It's been two years since the explosion of generative artificial intelligence started to transform Nvidia's business. Since then, the chipmaker's revenue has more than tripled and profits have quadrupled.

A Physicist Wants to Turn Jupiter’s Largest Moon Into a Gigantic Dark Matter Detector

gizmodo.com Gayoung Lee 2025-11-03 08:00:14

When searching for the unknown, classic physics wisdom holds that a bigger detector boosts the chances of discovery. A physicist is taking that advice to heart, advancing a bold plan to use none other than Ganymede—Jupiter’s largest moon—as a dark matter detector on an astronomical scale. Dark matter refers to the “invisible” mass that supposedly constitutes 85% of the universe. There’s considerable evidence that dark matter exists, but it’s “dark,” meaning it doesn’t respond to light and very

Stepanov's biggest blunder? The curious case of adjacent difference

The curious case of adjacent difference If you have ever tried using the std::adjacent_difference algorithm in c++, I’m sure it left you puzzled. As the name suggests, this algorithm computes differences between adjacent elements of the input sequence, but it does one more thing: it copies the first element of the input sequence into the output sequence unmodified. The following example demonstrates how to apply the algorithm to delta-compress a postings list of document identifiers that contain

In Brief When Amazon hired the founders of AI startup Adept last year, it was one of the first examples of what became known as a reverse acquihire — a deal where a large company hires key startup team members and licenses its technology, rather than acquiring the startup outright.

Lightning declines over shipping lanes following regulation of sulfur emissions

If you look at a map of lightning near the Port of Singapore, you’ll notice an odd streak of intense lightning activity right over the busiest shipping lane in the world. As it turns out, the lightning really is responding to the ships, or rather the tiny particles they emit.
