Together, the two renewable sources generated a record 531 terawatt-hours (TWh) of electricity during the month, 54 TWh more than gas plants generated globally, at 477 TWh...
Five years ago, in April 2021, gas generation was almost identical.

This week saw the annual WWDC from Apple. The week before, it was Google I/O – both are software-focused events, so there wasn’t any new hardware. So, we turn to older models instead. The Samsung Galaxy S26+ is not going to win any popularity contests, but it’s a solid middle-of-the-road smartphone that offers a good balance of features, support and price. Right now, the 512GB model is down to $900... Read more ›

Ранее я публиковал на Хабре относительно успешную статью «Негостеприимные красные карлики. Об ультрафиолетовой зоне обитаемости». В ней я упоминал, почему поблизости от многочисленных звёзд спектрального класса М (красных карликов) маловероятно возникновение жизни земного типа (на основе нуклеиновых кислот), поскольку высокая и нерегулярная активность звезды в ультрафиолетовом спектре не оставляет окна для образования клеточных организмов.

But as string theory grew increasingly elaborate — and experimentally unreachable — many physicists lost hope. Now, some researchers are revisiting the theory from first principles. In a paper in press... Read more ›
