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

Your Consciousness May Emerge From a Mysterious Quantum Field, Radical New Theory Suggests

This interaction could help explain both why quantum processes can occur within environments like the brain and why we lose consciousness under anesthesia.

Consciousness may come from the brain’s weird computing style

Consciousness has long resisted neat explanations, but a growing body of research suggests the problem may lie in how we ...

Show HN: We built procurement automation for small teams stuck in spreadsheets

Hey HN,A few years ago, we built a custom procurement system for a Japanese - German manufacturing company. They had hundreds of suppliers, frequent backorders, and a procurement process held together by Excel, email, and manual follow-ups. Receiving goods at the warehouse was painfully slow: staff manually matched incoming items to packing lists, checked quantities by hand, and entered everything into spreadsheets. Orders were missed, documents got lost, and a lot of time was spent just chasing

Show HN: Prav-core – A no_std, zero-allocation QEC decoder in Rust

I am building prav-core to solve the "latency crisis" in Fault-Tolerant Quantum Computing. In superconducting architectures, the control loop has a hard real-time deadline (often <1us) to correct errors before qubits dephase.Most academic decoders are optimized for high thresholds but suffer from non-deterministic jitter (GC pauses, allocation overhead) that makes them unusable on hardware. prav-core is a bare-metal Union-Find decoder written in pure Rust with #![no_std] and strictl

Valori – Deterministic Substrate for AI (Code and ArXiv Paper)

I've published a paper on a fundamental problem in AI systems that I believe has significant implications for our work: "Valori: A Deterministic Memory Substrate for AI Systems." [https://arxiv.org/pdf/2512.22280]THE PROBLEM :AI systems have unreliable memory.When you run the same AI agent twice with the same input, it can give you different answers not because the AI is "thinking differently," but because the underlying memory system is non-determini

Aging Weakens Immunity. An mRNA Shot Turned Back the Clock in Mice.

The treatment converted the liver into an immune cell “nursery” that pumped out greater numbers of healthy T cells. Our immune system is a fierce brigade. Roaming immune cells scan for bacteria, viruses, and other invaders. They also communicate with tissues to catch early signs of cancer. After detecting a threat, the immune system kickstarts formidable defenses to snuff it out.But our immunity loses power as we age. Immune cells dwindle, and those that remain struggle to perform th

Entanglement enhances the speed of quantum simulations, transforming long-standing obstacles into a powerful advantage

Researchers from the Faculty of Engineering at The University of Hong Kong (HKU) have made a significant discovery regarding quantum entanglement. This phenomenon, which has long been viewed as a significant obstacle in classical quantum simulations, actually enhances the speed of quantum simulations. The findings are published in Nature Physics in an article titled "Entanglement accelerates quantum simulation."

Exotic quasiparticles glimpsed in graphene

<p>Nature, Published online: 07 January 2026; <a href="https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-025-04016-1">doi:10.1038/d41586-025-04016-1</a></p>Bilayer graphene has been used to observe robust interference patterns consistent with the presence of fractionally charged quasiparticles known as non-Abelian anyons. Demonstrating and controlling this interference is a crucial step towards harnessing these elusive quasiparticles as building blocks for fault-tolerant quantum computers.

Scientists are closing in on the Universe’s biggest mystery

Nearly everything in the universe is made of mysterious dark matter and dark energy, yet we can’t see either of them directly. Scientists are developing detectors so sensitive they can spot particle interactions that might occur once in years or even decades. These experiments aim to uncover what shapes galaxies and fuels cosmic expansion. Cracking this mystery could transform our understanding of the laws of nature.

Scientists tried to break Einstein’s speed of light rule

Einstein’s claim that the speed of light is constant has survived more than a century of scrutiny—but scientists are still daring to test it. Some theories of quantum gravity suggest light might behave slightly differently at extreme energies. By tracking ultra-powerful gamma rays from distant cosmic sources, researchers searched for tiny timing differences that could reveal new physics. They found none, but their results tighten the limits by a huge margin.

Show HN: Formal Verification via Spectral Geometry (Lean 4)

I know the history of P vs NP claims on Hacker News. I know the skepticism, and usually, it is warranted. Most attempts are 100-page PDFs hidden behind dense, unverified notation.This is different. We decided that human-readability was no longer the standard for a claim of this magnitude. Machine-verification is.We have formally verified the logical inconsistency between the P=NP Hypothesis and Spectral Geometry (specifically the Witten-Helffer-Sjostrand Tunneling Theorem) using Lean 4.The Logic
