Tesla’s Big Moves Just Changed EVERYTHING

Tesla is poised for massive growth in autonomy and investor opportunities driven by the expansion of its Full Self-Driving feature, robo-taxi fleet, and new model launches, signaling a significant shift in its business and valuation.

Questions to inspire discussion.

FSD and Robotaxi Rollout.
🚗 Q: What improvements are expected in Tesla’s FSD version 14? A: FSD v14 is anticipated to be 100-1000x better than v13, with 2 million miles between safety-critical disengagements, making it safer than human drivers.

A Review on the Roles of Photoacoustic Imaging for Conventional and Novel Clinical Diagnostic Applications

Photoacoustic imaging is a promising medical imaging modality that enables the visualization of molecular functional and morphological information of biological tissues. Its clinical potential has been widely investigated for assessing and diagnosing various diseases. Currently, several research groups are developing photoacoustic imaging systems for translation from the laboratory to the clinic. In particular, the integration of photoacoustic imaging into existing diagnostic ultrasound applications, such as cancer diagnosis, has shown promising results. Additionally, recent research has explored the application of photoacoustic imaging for novel clinical uses. In this review paper, recent trials of photoacoustic imaging in both conventional and novel clinical applications are summarized and evaluated.

Induced somatic mutation accumulation during skeletal muscle regeneration reduces muscle strength

With aging, somatic mutations accumulate in cellular DNA; however, whether they drive age-related functional decline is incompletely understood. Here the authors show that these mutations can weaken muscle repair and reduce strength after injury, suggesting they play a role in age-related physical decline in mouse muscle.

Space-time, the interwoven fabric of space and time

Few ideas in modern science have reshaped our understanding of reality more profoundly than space-time: the interwoven fabric of space and time at the heart of Albert Einstein’s theory of relativity.

Space-time is frequently described as the fabric of reality. In some accounts, this fabric is referred to as a fixed, four-dimensional block universe, a complete map of all events, past, present and future.

In others, it’s a dynamic field that bends and curves in response to gravity. But what does it really mean to say that space-time exists? What kind of thing is it? Is space-time structure, substance or metaphor?

New study counters idea that Jupiter’s mysterious core was formed by a giant impact

A new Durham University study has found that a giant impact may not be responsible for the formation of Jupiter’s remarkable “dilute” core, challenging a theory about the planet’s history.

Jupiter, the largest planet in our solar system, has a mystery at its heart. Unlike what scientists once expected, its core doesn’t have a sharp boundary but instead gradually blends into the surrounding layers of mostly hydrogen (a structure known as a dilute core).

How this dilute core formed has been a key question among scientists and astronomers ever since NASA’s Juno spacecraft first revealed its existence.
