ScienceDaily
ScienceDaily 1 place · today 06:44 EDT

A common constipation drug may have unexpectedly unlocked a new way to slow chronic kidney disease — a condition that affects millions and often leads to dialysis. In a clinical trial involving 150 patients, researchers found that lubiprostone, a medication normally used to treat constipation, helped preserve kidney function in people with moderate CKD. Scientists traced the effect to changes in gut bacteria that boosted production of spermidine, a compound linked to healthier mitochondria and reduced kidne

Apple Warns Canada's Bill C-22 Could Force Encryption Backdoors

Apple and Meta have opposed a Canadian bill that the companies say could force them to create backdoor access to encrypted user data, should it pass through the country's parliament. Proposed by Canada's ruling Liberal Party, Bill C-22 contains provisions that could be similar ​to a UK data access provision order sent to Apple last year, depending on how they are implemented. Back in February 2025, the British government demanded... Read more

Эпоха зомби-GPT

В профессиональных комьюнити всё чаще происходит одна и та же ситуация. Она выглядит обыденной, но от неё веет "зловещей долиной", «Чёрным зеркалом» и всем в таком духе. Вчера я сам оказался в эпицентре этого явления и понял: это уже не исключение, а новая реальность. Речь о том, как живые дискуссии постепенно превращаются в обмен сгенерированными нейросетями фрагментами, где иллюзия компетентности заменяет реальный опыт. В этой статье я подниму вопрос (но...

‘Google is not collaborative and not in the spirit of complying with this regulation’ – can the EU Commission strong-arm Google into levelling the playing field of the search engine market, and is this really in the interest of your privacy?

With the Digital Market Act (DMA), the EU made its intention to end Google's market dominance clear. While some are already cheering the push for our Search data to be shared with hopefully better alternative services, others fear this could create more harm than good. The truth may lie in the middle. Read more

Scientists have uncovered a tiny wall-dwelling spider named Pikelinia floydmuraria, inspired by Pink Floyd. Despite its size, it’s a fierce predator that hunts ants much larger than itself and helps reduce common urban pests like mosquitoes and flies. Its clever strategy of building webs near lights makes it especially effective. The discovery also raises new questions about its mysterious link to similar spiders in the Galápagos. Read more

Scientists have uncovered a surprising link between simple body movement and brain health: every time you tighten your abdominal muscles—even slightly—your brain may gently sway inside your skull. This subtle motion, triggered by pressure changes in connected blood vessels, appears to help circulate cerebrospinal fluid around the brain, potentially flushing out harmful waste. Read more

In a striking glimpse into extreme physics, scientists have captured the split-second chaos that unfolds when powerful laser flashes blast matter into a superheated plasma. By combining two cutting-edge lasers, researchers were able to track how copper atoms lose and regain electrons in trillionths of a second, creating and dissolving highly charged ions in a rapid, almost cinematic sequence.

A decades-old cosmic mystery has finally been cracked: the strange X-rays coming from the bright star gamma-Cas are caused by a hidden stellar companion feeding off it. Using cutting-edge observations from the XRISM space mission, astronomers discovered that an unseen white dwarf star is siphoning material from gamma-Cas, heating it to extreme temperatures and producing powerful X-ray emissions. This breakthrough resolves a puzzle that has baffled scientists since the 1970s... Read more

Two of the most dangerous fault systems on the U.S. West Coast may be more connected than scientists once thought.

This rare “synchronization” could dramatically increase the scale of a major West Coast disaster. Instead of one massive quake, multiple regions could be hit at nearly... Read more
