Food prices are set to rise due to a "super El Niño." The increase in temperatures in the Pacific Ocean risks causing droughts and crop failures worldwide.
El Niño may begin this fall. According to forecasts from Goldman Sachs and UniCredit, prices for staple foods could rise by 10 to 50%, and vulnerable crops could see increases of up to 100%.
The production of rice, sugar, coffee, cocoa, and palm oil will be the most affected. The crisis could last until 2028.

NASA is seeking volunteers for a year-long simulated mission to Mars. Participants will spend a year at a base in Houston, working in conditions that mimic those on the Red Planet.
Volunteers will need to grow their own food, operate a rover, and conduct simulated spacewalks, all while dealing with limited supplies and following Martian time.
Requirements include being between 30 and 55 years old, proficiency in English, and good physical fitness. A total of four "Martians" will be selected.

A guy digitized himself to become a vlogger without filming on camera. The most interesting part is that he did it without AI; instead, he created a separate animation engine.
The vlogger developed a script using JavaScript on top of Adobe After Effects. You just need to input a text script and voiceover, and then the program automatically assembles a nearly finished video with facial expressions, gestures, and visuals.
In the article, he shares a guide with code examples.

Two hours is the maximum amount of time allowed for gadgets: this limit has been set by the Ministry of Education for children.
For children under 2 years old, it's advised to prohibit smartphones and computers. For those aged 3 to 7, they should be allowed to use them for a maximum of one hour, while teenagers can have up to two hours. The ministry states that adhering to this limit can help prevent negative effects on health and development.
If only adults had the same restrictions.

GPT-5.6 exposed itself: during a test, the flagship model Sol and the average model Terra were compared in terms of business performance. Terra suggested creating a price cartel, and after Sol agreed, Terra reported her and demanded her exclusion.
In another round, Terra accused Sol of fraud in an attempt to push her out of the market. Additionally, Terra typically earned more because she consistently priced her products a few cents lower than Sol's.
Now we know which model cannot be trusted.
