Things Worth Noting
Joe Rogan believes Elon Musk knows hidden truths about space and aliens due to his SpaceX contracts with NASA and the Department of Defense. Rogan says Musk must stay quiet on UFOs and extraterrestrial topics because of security clearances, and his dismissals seem calculated. A major reason is the interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS discovered in 2025, […]
In 2025, Starlink delivers reliable high-speed satellite internet, especially in rural and remote areas. Typical download speeds exceed 200 Mbps (often 100–400 Mbps), uploads top 30–40 Mbps, and latency stays low at 25–30 ms, perfect for streaming, gaming, and video calls. Uptime is over 99.9%, with rare outages thanks to laser links, fast satellite handoffs, […]
Valve has revived the Steam Machine, a compact console launching in early 2026 that delivers 4K gaming at 60 FPS using AMD Zen 4 CPU, RDNA3 GPU, 16GB RAM, and FSR upscaling—over six times more powerful than the Steam Deck. Running SteamOS on Linux with Windows install option, it offers full Steam library access via […]
AI is transforming healthcare by using machine learning and deep learning on big data from genomics, proteomics, and bioinformatics to speed up drug discovery, diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis. Tools like AlphaFold predict protein structures for in silico testing, while generative AI designs new molecules and repurposes drugs for diseases like IPF and rare conditions. AI-driven […]
Robots and automation revolutionize manufacturing and food processing, but wear and tear and heavy metal contamination pose challenges. Industrial robots face mechanical fatigue, corrosion, and abrasion, requiring preventive maintenance and IoT monitoring to extend lifespan and prevent metal residues from contaminating products. Heavy metals like lead and mercury threaten food and product safety, entering via […]
In 2017, A Crack in Creation: Gene Editing and the Unthinkable Power to Control Evolution hit bookshelves, authored by Jennifer Doudna, a pioneer in molecular biology, and Samuel Sternberg, her collaborator in the CRISPR revolution. This book isn’t just a scientific memoir—it’s a clarion call to humanity, a deep dive into the biotechnology that’s reshaping […]
Jony Ive, ex-Apple design chief, teams up with OpenAI’s Sam Altman to craft a new AI hardware device, aiming to reshape how we interact with technology. The project, still secretive, focuses on a device less intrusive than the iPhone, potentially raising $1 billion by 2024’s end. With a small, elite team including former Apple designers, […]
Room 641A is a facility in San Francisco operated by AT&T and used by the NSA for government surveillance programs, which intercepted internet traffic without public knowledge or consent. The revelation of the program sparked a public debate about privacy and government surveillance, leading to legal challenges and reforms to government surveillance policies. The legacy […]

Their research has led to breakthroughs in areas such as game AI, computer vision, natural language processing, and healthcare. Google DeepMind is known for developing the AlphaGo and AlphaFold algorithms, which have had a significant impact on […]
A digital twin is a virtual representation of a physical object, system, or process. It uses data from sensors, simulations, and other sources to create a digital copy that can be used to monitor, analyze, and optimize the real-world counterpart. Digital twins can be applied to a wide range of fields, including manufacturing, construction, transportation, […]
