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
Knowledge: In quantum physics, more than one reality exists
Can two versions of reality exist at the same time? Physicists say they can — at the quantum level, that is.

Advent of recorded music is much like a BEC
I observe that the advent of recorded music resembles a Bose-Einstein Condensate.
Before recorded music, live performance operated like a fluid, high entropy gas phase. Every performance was a localized, unrepeatable wave function–fundamentally moving and unique each performance.
The advent of recording technology acted as a quantum cooling mechanism. It trapped the sound waves into a fixed state, collapsing in infinite fluid variations into a single, frozen, identical format of data. When mi
Acton – A Better Term for the Observer in Quantum Mechanics
The standard term "observer particle" feels passive, misleading, and incomplete. I propose ACTON as a replacement — an active, irreversible physical interaction that permanently stamps non-fungible reality onto the universe.
I arrived at this word because I was looking for the point where particles stop being fungible.
Protons, neutrons, and electrons are all fungible and essentially recyclable in the universe.
An Acton is the moment when these interchangeable particles become part of
Oracles and Recursive Self Improvement
I've been thinking about recursive self improvement. But especially the likelihood that it will be important soon. Soon means with current LLMs that might just give up or delete the test set or otherwise detach from reality. Call the probability of that happening P. You can estimate P by looking at research tasks and how much they need to get helped along by humans to stay on task.Goedel machines (that prove that the next step is better) try to use maths as an oracle. Which relies on the ma
Rigetti Computing Provides Update on 108-Qubit System
--Rigetti Computing, Inc., a pioneer in full-stack quantum-classical computing, today announced that it is revising its roadmap and adjusting the date for general availability of its 108- qubit quantum computing system, Cepheus™ -1-108 Q. Cepheus-1-108Q is now expected to reach general availability around the end of the first quarter of 2026..
Quantum gravity research links continuous parameters to local operators within the theory itself
A researcher at Kyushu University and his collaborators have shown that continuous parameters in quantum gravity may not be freely adjustable "dials" from outside the theory, but rather arise from operators within the theory itself, supporting the century-old claim by Albert Einstein about the fundamental laws of nature.
