This isn’t the first time he’s taken a break—he skipped several events earlier this year for the same reaso
Making super tiny particles is tricky. Scientists usually start with big chunks of stuff and break them down, like sculpting from a block of ice. But this time, they flipped the script and built particles from scratch using teeny reactors instead. These reactors are like microscopic pipes that twist

Technology has always shaped work. When farm tools got better, fewer farmers were needed—but food got cheaper, and new jobs appeared in towns. Electricity did the same, and so did the internet. Dario Amodei now believes AI could create jobs, not just destroy them. He points to the Jevons Paradox: wh
The Tapajós River isn’t just water—it’s a lifeline. Locals fish there, raise families, and honor their ancestors. But now, big businesses see it as a highway for soy exports. In February, Indigenous groups took a stand by occupying a grain terminal in Santarém for weeks, blocking trucks under the sc
The U. S. Supreme Court recently ruled against strict racial gerrymandering rules, sparking anger from critics who call it a threat to minority voting power. But the real reason these rules are fading isn’t politics—it’s because America’s population itself is changing. More people now identify as mu
