Its helpfulness lies in what it doesn’t do. Summaries cut details out, and explanations might add new context. Simplify does neither. It focuses exclusively on rephrasing for clarity, ensuring the original meaning, details and nuance remain intact. “Summarization tools aim to condense an article to its main topics, often sacrificing details for brevity,” says Sho…

But scientists will need to image it 15 times more to make sure. TRAPPIST-1 is a small red dwarf…
In 2012, Ji launched his own company, Peak Labs, and later led the development of Magi, a search engine. The tool extracted information from across the web to answer queries—conceptually similar to today’s AI-powered search, but powered by a custom language model. Magi was briefly popular, drawing millions of users in its first month, but…
This weekend, I noticed three related headers being used in requests to some of our honeypots for the first time [1]: Signature-Input Signature-Agent Signature These headers are related to a relatively new feature, HTTP Message Signatures, which was standardized in RFC 9421 in February last year [2].

What did long-necked dinosaurs eat – and where did they roam to satisfy their hunger? A team of researchers has reconstructed the feeding behavior of sauropods using cutting-edge dental wear analysis. Their findings, published in Nature Ecology and Evolution, show that microscopic enamel wear marks provide surprising insights into migration, environmental conditions, and niche distribution…
Stanford Medicine scientists investigating the neurological underpinnings of autism spectrum disorder have found that hyperactivity in a specific brain region could drive behaviors commonly associated with the disorder. Using a mouse model of the disease, the researchers identified the reticular thalamic nucleus — which serves as a gatekeeper of sensory information between the thalamus and…
On New Year’s Day 1995, a monstrous 80-foot wave in the North Sea slammed into the Draupner oil platform. The wall of water crumpled steel railings and flung heavy equipment across the deck — but its biggest impact was what it left behind: hard data. It was the first time a rogue wave had ever…
