Scientists have uncovered the true boundary of the Milky Way’s star-forming region using stellar “age mapping.” They found a telltale U-shaped pattern showing that star formation drops sharply around 35,000–40,000 light-years from the center. Beyond that, stars are mostly migrants, slowly drifting outward rather than forming in place. The discovery gives a long-sought answer to where our galaxy’s stellar nursery really ends.

Осенью 2025 года заработал новый закон о персданных. Ввели новые требования и штрафы, достигающие 15 000 000 рублей.И если в ноябре того года «письма счастья» были единичными, то теперь РКН запустил автоматический бот и проверки стали массовыми. Я как юрист уже успел насмотреться всякого от РКН. Давайте на примере реальных предписаний разберем, как проверить себя и свою компанию, чтобы не влететь. Читать далее Read more ›

In the early weeks of the Covid pandemic, in those days when public spaces emptied and hospitals filled up, I used to see this magazine cover from 2017 being passed around social media. The story was a familiar one to me, because I was the one who had written it: Read more ›

Framework has just launched a new graphics module featuring the RTX 5070 mobile 12GB, and it costs a cool $1,200, representing a 72% raise in pricing over the 8GB variant, that's $699. Both GPUs are identical apart from the memory capacity (and bandwidth), but Framework says pricing is out of its control. Read more ›

Привет, я Дмитрий, занимаюсь развитием LLMaaS. Перед нашей командой встала задача подбора «средней» языковой модели с примерно 9B параметров для обслуживания клиентских задач: оперативные чат-боты, саммаризация документов, генерация кода и аналитика на длинных контекстах. В таких сценариях критичны не только качество ответов, но и скорость, и стоимость инференса — ведь модель должна работать на одном GPU и при этом выдерживать заданный поток запросов.Классические подходы — взять проверенную плотную модель в Read more ›

«Давай на 1-on-1 обсудим задачи, блокеры и что планируешь делать дальше».Даже не звучит как нормальная рабочая встреча. А на практике часто получается полчаса нуднейшего созвона, где сотрудник молчит, руководитель говорит 80% времени, а после у обоих остаётся ощущение, что прогуляться вместо этой встречи было бы полезнее.Про прогулку — это, кстати, справедливо для подавляющего большинства встреч. Но 1-on-1 всё‑таки можно сделать чуть лучше.Для руководителей IT‑команд, которые сами проводят 1-on-1 и хотят... Read more ›

A routine blood marker tied to inflammation may reveal Alzheimer’s risk years in advance. Scientists found that higher neutrophil levels—part of the body’s first immune response—were linked to a greater chance of developing dementia. The discovery suggests this common lab value could help flag at-risk individuals before symptoms appear. It also raises the possibility that immune cells themselves may be fueling the disease.

A newly discovered virus hiding inside a common gut bacterium could help explain one of medicine’s long-standing mysteries: why a microbe found in both healthy people and cancer patients is linked to colorectal cancer. The research suggests that the interaction between bacteria and the viruses they carry may be key to understanding disease risk. It may even lead to future screening tests that detect cancer risk earlier. Read more ›

Scientists at UC Irvine have found a way to potentially reverse age-related vision loss by targeting the ELOVL2 “aging gene” and restoring vital fatty acids in the retina. Their experiments in mice show that supplementing with specific polyunsaturated fatty acids—not just DHA—can restore visual function and even reverse cellular aging signs. Read more ›

A new virus-fighting plastic film could transform everyday surfaces into invisible defenders against disease. Instead of relying on chemicals, this flexible material is covered in microscopic pillars that physically stretch viruses until they burst, rendering them harmless. In lab tests, it destroyed or disabled about 94% of virus particles within an hour, showing impressive effectiveness. Read more ›

A remarkably preserved, mummified reptile from 289 million years ago is rewriting what we know about how animals first breathed on land. This tiny creature, Captorhinus aguti, reveals the earliest known version of the rib-powered breathing system used by modern reptiles, birds, and mammals — a crucial innovation that helped vertebrates thrive outside water.

A bizarre crocodile relative from the age of dinosaurs is rewriting what scientists thought they knew about ancient reptiles. This poodle-sized creature, called Sonselasuchus cedrus, appears to have started life walking on all fours before shifting to a two-legged stance as it matured—an unusual transformation rarely seen in the fossil record.

Scientists have mapped how Earth’s deepest mantle is being deformed—and the results point to long-lost tectonic plates buried thousands of kilometers underground. Using a massive global dataset of seismic waves, they found that most deformation happens in regions where these ancient slabs are thought to reside. The findings confirm long-standing theories but, for the first time, show the pattern on a global scale. It’s a major step toward understanding how... Read more ›

A breakthrough in brain-inspired computing could make today’s energy-hungry AI systems far more efficient. Researchers have engineered a new nanoelectronic device using a modified form of hafnium oxide that mimics how neurons process and store information at the same time. Unlike conventional chips that waste energy moving data back and forth, this device operates with ultra-low power—potentially slashing energy use by up to 70%. Read more ›

A new minimally invasive procedure may help people keep weight off after stopping popular drugs like Ozempic and semaglutide—something most patients struggle with. In a clinical trial, those who underwent a technique called duodenal mucosal resurfacing regained far less weight compared to others after discontinuing the medication. The procedure works by renewing the lining of the upper small intestine, potentially “resetting” metabolism and preserving the benefits of weight loss. Read more ›

Scientists have identified two specific types of brain cells that behave differently in people with depression, offering a clearer picture of what is happening inside the brain. By analyzing donated brain tissue with advanced genetic tools, the researchers found changes in neurons linked to mood and stress, as well as in immune-related microglia cells. These differences point to disruptions in key brain systems and reinforce that depression is rooted in... Read more ›
