AI at MIT

At MIT, AI has become so pervasive that you can almost find your way into it without meaning to. Take Sili Deng, an associate professor of mechanical engineering. Deng says she still doesn’t know whether she’d have gone all in on artificial intelligence had it not been for the covid pandemic....

The new word in home construction could be “plastics”

The new word in home construction could be “plastics”

Single-use plastics are a persistent source of environmental pollution, and the need to house a growing global population puts increasing pressure on resources such as timber. MIT engineers have an idea that could make a dent in both problems at once. In a recent study, a team led by mechanical...

ONCE - La plateforme auto-hébergée open-source de 37signals

Payer 15 euros par mois pour un chat d'équipe du genre de Slack, 20 pour un wiki pro, 10 pour un kanban... Et au bout d'un an, vous avez filé l'équivalent d'un MacBook d'occasion à des SaaS qui vivent sur votre dos. C'est ce constat qui a poussé 37signals à ouvrir ONCE. Pour ceux qui rompichent...

Ce matériau composite se répare plus de 1 000 fois et dure des siècles

1 000 fractures. C'est le nombre de cycles de cassure et de réparation qu'un nouveau composite à fibres a encaissé en labo, sans perdre sa capacité à tenir la route. Les ingénieurs de NC State University ont créé un matériau qui se "re-soude" tout seul, et qui pourrait durer entre 125 et...

Car traffic plummeted as people sheltered at home and shifted to remote work. Air travel collapsed. Cities—normally filled with the...

No one’s sure if synthetic mirror life will kill us all

No one’s sure if synthetic mirror life will kill us all

For four days in February 2019, some 30 synthetic biologists and ethicists hunkered down at a conference center in Northern Virginia to brainstorm high-risk, cutting-­edge, irresistibly exciting ideas that the National Science Foundation should fund. By the end of the meeting, they’d landed on a...

Is fake grass a bad idea? The AstroTurf wars are far from over.

Is fake grass a bad idea? The AstroTurf wars are far from over.

A rare warm spell in January melted enough snow to uncover Cornell University’s newest athletic field, built for field hockey. Months before, it was a meadow teeming with birds and bugs; now it’s more than an acre of synthetic turf roughly the color of the felt on a pool table, almost digital in...
