921 190-million-year-old “Sword Dragon” fossil rewrites ichthyosaur history

ScienceDaily · 02/24/2026 07:50 EDT

A newly identified ichthyosaur from the UK’s Jurassic Coast is rewriting part of the prehistoric playbook. Nicknamed the “Sword Dragon of Dorset,” the three-meter-long marine reptile lived during a poorly understood window of evolution when major ichthyosaur groups were disappearing and new ones emerging. Its beautifully preserved skeleton — complete with a blade-like snout and possible last meal — helps pinpoint when this dramatic transition occurred.

Почему многие неверно реализуют MVVM или способы создания абстракций

Привет, Хабр! Меня зовут Кирилл Маканков, я iOS-разработчик в ПСБ.  Сегодня хочу поговорить про особенности реализации MVVM. Не с практической, а с теоретической стороны. С практической стороны этот архитектурный шаблон давно уже объезжен и в хвост, и в гриву. А вот теоретических исследований, особенно применимых к Swift (и в общем, и к SwiftUI в частности), не так уж и много. Давайте вместе попробуем закрыть этот пробел и обосновать с теоретической...

[Перевод] SpaceX строит мегасозвездие для ИИ, но законы физики нельзя обойти ни за какие деньги

Как бы вы ни относились к искусственному интеллекту — и в особенности к большим языковым моделям и чат-ботам, которые на нём работают, — реальность такова: человечество прямо сейчас строит и расширяет инфраструктуру для его поддержки. Это огромные сети дата-центров, пожирающих электричество и воду, — и их строительство всё чаще вступает в конфликт с потребностями людей, живущих по соседству.Именно из-за этих проблем появилась идея: а что если вынести ИИ-дата-центры в космос?...

Cosmic voids may seem like the emptiest places in the universe, stripped of matter, radiation, and even dark matter. But they’re far from nothing. Even in these vast empty regions, the fundamental quantum fields that fill all of space remain, carrying a small but real amount of energy known as vacuum energy, or dark energy. While this energy is overwhelmed by matter in galaxies and clusters, in the deep emptiness... Read more

Scientists studying Mars may have uncovered a brand-new mineral hidden in the planet’s ancient sulfate deposits. By combining laboratory experiments with orbital data, researchers identified an unusual iron sulfate—ferric hydroxysulfate—forming in layered deposits near the massive Valles Marineris canyon system. The mineral likely formed when sulfate-rich deposits left behind by ancient water were later heated by volcanic or geothermal activity, transforming their chemistry. Read more

A nearly complete dinosaur skeleton discovered in Patagonia is helping scientists crack the mystery of alvarezsaurs, a bizarre group of bird-like dinosaurs. The fossil of Alnashetri cerropoliciensis reveals that these animals became tiny before developing their later specialized features, such as stubby arms and ant-eating adaptations. Weighing under two pounds, the dinosaur is one of the smallest known from South America. Read more

The compound, called SU212, targets and disables a key enzyme that cancer cells rely on to fuel their growth. In tests using humanized mouse models, the molecule caused tumors to shrink and slowed the spread of cancer... Read more

Cancer often begins when the genetic instructions that guide our cells become scrambled, allowing cells to grow uncontrollably. Now, scientists at EMBL have developed an AI-powered system called MAGIC that can automatically spot and tag cells showing early signs of chromosomal trouble—tiny DNA-filled structures known as micronuclei that are linked to future cancer development.

More than a century before quantum mechanics was born, Irish mathematician William Rowan Hamilton stumbled onto an idea that would quietly foreshadow one of the deepest truths in physics. While studying the paths of light rays and moving objects, Hamilton noticed a striking mathematical similarity between them and used it to develop a powerful new framework for mechanics. At the time, it seemed like a clever analogy—but decades later, as... Read more

A major international trial has found that daily fish oil supplements significantly reduced life-threatening cardiovascular events in dialysis patients. People who took four grams per day had a 43% lower risk of heart attack, stroke, cardiac death, or vascular-related amputations compared with those on placebo. The findings stand out because few treatments have successfully lowered heart risk in this high-risk group. Read more

Researchers have developed a high-tech system that rapidly scans ants and converts them into detailed 3D models. Using a synchrotron accelerator, X-ray imaging, robotics, and AI, the team scanned 2,000 specimens in just a week and produced models of 800 species. The images reveal microscopic anatomy that was previously difficult to study. The growing Antscan database could become a powerful digital library of biodiversity. Read more

THC doesn’t just blur memories—it can create new ones that never happened. In a controlled experiment, cannabis users were much more likely to recall words that were never shown and struggled with tasks like remembering to do something later. Researchers found that THC disrupted many different memory systems at once. Surprisingly, moderate doses caused memory problems similar to higher doses. Read more
