A major clinical trial, published in The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, reveals that vitamin D supplements can reduce biological aging, preserving telomeres and potentially adding three years to lifespan.
Vitamin D3 and marine ω-3 fatty acids supplementation and leukocyte telomere length: 4-year findings from the VITamin D and OmegA-3 TriaL (VITAL) randomized controlled trial
Limited studies suggest that vitamin D or omega 3 fatty acids (n-3 FAs) supplementation may be beneficial for telomere maintenance, however, evidence …

Laser cooling breakthrough could make data centers much greener
Lasers are great for heating things up, whether you need to do it quickly, hit a precise target, or do it from a distance. Under specific conditions, lasers can also cool things down, and that might b...

Season 7 of “Black Mirror” explores ideas around memory alteration, the fickleness of subscription services and the validity of A.I. consciousness. Here’s a look back at a few themes from past episodes that seemed futuristic at the time but are now upon us.
‘Black Mirror’ Showed Us a Future. Some of It Is Here Now.
The long-running tech drama always felt as if it took place in a dystopian near future. How much of that future has come to pass?

On the dire wolf v grey wolf with attitude debate- nature does not demand perfection it demands adaptation. And this is adaptation at its boldest. A species gone for over 10,000 years may not walk the Earth again exactly as it once did. However, something new does. We need to let it howl!

A study in The Lancet finds that life expectancy progress in the United States is slowing. Only modest increases are likely by 2050, as the country falls below nearly all high-income and some middle-income countries in the global rankings.

Google said its quantum computer needed less than five minutes to perform a mathematical calculation that one of the world’s most powerful supercomputers could not complete in 10 septillion years, a length of time that exceeds the age of the known universe.
Google Makes New Quantum Computing Breakthrough
Google unveiled an experimental machine capable of tasks that a traditional supercomputer could not master in 10 septillion years. (That’s older than the universe.)
