Using AI to detect students' smiles in geotagged photos, Resume.io ranked America's twenty happiest colleges.
There are a few ways to find out which colleges offer students the best experience. You could read each college's reviews and testimonials. You could search a college's name on Twitter for students' brutally honest opinions on studying there. Or, you could do what Resume.io did: use an AI facial recognition tool to detect smiles in Instagram selfies geotagged at different universities, and rank colleges according to the highest proportion of happy-looking faces. After assessing a photo, the AI tool gives a percentage between zero and 100 to indicate how confident it is that the analyzed face is expressing happiness. Resume.io considered faces scoring 75 percent or higher to be genuinely happy ones. Key Findings:
Pork roll, hoagies and farm roads vs Taylor Ham, subs, and eight-lane highways… North and South Jersey are completely different worlds. Here are a few of the biggest differences between the two parts of New Jersey. 1. Pork Roll vs. Taylor Ham For some reason, this is the true dividing issue for most New Jerseyans. In the south, it's Pork Roll. Up north, it's Taylor Ham. Everyone has an opinion, even if they don't eat it. 2. Completely different landscapes... The flat farmlands of south Jersey are a stark contrast to the rocky and mountainous terrain of the northern part of the state 3. ...and completely different traffic patterns. The traffic in north Jersey never seems to cease. Down south, slow country roads generally don't get backed up, but you might be stuck behind a tractor or a combine if you're unlucky. 4. Hoagies...or Subs? This is another terminology debate. Anyone from the Philadelphia metro area calls sandwiches hoagies, but elsewhere, they're known as subs. 5. Each part of the state roots for a different city's sports teams... Philadelphia-area fans are probably the most loyal fans in all of sports, but much of north Jersey roots for the New York teams. No matter who they root for, though, New Jerseyans will always remind you that The Meadowlands is in the Garden State. 6. ... and considered a different city "the City". If your friends are trying to plan a day in "the city", you might want to ask for clarification. 7. Beach vibes vary from the northern towns of Monmouth County to the sleepy towns of Cape May County. Northern New Jersey's shore towns are more residential and lively all year long. Down in the southern parts of Ocean or Cape May county, the population is largely seasonal, and the towns are much quieter. 8. The difference between north and south Jersey is so great that we can't even agree on the "correct" borders.
The "line" between North and South Jersey is determined by where you grew up, and if you consider Central Jersey to be a real thing. There's no true border that we can all agree on.

As the world grapples with the consequences of climate change, scientists have been delving into the potential impact on allergies. Jeffrey Demain, a distinguished professor at the University of Washington and Director of the Allergy, Asthma, and Immunology Center of Alaska, warns that if global warming continues, we can anticipate more frequent and severe allergies. Recently, he shared his insights at Nemours/Alfred I. duPont Hospital for Children in Delaware. Here's an overview of the reasons why rising temperatures are poised to make allergy sufferers more miserable than ever.
While most of the available evidence highlights the worsening of allergies, it's important to note that many studies have been primarily correlational. Demain is the first to acknowledge that seasonal variations will still occur, as exemplified by harsh winters like this year's. However, he asserts that the overall trends are unmistakable, even if your nose might not readily agree. |
