People valued their hats so deeply that robbery victims sometimes begged to keep them over money. In a world where going bareheaded signaled poverty or madness, hats shaped identity, respect, and even family discipline.

People who read books for as little as half an hour a day tend to live longer than non-readers, according to a Yale study of 3,635 older Americans followed for 12 years

Book readers in a large American study lived longer than non-readers, and the gap did not close when the researchers stripped out the usual explanations. In 2016, three Yale School of Public Health researchers published a study, “A chapter a day”, drawing on 3,635 participants who were followed for up to 12 years. After adjustment ...

Юзабилити-аудит сайта: где интерфейс заканчивается и начинаются системные проблемы

Привет, Хабр!Меня зовут Алексей Постригайло, я старший партнер ИТ-интегратора «Энсайн». Больше 20 лет я занимаюсь системной интеграцией, разработкой и управлением цифровыми проектами — от архитектуры и внедрения до поддержки и развития уже работающих систем.В этой статье хочу поговорить о вещи, которую часто недооценивают на старте проектов — юзабилити-аудите сайта.

Research Universities Are Admitting Fewer PhDs, a Bad Sign For Science

An anonymous reader quotes a report from the New York Times: The number of students admitted to Ph.D. programs this fall dropped 15 percent from the previous year, according to data from over 50 top research universities, raising fears that the nation's capacity to produce new science could be diminished. The decline is driven, in part, by a chaotic and unpredictable federal funding environment under the Trump administration, as federal... Read more

Как один отказ бизнесу сэкономил компании 10 миллионов рублей

За свой трудовой путь я несколько раз говорил бизнесу «нет». Каждый раз это было неприятно, потому что бизнес приходит к ИТ не за отказами, а за решениями.

И о нем я сейчас хочу рассказать.Жизненный кейсБлизился конец проекта, мы уже практически завершили внедрение нового биллинга. Бюджет был распределен, а команды готовились к запуску.

Creatine is best known as a muscle-building supplement, but scientists are now investigating whether it could also help treat depression by boosting the brain's energy supply. A new review examined five randomized clinical trials involving 238 participants and found mixed results. Two studies, both involving women with major depressive disorder, reported that adding creatine to standard treatment improved symptoms, while three others found no meaningful benefit. Read more

Could something as simple as vitamin C help support a healthier aging brain? In a study of more than 2,000 older adults in Japan, researchers found that people with lower vitamin C levels in their blood also tended to have less gray matter and weaker connections in a key brain network involved in memory, attention, and other cognitive functions.

A surprising discovery is overturning a long-held assumption about how the brain’s movement center works. Researchers found that two key cerebellar cell types—thought to be tightly linked—often don’t behave in predictable ways, even though one directly influences the other. The finding suggests scientists may have been relying on the wrong signals when studying disorders such as dystonia, ataxia, and tremor. Read more

A new quantum device can generate precisely controlled bursts of sound-like particles, or phonons, by forcing electrons through an ultra-thin crystal at extremely low temperatures. The surprising behavior pushes beyond the limits predicted by current theories, suggesting scientists need to rethink how energy moves through advanced materials. In the future, the breakthrough could lead to phonon lasers, faster communications, improved medical technologies, and powerful new sensing systems. Read more

A decades-old puzzle about water has finally been unraveled. Researchers found that water trapped in tiny nanoscale spaces is not inherently more reactive. Instead, the intense pressures created inside these microscopic gaps explain most of the effect, while the surrounding material can further enhance water's chemistry if it interacts with the reaction products.
