MIT scientists have identified cysteine — an amino acid found in foods like meat, dairy, beans, and nuts — as a potent trigger for intestinal repair. In mice, a cysteine-rich diet activated immune cells that released healing signals, helping stem cells rebuild damaged intestinal tissue after radiation exposure. Researchers say the discovery could eventually lead to new dietary therapies for cancer patients suffering from treatment-related gut damage.

EU officials said flagged products repeatedly reappeared, sellers could evade safeguards, and AliExpress's recommendation and ad systems helped amplify dangerous goods. Ars Technica reports: For...

Программирование как экспериментальная метафизика

Есть вопросы, которые кажутся принадлежащими разным мирам. «Должен ли квадрат наследовать прямоугольнику?» — вопрос инженера за обедом. «Реальны ли универсалии или существуют лишь единичные вещи?» — вопрос, из-за которого в средневековых университетах ломали карьеры. Тезис статьи в том, что это один и тот же вопрос, и что программист, выбирая между интерфейсом и абстрактным классом, между наследованием и композицией, между актором и разделяемой памятью, совершает — обычно не подозревая — акт...

Dark matter may be far more complicated than scientists once believed. A new study suggests it could consist of at least two different kinds of particles that slowly separate over time, with heavier particles sinking toward the centers of galaxies and lighter ones drifting outward. This simple idea could explain several puzzling cosmic observations that have frustrated astronomers for years, from unusually diffuse dwarf galaxies to surprisingly dense dark matter... Read more

A new book claims AI has been built on a flawed assumption dating back to Alan Turing's famous 1950 paper. Peter J.

He believes this makes true human-level AI impossible, regardless of how large language models become. Read more
