A ‘Grand Unified Theory’ of Math Just Got a Little Bit Closer

wired.com Joseph Howlett 2025-09-16 07:00:00

“We mostly believe that all the conjectures are true, but it’s so exciting to see it actually realized,” said Ana Caraiani, a mathematician at Imperial College London. “And in a case that you really thought was going to be out of reach.” It’s just the beginning of a hunt that will take years—mathematicians ultimately want to show modularity for every abelian surface. But the result can already help answer many open questions, just as proving modularity for elliptic curves opened up all sorts of

TCL QM8K Review: The Best Mid-Tier TV

wired.com Parker Hall 2025-09-16 08:02:00

The main way to tell how old a TV is? Look at the bezels. Until about 10 years ago, they were thick picture frames, but they’ve slowly gotten smaller and smaller as the models turned over. With its new QM8K QLED, TCL has removed them entirely. Innovations in panel design mean that this blindingly bright screen looks like it's floating in space on its pedestal mount. It’s a classy party trick that makes it easy to hide on the wall with images or artwork on it, and it improves the viewing angle t

I’ve tried dozens of to-do apps — these 6 clicked with me, but one’s my favorite

Megan Ellis / Android Authority I may not be that big of a productivity nerd, but I do like my things organized, and I go to great lengths to find a system that works for me. My style is that I don’t control every minute of my day — so I’m less of a calendar person and more of a to-do list guy. That’s a subtle way of saying that I’ve tried a lot of to-do apps before zeroing in on one.

Chemical process produces critical battery metals with no waste

news.ycombinator.com Laurie Winkless 2025-09-16 05:35:33

Olivine is a rather unassuming rock. Olive brown to yellow green in color, this hard yet brittle mineral is thought to be the most abundant in Earth’s upper mantle. Chemically, olivine is magnesium iron silicate, though it contains other elements too. Economically, it’s close to worthless. Its limited industrial utility stretches to gemstones, metalworking, ceramics, and occasionally, as a gravel for road construction. At some mining sites, olivine is a waste product, stored in piles on the surf

This Dinosaur Probably Chirped Like a Bird

gizmodo.com Natalia Mesa 2025-09-16 11:00:59

Scientists have discovered a dinosaur that might have chirped like a bird, a finding that suggests the evolutionary origins of birdsong may be far more ancient than we previously thought. In a paper published last week in the journal PeerJ, an international team of researchers describes a 163-million-year-old fossil found in northeastern China’s Hebei Province. The fossil dinosaur, which they’ve dubbed Pulaosaurus qinglong, measures just 28 inches (72 centimeters) and is largely complete, givin
