Have you ever thought about how doctors extract information from chest X-rays? Usually, they follow fixed rules to label images. But these labels often aren't the best. They sometimes just show if something's there or not. Even smart computers using these rules face problems. Now, scientists have a
In Pokémon Scarlet and Violet, the weather plays a crucial role in battles and evolution. Rain, for instance, can transform some Pokémon into powerful forms. So, where and when does it rain in this game? Well, unlike real life, you can't predict exact rain times. It just happens randomly as you expl
This weekend, college football fans are in for a treat with seven games scheduled for Week 12. The action starts early with Louisiana Tech facing Western Kentucky. The clash begins at noon and is a crucial one for both teams. Western Kentucky, currently tied for the top spot in Conference USA, will
Echinoderms are a group of sea creatures known for their unique bodies and rich fossil history. One of their standout features is Mutable Collagenous Tissue (MCT), a special kind of connective tissue that can change shape quickly. This makes it hard to trace their evolution in the geological record.
Space storms can cause big changes in the magnetosphere and ionosphere, leading to ground-induced currents that matter a lot for both engineering and science. Right now, we use big networks of ground magnetometers to measure this, usually set up at special observatory sites. But what if we could mak
Hey there! If you're planning a trip out west this weekend, you might want to bundle up and pack your patience. A cold front is causing big trouble, with seven states bracing for heavy snowfall. We're talking up to 24 inches in some areas! Washington, Montana, Idaho, Oregon, Wyoming, Utah, and New M
You know how some medicines don't work as well when you take them by mouth? That's the case with Asenapine maleate, a drug used to treat mental health issues. The problem is, our livers break it down too quickly, so hardly any reaches the blood. Scientists have been trying to fix this by using tiny
Ever wondered what it's like when athletes step out of their comfort zones and into the spotlight? Well, meet Anna Hall, a heptathlete who's doing just that with her debut in the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit issue. This isn't your average athletic feat; it's a whole new ball game—or rather, beach gam
Trump once promised to close the Department of Education, but was he serious? Experts say it's not just about the wall anymore. Eight years later, Trump's first term showed some of his wild ideas became real policies. Heritage Foundation's document, Project 2025, might be influencing Trump's educati
Large Language Models (LLMs) have revolutionized many fields, but they also bring concerns about made-up information, especially in science. One way to tackle this is with Retrieval-augmented Generation (RAG). RAG lets LLMs access data and documents they weren't trained on, helping them reason bette
