Researchers from various institutions have collaborated to study the spontaneous formation and synchronization of multiple quantum vortices in optically excited semiconductor microcavities. This groundbreaking research has opened up new possibilities for the exploration and simulation of condensed matter systems using polariton quantum vortices. The team of researchers managed to create a triangular lattice consisting of
The conflict between Brazil and Elon Musk’s satellite internet firm Starlink has been escalating with the recent threat of sanctions from Brazil’s telecommunications regulator, Anatel. This comes as a result of a public confrontation between Musk and the country over the decision to block his social media company X. The situation began when Brazil’s supreme
Hopoo Games, the creators of Risk Of Rain and Risk Of Rain 2, have announced that they are closing down their studio and transitioning to work at Valve. This move comes as a surprise to many, especially since they were in the middle of developing a new game titled “Snail”. The co-founders, Paul Morse and
Instagram has recently made a significant change to its Broadcast Channels, moving away from traditional one-way communication to a more interactive format. This shift allows subscribers to add their own comments within the channel itself, creating a more dynamic and engaging experience. While the main channel feed remains focused on broadcasting updates from channel admins,
The recent allegations against LobbyMatic, an AI-powered software company, have brought to light some concerning information. According to Politico, sources claim that the company is being run by individuals using pseudonyms, namely “Jay Klein” and “Bill Sanders.” This revelation has raised questions about the credibility and transparency of the company, especially since there is no
In the world of rideshare apps, the process of pairing drivers with riders efficiently is crucial. It’s not just about getting someone from point A to point B quickly, but also ensuring that the system maximizes happiness for all parties involved. This process, known as bipartite matching, is not just limited to rideshare apps. It’s
The recent decision by Brazil’s federal supreme court to suspend the use of Elon Musk’s social network X nationwide has sparked widespread debate and controversy. Justice Luiz Fux’s reservations regarding the court’s ability to penalize individuals or businesses using subterfuge to access X while it is blocked highlight the complex legal and ethical issues at
The ability to manipulate light particles on a quantum level has always been a fascinating concept for scientists. Recently, researchers at the University of Bonn have made a significant breakthrough by creating a type of “super photon” through the use of nano molds. This new approach allows them to shape light particles into a lattice
One of the major challenges in detecting deepfakes in the Global South is the quality of media produced in these regions. Unlike high-quality media that deepfake detection tools are usually trained on, cheap Chinese smartphone brands dominate the market in regions like Africa. These smartphones offer stripped-down features and produce much lower quality photos and
The recent release of Risk of Rain 2: Seekers of the Storm has left many fans of the co-op roguelite feeling disappointed and frustrated. The DLC, which launched last Tuesday, has received a plethora of negative reviews on Steam, currently sitting at a mere 79% ‘mostly negative’ rating. The complaints range from bugs to game-breaking
