Scientists have achieved the restorative benefits of deep sleep in awake mice, without them actually sleeping. In a groundbreaking study published in Nature Neuroscience, researchers at the University of Wisconsin-Madison used optogenetics, a technique that uses light to control genetically modified neurons, to induce slow-wave “on/off” patterns characteristic of non-REM sleep in localized regions of the animals’ brains.

Sleep-deprived but active mice that received this artificial stimulation performed as well on memory and learning tasks as fully rested mice. The results support the idea that specific neural activity patterns, rather than unconsciousness itself, drive synaptic restoration and cognitive recovery.

This discovery suggests it may one day be possible to develop targeted therapies that counteract the effects of sleep deprivation and help treat cognitive decline in humans.

SOMEONE VIBE CODED POKEMON GO BUT FOR CATS YOU MEET IN REAL LIFE

see a cat, open the camera, snap it, and it gets added to your collection as a little creature with a name, rarity, level, and its own stats page

> checks the photo actually has a real cat in it, so you cant just screenshot one or use an image
> every cat you catch gets a rarity and its own collectible card
> a world map shows cats other players have found near you
> has retro cartoon art, cream colors and thick outlines, built to feel like a game

he wanted "snapping" a cat to feel playful and fast, not like just saving a photo

so most of the work went into the detection and making the catch feel like a real game

i need a dog one asap

Last night, our long-range sanctions once again reached the Moscow region – for the second time this week, the Moscow oil refinery was hit. Targets were also struck in the Rostov region and in temporarily occupied territories of Ukraine. This is a fully justified response to Russian attacks on our cities and communities, and another important result of our warriors’ work against facilities that sustain Russia’s war machine. I thank our Defense and Security Forces of Ukraine for their coordinated efforts – the Security Service of Ukraine, the Unmanned Systems Forces, the Special Operations Forces, Defense Intelligence, and our missile brigade for their precision.

In recent days, all of our partners have noted the precision and effectiveness of our mid-range strikes and long-range sanctions. It is time the war ended, and Russia must take the necessary steps in diplomacy.

Premier polacco Tusk sull'Ucraina:

"Neanche il Premio Nobel per la Pace sarebbe sufficiente.

C'è chi dice che l'Ucraina dovrebbe essere grata per tutto. La verità è proprio il contrario: siamo noi, tutti gli altri, che dovremmo essere grati all'Ucraina."

Our warriors have achieved good results in applying long-range sanctions against important facilities on the territory of Russia and in the temporarily occupied territories of Ukraine.

More than 700 kilometers from our state border, in Russia’s Yaroslavl region, SSU warriors struck an oil facility that was important for the reserves of the aggressor state.

Warriors of our army reached their targets in Russia’s Tula region – specifically, the Azot plant, whose operations are critical to explosives production capabilities.

Air traffic restrictions were imposed at six Russian airports, and overall, since yesterday evening, 28 regions of Russia have been under air raid alerts.

There were also hits on the occupier’s military logistics in the temporarily occupied territory of Ukraine.

Ukraine is carrying out its plan of long-range sanctions against Russia and the assigned tasks regarding mid-range strikes in response to Russia’s refusal to end this war. We have offered the Russian leadership every possible format for negotiations – and the only response was continued aggression and attempts to expand it. It stands to reason that the war is coming back to where it came from. Ukraine needs peace. Glory to Ukraine!

Con il blocco di Fable per l’Europa, il governo americano dimostra di poter interdire a chiunque dall’oggi al domani l’accesso a qualunque risorsa del cloud americano. Oggi è Fable domani potrebbero essere i nostri dati aziendali. Questa dimostrazione pratica di inaffidabilità proietta un’ombra sulle previsioni di crescita dei grandi gruppi tecnologici USA aumentando la probabilità che il mercato Europeo, in uno sprazzo di lucidità, si attrezzi rapidamente con suoi modelli AI e un suo cloud creando le condizioni per investirei in questi progetti da parte delle maggiori imprese ed istituzioni europee.
Secondo me lunedì la borsa USA sconterà questo rischio.

As a result of a US government directive, we are suspending access to Claude Fable 5 for all users. You can continue to use all other Claude models.

Here’s what this means for you:

Across Claude products, new sessions will run on your selected default model or Opus 4.8, and existing Fable 5 sessions will end with an error.

On the Claude Platform, requests to Fable 5 will also return an error. Please update your integrations to other Claude models.

We know this is a disruption to your workflows; we appreciate your patience and support.
