Alumni of IIT-Kharagpur have built a cold storage facility named Ecofrost via their startup, Ecozone Solutions. This is a portable facility that offers pre-cooling of fruits, vegetables and flowers to increase their shelf life and reduce transportation costs.
Sabine Hossenfelder investigates life’s big questions through the lens of physics, particularly Einstein’s theory of special relativity. She highlights the relativity of simultaneity, which states that the notion of “now” is subjective and dependent on the observer. This leads to the block universe concept, where past, present, and future all exist simultaneously, making the past just as real as the present.
Hossenfelder also emphasizes that the fundamental laws of nature preserve information rather than destroy it. Although information about a deceased person disperses, it remains an integral part of the universe. This idea of timeless existence, derived from the study of fundamental physics, offers profound spiritual insights that can be difficult to internalize in our everyday lives. As a result, Hossenfelder encourages people to trust the scientific method and accept the profound implications of these discoveries, which may reshape our understanding of life and existence.
As a physicist, Hossenfelder trusts the knowledge gained through the scientific method and acknowledges the challenge of integrating these deep insights into our daily experiences. By contemplating these profound concepts, we can potentially expand our understanding of reality and our place within it.

The most common screening test for prostate cancer — a measure of prostate-specific antigen, or PSA, levels — so often suggests cancer where there is none that clinical guidelines no longer recommend the test for men over 70 and leave the decision up to younger patients.
Scientists at Stanford Medicine and their collaborators aim to make PSA screening more accurate — by calibrating PSA levels to each man’s genetics. Applying this type of personalization could significantly reduce overdiagnosis and better predict aggressive disease. Their research was published June 1 in Nature Medicine.

The global quest for semiconductors is dominated by giant, costly factories. With CubeFabs, Nanotronics could let anyone take a DIY approach.
OpenAI CEO Sam Altman has announced internally that the company is targeting $1.3 billion in annual revenue, according to The Information.
That’s 30 percent more than the $1 billion in annual revenue leaked over the summer, which was already said to have exceeded investor expectations. The new figure suggests more than $100 million in monthly revenue.
The biggest revenue driver is subscriptions to ChatGPT Plus. Last year, without the ChatGPT Plus offering, OpenAI had revenue of only $28 million, with a loss of $540 million, according to The Information.
