Scientists have pulled off a feat long considered out of reach: getting light to mimic the famous quantum Hall effect. In their experiment, photons drift sideways in perfectly defined, quantized steps—just like electrons do in powerful magnetic fields. Because these steps depend only on nature’s fundamental constants, they could become a new gold standard for ultra-precise measurements. The discovery also hints at tougher, more reliable quantum photonic technologies.

The first time someone told me I was “too sensitive,” I was maybe twelve. I’d pointed out that a family friend seemed upset at dinner even though she was smiling. My mum told me I was reading into things. The family friend called two weeks later to say she’d been going through a divorce. That ... Read more Read more ›

ReactOS aims to be compatible with programs and drivers developed for Windows Server 2003 and later versions of Microsoft Windows. And Slashdot reader jeditobe reports that the project has now "announced significant progress in achieving compatibility with proprietary graphics drivers." ReactOS now supports roughly 90% of GPU drivers for Windows XP and Windows Server 2003, thanks to a series of fixes and the implementation of the KMDF (Kernel-Mode Driver Framework)... Read more ›

There was a stretch in my life where I’d come home every evening, sit across from someone I was supposed to be closest to, and feel completely invisible. We’d talk. We’d eat dinner together. We’d go through the motions of a shared life. But something fundamental was missing. And the strangest part? I couldn’t even ... Read more Read more ›

I’ll be honest with you. There was a time when I felt guilty about this. Friday evening would come around and mates from my corporate days would be making plans. Drinks in Soho. Someone’s birthday. A bar that someone had read about somewhere. And I’d look at my phone, look at my sofa, and quietly ... Read more Read more ›

"Они, вероятно, напишут книги с названиями вроде «Как я превратил доллар в миллион за 20 дней, работая по 30 секунд в день». Ещё хуже: они начнут летать по стране, посещать семинары по "эффективному подбрасыванию", спорить с профессорами: «Если это невозможно, то почему нас 215?»" Читать далее Read more ›

A legal feud between the co-founders of Lux Optics, the developer behind the Halide camera app, revealed that Apple was close to acquiring the company. As first reported by The Information, Apple held acquisition talks for Lux Optics, which also developed the Kino, Spectre and Orion apps, in the summer of 2025. According to The Information, the deal eventually fell through in September of that year, but the potential acquisition... Read more ›

Привет всем!Ко мне часто обращаются молодые инженеры с вопросом: «А зачем вообще идти в аспирантуру?» Я обычно рассказываю, какие плюсы и минусы есть у такого шага — как учёба прокачивает навыки, помогает упорядочить знания и освоить грамотную постановку экспериментов. Но выбор каждому нужно делать самому, стоит ли прокачивать такие навыки или нет.И вот во время одного такого разговора, погрузившись в воспоминания о собственных научных делах, я случайно наткнулся в интернете...

I cook for myself most nights. It’s one of those rituals I look forward to after a day of being stuck in my own head, working through ideas and staring at a screen.

Slashdot reader BrianFagioli writes: According to the research firm Gartner, 50% of U.S. consumers say they would prefer to do business with brands that avoid using GenAI in consumer facing content such as advertising and promotional messaging. The survey of 1,539 Americans, conducted in October 2025, also found growing skepticism about the reliability of online information, with 61% saying they frequently question whether information they use for everyday decisions is...

In 1966, a developmental psychologist named Diana Baumrind published a study that would change how we think about parenting. Working out of the University of California, Berkeley, she identified three distinct styles: authoritarian, authoritative, and permissive. Her research was groundbreaking. But here’s the thing that always strikes me about that timing. The generation being raised ... Read more Read more ›

Researchers have created “Smart Underwear,” a wearable device that measures flatulence by detecting hydrogen produced by gut microbes. Early tests suggest people may pass gas about 32 times a day—much higher than previous estimates. The device gives scientists a new way to track gut microbial activity in everyday life. It will power a new nationwide study called the Human Flatus Atlas to map normal patterns of gas production. Read more ›

Spiders and insects may not be fan favorites, but they are vital to the health of ecosystems—and scientists barely know how they’re doing. Researchers found that nearly 90% of North America’s insect and arachnid species have no conservation status, leaving their fate largely unknown. Even more striking, most states don’t protect a single arachnid species. The study warns that these overlooked creatures are essential to planetary health and urgently need... Read more ›

NASA’s Curiosity rover is investigating strange spiderweb-like ridges on Mars that may reveal a hidden chapter of the planet’s watery history. These “boxwork” formations likely formed when groundwater flowed through cracks in the rock, leaving minerals that hardened into ridges while surrounding material eroded away. New chemical analyses of drilled rock samples show minerals linked to water activity. Read more ›

Mars didn’t always look like the barren world we see today. Over billions of years, the Sun’s solar wind stripped away much of its atmosphere, helping transform it from a warmer, wetter planet into a frozen desert. NASA’s twin-spacecraft ESCAPADE mission aims to watch this process in action by measuring how the solar wind interacts with Mars’ fragile magnetic environment. The findings could reveal how Mars lost its habitability—and help... Read more ›

Researchers have revealed how bacteria precisely control the genes that trigger cell division. The study shows that the MraZ protein, which normally forms a donut-shaped structure, must bend and partially break apart to bind key DNA sequences that activate division genes. Using cryo-electron microscopy, scientists captured this interaction in remarkable detail. The mechanism appears to be widespread across bacteria, offering a new window into how microbes regulate growth. Read more ›

Hidden in volcanic lakes and deep-sea vents, scientists have discovered tough new DNA-binding proteins built to survive extreme conditions. After scanning huge genetic databases, researchers found molecules that remain stable under heat, salt, and harsh chemistry. One of these proteins significantly improved rapid LAMP diagnostic tests, making them faster and more sensitive. The discovery could help create better tools for detecting infectious diseases.

A protein tied to ALS and dementia may have a much bigger role in disease than scientists realized. Researchers found that TDP43 controls a key DNA repair process, but when the protein becomes imbalanced, the repair system can spiral out of control, harming neurons and destabilizing DNA. The team also discovered that high levels of the protein are linked to increased mutation rates in cancer. The discovery places TDP43 at... Read more ›

A new study in mice suggests that a father’s nicotine exposure could influence the metabolic health of his children. Researchers found that when male mice consumed nicotine, their offspring showed changes in how their bodies handled sugar, including differences in insulin and glucose levels and altered liver function. These shifts may be linked to a higher risk of diabetes and related metabolic diseases. Read more ›

Scientists studying crops irrigated with treated wastewater discovered that trace pharmaceuticals often collect in plant leaves. Tomatoes, carrots, and lettuce absorbed medications such as antidepressants and seizure drugs during the experiment. However, the edible portions of tomatoes and carrots contained much lower levels than the leaves. The findings help researchers understand how crops process contaminants as wastewater reuse becomes more common. Read more ›

When the Asian financial crisis sent rice prices soaring in Indonesia in the late 1990s, the shock didn’t just strain household budgets—it left lasting marks on children’s bodies. Researchers from the University of Bonn found that kids exposed to the food price surge were more likely to experience stunted growth and, years later, a higher risk of obesity. The findings suggest that during crises, families often maintain calorie intake but... Read more ›
