Mathematicians are chasing a number that may reveal the edge of maths

It all stems from a seemingly simple question: how do you know if a
computer program will run forever? Answering this starts with
mathematician Alan Turing. In the 1930s, he showed that any computer
algorithm can be mimicked by imagining a simple Turing machine that
reads and writes 0s and 1s on an infinitely long tape by following a
set of instructions called states, with more complex algorithms
requiring more states.

When Omnichannel Retailers Dont Deliver What Customers Ordered -

[[link removed]}&lead=419599&emailid=209104&nl=daily]
Retailers with brick-and-mortar networks have increasingly turned to
store-based fulfillment to compete with online platforms, but the
concept is far from new. As early as the late 19th century, the worlds
oldest department store, Au Bon March, was already using its physical
retail space to fulfill mail orders, delivering goods by horse and
carriage. Fast forward to the digital age, and this ship-from-store
model has re-emerged as a strategic response to the rise of
e-commerce. During the pandemic, the model, a prime example of
omnichannel fulfillment, went mainstream, promising faster, cheaper
delivery by using local stores to fulfill online orders. Walmart now
fulfills half of its online orders through stores. Target, after a $3
billion investment, fulfills 95% through nearly 2,000 locations.

This past spring, the entertainment and lifestyle website Bustle saw
huge spikes in traffic for a handful of stories between 150,000 and
300,000 search views each, compared to the usual 1,000 or less. Bustle
had long struggled to place high in SEO rankings or land on the Google
News module, but recent months had been particularly brutal, and the
spikes prompted emergency meetings to figure out how to keep them
going. Bryan Goldberg made it a top priority of the company to see if
they could duplicate that success, said a former staffer, referring to
Bustles CEO. Goldberg made a few new hires and even pulled people from
other teams to create a new team that would help crank out similar

A new way to wobble: Scientists uncover mechanism that causes

Instead of a tempest in a teapot, imagine the cosmos in a canister.
Scientists have performed experiments using nested, spinning cylinders
to confirm that an uneven wobble in a ring of electrically conductive
fluid like liquid metal or plasma causes particles on the inside of
the ring to drift inward. Since revolving rings of plasma also occur
around stars and black holes, these new findings imply that the
wobbles can cause matter in those rings to fall toward the central
mass and form planets.

The development of AI that is more broadly capable than humans will
create a new and serious threat: *AI-enabled coups*. An AI-enabled
coup could be staged by a very small group, or just a single person,
and could occur even in established democracies. Sufficiently advanced
AI will introduce three novel dynamics that significantly increase
coup risk. Firstly, military and government leaders could fully
replace human personnel with AI systems that are *singularly loyal* to
them, eliminating the need to gain human supporters for a coup.
