Most blockchains verify transactions one by one. IONA Protocol verifies thousands at once — inside the kernel, using recursive SNARKs. I've been building IONA OS — a sovereign operating system written entirely in Rust — for the past 13 years. But IONA OS is not just an operating system. It has a native L1 blockchain protocol integrated into the kernel itself. And that blockchain protocol does som…

The wordmark White type on black — the classic case. The whites are selected automatically. glows: whites Original artwork, converted with this tool. Drag the handle; on an HDR display in a capable browser the right side glows. “Use this” loads the original into the tool above. A white ring plus one brand color. Whites and the blue are both pushed to the same peak. glows: whites + #2f6bff Cream t…

Google Quantum AI researchers have determined that breaking the core cryptography of various cryptocurrencies, secured by the secp256k1 curve, may require as few as 1200 logical qubits and 90 million Toffoli gates, a significantly lower threshold than previously understood.

An Amazon MK30 dropped a package into a Texas pool. Zipline's tethered droid and parachute designs show why the 83-pound drone keeps missing.

The Thermalright Fan Frame Vision-1 is a clip-on 3.69-inch screen that snaps directly in front of your PC case fans. These accessories let you display temperature, fan speed, and other information across your case, and even create a unified theme across all the screens in your PC.

Improvements in AI, satellite navigation, and machine vision are helping robotic lawn mowers spread in the U.S., writes Sunseeker's founder. The post The technology that could bring robot mowers to one in two American lawns appeared first on The Robot Report .

A new type of 3D printing could dramatically speed up the way tiny, complex objects are made. Instead of slowly building an object one layer at a time, researchers have developed a technique that can create an entire 3D structure—including hollow spaces inside it—with a single burst of laser light. Scientists at the University of […] The post New 3D Printing Technology Creates Complex Objects in …

Loughborough University physicists and an international team have demonstrated that a grain-of-rice-sized microchip can be used to produce a spectrum of precisely spaced frequencies of light, which is then converted into multiple high-frequency electromagnetic signals known as millimeter waves. Millimeter waves are of growing interest for future communications because they offer much more bandwid…

A layer once dismissed as mere support has transformed a tiny photonic chip into a powerful generator of new light frequencies. A laser usually produces one narrow color of light. A device small enough to sit on a fingertip can turn that single input into hundreds of precisely spaced frequencies, creating a tool for measuring […]
