Why Probability Probably Doesn’t Exist (but It’s Useful to Act like It Does)
Life is uncertain. None of us know what is going to happen. We know little of what has happened in the past, or is happening now outside our immediate experience. Uncertainty has been called the ‘conscious awareness of ignorance’ — be it of the weather tomorrow, the next Premier League champions, the climate in 2100 or the identity of our ancient ancestors.

Scientists Destroy 99% of Cancer Cells in Lab Using Vibrating Molecules
https://www.sciencealert.com/scientists-destroy-99-of-cancer-cells-in-lab-using-vibrating-molecules
Scientists have discovered a remarkable way to destroy cancer cells. A study published last year found stimulating aminocyanine molecules with near-infrared light caused them to vibrate in sync, enough to break apart the membranes of cancer cells.

Distant blazar discovery supports rapid black hole formation in early universe
https://phys.org/news/2024-12-distant-blazar-discovery-rapid-black.html
Astronomers have discovered an important piece of the puzzle of how supermassive black holes were able to grow so quickly in the early universe: a special kind of active galactic nucleus so distant that its light has taken more than 12.9 billion years to reach us. This so-called blazar serves as a statistical marker: its existence implies the presence of a large but hidden population of similar objects, all of which should emit powerful particle jets.

President Biden pardons his son Hunter Biden
https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/joe-biden/joe-biden-issue-pardon-son-hunter-biden-rcna182369
Joe Biden pardoned his son Hunter Sunday night, a reversal for the president, who repeatedly said he would not use his executive authority to pardon his son or commute his sentence.
"I believe in the justice system, but as I have wrestled with this, I also believe raw politics has infected this process and it led to a miscarriage of justice — and once I made this decision this weekend, there was no sense in delaying it further. I hope Americans will understand why a father and a President would come to this decision," Biden said in a statement.

China hits record-breaking 1.85 terabytes of data storage in diamonds
https://interestingengineering.com/innovation/diamonds-can-store-data-for-millions-of-years
Think of a future where our distant descendants, perhaps even a new species evolved from humanity, could access and experience the history of our civilization in a way we can barely comprehend today.
This mindblowing idea may turn into a reality soon. A new study suggests that diamond-based storage technology could preserve vast amounts of information for millions of years.
Researchers from the University of Science and Technology of China have set a new record for diamond storage density, achieving 1.85 terabytes per cubic centimeter.

A reversible biological mechanism behind drug-induced cognitive deficits found
Researchers from the University of California, San Diego, have identified a shared mechanism in the brain that explains how different drugs, such as methamphetamine and PCP (commonly known as “angel dust”), result in similar cognitive impairments, including memory loss. The study, published in Nature Communications, reveals that these drugs cause neurons in the medial prefrontal cortex to alter the way they communicate through a process called neurotransmitter switching.

The Radical Plan to Build a Spaceship to Carry Humans For Generations
https://www.sciencealert.com/the-radical-plan-to-build-a-spaceship-to-carry-humans-for-generations
The dream of traversing the depths of space and planting the seed of human civilization on another planet has existed for generations.
For long as we've known that most stars in the Universe are likely to have their own system of planets, there have been those who advocated that we explore them (and even settle on them).

NASA says that warp drive is getting closer to reality
https://www.thebrighterside.news/space/nasa-says-that-warp-drive-is-getting-closer-to-reality/
The sci-fi TV series Star Trek has captivated audiences since it first aired, blending real-life science with fiction in ways that have sparked technological innovations. One of the most fascinating concepts presented in the series is warp drive, an idea that has challenged Einstein’s Theory of Relativity by proposing travel at speeds exceeding that of light.
