The U.S. could tumble into recession before seeing Trump’s promised golden age
The labor market has basically stalled since Trump kicked off his “Liberation Day” tariff offensive in April.
Some on Wall Street are mulling the likelihood of a recession.

“The odds are close to 50/50, maybe more,” said Neil Dutta,
head of economic research at Renaissance Macro Research in New York.
“The case for a slowdown is pretty compelling.”

Warm, water-depleted rocky exoplanets with surface ionic liquids: A proposed class for planetary habitability
The discovery of thousands of exoplanets and the emergence of telescopes capable of exoplanet atmospheric characterization have intensified the search for habitable worlds. Due to selection biases, many exoplanets under study are planets deemed inhospitable because their surfaces are too warm to support liquid water. We propose that such planets could still support life through ionic liquids: Liquid salts with negligible vapor pressure that can persist on warm planets with thin atmospheres, whe…

As a restaurant owner – I’m astounded at the rate of progress since microwaves were released a few short years ago. Today’s microwave can cook a frozen burrito. Tomorrow’s m…
