China launches ambitious collaboration to map primate brains—including ours 25-year plan will tap brain-mapping prowess in two dozen countries to visualize the organ in unprecedented detail

Set to run for 25 years, the effort will produce multiomic maps not just for monkeys but for developing, adult, aging, and diseased human brains from diverse populations. https://scim.ag/4o44CDP

Analogue speech recognition based on physical computing - Nature A temporal-signal processor based on two in-materia computing hardware platforms—reconfigurable nonlinear-processing units (RNPUs) and analogue in-memory computing (AIMC)—is used for both feature extr...

Zolfagharinejad and coauthors show that analogue hardware can “hear.” Using nonlinear silicon units for cochlea-like feature extraction and in-memory chips for classification, they achieve near-software speech recognition at millisecond latency and ultra-low energy. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

One of these rich dudes invested in a food company with all proceeds going to kids in need. The other started Sundance Institute, boosting the lives of countless artists. Hey modern rich dudes, don't be a typical greedy AI crypto-prick, be like these two.

Modder injects AI dialogue into 2002’s Animal Crossing using memory hack Unofficial mod lets classic Nintendo GameCube title use AI chatbots with amusing results.

By programming the AI to roleplay as villagers growing aware of their debt situation, and giving them a shared memory to track conversations, the modder orchestrated a scenario where the residents began to organize against their shared landlord.

SurFF: a foundation model for surface exposure and morphology across intermetallic crystals - Nature Computational Science A foundation machine learning model, SurFF, enables DFT-accurate predictions of surface energies and morphologies in intermetallic catalysts, achieving over 105-fold acceleration for high-throughput m...

Most industrial reactions happen on catalyst surfaces, but predicting which surfaces actually form is costly. Jun Yin and coauthors present SurFF, a foundation model that predicts surface exposure across intermetallic crystals with DFT-level accuracy, 100k× faster. www.nature.com/articles/s43...

"I wish life was not so short. Languages take such a time, and so do all the things one wants to know about."

Kinetic data becomes spottier for mid-size organic molecules with heteroatoms, worse if you bring plasmas to the mix (to mimic lightning as in Urey and Miller's experiment)

Paris said au revoir to cars. Air pollution maps reveal a dramatic change. Air pollution fell substantially as the city restricted car traffic and made way for parks and bike lanes.

Beeindruckende Transformation. #Paris

It is very sad that I read eels and my first thought was electron energy loss spectroscopy instead of actual eels.

After an in depth analysis, Dumbledore's strategy can be summarized as: "the magic kid will figure things out in the end even if I hide critical information from him"

One of the things that *actually*, *truly* makes America great is NASA. And Trump has slit its throat.

Comic. [two people in labcoats look at body pierced with blade draped over bench] PERSON 1: We found him lying uncomformably on the lab bench. I wonder if the iron-rich intrusion in his back is related. PERSON 2 with ponytail: It could be clastic. Maybe a rift opened in his body, and the intrusive material later fell into the hole.

what can you expect from the house of actually?

My personal experience is that physics departments in the US tend to cluster around a few disciplines (particle physics, condensed matter, and astrophysics) leaving other generally more applied fields (plasma, fluids, materials...) to other departments, which then capture students and funding.
