Natural peptides from cyanobacteria offer eco-friendly solution to marine biofouling
A new CIIMAR study demonstrates that natural peptides produced by cyanobacteria are capable of replacing toxic biocides that dominate the market for anti-fouling paints used in the maritime industry. The use of these peptides as an active component brings direct benefits to the environment, the blue economy and marine biodiversity.

The search for the liquid-liquid critical point in supercooled water is challenging
owing to rapid crystallization.
We studied supercooled water at timescales before ice formation
by heating high- and low-density amorphous ices
using infrared ultrafast laser pulses,
followed by x-ray scattering.
By varying the pump laser fluence,
we accessed liquid states straddling the predicted critical point.
We observed a crossover from a discontinuous t…

Det er snart 10 år siden jeg var med på å skrive denne kronikken om fremtiden for Den norske filmskolen. Jeg står fremdeles for innholdet, men dessverre virker det som de viktigste kampene er tapt.

Webspace Invaders · Matthias Ott
There’s something happening on the Web at the moment that almost feels like watching that old arcade game Space Invaders play out across our servers. Bots and scrapers marching in formation, attacking our servers wave after wave, systematically requesting page after page, relentlessly filling their data stores while we watch our access logs fill up.

Some scents cause me an extremely peculiar feeling somewhere in my palate, towards the front of the mouth, occasionally even doing *something* to my incisives.
Does anybody else know what I'm talking about and maybe, just maybe, know what's the correct definition?
(searching for "scents that affect teeth and palate" only has halitosis-based results)
For reference: patchouli (patchoulol) is an example of such scents, for me.

New court filings allege that federal and state officials withheld evidence of the Trump administration’s involvement in the Everglades detention facility known as “Alligator Alcatraz,” a revelation that could revive a court-ordered shutdown. The Jan. 7 filings come as the Miccosukee Tribe presses ahead with its legal challenge amid President Donald Trump’s recent veto of legislation expanding the tribe’s control over Everglades lands.
The filings, submitted by Friends of the Everglades…

New ‘Alligator Alcatraz’ records suggest federal funding and involvement in Florida detention camp
Court filings appear to undermine DHS claims that “Alligator Alcatraz” was a state project, potentially reviving a court-ordered shutdown
