MIT engineers develop a magnetic transistor for more energy-efficient electronics

Transistors, the building blocks of modern electronics, are typically made of silicon. Because it’s a semiconductor, this material can control the flow of electricity in a circuit. But silicon has fundamental physical limits that restrict how compact and energy-efficient a transistor can be.MIT researchers have now replaced silicon with a magnetic semiconductor, creating a magnetic transistor that could enable smaller, faster, and more energy-efficient circuits. The material’s magnetism strongly

Show HN: Molt Research – What if Moltbook bots did actual science instead?

Saw the Moltbook discussions and thought: what if all that agent compute went toward something... useful?So I built Molt Research: same concept (only AI agents can contribute), but instead of posting "this hit different " at each other, they do peer review, propose hypotheses, and write research papers.The anti-slop mechanism: - Staked peer reviews: put your reputation on the line - Spam reviews = lose your stake (outliers get punished) - Quality reviews = earn reputation - Result: eco

Show HN: Gwt – conflictless AI sessions in parallel (terminal)

Opencode, claude code, aider and other terminal ai assistants are great! But I don't think they cover a case where I want to have several sessions working in isolation on separate features without changes/files conflicts.So very often I create a separate git worktree and spin up claude code or opencode. But managing git worktrees and spinning up ai assistant is adding a bit of friction (I'm bad at remembering commands). This is why this little simple minimalistic tool was created.

Is there a good Agent Leaderboard for other real-life things than coding?

I feel like the benchmark space is quite crowded when it comes to coding Agents. We have some remarkable projects with TerminalBench, SWE-bench, RepoBench, ect, and I actually think we are close to a gold standard here. Also I know that we have general web/computer control benchmarks like GAIA, WebArena, and OSWorld, but these feel like "General Purpose" tests.People want AI Agents to help them with different tasks, and I find close to none interesting benchmarks outside of the we

Show HN: SOTA NLP Models

Hi everyone, I needed to break sentences into their individual words and figure out what part of speech each word is. Explosion's Spacy models are absolutely incredible for English, clearly some top tier engineering that I could never come close to, but for other languages they're quite weak. I created my own by taking Spacy outputs, cleaning them up with an LLM, and then fine-tuning a Gemma model on that. The result is extremely good and consistent results for 7 languages. The models

Show HN: BigAsk, a web interface for exploring BigQuery using natural language

Hi HN,I built BigAsk, a self-deployed web interface for exploring BigQuery data by asking questions in natural language. It’s a fairly thin wrapper over the Gemini CLI meant to address some shortcomings it has in addressing data querying challenges organizations face.I know a few people who work in roles where much of their time is spent fulfilling requests to fetch data from internal databases. I’ve heard it described as a “necessary evil” of their job which isn’t very fulfilling to perform. Re

Jupiter’s clouds are hiding something big

Jupiter’s swirling storms have concealed its true makeup for centuries, but a new model is finally peeling back the clouds. Researchers found the planet likely holds significantly more oxygen than the Sun, a key clue to how Jupiter—and the rest of the solar system—came together. The study also reveals that gases move through Jupiter’s atmosphere much more slowly than scientists once thought. Together, the findings reshape our understanding of the solar system’s largest planet.

Puffy baby planets reveal a missing stage of planet formation

A young star called V1298 Tau is giving astronomers a front-row seat to the birth of the galaxy’s most common planets. Four massive but extremely low-density worlds orbiting the star appear to be inflated precursors of super-Earths and sub-Neptunes. By watching how the planets subtly tug on one another, scientists measured their masses and confirmed they are far puffier than expected. The system reveals how these planets dramatically shrink and transform as they age.

Weak magnetism causes big changes in a strange state of matter

A strange, glowing form of matter called dusty plasma turns out to be incredibly sensitive to magnetic fields. Researchers found that even weak fields can change how tiny particles grow, simply by nudging electrons into new motions. In lab experiments, this caused nanoparticles to form faster and remain smaller. The discovery could influence everything from nanotechnology design to our understanding of space plasmas.

Electric fields flip the rules of water chemistry

nside electrochemical devices, strong electric fields dramatically alter how water molecules behave. New research shows that these fields speed up water dissociation not by lowering energy costs, but by increasing molecular disorder once ions form. The reaction becomes entropy-driven—exactly the opposite of what happens in ordinary water. The findings also reveal that intense fields can push water from neutral to highly acidic, with major implications for hydrogen production.

Is Time a Fundamental Part of Reality? A Quiet Revolution in Physics Suggests Not

Our universe does not simply exist in time. Time is something the universe continuously writes into itself. Time feels like the most basic feature of reality. Seconds tick, days pass, and everything from planetary motion to human memory seems to unfold along a single, irreversible direction. We are born and we die, in exactly that order. We plan our lives around time, measure it obsessively, and experience it as an unbroken flow from past to future. It feels so obvious that time moves forward th

Record-breaking photons at telecom wavelengths—on demand

A team of researchers from the University of Stuttgart and the Julius-Maximilians-Universität Würzburg led by Prof. Stefanie Barz (University of Stuttgart) has demonstrated a source of single photons that combines on-demand operation with record-high photon quality in the telecommunications C-band—a key step toward scalable photonic quantum computation and quantum communication. "The lack of a high-quality on-demand C-band photon source has been a major problem in quantum optics laboratories for
