Local cuisine was on the menu at Cafe Neanderthal

arstechnica.com Unknown 2026-02-04 20:46:48

Sixty thousand years ago, two groups of Neanderthals lived just a stone’s throw apart in what’s now northern Israel. But they had very different cultures when it came to food, according to a recent study. Archaeologist Anaëlle Jallon of Hebrew University of Jerusalem and her colleagues examined dozens of animal bones from both sites, looking for clues about Neanderthal meal prep. It turns out that something as mundane as the cut marks left by butchering an animal can reveal differences in ancien

After a partly successful test flight, European firm eyes space station mission

arstechnica.com Unknown 2026-02-04 21:00:46

Last month, the parachutes on Hélène Huby's small spacecraft failed to deploy, and the vehicle and its cargo crashed into the ocean on Earth. It was both a success and a failure. The success was that after Huby founded The Exploration Company in Europe, she managed to move nimbly with the "Mission Possible" spacecraft such that it cost less than $25 million to build and reached space in less than three years. The vehicle ticked off a number of successes in spaceflight before making a controlle

Tan was part of a burgeoning hacker community known as the Honkers—teens and twentysomethings in late-’90s and early-’00s China who formed groups like the Green Army and Evil Octal and launched patriotic cyberattacks against Western targets they deemed disrespectful to China.

Xi Jinping warns against China's overinvestment in EVs and AI

Sometimes, especially when dealing with business logic, we have to deal with data that comes in from the real world, or elsewhere, naturally very messily typed, leading to nasty type signatures and messes of macros or code generation to build data structures from a schema. Row polymorphism can help us by abstracting over the fields contained in a record type in the type signature, letting us define records based on data, concatenate records together, and define functions that are generic across
