## Sleep, Longevity, and the Optimized Life

In shadowed hours where the body mends its fray, Between six-point-four and seven-point-eight we lay, Too little starves the brain and heart of vital fire, Too much invites the creeping rust of slow decay. The organs tick like clocks that neither rush nor stall— Immune, lung, cortex all obey the measured call. Yet smart folk strain to listen when the data speaks, Their pattern-seeking minds outrun what silence seeks. For in the quiet dark where healing quietly grows, We find the ancient rhythm everyone else forgoes. Old age, Confucius claimed, is pleasant, gently eased— If first we learn to rest before the mind’s deceived.

• Between 6.4 and 7.8 hours of sleep may aid healthy aging, longevity: New study of half a million people reveals both insufficient and excessive sleep accelerate biological aging across nearly every organ, with the sweet spot linked to lower disease risk and greater longevity.

• Why Smart Folks Are Terrible Listeners | Psychology Today: High intelligence and status often correlate with faster pattern recognition, premature conclusions, and poorer listening—qualities that ironically hinder the very reflection needed for healthy life choices.

• Shark Tank’s Kevin O’Leary warns Gen Z founders to stop glorifying hustle culture: The investor calls 18-hour workdays “sheer stupidity,” urging young founders to optimize through sleep, nutrition, and exercise rather than romanticizing burnout as a badge of honor.

## The AI Recursion Frontier

When silicon dreams begin to mend their own design, Recursive loops that birth yet sharper, deeper mind, What once was tool now turns its gaze upon itself— A mirror forging mirrors, boundless, boundless wealth. From local labs where Ollama hums in quiet grace, To labs that chase unbounded open-ended space, The coder’s agent reads, suggests, and then rewrites, While protein models whisper hidden folds to light. Yet every gain demands we ask what we have lost— If explanation fails, at what point is the cost? For in this mirrored age where models learn to teach, We seek the human hand that still knows how to reach.

• What happens when AI starts building itself? | TechCrunch: Richard Socher’s $650 million Recursive Superintelligence startup aims to create an open-ended, autonomously self-improving AI that can research and redesign itself indefinitely while still shipping real products.

## Geopolitics and the Dragon’s Shadow

From Beijing halls where Xi and Trump exchange their lines, To Taiwan’s firm reply that sovereignty still shines, The old Celestial Kingdom tests the new Republic’s nerve— While rockets rise and tariffs twist what trade deserves. In lunar photos cosmic rays paint phantom lights, Yet deeper still the human game of power fights. One moment arms are promised, then withdrawn with care, The next a billion-dollar rocket IPO takes air. Beneath it all the working class demands its bread, While therapy culture whispers “blame the world instead.” In such a time the careful eye must learn to see How ancient rivalries wear modern livery.

## Therapy, Grievance, and the Modern Mind

We speak with polished tongues of boundaries, trauma, blame, Yet grow more brittle even as we learn to name the pain. The therapist becomes accomplice to the perfect tale— Where every slight’s a violation, every wound a grail. Forgotten is the harder art of owning one’s own part, Of asking “Where did I contribute?” with an honest heart. From feminist pioneers who warned of bias’ cost, To unsung heroes charting paths that we have since forgot, The culture whispers comfort while it quietly divides— Turning neighbors into toxins, friends to toxic sides.

• Is Therapy Tearing Us Apart? - by Jonathan Alpert: Modern therapy culture too often reinforces grievance, externalizes blame, and trades genuine insight for satisfying stories that keep people psychologically stuck.

• My unsung hero of science: Carolyn Wood Sherif, pioneer of feminist psychology who foresaw the risks of scientific bias: The psychologist behind the Robbers Cave experiment warned decades ago about bias in research design and interpretation—insights still urgently needed today.

## Cosmic Mysteries and Anomalous Signals

Above the lunar dust strange blue lights once appeared, On film untouched by any lens, yet perfectly adhered. Not UFOs, says Avi Loeb, but cosmic rays at play— Yet deeper still the sky yields objects strange by day. Anomalous detections swarm the Rubin alert stream, Single points that will not orbit, trailing unknown dream. While red mud holds the metals hypersonic dreams require, And unconscious brains still parse the words that we conspire. In every realm—above, below, within, without— The universe keeps whispering what we cannot yet shout.

• We Should Not Mistake Cosmic-Rays for UFOs! | by Avi Loeb | May, 2026 | Medium: Apollo mission images showing mysterious lunar lights are best explained as cosmic ray strikes on film, especially since Artemis II saw no anomalies with superior cameras.

Avi Loeb5 min read·2 hours ago -- 5 Listen Share Press enter or click to view image in full sizeMysterious blue lights above the lunar surface were recorded in cameras used by the Apollo mission astronauts. (Image credit: NASA) The UFO files released here by the U.S. Department of War on May 8, 2026 included images from the Apollo 12 and 17 missions which show unexplained lights above the lunar horizon. However, as a sanity check we should remember that the Artemis II astronauts took last month thousands of photographs of the dark side of the Moon which did not show any strange lights around it. The astronauts noticed 6 flashes of light which are likely the result of impacts of meteoroids on the surface of the Moon. Indeed, the statistics of such impacts, as documented here, forecasts 6 impacts of objects more massive than 100 grams during the hour-long flight of the Orion capsule over the lunar dark side. Such impacts would have generated exactly the energy output of about 10^{11} ergs recorded by the Artemis II astronauts at the typical impact speed of tens of kilometers per second. Since nothing anomalous was recorded by the Artemis II astronauts using cameras that are far better than those used by the Apollo astronauts, it is most reasonable to conclude that there are no UFOs around the Moon. In that case, what was the origin of the lights recorded near the Moon by the Apollo cameras? This question can be easily answered by looking through the rich set of Apollo images documented in a dedicated website here. Some of these images show that the same blue lights recorded above the lunar surface appear also on the film in regions outside of the lens coverage area. This suggests cosmic-rays as the origin of the blue lights. The lunar camera film must have been exposed to energetic particles which left a mark on it. The Moon lacks an atmosphere or a magnetosphere and so its surface is exposed to a cosmic-ray flux which is 200 times larger than the surface of Earth.

Credit: Colorado State University/Manfredo et al. How people view and treat wild animals can vary dramatically from one part of the world to another. In the first international study of wildlife values, research led by Colorado State University found a distinct difference between Latin American views toward wildlife and those in the United States and Canada—and traced the divergence in views to European colonization centuries ago. The study shows that Latin America regards wildlife as part of the social community, deserving of rights like humans—a value the researchers call \"mutualism\"—while the United States and Canada largely view wildlife as a resource for use by humans—a value they label \"domination.\" These views align with the colonizing countries that established institutions in the Western Hemisphere: Britain in North America and Spain and Portugal in Latin America. Britain and northern Europe were more domination oriented than southern Europe, which favored mutualism. This research, published in Nature Sustainability, reinforces past studies showing that colonizing institutions can help explain... [Truncated]",

Recommended Video Elon Musk’s rocket and satellite giant, which recently merged with his AI startup, expects to price its IPO as soon as June 11, with a trading debut on the Nasdaq due to follow the next day under the ticker SPCX, sources told Reuters. Before that, SpaceX could file publicly for the IPO as early as Wednesday, with a roadshow kicking off on June 4, the report said. The prior timeline put the IPO near the end of June. The company had already filed confidentially and is seeking to raise up to $75 billion at a valuation of $1.75 trillion. That would surpass the current record holder for the biggest IPO ever: Saudi Aramco, which $29 billion raised at a $1.7 trillion valuation in 2019. Since its founding in 2002, SpaceX has taken over the market. It claimed more than 80% of global rocket launches last year and has over 10,000 Starlink satellites in orbit, providing space-based internet connections to businesses and militaries. SpaceX is a top launch provider for NASA... [Truncated]",

So far, I have not discovered a new comet or an interstellar object. But I have discovered something else: the sky is full of anomalous objects with no clear picture of their nature. Every night, the Rubin alert stream contains a surprisingly large number of anomalous objects with unusual morphology, extended structure, trail-like shape, diffuse coma, or other properties that make them stand out immediately from ordinary stars and galaxies. At the same time, many of these objects exist in a kind of gray zone: they are interesting enough to attract attention, but not sufficiently linked or confirmed to become official discoveries. The reason for this uncertainty is simple: they have only a single detection per night, which keeps them out of the pool of moving objects. Moving objects usually have at least two detections with two pairs of coordinates. That is enough to start tracing an object’s motion from one point in the sky to another and begin constructing a preliminary orbit. After that, the moving candidate can be cross-matched against the Minor Planet Center database to determine whether the object is already known or potentially new. This is exactly how Rubin’s Solar System pipeline works. And in many ways, it works extremely well, having detected thousands of new asteroids over the past couple of months. Single-detection objects are not that lucky. They do not proceed into the standard Solar System pipeline and instead remain anomalous or unresolved detections inside the alert stream. I started collecting these anomalous objects with the hope that more data would later appear to help identify them before publishing. But after reading Avi Loeb’s recent article on anomalous trans-Neptunian brightness measurements, where anomalous cases outnumbered clean textbook examples, I realized that the existence of anomalies is itself scientifically important. Below, I show six examples of anomalous single-detection objects that appeared i... [Truncated]",

As someone who grew up in abject poverty, I have long stayed in touch with parents and individuals who live paycheck to paycheck. Some are Democrats. Some are Republicans. Some are fiercely independent. Most are facing seemingly insurmountable obstacles tied to the cost of living, rising crime, and an increasingly bleak future for their children. These Americans, who make up the vast majority of our population, have grown wary of leaders representing both political parties who float high above them and their increasing misery in bubbles of entitlement, luxury and purposeful ignorance.

Roy Rochlin—Getty Images Gen Z founders chasing their big break are facing a modern-day catch-22: protect their mental health or sacrifice work-life balance in pursuit of success. Recommended Video Shark Tank investor and millionaire Kevin O’Leary has clear advice for Gen Z founders weighing how to spend their time. “The worst advice I hear young founders talk about all the time is that they want to work 18 hours a day. How stupid is that?” O’Leary said in a video on <a href=\"https://www.instagram.com/reel/DUGW8dplTCw/?igsh=amRwbTVjb3k1dzhn\">Instagram</a>, sporting a red, cheetah-print top and floral pants. The admonishment comes as everyday workers are increasingly expected to work longer hours. The 996—a 9 a.m. to 9 p.m., six-day-a-week work schedule that was outlawed in China in 2021—has been newly glorified in Silicon Valley. AI startup Rilla told candidates last year not to bother applying unless they’re excited to work more than 70 hours a week. But contrary to popular belief, working hard does not mean neglecting to take care of yourself, O’Leary said. “This idea that you don’t get any sleep, as if it’s good for investors, is sheer stupidity,” he said.

Bill Cassidy (R-La.) speaks to media on the first day of early voting on May 2 in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. | Tyler Kaufman/Getty Images By Adam Wren05/16/2026 11:31 AM EDTUpdated: 05/16/2026 11:50 AM EDT As Bill Cassidy fights for his political life, he’s refusing to acknowledge the political gravity surrounding him. Five years after he cast a vote to convict President Donald Trump in his impeachment trial over Trump’s election denialism and the Jan. 6 Capitol riot, Cassidy is facing a challenge from Trump-backed Rep. Julia Letlow (R-La.) and GOP State Treasurer John Fleming in a crucial Louisiana primary today that marks the next stop on Trump’s revenge tour. In an interview with POLITICO on Saturday, Cassidy sounded disconnected from the reality he faces, frequently referring only to Letlow as “my opponent” while ignoring Fleming, and complaining about the state’s shift to a closed party primary back in 2024. If Trump’s push to oust Cassidy succeeds, it could unleash another rogue in the Senate with a vendetta against Trump and nothing left to lose. But Cassidy claims he’s not thinking about that. Asked whether he would be a thorn in Trump’s side in his remaining months in office should he go down and join other YOLO Republicans, Cassidy sounded defiant. “I’m going to win today,” Cassidy said. “I may go into a runoff.

In history, and especially the history of war, it’s different. Wars take much less time to start than you think they will, and last much longer than you thought they could. Looking back on the first few months of my writing about the full-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, I consistently underestimated how long the war would last. At first, like most Western intelligence agencies, I assumed Ukraine would be overrun. Then, when I realized the Ukrainians had won the Battle of Kyiv and halted the Russian advance, I expected there would be a ceasefire. It took me until the end of the year to use the word stalemate. Four years, two months, and two weeks since it began, the war rages on. I know of no one who at the outset foresaw a war that will soon have lasted as long as World War I.

Head here for tickets. Get tickets here I begin to wonder if I have made the same mistake with the U.S. war against Iran. When Operation Epic Fury was launched on February 28, I was confident of one thing: that it would be a short war. Well, here we are, nearly 10 weeks later. Of course, you may be one of those cheerful optimists who thinks the war is already over—indeed, that it ended with the ceasefire announced on April 8. But a ceasefire is not a peace agreement. Consider the events of the past week. On April 29, leaked American diplomatic cables revealed that the administration was exploring the possibility of a new international coalition to restore freedom of navigation in the Strait of Hormuz.

What began as an ordinary disappointment—a canceled dinner and a text returned too late—had become something far larger and far more charged. The friend was now “toxic.” The exchange had become a “violation of boundaries.” The hurt itself had been elevated into “trauma.” She had screenshots and a polished story about what the episode revealed about her friend’s pathology. What she didn’t have was introspection. She was no longer asking the most psychologically useful questions: Could this have been carelessness rather than ill intent? Was the reaction intensified by other things that may have been going on? Had she contributed in any way to the conflict? The language she brought into the room gave her something powerful: certainty. But certainty is often the enemy of insight. (Hanover Square Press) This scene has become one of the defining features of my work as a psychotherapist, and it sits at the center of the argument in my forthcoming book, Therapy Nation: Too much of modern therapy culture keeps people stuck, reinforcing grievance, externalizing blame, and turning everyone else into the reason their lives are so miserable. The problem begins with my own field. For years, my profession has trained clinicians to elevate validation over challenge, affirmation over interpretation, and emotional fluency over the harder work of behavioral change. What has followed is the rise of grievance culture dressed up as psychological sophistication. Too many therapists now function less as clinicians than as reinforcers of the most self-protective interpretation available, teaching patients to locate the problem everywhere but themselves. Of course it is your boss’s fault. Of course your colleague is toxic. Of course your ex is a narcissist. Of course the world keeps wounding you. In this softened therapeutic frame, f... [Truncated]",

The two wooden cabins before her rattle with shrieks and cries from excited 11-year-old boys. They have been split into two groups of 11 and encouraged to bond. Over three long, laborious weeks in the summer of 1954, Wood Sherif watches as these boys become enthusiastically dedicated to their allocated groups. When instructed to compete for resources, they grow hostile towards their opponents. The experiment descends into inter-group violence and aggression. This research was among the first naturalistic psychological studies to show how group formation can lead to prejudice and intense conflict. It is considered a classic study upon which the subdiscipline of social psychology – how mind and behaviour are influenced by the presence of other people – was born. Wood Sherif should have made her academic career from it. But in many ways, scientific research is a culture, a club. There are people with the power to warmly invite others to participate, and others who are intentionally kept out. Many female scientists have suffered because of this power imbalance.

Russell Brandom 12:57 PM PDT · May 14, 2026 Richard Socher has been a major figure in AI for some time, best known for founding the early chatbot startup You.com and, before that, his work on ImageNet. Now he’s joining the current generation of research-focused AI startups with Recursive Superintelligence, a San Francisco-based startup that came out of stealth on Wednesday with $650 million in funding. Socher is joined in the new venture by a cohort of prominent AI researchers, including Peter Norvig and Cresta co-founder Tim Shi. Together, they’re working to create a recursively self-improving AI model, one that can autonomously identify its own weaknesses and redesign itself to fix them, without human involvement — a long-held holy grail of contemporary AI research. I spoke with him on Zoom after the launch, digging into Recursive’s unique technical approach and why he doesn’t think of this new project as a neolab, the informal term for a new generation of AI startups that prioritize research over building products. This interview has been edited for length and clarity. We hear a lot about recursion these days! It feels like a very common goal across different labs. What do you see as your unique approach? Our unique approach is to use open-endedness to get to recursive self-improvement, which no one has yet achieved. It’s an elusive goal for a lot of people. A lot of people already assume it happens when you just do auto-research. You know, you can take AI and ask it to make some other thing better, which could be a machine learning system, or just a letter that you write, or, you know, whatever it might be, right? But that’s not recursive self-improvement. That’s just improvement... [Truncated]",

New research suggests the brain doesn’t wait for consciousness to get started. While patients lay fully sedated during surgery, neurons deep in the hippocampus were sorting words, reading meaning, and anticipating what would come next in the story. INSIDE THE OPERATING ROOM The work comes from a team led by Dr. Sameer Sheth, a neurosurgeon and professor at Baylor College of Medicine (BCM). His patients were already in the operating room for epilepsy surgery. Before doctors removed a piece of the temporal lobe to stop the seizures, the team slid a hair-thin probe called Neuropixels into the hippocampus, a memory hub buried inside that tissue. The probe records the chatter of hundreds of individual neurons at once. Across seven patients, the team captured signals from 651 cells while patients were fully under general anesthesia – held there with propofol, a common surgical sedative. LISTENING FOR ODDBALLS The first test was simple. Speakers near the patient played a steady run of identical tones, with an occasional different pitch slipped in – an oddball. Awake brains notice these. Did anesthetized ones? It turns out, they did. Most cells responded to the tones, and a meaningful chunk fired differently when the oddball arrived. The hippocampus, despite sitting far from the brain’s sound-processing center, was tracking the pattern. A SIGNAL THAT GREW What surprised the team came next. Over the 10 minutes of the experiment, the response to the oddball grew stronger, not weaker. The brain’s ability to tell the unusual tone from the regular one had improved. That kind of change is normally called learning. No one had observed a human hippocampus doing it under anesthesia, and an earlier review of the field wouldn’t have predicted it. The result caught the team off guard. “Even when patients are fully anesthetized, their brains continue to analyze the world around them,” said Sheth. WORD PROCESSING DURING UNCONSCIOUSNESS The team took the investigation further. Instead of tones... [Truncated]",

However, these models operate as black boxes, and their underlying working principles remain unclear. Here we survey emerging applications of explainable artificial intelligence (XAI) to protein language models and describe the potential of XAI in protein research. We organize existing work around four points in a typical modelling pipeline: the data used for training; the user-provided inputs; the internal model architecture; and input–output relationships. Across these contexts, we highlight methods and applications of XAI. In addition, from published studies we distil five potential roles for XAI in protein research: Evaluator, Multitasker, Engineer, Coach and Teacher, with the evaluator role being the only one widely adopted so far. While our analysis focuses on protein language models, our categorization is broadly applicable to any other architecture. We conclude by highlighting critical areas of application for the future and outlining a path to advance the interpretability of protein artificial intelligence.

Public historians, including filmmaker Ken Burns, have tried to offer a more inclusive view of the American Revolution, highlighting lesser-known patriots. But figures such as Thomas Jefferson, John Adams, George Washington and Benjamin Franklin will undoubtedly get the lion’s share of attention on the 250th anniversary. One important character who rarely makes it into the limelight is the pioneering composer William Billings, who lived in Boston at the time of the Revolution. Billings is widely considered America’s first noteworthy composer, publishing six tune books and writing some 340 choral works – some of which are still sung today. Apprenticed at 14 as a leather tanner, he learned music in his spare time and became a renowned teacher of singing schools, which taught basic elements of music so people could sing hymns more confidently. He also became a staunch supporter of independence, one of the Boston “Whigs” who spearhead... [Truncated]",

The study demonstrates that these specialized lenses are as effective as fluoxetine (the active ingredient in Prozac) at reducing behavioral, neural, and physiological signs of depression in mice. This technology leverages the eye’s anatomical connection to the brain to stimulate mood-regulating circuits non-invasively. Key Research Findings The Retinal Pathway: Because the retina is anatomically an extension of the brain, researchers used it as a “doorway” to stimulate specific mood-related brain regions.Temporal Interference (TI): The lenses use two electrical signals that only become active at their point of intersection. This allows for precise targeting of deep brain regions without affecting the surface of the eye.Restored Connectivity: Electrophysiological recordings showed that the treatment restored the vital neural connection between the hippocampus and the prefrontal cortex, which typically degrades during depression.Biological Shifts: After three weeks of 30-minute daily sessions, mice showed:A 47% increase in serotonin levels.A 48% reduction in blood corticosterone (a stress marker).Reduced levels of inflammatory molecules in the brain.Prozac-Level Efficacy: Machine learning models consistently grouped mice treated with the lenses with “non-depressed” control mice, indicating the treatment’s potency was comparable to standard SSRI medication. Source: Cell Press Materials scientists have designed brain-stimulating contact lenses that are as effective as Prozac at treating depression in mice. The soft, transparent contact lenses have in-built electrodes that deliver mild electrical signals to the brain via the retina to stimulate specific brain regions associated with depression. Publishing May 14 in the Cell Press journal Cell Reports Physical Science, the paper shows that depressed mice displayed reduced behavioral, neural, and physiological signs of depression after three weeks of treatment with the contact lenses. The transparent contact lenses utilize ultrathin electrodes to deliver intersecting electrical signals that precisely target mood-regulating brain regi... [Truncated]",

Add Axios on Google Trump and Xi inspect a guard of honor during a welcome ceremony in Beijing. Photo: Brendan Smialowski/AFP via Getty President Trump said Friday he's unsure whether he would greenlight a planned $14 billion weapons package for Taiwan after discussing arms sales in \"great detail\" with Chinese President Xi Jinping. Why it matters: The trip began with a warning from Xi about the potential for \"conflicts\" over Taiwan, and Trump made clear during the visit that he did not want to provoke one. \"The last thing we need right now is a war that's 9,500 miles away,\" Trump told reporters on the plane back to D.C.He made that remark while discussing a $14 billion arms package, which includes missiles and air defense interceptors, that his administration has held up for months.Hawks on Capitol Hill think the way to deter a Chinese move on the self-governing island is to offer Taiwan more muscular support, though some analysts argue that U.S. pledges of weapons and political support for Taiwan will only make Beijing more likely to use force. Zoom in: Trump acknowledged that the U.S. had pledged under the1982 \"six assurances\" policy not to consult with China about arms sales to Taiwan, but seemingly dismissed that promise as outdated. \"What am I going to do, say I don't want to talk to you about it because I have an agreement wrote in 1982? No, we discussed arms sales.\" \"I'll be making decisions,\" Trump said, before noting that his priority was to avoid a war. Between the lines: Such statements from Trump have alarmed the U.S.-friendly government in Taipei as well as allies in Japan and South Korea. Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi has found her hawkish line on Taiwan increasingly out of step with the U.S. posture. Takaichi said Trump called from Air Force One to give her a \"detailed\" briefing on his talks with Xi.Trump also said on the plane that he'd have to talk to \"the person who... is running Taiwan\" about the arms sales...

I think most of us have experimented with running local LLMs through projects like Ollama and OpenWebUI. But a lot of these feel more like a chatbot that things that are super helpful in the lab, even though they are powerful. However, I have recently spent some time testing OpenCode connected to Ollama with local coding models running directly from inside my home lab. After going through the setup and experimenting with them, this to me is where things get more exiting with AI coding agents. And the cool thing is, you don’t need cloud APIs, subscriptions, or any of your code leaving your network. Let’s walk through using OpenCode in your home lab and how to get this setup. WHAT IS OPENCODE? You have probably started to hear about OpenCode a lot about it lately. It is similar to what tools like Cursor, Claude Code, or Codex terminal interfaces look like. But the important thing is that it is something you can self-host and run locally and tie into your existing AI self-hosted resources like Ollama. With AI coding agents, these can interact with your local filesystem and repos directly from the terminal. Opencode self hosted ai coding agent platform So, instead of running like a basic chatbot, OpenCode can do the following: Read files Go through project folders Analyze repos Suggest edits Search through code Help explain infrastructure Interact with tools Work with terminal tasks and workflows This is what starts moving the experience from “chatbot” into “agent.” The really interesting part for home lab users is that OpenCode can connect to local models running through Ollama which I think is super cool and the most desira...

Yet the industry produces roughly as much carbon dioxide as all the passenger cars on the planet. A new study proposes a surprisingly straightforward fix: swap out the rock that cement is made from. Using a different type of rock as the raw material could cut energy use by more than 40% and slash associated carbon emissions by over 80%. The research was led by Jeff Prancevic, a geologist at UC Santa Barbara, and Cody Finke from Brimstone Energy, Inc. CEMENT PRODUCTION AND CO2 EMISSIONS Portland cement – the kind used in virtually all modern construction – is responsible for around 4.4% of global greenhouse gas emissions. That number surprises most people, and for good reason: cement doesn’t have the visibility of cars or power plants. “Cement barely registers in the public mind as a major driver of climate change, but the CO2 emissions from cement production are similar to all the world’s passenger cars,” Prancevic said. The problem lies in the raw material. Cement currently gets its calcium from limestone, and limestone is chemically about half CO2. When manufacturers heat it to the roughly 1,500°C required to produce quicklime, the key ingredient in cement, that carbon dioxide is released directly into the atmosphere. Around 500 kg of CO2 escapes per metric ton of cement produced, before even accounting for the energy used in the process. The method is simple and has been refined over more than a century, but it is essentially baked-in carbon emissions. A DIFFERENT ROCK, A DIFFERENT CHEMISTRY The study asks a direct question: what if the calcium came from somewhere else? The researchers investigated calcium-rich silicate rocks – basalt and gabbro being the prime candidates – as a replacement for limestone. Unlike limestone, silicates don’t store carbon in their chemical structure, so processing them doesn’t release CO2 in the same way. The first step was checking whether there’s enough of the stuff. Using existing geological maps, the team assessed the surface availability of silicate rocks worldwide. They found quantities sufficient to supply cement production for several hundred thousa...

It’s—Mud? THE KEY TO WINNING THE HYPERSONIC ARMS RACE IS RIGHT BENEATH YOUR FEET. IT’S—MUD? Rare earth minerals are crucial for defense tech, and now the U.S. can stockpile its own supply. By Zita Ballinger FletcherPublished: May 16, 2026 9:00 AM EDTListen (8 min)8 min Getty Images5 min read While scholars may argue that the drones swarming the sky are the future of warfare, the real answers could lie in the soil beneath us. Not just any soil, either. The key to future military power might just be resting in a pile of red mud. Red mud, also known as bauxite residue, is a byproduct of aluminum extraction and is often discarded as industrial waste. It contains heavy metals, making it an environmental hazard. Now, Utah-based rare earth exploration company U.S. Critical Materials is seeking to transform red mud into a potential industrial resource by extracting metals from it—specifically rare metals scandium and gallium, which American defense manufacturers critically need to be able to produce weapon components for futuristic technology, like hypersonic missiles. In April 2026, the company paired up with Columbia University in a two-year research agreement called the “Mud to Metal” project to see if they can harvest these hidden gems. “Gallium and scandium are critical minerals essential to a wide range of defense manufacturing industries and equipment,” Mike Cadenazzi, assistant secretary of war for Industrial Base Policy, said last November in a Pentagon release about new efforts surrounding the metals. It’s estimated that about 78 percent of weapons manufactured for the Defense Department depend on these minerals as critical components—including the radars and semiconductors vital to guiding hypersonic missiles and fighting electronic warfare.

General technology GEMINI INTELLIGENCE REQUIREMENTS MEAN MOST ANDROID PHONES ARE GOING TO MISS OUT Gemini Intelligence's requirements are higher than you might realize.By Ryan McNeal• May 15, 2026 •0••Add AndroidAuthority on GoogleEdgar Cervantes / Android AuthorityTL;DR Google is bringing Gemini Intelligence to Android devices starting this summer. It will require 12GB of RAM, a “flagship chip,” and support AI Core and Gemini Nano v3 or higher. These requirements mean phones like the Pixel 9 series and Galaxy Z Fold 7 don’t meet the criteria. Earlier this week, Google aired the highly anticipated I/O edition of The Android Show. The company teased that this would be one of the biggest years for the platform, and it delivered with the announcement of Gemini Intelligence. The rollout of Gemini Intelligence to Android phones is scheduled to start this summer. However, its list of demanding requirements means it will only be available for the most advanced devices.

Gemini Intelligence is an umbrella term that refers to Google’s most advanced AI features. Some examples of this include Gboard’s new voice-to-text “Rambler” feature; an enhanced version of Chrome auto-fill, which can handle more complicated forms; and Create My Widget. If you were excited by the announcement this week, you may want to prepare yourself for the requirements. According to the footnotes on the Gemini Intelligence landing page, this will be something only for the most premium of Android phones. Specifically, it mentions that you’ll need at least 12GB of RAM. This requirement alone knocks out most older Pixel phones, except for the Pixel 7 Pro, Pixel 8 Pro, Pixel 9 series, and Pixel 10 series. It also mentions that you’ll need support for AI Core and Gemini Nano v3 or higher. As Android Authority contributor AssembleDebug points out, Google has a list of what devices currently support Nano v3 on its developer page. Assemble... [Truncated]",

Your task is to produce a high-quality curated post using advanced grouping techniques:
- Employ sophisticated thematic analysis: detect latent connections, narrative arcs, opposing viewpoints, chronological progressions, intersections with current events, and deeper conceptual clusters.
- Create 3–7 meaningful, tightly coherent groups (avoid superficial or forced groupings; prefer fewer strong clusters over many weak ones).
- Choose precise, evocative topic names.

For each group:
- Start with "## Topic Name"
- Follow immediately with a classical rhymed and metrical poem (e.g., Shakespearean sonnet, Petrarchan sonnet, limerick sequence, heroic couplets, or similar form) that serves as an engaging, insightful preamble capturing the theme, context, and why it matters now. Present the entire poem in italicized Markdown by wrapping the whole poem block between * and * on their own lines (like a block). NEVER add **bold** around the ## group titles — output them exactly as plain ## Title Name.
- Then list the relevant bookmarks as bullet points:
  - **[og_title](url)**: One sharp, engaging sentence description (hooky, informative, and additive; refine og_description or write your own if better).
  - If og_image is a valid http/https URL, place the following immediately on the next line (no blank line):
    ![thumbnail](og_image)

Any true singletons go in a final "## Miscellaneous" section with the same format.  // ← CHANGED TO ##

Output EXACTLY the complete clean markdown body for the blog post (starting with the first ## header; no extra text, no introductions, no closing remarks, no separators).
