net-based sport called padel (pronounced ‘puh-dell’) that's poised to give it some competition. Already popular in Spain and Latin American countries, padel originated in Mexico in 1969. Today, over 25 million people across 90 countries play padel, making it one of the fastest-growing sports in the world. Fortunately, you don't need a passport to play. In the latest episode of What the Wellness , Tausi Insider’s Ella Dove visits Padel Haus , a spacious club nestled in the south Williamsburg neighborhood of Brooklyn that caters to the sport.

Sam Bankman-Fried, the former chief executive of FTX, indicated on Sunday that he is unlikely to testify in the upcoming U.S. House committee’s hearing on the collapse of his crypto exchange, saying he is still “learning and reviewing what happened.” In a tweet to the Financial Services Committee Chair Maxine Waters and the committee, Bankman-Fried, who has been alleged to misappropriate customer funds, suggested he will testify at a later time. The U.S. House Financial Services Committee announced last month that it plans to hold a hearing in December to investigate the collapse of the crypto exchange FTX, which before the implosion was one of the world’s largest. The committee said it expected to hear from the companies and individuals involved, including FTX founder Bankman-Fried, Alameda Research and Binance. Waters said earlier this month that the hearing has been scheduled for December 13. The U.S. authorities’ lethargic pace at its probe i...

Want to learn web scraping with Python but are confused about whether to use Beautiful Soup, Selenium, or Scrapy for your next project? While all these Python libraries and frameworks are powerful in their own right, they don't cater to all web scraping needs, and hence, it's important to know which tool you should use for a particular job. Let's take a look at the differences between Beautiful Soup, Scrapy, and Selenium, so you can make a wise decision before starting your next Python web scraping project. 1. Ease of Use If you're a beginner, your first requirement would be a library that's easy to learn and use. Beautiful Soup offers you all the rudimentary tools you need to scrape the web, and it's especially helpful for people who've minimal experience with Python but want to hit the ground running with web scraping.

As any sports fan knows, streaks and slumps are part of the game. Many believe that a team that has won five games in a row is more likely to win the sixth game than lose it. Fans believe that a basketball player who has been missing free-throws all game is more likely to miss the next attempt. Whether it is teams not winning games (or championships) for years, or star players being either red-hot or sporting goose-eggs on the score sheet, streaks and slumps are part of the reality of sports. But it is also the reality that faces every investor. The belief that a basketball player is more likely to sink the next basket after a string of hits than after a miss is called the “hot hand fallacy.” It is known as the recency bias, a behavioural bias that affects investors as well. This bias means we place a higher value on recent events than on events in the distant past. In an experiment to analyze investment behaviour, subjects could bet on a series of coin tosses based on the opinion o...
