Scientists Say Earth May Be Trapped Inside a Huge, Strange Void

Astronomers who examined the sound waves from the Big Bang say that the Earth — and the entire Milky Way galaxy we call home — could be trapped in a huge void billions of light years across. Their study, which was just presented at the Royal Astronomical Society's National Astronomy Meeting in the UK, could solve one of cosmology's greatest mysteries: the Hubble tension, or why the older universe appears to be expanding more slowly than younger regions. "The Hubble tension is largely a local p

8 Foods With Microplastics Hidden in Them and How to Limit Your Consumption

It's official: Microplastics are in more than just fish. They seem to be in everything now, even mundane things like chewing gum. UCLA researchers found that microplastics are released directly into our mouths each time we chew a piece. In addition to that, a new study published in Chemistry for Life tested 10 chewing gum brands and found every single one contained microplastics. With something as common as chewing gum becoming a delivery system for microplastics, many people are concerned abou

New Research Bolsters Freaky Theory That Earth Sits in a Giant Cosmic Void

Images of the cosmos, such as the James Webb Space Telescope’s deep space snapshot, make space look chock-full of stuff. In the grand scheme of things, it is, but all those stars, galaxies, planets, and other celestial objects may not be as uniformly distributed as photos make them look. The fact is, space is likely peppered with bubbles of relative emptiness, and some astronomers believe we’re sitting inside of one. A growing body of evidence suggests that our entire Milky Way galaxy is locate

We Found the 8 Most Common Foods With Microplastics

Microplastics are the latest hidden hazard worry for the world -- and now they've even been found in chewing gum. UCLA researchers have found that every time we chew gum, microplastics are released directly into our mouths. In addition to that, a new study published in Chemistry for Life tested 10 chewing gum brands and found every single one contained microplastics. This was found to be the case with both natural and synthetic varieties. A gram of gum releases around 100 microplastics on averag

Take a Trip to Bob’s Void in This Exclusive ‘Thunderbolts’ Clip

The Void is a terrible place, filled with everything that scares you and makes you feel shame. But, in this new clip from the upcoming home release of Thunderbolts, you’ll realize it’s also a place to really push the boundaries of filmmaking. Thunderbolts, or The New Avengers if you’d like, is the latest film from Marvel Studios, for a few more weeks at least. It stars Florence Pugh, Sebastian Stan, David Harbour, Hannah John-Kamen, and Wyatt Russell as the latest, but probably not greatest, su

The Void IDE, Open-Source Alternative to Cursor, Released in Beta

A new open-source AI-powered code editor, Void IDE, was recently released in beta, positioning itself as a privacy-focused and free alternative to popular closed-source AI editors like Cursor and GitHub Copilot. Backed by Y Combinator, Void IDE is a fork of Visual Studio Code. While Microsoft recently announced plans to open Source its GitHub Copilot Chat Extension possibly in a few months, the beta release is available now for the community to fiddle with.

Simplest C++ Callback, from SumatraPDF

SumatraPDF is a Windows GUI application for viewing PDF, ePub and comic books written in C++. A common need in GUI programs is a callback. E.g. when a button is clicked we need to call a function with some data identifying which button was clicked. Callback is therefore a combo of function and data and we need to call the function with data as an argument. In programming language lingo, code + data combo is called a closure. C++ has std::function<> and lambdas (i.e. closures). Lambdas convert
