Newly 3D printed metal could be used by Tesla to produce all-electric vehicles with just a few massive parts, thanks to two MIT students. Announced very recently.

Announced very recently, the new sort of steel was created by MIT undergraduates and their graduate student mentor in Germany, not for the construction of the cars but for the die-casting molds that stamp them out in just a few distinct pieces.
Will Filippo Ganna be able to break the record with this bike?
Globally known Italian bicycle manufacturer Pinarello has unveiled a new 3D printed bicycle, “Bolide F HR 3D.” Produced as the fastest one in its field, Italian track and road cyclist Filippo Ganna is preparing to use the bike for his upcoming attempt at the UCI Hour Record.
Pinarello says this enabled it “to introduce new shapes and features that are impossible to replicate” using existing carbon fiber construction techniques.
The Bolide F HR 3D was created expressly for Ganna’s attempt at the UCI Hour Record, which tests cyclists’ endurance by measuring how far they can go on a velodrome track in one hour, as New Scientist reported.

This portal will offer an end-to-end solution to businesses and investors, for the design of projects, seamless approval processes, and easier cost estimations.
Aspect, Clauser, and Zeilinger won the prize for experiments with entangled photons, establishing the violation of Bell inequalities and pioneering quantum information science.
The Nobel Prize in Physics has recently been announced.
The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences has decided to award the Nobel Prize in Physics 2022 to Alain Aspect, John Clauser, and Anton Zeilinger for experiments with entangled photons, establishing the violation of Bell inequalities and pioneering quantum information science.
On Friday, Ars Technica reported that Bruce Willis had sold his likeness for use in deepfakes, according to The Telegraph. Dozens of news sites repeated the Telegraph’s claim. Over the weekend, the BBC discovered that Bruce Willis has “no partnership or agreement” with the firm Deepcake, which is based in Georgia, the Eurasian republic.
It’s unclear how the inaccurate claim originated at The Telegraph. While reporting last Friday, we attempted to verify some of the claims in the original Telegraph article (such as Willis being the first actor to sell his deepfake rights), but we could not do so, and we noted that in the report. We also noted that Deepcake is doing business in America under a corporation registered in Delaware. However, we failed to follow through with verifying the entire claim, and we apologize for the error and for repeating the erroneous information.
It’s unclear if Deepcake ever had the rights to use Bruce Willis’ likeness on its website or in its marketing materials. Deepcake told the BBC, “What he definitely did is that he gave us his consent (and a lot of materials) to make his Digital Twin.” Deepcake also claims, per The Hollywood Reporter, that the company’s involvement with Willis arrived through the Creative Artists Agency for use in a 2021 Russian cell phone commercial. However, Willis’ representatives still deny having any involvement with the company.
They say that nobody understands quantum mechanics. But thanks to these three pioneers in quantum entanglement, perhaps we do.
Summary: A new theory of consciousness suggests decisions are made unconsciously, then about half a second later, they become conscious.

Consciousness is your awareness of yourself and the world around you. This awareness is subjective and unique to you.
