Nudging in a virtual supermarket for more animal welfare

It may be possible to change the purchasing behavior of consumers noticeably using some simple strategies. At least this is what a new study indicates. The researchers investigated the effect of nudging on the sale of products produced with high animal welfare standards in a virtual supermarket. Nudges are gentle prods or pushes designed to promote certain behaviors -- such as placing some products in more visible positions.

Превращаем виртуальный индикатор кислорода Subnautica в реальное устройство. Часть 1

Если подумать, то игр, действие которых разворачивается преимущественно или целиком под водой не так много. Да, я изучал подводный город Восторг в BioShock, управлял героями в Barotrauma и исследовал бесконечный океан в ABZÛ. Но ни одна из них не подарила мне столько эмоций, сколько Subnautica. Тот самый случай, когда садишься днем поиграть на час, а потом обнаруживаешь, что в реальном мире уже глубокая ночь.Сейчас в ранний доступ вышла вторая часть,... Read more

Расширенный аудит Windows. Или с чего начать расследование инцидентов?

Когда я начал разбираться в SOC (Security Operations Center), то довольно быстро понял, что стандартная Windows не дает особого понимания, что вообще внутри нее происходит. События входа, создание процессов, изменение политик – все это просто не пишется либо пишется в достаточно урезанном виде.Здесь я хотел бы показать (конечно, частично), каким вообще образом настроить аудит безопасности Windows 10/11 так, чтобы получить вполне читаемые и полезные события, которые можно будет использовать для...

Я написал свой self-hosted MDM для смешанного парка корпоративных устройств

Полгода назад я пришёл в новую организацию, и мне достался парк машин. Десяток на Windows, несколько маков, пачка линуксовых ноутов у разработчиков. Невыносимым было другое. Навешанные до меня политики и блокировки со стороны ИБ связывали руки так, что здраво администрировать домен было попросту нельзя: любое рутинное действие упиралось в чужие ограничения. Тогда я и полез искать решение, которое помогло бы мне нормально админить этот парк.Готового, что легло бы на мою... Read more

K2-18b is one of the most promising worlds for the search for extraterrestrial life, so astronomers conducted an unusually powerful radio survey using both the VLA and MeerKAT telescopes. Advanced software analyzed millions of signals, filtering out Earth-based interference and other false positives. No convincing artificial radio transmissions were found, but the project demonstrated a powerful new approach that will make future SETI searches faster and far more effective. Read more

A major review found that people who consumed the most chili peppers had a substantially higher risk of esophageal cancer, though the evidence was less clear for stomach and colorectal cancers. Researchers emphasize that the findings show an association, not proof of cause and effect, and that more research is needed to determine whether moderate consumption carries similar risks.

A deadly fungus has wiped out amphibian populations around the globe, yet some mysteriously recover. Researchers discovered that survivors develop powerful immune defenses while they are still tadpoles, giving them a head start before the fungus can attack after metamorphosis.

Going to the cinema, visiting museums, or attending concerts may do more than entertain. Researchers found that older adults who regularly participated in cultural activities tended to have bodies that functioned like those of people about three years younger. They believe stronger social ties, better mental health, and healthier habits could help explain the link, although more research is needed to determine whether cultural activities directly slow aging.

Four nearby white dwarf stars have been discovered hiding in plain sight beside brighter red dwarf companions. Hubble's ultraviolet observations finally revealed the long-hidden stellar remnants, including one just 25 light-years away that took nearly three decades to confirm.

Humans are often described as the planet's ultimate "super-predator," but wild animals do not fear every human the same way. After analyzing three decades of research, scientists found that animals become much more alert and spend less time feeding when people pose a real threat, such as hunters or fishers. In contrast, tourists, researchers, and other non-lethal humans trigger far weaker and less predictable reactions. Read more

Researchers say it is the first archaeological evidence of a Greek literary text being intentionally incorporated into the mummification process, adding a fascinating new chapter to the... Read more
