Researchers at New York University have made a groundbreaking discovery in the physics of Hula-Hooping. By experimenting with gyrating robots, they found that the shape of the robot’s body is crucial in keeping a Hula-Hoop aloft. The key factors are a “hip” slope that provides upward force and a “waist” curvature that keeps the hoop…
Mark Cuban, a well-known entrepreneur and investor, has expressed his willingness to fund a TikTok alternative built on Bluesky’s AT Protocol. This move comes as a response to the impending U.S. ban on TikTok, which is expected to take effect on Sunday. Cuban sees potential in a more open social web, powered by the AT…
Physicists at Caltech and New York University have made a groundbreaking discovery that could prove string theory to be the sole viable “theory of everything.” By unifying all fundamental forces of nature, including gravity, string theory could provide the long-sought quantum description of gravity that has eluded scientists for decades. The researchers used a novel…
Facebook’s parent company Meta has announced plans to scrap its fact-checking program, which was set up in 2016 to verify selected articles and posts. The move has sparked concerns about the spread of misinformation online, with experts warning that it could have serious consequences for public discourse and democracy.

Sonos, a leading speaker manufacturer, is undergoing significant changes after its CEO, Patrick Spence, left the company. The departure comes amidst a tumultuous year for the brand, marked by a buggy software update that crippled its products and led to a decline in sales. Interim CEO Tom Conrad has taken the reins, vowing to restore…
Physicists at ETH Zurich and the University of Grenoble have developed a new theoretical framework that helps understand how quantum processes are limited by classical space-time. The researchers have created no-go theorems that limit quantum processes such as quantum indefinite causal order (ICO) in space-time causality. These theorems demonstrate that ICO processes can be embedded…
Climate scientists have announced that Earth’s average temperature has surpassed 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels for the first time, marking a significant milestone in the fight against global warming. This development serves as a stark reminder that the world is moving into dangerous territory, with potentially devastating consequences for ecosystems, sea levels, and human societies. The…
