I put together this bumblebee made out of mini blocks a couple weekends ago. VERY tough with my big dumb hands. These bricks are TINY - see 3rd photo with quarter. Maybe the toughest thing I've ever built. Didn't give up! But if the flowers are that small, HOW HUGE IS THAT BEE?!? 😂

⭐️Honey bees vs. native pollinators
The damage does not stop with bees. The study highlights that honey bee pollination leads to poorer plant offspring quality compared to native bee pollination.
This happens because honey bees often visit many flowers on the same plant before moving to another.
This behavior increases the chances of self-pollination, which can lead to inbreeding depression in plants.
Such effects could ripple through ecosystems. Plants that rely on nat…

Faizan Zaki wins the Scripps National Spelling Bee
Faizan Zaki has seized the title of best speller in the English language at the Scripps National Spelling Bee. The 13-year-old from Allen, Texas, was runner-up last year after he lost in a lightning-round tiebreaker. He ousted eight other accomplished spellers to win the title on Thursday night, including two that he let back into the competition after his own careless flub. Told to take a deep breath before his final word, “eclaircissement,” he didn’t ask a single question before spellin…

Expediting data extraction using a large language model (LLM) and scoping review protocol: a methodological study within a complex scoping review
The data extraction stages of reviews are resource-intensive, and researchers may seek to expediate data extraction using online (large language models) LLMs and review protocols. Claude 3.5 Sonnet was used to trial two approaches that used a review protocol to prompt data extraction from 10 evidence sources included in a case study scoping review. A protocol-based approach was also used to review extracted data. Limited performance evaluation was undertaken which found high accuracy for the tw…

Moment formulas of Siegel transforms with congruence conditions in dimension 2
We compute the first and second moment formulas for Siegel transforms related to problems counting primitive lattice points in the real plane with congruence conditions. As applications, we derive an analog of Schmidt's random counting theorem and the quantitative Khintchine theorem for irrational numbers, approximated by rational numbers $p/q$, where we place a congruence-conditional constraint on the vector $(p,q)$.

Honey bees remove 80% of pollen—leaving native bees with nothing
Feral honey bees, once celebrated for their agricultural value, are now threatening native ecosystems in Southern California by monopolizing pollen sources and overwhelming native pollinators. A new study reveals they remove up to 80% of pollen in a single day, severely disrupting food sources for over 700 species of native bees. Despite their benefits to agriculture, these invasive bees dominate nearly all bee biomass in the region and even produce lower-quality offspring when pollinating nati…

Aber beim letzten Lied (What it sound like) ging das nicht, weil Kloß im Hals. XD Ich bin ein Sucker für Zusammenfinden-Kitsch. 😅

Improved design of an active landing gear for a passenger aircraft using multi-objective optimization technique
The landing gear system is a major aircraft subsystem that must withstand extreme forces during ground maneuvers and absorb vibrations. While traditional systems perform well under normal conditions, their efficiency drops under varying landing and runway scenarios. This study addresses this issue by simultaneously optimizing controller coefficients, parameters of a nonlinear hydraulic actuator integrated into the traditional shock absorber, and a vibration absorber using a bee-inspired multi-o…

Bees are collapsing in the U.S.

The Bee Lab’s potential closure comes at a tough time for bees.

Droege studies native bees,
the types of pollinators that only live in the wild,
as opposed to honeybees,
which are farmed and bred for profit.
Entomologists stress that honeybees and native bees are different —
sort of like farmed chickens and wild birds.
But they can be exposed to the same threats,
