It’s not just PlayStation: 6 other gnarly gaming layoffs in 2024 so far
The video games industry is laying off workers by the thousands and it's not even March yet. UPDATE: Feb. 29, 2024, 12:46 p.m. EST And now there are six. A day after we published this article, we got news about Electronic Arts' layoffs, add.....»»
When the music changes, so does the dance: Controlling cooperative electronic states in kagome metals
Playing a different soundtrack is, physically speaking, only a minute change of the vibration spectrum, yet its impact on a dance floor is dramatic. People long for this tiny trigger, and as a salsa changes to a tango completely different collective.....»»
Counting rays: Aerial surveys reveal ample populations in southeast Florida
The whitespotted eagle ray (Aetobatus narinari) and the giant manta ray (Mobula birostris) are rapidly declining globally. Both species are classified by the International Union for Conservation of Nature as endangered worldwide, and the giant manta.....»»

Merons realized in synthetic antiferromagnets
The electronic devices we use on a day-to-day basis are powered by electrical currents. This is the case with our living room lights, washing machines, and televisions, to name but a few examples. Data processing in computers also relies on informati.....»»
A new theoretical development clarifies water"s electronic structure
There is no doubt that water is significant. Without it, life would never have begun, let alone continue today—not to mention its role in the environment itself, with oceans covering over 70% of Earth......»»
Researchers design novel microfluidic module for controlling the porosity of manufactured materials
Porous materials are essential for many chemical processes, such as light harvesting, adsorption, catalysis, energy transfer, and even new technologies for electronic materials. Therefore, many efforts have been made to control the porosity of differ.....»»
Investigators find that streams connected to groundwater show improved detoxification and microbial diversity
Streams with ample connections to shallow groundwater flowpaths have greater microbial diversity and are more effective at preventing toxic forms of metals—often products of upstream mining—from entering and being transported downstream. These st.....»»
