Scientist use Al to create bacteria-killing viruses.
Scientists of Stanford University and Arc Institute used Al to create new genetic codes for viruses, and managed to get 16 of them to replicate and kill bacteria. They said the germs with Al-written DNA represent "the first generative design of complete genomes." They used Al models, Evo 1 and 2, and trained them on around 2 million bacteriophage genomes.
🇺🇸 President Trump says "I don't need international law."
"My own morality. My own mind. It's the only thing that can stop me."
In the real world, "International Law" is often just a tool used by the strong to manage the weak.
In the 1920s, some Japanese potters started making teapots shaped like mischievous, grinning cats. Each teapot had exaggerated features, huge eyes, wide smiles, and tiny paws that looked like they were holding the lid. They weren’t just functional, they were playful, slightly strange, and full of personality, almost like little ceramic characters brought to life. People loved them for their humor and charm, and today they’re collected as fun, unusual pieces of art.
💔The Smile Behind the Crime: The Chilling Story of Jodie Arias
In 2008, a young woman named Jodie Arias from California was in a troubled relationship with her ex-boyfriend, Travis Alexander, who lived in Arizona. At first, they seemed like a normal couple — they dated, took trips, and posted happy photos online. But over time, their relationship became filled with jealousy, arguments, and emotional ups and downs.
One day in June 2008, Jodie went to Travis’s house. Later that day, Travis was found dead in his bathroom, having been stabbed 27 times, his throat slashed, and shot in the head. It was one of the most shocking and brutal crimes in America.
When police questioned Jodie, she kept changing her story — first saying she wasn’t there, then saying masked intruders attacked him, and finally admitting that she had killed him but claimed it was self-defense.
During the trial, her calm behavior and even smiling mugshot shocked people. Later, Jodie explained that she smiled because she wanted to show she wasn’t “broken” and didn’t want her family to see her looking scared or weak. But to the public, it came off as cold and emotionless.
Astronomers capture first image of baby planet forming
Astronomers have achieved a landmark discovery by directly photographing a baby planet forming inside a ring around its star, marking the first time scientists have observed a protoplanet actively carving out its environment in real-time. The massive gas giant WISPIT 2b, located 437 light-years from Earth, represents a cosmic milestone that validates decades of theoretical predictions about planetary formation.
Child star Shirley Temple was pushed to work long hours from a very young age, often with little rest. Studio executives expected her to smile constantly, even when she was sick or exhausted. Though she stayed away from major scandals, the pressure of fame and losing her childhood left her emotionally drained as she grew older.
@spectatorindex Japan’s GDP fell mainly because its economy grew slowly while the yen weakened against the U.S. dollar. Prices in dollars dropped even though Japan’s local economy didn’t shrink much. Aging population, low consumer spending, and deflation also played a part in the decline.
♥️The Boy Who Harnessed the Wind: How William Kamkwamba Brought Light to His Village
12-year-old William Kamkwamba building a windmill from scrap parts in his village in Malawi, 2001.
Growing up in poverty, William’s family couldn’t afford school fees, and drought had left their village starving. Determined to help, he borrowed an old science book from the local library and taught himself how to generate electricity using bicycle parts, wood, and a broken fan blade. His homemade windmill powered a few lights and later a water pump, transforming life in his community.
William’s invention drew worldwide attention, earning him a scholarship and leading to his education at Dartmouth College in the United States. He became an engineer, author, and TED speaker, inspiring millions with his message about curiosity and perseverance.
Today, William continues to develop renewable energy projects across Africa. His story, told in his memoir The Boy Who Harnessed the Wind and the Netflix film of the same name, remains a symbol of how creativity and determination can change the world , even when the odds are against you.
