Earth’s Core Should Be Impossible. A New State of Matter Explains It

Is Earth’s core a solid or a liquid? Yes. The mysteries of our own planet’s interior have, in many ways, been harder to crack than those of the rest of the cosmos. We can send probes to the edge of the solar system, and the 42 billion light years to the cosmic horizon are largely transparent—a big enough telescope can see the most distant galaxy. But the 6400km to Earth’s center are both opaque to light and far beyond the reach of any conceivable drill. The best we can do for most of our planetary depths is to listen to the faint rumblings of distant earthquakes and then try to piece together how those seismic waves bounce around the interior.

Project Zomboid identifies and bans over a dozen Steam Workshop mods containing ‘heavily obfuscated code’ that was ‘creating malicious files’

The exploit only affected Build 42 branches of Project Zomboid (the game’s current ‘unstable’ testing release), so if you’re on Build 41, you were “not vulnerable to this specific issue,” the dev said. While The Indie Stone hasn’t determined what the malicious files were actually doing, “we strongly recommend that anyone who downloaded them take appropriate security measures to ensure their system is safe. Simply uninstalling the mods is not sufficient.”

If you use mods in Project Zomboid, check them against the list below to determine if you’ve downloaded and run any of these mods, which all look to be sound or music-related.

Masters of Imitation: How Hackers and Art Forgers Perfect the Art of Deception

Just as de Hory reused old canvases and pigments to make his paintings appear more authentic, attackers employ similar methods in the digital realm, leveraging trusted tools and credentials to make their malicious activity blend in. And while mimicry-based techniques have long been a staple of the attacker’s playbook, over the past couple of years, they have gotten more sophisticated. Living-off-the-Land (LotL) attacks and AI-augmented attack tooling have raised the bar for fakery. CrowdStrike’s 2026 Global Threat Report states that 81% of attacks are now malware-free, relying instead on legitimate tools and techniques, which is the hallmark of LotL tactics. Spotting these fakes quickly isn’t just an option: it’s one of the best chances to disrupt an attack before it causes real harm.

Autonomous or semi-autonomous, these generate fake identities, code, and mimic behaviors at scale.

De Hory had a complex support network to sell his paintings, involving art dealers and other representatives across many countries and cities. When some potential buyers became suspicious, he started selling his works under a variety of pseudonyms. This is similar to what is now happening with the use of inexpensive AI agents. These aren’t just used to forge believable identities to conduct fraud, but are now used to produce exploit code to exfiltrate secrets and scripts to infect endpoints, forming the basis of a larger-scale attack. Sophisticated, self-learning agents observe network behavior and continuously tune their own traffic, mirroring their patterns to fool anomaly detections. They shift C2 traffic into bursts that coincide with legitimate spikes and manipulate their signals just enough to avoid standing out. And legitimate agents are being used as orchestrators of other exploit tools to automate and scale up attacks.

Diego Zarco develops biostasis in Mexico

Cryonics and biostasis have been little known and even less practiced in South America. Diego Zarco is working to change that in Mexico. Diego started Criogenia Avanzada in Mexico City and has been developing and funding the organization, preparing to offer SST (standby, stabilization, and transport) services with storage to be done outside the country.

In this discussion, Max More asks Diego how he become interested in cryonics, what his organization does, where Criogenia Avanzada is located in the city and how it will reach patients quickly, and how his experience in the music industry prepared him for the difficult work of making biostasis work in practice.

What’s inside a masterpiece? Laser scans and AI map paint layers molecule by molecule

Paintings are far more than dabs of oil on canvas. They are complex works of art composed of multiple layers, from primer and glues to the pigments and protective varnishes applied by the artists. Being able to see into these layers and map their chemical makeup is essential for art historians and conservators. A new technique developed by an international team of scientists can now probe paint layers in far greater molecular detail than before.

As they describe in a paper published in the journal Science Advances, the researchers combined a technique called MALDI-MSI (matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry imaging) with an AI named MSIpredictART to help identify the specific pigments and binders present in each layer of a painting.

Current approaches looking at the internal structure of a painting have to run several different tests on tiny samples. MALDI-MSI reduces the need for multiple separate techniques by using a high-resolution laser scan to map both the pigments and the binder or glue that holds them together.

This video tests three real generation-ship proposals against five brutal constraints: gravity, radiation, closed-loop life support, cultural continuity across 400 years, and the selection problem — choosing who gets to go. We break down Chrysalis (a 58 km modular ship that sheds stages like a rocket), Proximum (a civilization carved inside an asteroid), and WFP (a self-assembling micro-city based on MIT research). Along the way we confront governance without a homeworld, genetic bottlenecks, generational memory loss, and why shared rituals might matter more than engine specs. The answer isn’t one ship — it’s three radically different philosophies of what it means to be human in deep space.
