After two centuries of failed attempts, scientists have finally grown dolomite in the lab, cracking a long-standing geological puzzle. They discovered that the mineral’s growth stalls because of tiny defects—but in nature, those flaws get washed away over time. By mimicking this process with precise simulations and electron beam pulses, the team achieved record-breaking crystal growth. The finding could reshape how high-tech materials are made.

В последнее время все чаще звучат идеи — что капча переоценена, и что развитие ИИ технологий медленно но верно убивает индустрию сервисов распознавания капчи. «Нейросеть научилась решать капчу лучше человека», «сервисы распознавания капчи все», «ИИ решает капчу быстрее человека» и так далее в том же духе. А давайте разберемся в этом чуть глубже — есть ощущение, что не все так однозначно, как кажется на первый взгляд. Читать далее Read more ›

"General Motors sold the data of California drivers without their knowledge or consent," says California's attorney general, "and despite numerous statements reassuring drivers that it would not do so." In 2024, The New York Times "reported that automakers including GM were sharing information about their customers' driving behavior with insurance companies," remembers TechCrunch, "and that some customers were concerned that their insurance rates had gone up as a result." Now... Read more ›

Cloudflare, a prominent internet infrastructure and security firm, has announced the layoff of approximately 1,100 employees, representing 20% of its global workforce. The decision comes despite the company reporting its strongest financial quarter to date, with revenue reaching $639.8 million—a 34% increase compared to the previous year. While the company still reported a net loss of $62 million, its future contract backlog exceeds $2.5 billion, suggesting robust business health. CEO... Read more ›

Нагрузочное тестирование — одна из самых избегаемых тем, когда речь заходит о контроле качества ПО. Корпорации, конечно, не обходят его стороной, но если говорить о продуктах меньшего масштаба, то нагрузочное тестирование часто пропускается. Команда (и, в целом, справедливо) полагает, что продукт справится с нагрузкой — на малых объёмах это обычно прокатывает. А потом внезапно наступает день, когда пользователей стало больше, а система не готова.Почему команды не тащат нагрузку в релизный... Read more ›

Meta has officially ceased support for manual end-to-end encryption (E2EE) within Instagram’s Direct Messages (DMs). As of May 8, the feature is no longer available, and the company has begun the process of deleting encrypted chat histories. This move signals a shift in Meta’s strategy, as it encourages users seeking high-level privacy to transition their conversations to WhatsApp. The decision to remove the protection stems from low user engagement; according...

Миф о том, что с ИИ можно собрать полноценный проект за вечер без опыта, звучит красиво только в теории. На примере футбольного менеджера рассказываю, почему даже с опытом в разработке и активным использованием ИИ путь до живой системы занял почти год: из-за архитектуры, механик, дизайна, ассетов и постоянной ручной сборки продукта.

Evolution seems to follow a script more often than expected. Researchers found that distantly related butterflies and moths have reused the same pair of genes for over 120 million years to produce strikingly similar warning colors. Rather than altering the genes themselves, evolution modifies how they’re switched on and off. This discovery hints that life may evolve in more predictable ways than previously believed. Read more ›

Drugs designed to clear amyloid beta from the brain—once seen as a promising path to slowing Alzheimer’s—may not actually help patients in any meaningful way, according to a major review of over 20,000 participants. Even more concerning, they may increase the risk of brain swelling and bleeding, sometimes without obvious symptoms. Read more ›

GLP-1 drugs like semaglutide—best known for treating diabetes and driving weight loss under the brand names Ozempic and Wegovy—may also deliver a surprising mental health boost. In a massive study tracking nearly 100,000 people over more than a decade, researchers found that these medications were linked to significantly fewer psychiatric hospital visits and sick days.

A new study suggests depression may soon be detectable through a simple blood test—by tracking how certain immune cells age. Researchers found that accelerated aging in monocytes, a type of white blood cell, is closely tied to the emotional and cognitive symptoms of depression, like hopelessness and loss of pleasure, rather than physical symptoms such as fatigue.

Creatine might be famous in the gym, but its real story is far more interesting. Naturally produced in the body, it helps power cells by rapidly regenerating ATP—the fuel that keeps muscles, the brain, and even the heart running during intense activity. Supplementing with creatine can boost short bursts of physical performance and may even support memory, mood, and cognitive speed, especially in people with lower baseline levels. Read more ›

Voyager 1 just powered down a nearly 50-year-old instrument to stay alive in deep space. The spacecraft is running critically low on energy, forcing NASA to make careful sacrifices to keep its mission going. Despite the shutdown, it continues to send back unique data from beyond our solar system. Engineers are now working on a bold plan that could extend its life — and possibly revive the instrument later. Read more ›

Artemis II proved NASA’s deep space systems are ready for the next leap. Orion survived its high-speed return with improved heat shield performance and pinpoint landing accuracy, while the SLS rocket nailed its trajectory. Even the launch pad upgrades paid off, with minimal damage despite the powerful liftoff. With only minor issues to resolve, NASA is now gearing up for Artemis III and future Moon missions.

After centuries of mystery, scientists are edging closer to uncovering Leonardo da Vinci’s biological secrets. A massive 30-year effort has mapped his family across 21 generations, identified living male descendants, and even confirmed shared DNA markers that stretch back to the Renaissance. Meanwhile, excavations at a family tomb in Vinci could provide ancient remains for comparison, raising the possibility of reconstructing Leonardo’s genetic profile. Read more ›

For decades, relaxor ferroelectrics have powered everything from medical ultrasounds to sonar systems, yet their inner atomic structure remained a mystery—until now. Researchers have finally mapped their three-dimensional structure in unprecedented detail, uncovering hidden patterns in how electric charges are arranged at the nanoscale. The breakthrough not only challenges long-standing assumptions about how these materials behave but also allows scientists to refine the models used to design them. Read more ›
