Могли ли мы не заметить целый мир, существующий параллельно с нашим?

На дворе 2026 год, и где-то под вашими ногами — в бездонной тьме глубокой континентальной скважины или в кипящем рассоле древнего солончака — тлеет какое-то свечение. Это живое существо, которое нельзя найти ни в одном учебнике. У него нет ДНК. Его клеточная мембрана, если она у него вообще есть, состоит из липидов, скрученных «не в ту сторону». Оно никогда не появляется в результатах анализа 16S рРНК, оно гибнет от голода... Read more

Thought of the day from Stoic philosopher Marcus Aurelius: “For nowhere either with more quiet or more freedom from trouble does a man retire than into his own soul.””

I am not a psychologist or a therapist, and this is a piece of reading and reflection on an old text and one modern study, not advice. The research I mention here comes from a particular group of people at a particular moment, not a settled rule about how every mind works. The line comes ... Read more Read more

Жара буквально делает животных глупее, и это огромная проблема

Зима становится теплее, лето — жарче. Среднегодовая температура растет, и многие из нас замечают, что в жаркие дни сложнее сосредоточиться, запомнить что-то важное или быстро принять решение. Организм направляет ресурсы на поддержание нормальной температуры тела, что сказывается на работе нервной системы. Похожие трудности испытывают не только люди, но и животные, обитающие в самых разных уголках планеты. В условиях, когда климат становится все более нестабильным, эти особенности могут играть важную роль... Read more

Ernest Oppenheimer wrote the diamond industry’s quiet rule in a private memo: the only way to raise a diamond’s value is to make it scarce — meaning deliberately reduce how many reach the market

In 1910, a young Ernest Oppenheimer wrote a private memo arguing the only way to raise diamond prices was to deliberately restrict supply. The doctrine built De Beers, shaped a century of engagement rings, and quietly underwrites how luxury still works today. Read more

Cecil Rhodes spent 17 years buying out every rival diamond digger in Kimberley, and by 1889 his De Beers controlled roughly 90 percent of every diamond on Earth

Cecil Rhodes arrived at the Kimberley diamond diggings as a sickly 18-year-old in 1871 and spent seventeen years buying out every rival. By 1889 his De Beers Consolidated Mines controlled roughly 90 percent of the world's rough diamond production — a monopoly that would shape the price of an engagement ring for the next 130 years.
