A bowling revolution: Modeling the perfect conditions for a strike

Researchers share a model that identifies the optimal location for bowling ball placement. Employing a system of six differential equations derived from Euler's equations for a rotating rigid body, their model creates a plot that shows the best conditions for a strike. The model accounts for a variety factors, including the thin layer of oil applied to bowling lanes, the motion of the subtly asymmetric bowling ball, and a 'miss-room' to allow for human inaccuracies.

When YouTube launched in 2005, the very first video ever uploaded was a 19-second clip of co-founder Jawed Karim standing in front of the elephant enclosure at the San Diego Zoo, saying nothing particularly meaningful about elephants having long trunks — and the video remains live on the platform today with more than 350 million views, as one of the most-watched home videos in human history

The first video ever uploaded to YouTube is not an event, not a viral phenomenon, not a curated piece of content, and not particularly interesting on its own terms. It is a 19-second clip of a 25-year-old man standing in front of an elephant enclosure at the San Diego Zoo, observing that elephants have long ... Read more Read more

Property-based testing на практике: как находить баги, о которых вы не подумали

Тридцать зелёных юнит‑тестов ещё не означают, что код готов к продакшену. Баги часто прячутся в данных, которые никто не догадался проверить вручную: пустых строках, дубликатах, редком Unicode и неожиданных последовательностях операций. Разбираемся, как Hypothesis генерирует такие случаи, проверяет свойства вместо отдельных примеров и сводит падение к минимальному контрпримеру. Читать далее Read more

Парадокс производительности в эпоху AI

Внедрение ИИ в бизнес‑процессы подарило компаниям надежду получить недвусмысленные подтверждения роста производительности труда. На поверку оказывается, что ИИ помогает некоторым сотрудникам стать более эффективными, но это никак не сказывается на прибыли компаний. У такой реинкарнации классического парадокса Солоу есть не только экономическое, но и психологическое объяснение. Особенности взаимодействия с ИИ таковы, что человек действительно оказывается «бутылочным горлышком», но при этом по‑прежнему остает Read more

The mysterious Amaterasu particle may not be a proton at all. New research suggests that some of the most extreme cosmic rays could be ultraheavy atomic nuclei, heavier than iron, which are better able to retain their energy while traveling through space. This idea could help explain how these rare particles reach Earth and provide new clues about the powerful cosmic explosions that create them. Read more

Cancer cells often survive treatment by fixing the DNA damage that therapy is meant to cause. Researchers found that UNI418 can disrupt this repair ability, leaving cancer cells more exposed. When combined with a PARP inhibitor, it helped resistant cancer cells respond to treatment again. The findings point to a new strategy for overcoming cancer drug resistance. Read more
