More than two decades after Maine became the first state to hand laptops to middle schoolers -- distributing 17,000 Apple machines across 243 schools in 2002 â" neuroscientist Jared Cooney Horvath told a U.S. Senate committee earlier this year that Gen Z is the first generation in modern history to score lower on standardized tests than the one before it.
The U.S. spent more than $30 billion in 2024 alone putting laptops and tablets in classrooms, and Horvath cited PISA data from 15-year-olds worldwide sh

Родоначальником служит концепция перекатывания грузов на брёвнах, которую использовали рабы при строительстве египетских пирамид. Чтобы передвигать тяжёлые грузы на большие расстояния они подкладывали под них брёвна, а когда сзади освобождалось одно бревно, они его перемещали вперёд. Получалась своеобразная бесконечная дорога из брёвен. Первым более осмысленным шагом в деле изобретения гусеницы можно считать работу д'Эрмана. В 1713 году в Парижской Академии наук он представил необычный проект тележки. Между Read more ›

Это не про политику. Это про продуктовый сигнал, который считывают все — кроме тех, кто его посылает.Есть старый принцип в разработке: eat your own dog food — пользуйся тем, что создаёшь. Microsoft внедрила его в 1988-м, когда менеджер написал вирусное письмо коллегам: «Ты ешь свой собственный корм для собак?» Смысл прост — если вы не пользуетесь собственным продуктом, у вас нет мотивации его улучшать. Пользователи это видят. Рынок это чувствует.У... Read more ›

Fish oil has long been praised as brain-boosting, but new research suggests the story may be more complicated. Scientists found that in people with repeated mild head injuries, a key omega-3 fatty acid in fish oil—EPA—may actually interfere with the brain’s ability to repair itself. Instead of helping recovery, it appears to weaken blood vessel stability, disrupt healing signals, and even contribute to harmful protein buildup linked to cognitive decline. Read more ›

Всем привет. Меня зовут Данил, я учредитель агентства WallMates. Никогда раньше не писал на Хабр, потому что здесь принято обсуждать архитектуру высоконагруженных систем, а не колеровку RAL. Но этот кейс заставил меня сесть за клавиатуру по двум причинам.Во-первых, я чуть не завалил проект из-за банальной колориметрии. Во-вторых, наблюдая за командой заказчика после сдачи объекта, я понял, что офис — это такой же интерфейс для сотрудника, как IDE для разработчика. И... Read more ›

Памятники орхоно-енисейской письменности представляют собой древнейшие известные источники, фиксирующие тюркоязычную речь. Их научное значение первостепенно, так как они принадлежат средневековым обществам, сообщения о которых в иных письменных документах крайне скудны или полностью отсутствуют. Это не просто разрозненные артефакты, а сложные системы государственной письменности, где каждый алфавит являлся культурно-политическим признаком конкретного государственного образования.Они по праву считаются летоп Read more ›

Scientists have uncovered how graphene oxide pulls off a remarkable trick: it hunts down and destroys harmful bacteria while leaving human cells completely unharmed. By targeting a molecule found only in bacterial membranes, this ultra-thin carbon-based material acts with laser-like precision—offering a powerful new alternative to traditional antibiotics. Even more exciting, it works against drug-resistant “superbugs,” promotes faster wound healing, and keeps its antibacterial strength even after repeated w Read more ›

Back in the 1990s, floppy disks "had a mere capacity of 1.44MB," remembers XDA Developers, "which would soon become absolutely tiny for the increasingly large pieces of software that would come about." Floppy disks also felt quite fragile, and while we got "superfloppy" formats that were physically larger and had more capacity, those were pretty unwieldy as portable storage. Enter 1994, when a company called Iomega introduced its variant of... Read more ›

NBC News reports on a 16-person clinical trial of "personalized messenger RNA vaccines" which use the immune system to fight cancer cells.

Patients still have surgery to remove tumors. After that, the mRNA vaccines are personalized for each individual using... Read more ›

After 49 years of space travel, Voyager 1 "is running out of power," reports NPR: The spacecraft runs on a radioisotope thermoelectric generator — a device that converts heat from decaying plutonium into electricity. It carries no solar panels, no rechargeable batteries. Just the slow, steady release of nuclear warmth, which diminishes by about 4 watts each year. After nearly five decades, that decline has become critical. During a routine... Read more ›
