The American dream can be put in a number, and that number has halved: 9 in 10 children born in 1940 grew up to out-earn their parents; for those born in the 1980s it is now about 1 in 2 — barely a coin toss

About 90 percent of American children born in 1940 grew up to earn more than their parents did at the same age. For children born in the 1980s, that share dropped to roughly 50 percent. That is the finding at the centre of The Fading American Dream, published in December 2016 by a team led ... Read more

Как Яндекс.Навигатор может вести водителей в никуда или в туда, но не туда

Приветствую, Хабр! В этой статье хочу описать практический кейс, который выглядит не как единичная ошибка на карте, а как системная проблема в работе навигационного сервиса от Яндекса. Речь идет о маршрутах в городе Дербент, где одна из дорог была перекрыта еще в марте 2026 года в связи с ремонтными работами (строительство сегмента центральной набережной города). Сейчас уже 23 июня 2026 года, прошло почти 4 месяца, но навигатор продолжает строить маршруты... Read more

Слишком просто, чтобы быть правдой? GPT-5.6 выдал доказательство 50-летней математической гипотезы

10 июля, на следующий день после публичного запуска GPT-5.6 Sol Ultra, OpenAI заявила, что ее флагманская модель нашла доказательство гипотезы о двойном покрытии циклами — одной из самых известных открытых задач теории графов, стоявшей около полувека. По словам сотрудника OpenAI Итана Найта, модель справилась меньше чем за час, задействовав 64 параллельных сабагента. Сразу стоит отметить, что пока доказательство только проходит проверку математиками — и на данном этапе больше интересен подход,... Read more

Итан Сигел, американский астрофизик-теоретик, научный журналист, автор рубрики “Спросите Итана” и один из пропагандистов современных научных знаний, утверждает, что, казалось бы, самый фундаментальный из всех законов, закон сохранения энергии, не работает в расширяющейся Вселенной...

Orbital Datacenter Plans Need an Environmental Review, FCC Told

Environmental groups want America's FCC "to slam the brakes on orbital datacenters," writes The Register. They're arguing for an environmental impact assessment for what could be 1 million satellites: Earthjustice, acting on behalf of DarkSky International, Environment America, and Public Employees for Environmental Responsibility (PEER), filed a petition this week... The filing doesn't target any single company. Instead, it asks the regulator to put the entire emerging orbital datacenter sector... Read more

В какой-то момент решил не просто читать ответы, а посчитать, откуда движки берут источники. Ожидал разную выдачу по одной теме — обычное дело для поисковиков.

The truth about 10,000 steps a day: the number wasn’t science, it was the brand name of a pedometer a Japanese company launched around the 1964 Tokyo Olympics — and later research finds real health benefits from as few as 4,000 steps

The daily step goal on hundreds of millions of wrists and phones did not come out of a laboratory. It came out of a marketing department. In the mid-1960s, riding the fitness buzz around the 1964 Tokyo Olympics, the Japanese clock and instrument company Yamasa released a step counter called the Manpo-kei. The name means, ...

Carl Jung argued we spend the first half of life building a mask and the second deciding what to do with it — whether we keep performing the role we polished for the world, or begin the harder work of integrating the parts it left out

Carl Jung split a human life down the middle and gave each half a different job. The first half, he said, is spent building something the world can see: a role, a reputation, a face that fits. The second half is spent deciding what to do with all of it. Do you keep playing the ... Read more Read more

Psychology says people who feel emotionally lighter within minutes of arriving at the ocean aren’t imagining it — studies show that simply looking at water can lower blood pressure and slow the heart rate in less than two minutes, before a single wave has been heard.

There is a particular feeling that arrives before the holiday has properly started. You step out of the car near the ocean, or reach the end of a street where the water suddenly opens in front of you, and your body seems to loosen before your mind has built an explanation. It can feel sentimental ... Read more Read more

In 2010, a Brigham Young University psychologist named Julianne Holt-Lunstad analyzed 148 separate studies of 300,000 people to compare the mortality risks of various lifestyle factors — and found that chronic loneliness increases a person’s risk of dying early by the same amount as smoking 15 cigarettes a day

In July 2010, three American psychology researchers — Julianne Holt-Lunstad and Timothy B. Smith of the Brigham Young University Department of Psychology in Provo, Utah, and J. Bradley Layton of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill Department of Epidemiology — published in the open-access journal PLoS Medicine the substantial 21-page meta-analytic paper “Social ...

In 1979, a Harvard psychologist named Ellen Langer took eight men in their late 70s to a retreat house redecorated exactly like 1959 — old magazines, radio broadcasts, and furniture — and asked them to live as their younger selves for a week, and by the end their eyesight, hearing, memory, and grip strength had measurably improved

In September 1979, at an old converted Catholic monastery in the wooded countryside of Peterborough, New Hampshire — approximately 90 kilometres northwest of Boston, and approximately six months before Ellen Jane Langer would become, in the specific spring of 1981, the first female professor to receive tenure in the history of the Harvard University Department ...

Psychology says the people who read everything on social media but never post anything are not the shy ones or the antisocial ones — they are usually the most careful observers in the room, and they have learned that watching quietly gives them information about other people that speaking would immediately take away

The population of people who use social media without posting is much larger than most active posters realise. The Pew Research Center’s 2019 study “Sizing Up Twitter Users,” based on a nationally representative sample of U.S. adult Twitter users, found that the median user posts just twice a month, while the most prolific 10 percent ...

It may be the one showing something quieter: the price of asking a capable model a question has collapsed.
