Researchers have made a groundbreaking discovery that human olfactory perception can detect changes in odors within just a single breath, challenging the previously held view that our sense of smell is slow.
By utilizing a sniff-triggered device precise to 18 milliseconds, they demonstrated that people can discern between two different odors in sequences as short as 60 milliseconds—faster than a blink.

Still, damaging waters need not be a the result of a named storm or involve storm surge to destroy property, or spur flood warnings miles from the ocean. Florida’s flat, low-lying landscape, its limestone geology and its development patterns combine to present an ongoing and sometimes unpredictable threat from the wet stuff that experts fear will become more apparent with increasing temperatures and moisture.
“Virtually the entire state of Florida is a coastal plain,” said Tom Missimer, a hydrogeology professor emeritus at Florida Gulf Coast University’s College of Engineering in Fort Myers, who has been studying water movement for more than half a century. “When we get a large rainfall event, there’s not a lot of storage in the ground to absorb the new water coming in.”
OpenAI scientists have designed MLE-bench — a compilation of 75 extremely difficult tests that can assess whether a future advanced AI agent is capable of modifying its own code and improving itself.

“A Vision for a 100% Hydrogen-Fueled Future In their research and development testing facility, located at the headquarter office outside of Bergen, Norway, Bergen Engines is diligently working toward the development of a 100% hydrogen-fueled engine by the end of this year, and are on track to reach their goal.”
Bergen Engines now increase full natural gas engine range to run on 25% hydrogen in full operation without modification.
