Is the Slate Truck too minimal for its own good?

Add to bookmarks Don't show The Verge

Andrew J. Hawkins @ The Verge 1 place · today 09:00 EDT

The first thing you notice about the Slate Truck is its size. It's small, surprisingly so. In a country where trucks often come with their own zip code, Slate's pickup is refreshingly puny, measuring 174.6 inches long, 70.6 inches wide, and 69.3 inches tall, with a curb weight of approximately 3,602 pounds (1,634kg).

На шаг ближе к Скайнету: научились ли нейросети умножать?

Dmitry_Barovik @ Habr 1 place · today 08:45 EDT

Занимаясь созданием систем искусственного интеллекта, не перестаешь удивляться, из каких порой «костылей» состоят настоящие чудеса прогресса. Например, знаете ли вы, что даже самые современные нейросети фундаментально не умеют перемножать два числа? Они не считают в привычном нам смысле, а скорее запоминают и аппроксимируют ответы.Как так вышло, что ИИ пишет код и сочиняет стихи, но буксует на таблице умножения? Давайте разбираться Read more ›

Все современные языковые модели иногда ведут себя так, будто у них есть эмоции: они «рады помочь», «извиняются» за ошибки и словно «нервничают», когда задача не даётся. Новое исследование Anthropic показывает, что это не просто стиль ответа — внутри моделей действительно возникают функциональные представления эмоций, которые влияют на поведение: например, «отчаяние» повышает шанс выбрать неэтичный или «костыльный» путь решения задачи. То, как обучаются модели, подталкивает их играть роль персонажа с человеч Read more ›

This quantum computing breakthrough may not be what it seemed

A team of physicists set out to test some of the most exciting claims in quantum computing—and found a very different story. Instead of confirming breakthroughs, their careful replication studies revealed that signals once hailed as major advances could actually be explained in simpler ways. Despite the importance of these findings, their work initially struggled to get published, highlighting a deeper issue in science. Read more ›

This hidden state of water could explain why life exists

Add to bookmarks Don't show ScienceDaily

ScienceDaily · 03/29/2026 09:32 EDT

Scientists have finally found a hidden “critical point” in supercooled water that explains why it behaves so strangely. At this point, two different liquid forms of water merge, triggering powerful fluctuations that affect water even at normal temperatures. The breakthrough was made possible by ultra-fast X-ray lasers that captured water before it froze. This discovery could reshape our understanding of water’s role in nature—and possibly even life itself. Read more ›

Far beneath the ocean near Japan, scientists have discovered that the magma system linked to the most powerful eruption of the Holocene is slowly rebuilding. By using seismic imaging, researchers mapped a large magma reservoir under the Kikai caldera and confirmed it is the same system that fueled the massive eruption 7,300 years ago. However, the magma now present is newly injected, not leftover, as shown by changes in the... Read more ›

Lost in space: Microgravity makes sperm lose their sense of direction

Making babies in space may be more complicated than expected, as new research shows sperm struggle to navigate in microgravity. Scientists found that while sperm can still swim normally, they lose their sense of direction without gravity, making it harder to reach and fertilize an egg. In lab experiments simulating space conditions, far fewer sperm successfully made it through a maze designed to mimic the reproductive tract, and fertilization rates... Read more ›

Scientists shocked to find lab gloves may be skewing microplastics data

Scientists may have been unknowingly inflating microplastics pollution estimates, and the surprising source could be their own lab gloves. A University of Michigan study found that common nitrile and latex gloves release tiny particles called stearates, which closely resemble microplastics and can contaminate samples during testing. In some cases, this led to wildly exaggerated results, forcing researchers to track down the unexpected culprit. Read more ›

Just a few minutes of getting out of breath each day could dramatically cut your risk of major diseases—including heart disease, dementia, and diabetes. A large study of nearly 100,000 people found that it’s not just how much you move, but how intensely you move that matters. Short bursts of vigorous activity—like rushing for a bus or climbing stairs quickly—were linked to striking reductions in disease risk, especially for inflammatory... Read more ›

This could explain why some galaxies near early quasars appear faint or missing. The finding suggests galaxies grow and evolve together, not in isolation. Read more ›
