Hawking and Einstein Confirmed: In a groundbreaking cosmic event, the collision of two black holes has validated predictions made by both Stephen Hawking and Albert Einstein. Observations from gravitational wave observatories confirmed Hawking's area theorem, showing that the surface area of the resulting black hole increased, and matched Einstein's predictions regarding the black hole's ring down, revealing a new Kerr black hole.Moss Survives in Space: Astonishingly, moss spores exposed to the harsh conditions of space on the International Space Station for nine months were able to germinate upon their return to Earth. This remarkable resilience of extremophiles supports theories like panspermia, suggesting that life's building blocks could survive interplanetary journeys.Balloon-Based Astronomy: The Excalibur mission is revolutionizing observational astronomy by utilizing a telescope suspended from a high-altitude balloon. Operating above 99% of Earth's atmosphere, it measures high-energy X-ray polarization from cosmic objects like the Crab Nebula and Cygnus X1, providing unprecedented insights into their magnetic fields and structures.Mystery of the Misaligned Exoplanet: Astronomers are puzzled by TOI 3884, a super Neptune with a bizarrely tilted orbit of 62 degrees. Lacking any nearby massive objects to explain its unusual trajectory, scientists are left with unconventional theories about its formation, highlighting the chaotic nature of planetary systems.Is the Universe Infinite? The question of whether the universe is infinite remains unresolved. While measurements of the cosmic microwave background suggest a flat geometry, which implies infinity, our observable horizon limits our ability to confirm this. The potential for a finite universe with complex topology adds further complexity to this profound inquiry.For more cosmic updates, visit our website at astronomydaily.io.

Wait, what? Is it time for the podcast again? Seems like only yesterday that Dan joined Elliot for the weekly rundown of the choicest hacks for the last 1/52 of a year. but here we are. We had quite a bit of news to talk about, including the winners of the Component Abuse Challenge -- warning, some components were actually abused for this challenge. They're also a trillion pages deep over at the Internet Archive, a milestone that seems worth celebrating. As for projects, both of us kicked things off with "Right to repair"-adjacent topics, first with a washing machine that gave up its secrets with IR and then with a car that refused to let its owner fix the brakes. We heated things up with a microwave foundry capable of melting cast iron -- watch your toes! -- and looked at a tiny ESP32 dev board with ludicrously small components.  We saw surveyors go to war, watched a Lego sorting machine go through its paces, and learned about radar by spinning up a sonar set from first principles. Finally, we wrapped things up with another Al Williams signature "Can't Miss Articles" section, with his deep dive into the fun hackers can have with the now-deprecated US penny, and his nostalgic look at pneumatic tube systems.

In this episode we meet Paul, KI7ADC, and Raoul, W7RPS, both avid users of the Icom IC-905 VHF/UHF/SHF radio.  We talk about what attracted them to operate on the microwave bands and what it took to get their portable stations all set up.  Paul and Raoul live in the Portland metro area and have had experience on the ground and mountain topping with the IC-905.  They have explored using SSB, FM, D-STAR and ATV modes on 1.2 GHz, 2.4 and 5.6 GHz. If you have ever been interested in moving up the frequency spectrum to the microwave bands, the IC-905 is a very easy way to get up and on the air.

This finding contradicts previous theories suggesting that the expansion was accelerating due to dark energy. We delve into the implications of this research, which indicates that dark energy may be evolving more rapidly than previously understood, potentially marking a paradigm shift in cosmology. The episode discusses various scenarios for the universe's future, including the Big Crunch, Steady State theory, Big Freeze, and Big Rip, and how these new observations could reshape our understanding of cosmic fate.First Glimpse of the Sun's Polar Magnetic FieldAstronomers have captured their first detailed view of the Sun's polar magnetic field in motion, revealing unexpected rapid movements. The Solar Orbiter spacecraft has provided insights into the Sun's magnetic activity, which follows an 11-year cycle. This segment highlights the significance of the findings, which enhance our understanding of solar dynamics and the implications for space weather.Current Surge in Space Weather EventsAs the Sun reaches solar maximum, astronomers are observing increased solar storm activity, including multiple X-class and M-class solar flares. This segment discusses the effects of coronal mass ejections on Earth, including spectacular auroras and potential disruptions to technology and power grids. We explore the science behind solar flares and their impact on our planet, providing a comprehensive overview of current space weather conditions.www.spacetimewithstuartgary.com✍️ Episode ReferencesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical SocietyAstrophysical Journal LettersNature GeoscienceJournal of the American Medical AssociationBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/spacetime-your-guide-to-space-astronomy--2458531/support.

This week, we're calling out the microwave marketers — the ones looking for shortcuts to shortcuts, trying to copy their way to success instead of actually learning how to cook.

Foundations of Amateur Radio Recently I explored the use of a radio device aptly described by a fellow Aussie Electronics Engineer, "ozeng", as "Absolute witchcraft." .. I'm talking about an "RF circulator", one of which is sitting quietly on my desk, roughly 60 mm square, 30 mm thick, weighing in at just under half a kilogram, unexpectedly with a 200 year history. Let the spelunking commence .. The moment you start reading the "Circulator" Wikipedia page, you'll see this sentence: "Microwave circulators rely on the anisotropic and non-reciprocal properties of magnetised microwave ferrite material.", with a helpful reference to "Modern Ferrites, Volume 2: Emerging Technologies and Applications", a 416 page reference that promises to dig into the nitty-gritty, showing 55 hits for the word "circulator". Anisotropic you ask? It's the property that describes velvet, rub it one way, it's smooth, rub it the other way and the hair stands up on the back of your neck. Wood is another example, easier to split along the grain than across it. While we're at it, reciprocity in physics is the principle that you can swap the input and output of a linear system and get the same result. If you know me at all, it should come as no surprise that I went looking for an inventor. There's over twelve-thousand patents referring to a "circulator", including more than a handful relating to Nuclear reactors. In 1960, a prolific Jessie L Butler came up with patent US3255450A, "Multiple beam antenna system employing multiple directional couplers in the leadin", which states: "This circulator has the characteristic that energy into one port will leave another port to the exclusion of a third." If you recall, that's the exact phenomenon I used to describe the "RF circulator" on my desk. So, job done, we have our inventor. Not so fast. The patent goes on to say: "Circulators of this type are discussed in an article 'The Elements of Nonreciprocal Microwave Devices' by C.Lester Hogan in Volume 44, October 1956, issue of Proceedings of the IRE, pages 1345 to 1368." The IRE is the Institute of Radio Engineers. I found a copy of that tome, thank you worldradiohistory.com, which includes the following sentence: "Until a few years ago, all known linear passive electrical networks obeyed the theorem of reciprocity. Today several different types of passive nonreciprocal microwave networks are in practical use". A footnote refers to an article by Lord Rayleigh, "On the magnetic rotation of light and the second law of thermodynamics" and includes images of an optical one-way transmission system from 1901. In that 1901 article, Lord Rayleigh in turn refers to a paper published sixteen years earlier in which he observed that light polarisation can be made to violate the general optical law of reciprocity, using a system that consists of two so-called Nicol prisms, a crystal that can convert ordinary light into plane polarised light, invented by William Nicol in 1828. Using two prisms, arranged at a 45 degree angle, you can make light go through it in one way, but not the other. Lord Rayleigh, also known as John William Strutt, in a very sparse footnote, states: "That magnetic rotation may interfere with the law of reciprocity had already been suggested by Helmholtz." Further digging gets me to an 1856 publication of the "Handbuch der physiologischen Optik", or the handbook of the study of how the eye and brain work together, where Helmholtz says that, translated from German, "according to Faraday's discovery, magnetism affects the position of the plane of polarization." This gets us to 1845, where Michael Faraday experimentally discovered that light and electromagnetism are related. His notebook has the following sentence, paragraph 7718 written on the 30th of September 1845: "Still, I have at last succeeded in illuminating a magnetic curve or line of force and in magnetising a ray of light." Today we call that the "Faraday effect" The best part? You can read Michael Faraday's diary, right now, and see the whole thing. So, who then invented the RF circulator? From Mastodon to Circulators, to Modern Ferrites, to Nonreciprocal Microwave Devices, to Multiple beam antennas, to Magnetic Rotation, to Optical Reciprocity, to Nicol prisms, to the Faraday effect, this is the perfect example of standing on the shoulders of giants, and the result sits as a little box on my desk. Just so you don't feel left out, your mobile phone likely has one of these devices on board. I'm Onno VK6FLAB

“You can't implement skills-based hiring by flipping a switch. It's about changing mindsets, systems, and the language your organization uses to describe talent.”-Ashley WallvoordIn this episode of Psych Tech @ Work, me and my AI co-host, Mayda Tokens, welcome fellow I/O psychologist (and LSU Tiger!) Ashley Walvoord, Senior Vice President of Talent at Verizon.We are joined by my AI co-host Mayda Tokens who continues to impress at times and but showing a tendency to be pretty boring at other times and always telling really bad jokes (I think the API to Chat-GPT 5o gets a very different sense of humor than the consumer version).I reached out to Ashley after seeing her SIOP presentation about Verizon's skills based hiring (and organizational transformation) program. Her and her fellow presenters-Max McDaniel (Verizon)Christina-Norris Watts (J & J)Ruth Imose (J & J)Jason Frizel (Walmart)provided amazing insights into their company's' amazing and inspiring skills based hiring programs.The hype around skills based hiring these days makes it seem easy. But talk is cheap- and doing skills based hiring right takes a total ALL IN approach. - one that is rooted in the commitment to become a true skills based organization.Ashley has lived this life and her experience provides an awesome preview of how one of the world's largest organizations is reimagining hiring and development through skills and AI. We are all lucky to have her on the show!Verizon's transformation provides a rare look at how enterprise-scale companies operationalize skills-based hiring while navigating the practical realities of change management, technology integration, and workforce readiness.SummaryThis conversation bridges strategy and execution, offering a clear-eyed view of how a Fortune 50 company is aligning people, process, and technology around skills. Ashley shares the lessons learned from Verizon's commitment to a multi-year, organization wide transformation. A journey with many whistlestops along the way— from defining skills frameworks to embedding them in hiring and internal mobility.Key Themes1. Building Skills Infrastructure at ScaleAshley explains how skills-based hiring starts long before implementation — requiring shared language, governance, and validation across the enterprise. Verizon's approach focuses on sustainability and integration rather than one-off pilots.2. Human Oversight in an AI-Driven SystemAI plays a growing role in matching and mobility, but Ashley underscores that human judgment remains central. The goal isn't automation for its own sake, but augmentation — using technology to help people make better, more equitable decisions.3. Culture Change Through Data TransparencyVerizon's success depends on building trust with employees and leaders by showing the “why” behind skills data and AI insights. Visibility into how skills are used for development and promotion helps drive adoption.4. Enterprise Challenges and Lessons Learned Ashley shares the realities of scaling change: aligning functions, managing vendor relationships, and ensuring consistency across geographies. Her advice is practical — start small, demonstrate impact, and scale what works.5. Future Vision for Skills and AI in Talent Ashley envisions a future where skills become the connective tissue between learning, mobility, and performance — and where AI acts as a trusted partner in enabling opportunity at every level.Takeaways* Enterprise-scale transformation requires governance, not just technology.* AI can accelerate fairness and insight, but must remain transparent and human-centered.* Data visibility is the key to cultural adoption — employees must see personal benefit.* Scaling skills frameworks demands partnership between HR, technology, and business leadership.The future of work will depend on how we align AI, human judgment, and purpose at scale. And a commitment to verifying and managing skills at scale. This is a public episode.

Therapy is individual, context heavy, and it works when you have the right therapist, the time to build trust, and you do the homework between sessions. I share the real world barriers like cost, waitlists, insurance, and fit, then why none of that gets solved by another quick motivational clip.We get into discipline versus motivation and why real discipline is pacing yourself so you can train and live for decades. I talk about recovering from bruised ankles, checking in with your body, and choosing long term consistency over performative grind. We also talk about action and identity, starting with a decision to believe in yourself, then letting your actions reinforce that choice.Men's Mental Health Series interviews are coming back soon.

Is microwave ablation only for simple liver tumors, or can it be a versatile ‘Swiss Army knife' for a wide range of complex cases? In this episode, Dr. Driss Raissi of the University of Kentucky returns to BackTable to join host Dr. Chris Beck for a deep dive into advanced and unconventional microwave ablation techniques. They cover strategies for tackling a wide range of cases, from desmoid tumors to enterocutaneous fistulas.---This podcast is supported by:Medtronic Emprinthttps://www.medtronic.com/emprint---SYNPOSISDr. Raissi shares his ‘pre-burn' technique that desiccates tissue and reduces complications like capsular burst and bleeding. He elaborates on his method for tackling large liver tumors with a single probe through overlapping ablations, needle placement techniques and his ‘lung seal technique' to prevent pneumothorax. Dr. Raissi also shares how his previous experience in the ICU promotes close communication with anesthesiologists and how he ups his ablation game through collaboration, optimizing conditions for safe and effective ablation.The episode explores a series of unique, real-world applications beyond the usual scope of IRs. Dr. Raissi walks us through his novel approach to challenging cases, including cauterization of enterocutaneous fistulas, endometriomas and desmoid tumors. He also compares using microwave or cryoablation for renal cell carcinoma, explaining thought processes based on lesion location and the need for speed and simplicity. The discussion provides an overview of ablation physics and careful techniques that expand treatment possibilities for IR patients.---TIMESTAMPS00:00 - Introduction 04:08 - Advanced Techniques for Liver Tumor Ablation06:06 - Pre-Burning Ablation and Ablating a Range of Lesions16:38 - Lung Ablation22:00 - Partnering with Anesthesia28:53 - Managing Postoperative Pain and Nerve Injuries29:42 - Treating Enterocutaneous Fistulas, Endometriomas & Desmoid Tumors38:49 - Adrenal Gland Ablation: A Case Study44:50 - Microwave vs. Cryoablation for Renal Cell Carcinoma49:06 - Preventing Pneumothorax in Lung Ablation

Today I talk with poet Maya Salameh about her poetry collection, How to Make an Algorithm in the Microwave, which won the prestigious Etal Adnan Poetry Prize in 2022. The judges remarked, “Maya Salameh's poetry stood out for its inventiveness in cracking the code of life ‘between system and culture'…The turns and swerves the poems make are astonishing; the expectations they upend are remarkable… It's a testament to the aesthetic boundaries and intellectual revolt poets of Arab heritage are pushing, breaking, and reinventing.” We talk about what led her to both technology and poetry, language and story-telling, and the challenges and joys of representing life in the diaspora. In a time of war and genocide, Salameh's poetry shows how patterns of life and reproduction and desire persist. In her readings and discussions of three poems, we find a new lexicon and a new grammar.Maya Salameh is the author of Mermaid Theory (Haymarket Books, 2026), How to Make an Algorithm in the Microwave (University of Arkansas Press, 2022), winner of the Etel Adnan Poetry Prize, and the chapbook rooh (Paper Nautilus Press, 2020). She has received fellowships from the National Endowment for the Arts, Sewanee Writers' Conference, Bread Loaf Environmental Writers' Conference, and the President's Committee for the Arts and Humanities, and served as a National Student Poet, America's highest honor for youth poets. Her work has appeared in The Offing, Poetry, Gulf Coast, The Rumpus, AGNI, Mizna, and the LA Times, among others. She can be found @mayaslmh or mayasalameh.com.

In this episode of SpaceTime, we tackle the mysteries of the cosmos with a new mathematical model of the universe and ponder the age-old question: are we alone in the universe?New Model of the UniverseScientists have unveiled a groundbreaking mathematical model aimed at simplifying our understanding of the universe's evolution over the past 13.8 billion years. This innovative research, based on data from the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI), offers fresh insights into the cosmic web's structure, revealing how dark energy influences cosmic expansion. Lead author Leonardo Gianni from the University of Queensland discusses how this model challenges existing paradigms and provides a clearer picture of the universe's complex behaviour, including the impact of voids and collapsing regions of matter.Are We Alone?A new study presented at the European Planetary Science Congress raises intriguing questions about the existence of intelligent alien civilizations. Researchers estimate that the nearest technological society in our galaxy could be over 33,000 light years away, with conditions on their home planets potentially mirroring those of Earth. The study highlights the challenges of sustaining advanced life and the long timelines required for such civilizations to coexist with humanity.Partial Solar EclipseToday, a partial solar eclipse graced the skies over New Zealand, the South Pacific, and parts of Australia and Antarctica. As the Moon passed between the Earth and the Sun, observers witnessed a stunning celestial display with up to 70% of the Sun's face obscured. This remarkable event serves as a reminder of the intricate dance of celestial bodies that shape our night sky.www.spacetimewithstuartgary.com✍️ Episode ReferencesPhysical Review Lettershttps://journals.aps.org/prl/European Planetary Science Congresshttps://www.epsc2025.eu/Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/spacetime-space-astronomy--2458531/support.New Model of the UniverseAre We Alone?Partial Solar EclipseNew Model of the UniverseAre We Alone?Partial Solar Eclipse

“Poetry is like one of the great loves of my life, and I think it's probably the longest relationship I'll ever have. I read a lot of poetry. I also wrote these short stories even when I was pretty young, like in second grade, and the stories kept getting shorter and shorter. My family used to go to Damascus in Syria and Lebanon every summer for three months until 2011, when the Civil War broke out in Syria. In 2015, we made our first return after that gap, and my father and I went to Lebanon for two weeks. It's the first time I felt that I belong. To the extent that was true or not, I'm obviously irrevocably American. I speak broken Arabic. I don't think I could ever live in Lebanon or Syria. But for what it was worth at 15 years old, it was a life-changing trip. I wrote my first official poem on the plane back to San Diego from that trip, and I feel that was a formative moment for me. I felt that I had a story to tell and wanted to put it to paper in the form of poetry.”In this episode of the Speaking Out of Place podcast, Professor David Palumbo-Liutalks with poet Maya Salameh about her poetry collection, How to Make an Algorithm in the Microwave, which won the prestigious Etel Adnan Poetry Prize in 2022.

Urgh, first I need to scrape off this outer layer of Gavin, who has clearly been equating figures of Irish renown with NFL offensive positions. Oh, and what do we have under here? A Steve feature about his washing machine I shouldn't doubt. And, oh god, I've been sick, this is a whole bubbling film of Joe discussing the stagnation of the kitchen. OK get out, I love you again.
