The James Webb Space Telescope has revealed new details in a bizarre nebula that looks like a brain floating in space. Formed by a dying star, the “Exposed Cranium” nebula shows layered gas and a dark central divide that creates its eerie shape. Webb’s infrared view suggests powerful jets may be shaping the structure. The images capture a brief and dramatic phase in a star’s final evolution.

Как мы построили речевую аналитику для кол-центров и начали анализировать тысячи звонков

Привет! Я Артём Юрченко — DS-инженер в команде Недвижимости Авито. Наши кол-центры совершают до 30 000 звонков в день, и вручную можно проверить лишь небольшую часть из них. Расскажу, как мы начали строить систему речевой аналитики и разработали первую модель, которая автоматически находит в звонках возражения клиентов и анализирует, как операторы их отрабатывают. Статья будет полезна DS-инженерам, аналитикам и продакт-менеджерам, которые работают над продуктами построения речевой аналитики.

Секреты Docker Swarm: как сделать их одноразовыми с помощью именованных каналов (FIFO)

Docker Swarm предоставляет встроенный механизм управления секретами: пароли, ключи API и сертификаты передаются в контейнеры через зашифрованный канал и монтируются в /run/secrets/. Звучит безопасно — пока вы не осознаете, что любой пользователь с доступом к docker exec может прочитать эти секреты в любой момент жизни контейнера.В этой статье я разберу, почему стандартные способы защиты не работают, и покажу решение на основе именованных каналов (FIFO), которое позволяет секрету быть прочитанным ровно...

Psychology suggests the most reliable sign that someone had a difficult childhood isn’t what they tell you about it — it’s how startled they look when you are simply kind to them without a reason, as though kindness without a transaction attached is something the body recognizes as unusual before the mind has finished deciding what to do with it

That flash of surprise when you show someone simple kindness—holding a door, offering help, smiling for no reason—reveals a childhood where every gesture came with hidden costs, where their body learned to brace for impact before their mind could process that this time, maybe, it's safe. Read more

Deep sleep does far more than rest the body — it activates a powerful brain-driven system that controls growth hormone, fueling muscle and bone strength, metabolism, and even mental performance. Scientists have now mapped the neural circuits behind this process, uncovering a delicate feedback loop in which sleep boosts growth hormone, and that same hormone helps regulate wakefulness.

Scientists at the University of Waterloo have uncovered a bold new way to explain how the universe began—one that could reshape our understanding of the Big Bang. Instead of relying on patched-together theories, their approach shows that the universe’s explosive early growth may arise naturally from a deeper framework called quantum gravity. Read more

A breakthrough urine test could dramatically speed up how doctors treat urinary tract infections, identifying the right antibiotic in under six hours instead of waiting days. By testing directly from urine—skipping the usual lab culturing step—the method quickly shows which drugs stop bacterial growth and which don’t. In trials involving hundreds of patient samples, the test proved highly accurate, matching standard methods in over 96% of cases. Read more

Perovskite crystals can dramatically and reversibly change shape when hit with light, a behavior not seen in conventional semiconductors. This effect, called photostriction, can be finely tuned depending on the light’s intensity and color. Researchers say these materials act more like adjustable systems than simple switches. The finding could lead to a new generation of light-powered sensors and devices. Read more

Scientists have taken lasers beyond light and into the realm of sound, creating a breakthrough “phonon laser” that manipulates tiny vibrations at the quantum level. By dramatically reducing noise in these systems, researchers can now measure motion and forces with unprecedented precision. This advance could unlock new ways to study gravity, probe quantum physics, and even revolutionize navigation with ultra-accurate, satellite-free systems. Read more

A new shape-shifting material can change both its texture and color in seconds, inspired by the camouflage abilities of octopuses. By precisely controlling how a polymer swells with water, researchers can create detailed, reversible patterns at the nanoscale. The material can even mimic realistic surfaces and dynamically adjust how it reflects light. In the future, AI could allow it to automatically blend into its surroundings. Read more

Scientists have uncovered a surprising secret about our DNA: it’s not a static blueprint, but a constantly shifting, folding structure that helps control how genes turn on and off. Researchers at the Salk Institute found that different parts of the genome loop and unloop at different speeds, with more active regions constantly reshaping themselves to support gene activity.

Salt substitutes offer a simple, low-cost way to reduce sodium intake and improve blood pressure, yet very few Americans actually use them—even among those who need them most. A large national analysis spanning nearly two decades found that usage remains surprisingly low and has not improved over time. Researchers say this gap represents a major missed opportunity for preventing heart disease and stroke. Read more

A surprising breakthrough suggests that a drug best known as Viagra could help treat a devastating childhood disease. Researchers found that sildenafil significantly improved symptoms in patients with Leigh syndrome—a rare and often fatal disorder that affects the brain and muscles. In a small study, patients showed stronger muscles, fewer seizures, and better recovery from dangerous metabolic crises, with some experiencing dramatic improvements in mobility and daily life.
