For the past year and a half since ChatGPT was released, a frightening question has hovered over the heads of major online publishers: what would happen if Google decided to overhaul its main search engine to give greater prominence to generative artificial intelligence – and in would it interrupt our business in the meantime? ?The question speaks to one of the most fragile dependencies in today's online media ecosystem.Most large publishers, including the New York Times, get a significant share of traffic from people who go to Google, search for something, and click on articles about it. That traffic, in turn, allows publishers to sell ads and subscriptions, which pay for the next wave of articles, which Google can then show to people searching for the next thing.The whole symbiotic...

Benny Gantz, a centrist member of Israel's war cabinet, presented Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu with an ultimatum on Saturday, saying he will leave the government if he does not soon develop a plan for the future of the war in Gaza.While Gantz's departure would not overthrow the country's emergency wartime government, the move would further strain a fragile coalition that has provided Netanyahu's far-right government with a boost of international legitimacy, and would make the prime minister once again more dependent on the government. its intransigent partners.“If we choose the path of fanatics, dragging the country into the abyss, we will be forced to leave the government,” Gantz said in a televised news conference. “We will turn to the people and build a government...

It takes a lot of energy to grow a baby – ask anyone who's been pregnant. But scientists are only now finding out how much.In a study published Thursday in the journal Science, Australian researchers estimated that a human pregnancy requires nearly 50,000 food calories over the course of nine months. That's the equivalent of about 50 pints of Ben and Jerry's Cherry Garcia ice cream, and much more than the researchers expected.Previous estimates were lower because scientists generally assumed that most of the energy involved in reproduction ends up stored in the fetus, which is relatively small.But Dustin Marshall, an evolutionary biologist at Monash University, and his students found that the energy stored in a baby's tissues represents only about 4% of the total energy c...

Russian forces continued to advance heavily into northeastern Ukraine on Saturday, closing in on a village about 10 miles from the Outer Ring of Kharkiv and raising fears that the city, Ukraine's second largest, could soon be in the range of Russian artillery.The Ukrainian army said Saturday that Russian troops attempted to break through its defenses near the village of Lyptsi, which lies directly north of Kharkiv. The attacks were repelled, but battlefield maps compiled by independent groups that analyzed publicly available videos of the fighting showed that Russian troops had almost reached the outskirts of the village.Ukraine's Khartia Brigade, which is defending Lyptsi, posted a video on Telegram on Friday afternoon in which Russian soldiers could be seen advancing on foot tow...

Robert H. Dennard, an engineer who invented the silicon memory technology that plays an indispensable role in every smartphone, laptop and tablet, died April 23 in Sleepy Hollow, New York. At the age of 91.The cause of death, at the hospital, was a bacterial infection, said his daughter, Holly Dennard.Dennard's pioneering work began at IBM in the 1960s, when equipment to store and archive computer data was expensive, bulky (often machines the size of a room), and slow. He was studying the emerging field of microelectronics, which used silicon-based transistors to store digital bits of information.In 1966, Dennard invented a way to store a digital bit on a transistor: a technology called dynamic random access memory, or DRAM, which holds information like an electrical charge that slow...

Su, yaşamın kaynağıdır ve günlük yaşamımızda suyun kalitesi büyük önem taşır. Ancak suyun temiz ve sağlıklı kalmasını sağlamak için su deposu temizliği kritik bir rol oynar. Su depoları zamanla kirlenir, mikroorganizmalar birikir ve bu durum suyun kalitesini olumsuz etkiler. Bu yüzden su deposu temizliğini düzenli olarak yapmak, sağlığımızı korumak için elzemdir. Su Deposu Temizliğinin Önemi Su depoları, suyun saklandığı yerlerdir ve zamanla çeşitli nedenlerle kirlenebilirler. Toz, yaprak, böcek, hatta kuş pislikleri bile su deposuna girebilir ve suyun kalitesini düşürebilir. Ayrıca, suyun bekleme süresi uzadıkça, depo içindeki suyun kalitesi de düşer. Bu noktada, su deposu temizliği devreye girer. Temizlenmemiş su depoları, bakteri, virüs ve parazitlerin üremesi için ideal bir o...

At school tables and desks transformed into shelters, wartime vendors lined a street, selling used clothes, baby formula, canned food and the rare batch of homemade biscuits.In some cases, entire aid packages – still decorated with the flags of donor countries and intended to be distributed free of charge – were stacked on sidewalks and sold at prices few could afford.Issam Hamouda, 51, stood next to his meager commercial offering: an array of canned vegetables and beans from a relief carton his family received."Most goods found in markets carry the label 'Not for sale,'" he said.Before the war between Israel and Hamas devastated Gaza's economy, he was a driving instructor. Now, Mr. Hamouda supports his family of eight in the only way he can: by reselling some of the food aid ...

With Pride events scheduled around the world in the coming weeks, U.S. officials are preparing for a return of monkeypox, the infectious disease formerly called monkeypox that has affected tens of thousands of gay and bisexual men around the world in 2022. A combination of behavioral changes and vaccination quelled the epidemic, but the majority of people at risk have not yet been vaccinated.The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention warned Thursday of a deadlier version of the disease ravaging the Democratic Republic of Congo and urged people at risk to get vaccinated as soon as possible. So far, no cases of this subtype have been identified outside Africa. But the escalating outbreak in Congo still poses a global threat, just as infections in Nigeria sparked the 2022 outbreak, expe...

Joining the ranks of screen goddess Brigitte Bardot and the Eiffel Tower, another French treasure is being celebrated with its own stamp: the baguette.And that's scratch and sniff.The latest showcase of French cultural heritage as Paris prepares to host millions of visitors for the Summer Olympics and Paralympics, the new stamp features a cartoon image of a baguette wrapped in a tricolor ribbon.It was inaugurated by the French post office on Thursday 16 May, the feast day of Saint Honoré, patron saint of bakers.“The baguette, the bread of our daily life, the symbol of our gastronomy, the jewel of our culture,” praised the usually unobtrusive postal service in describing its new offering.The stamp, intended to be used for international letters weighing up to 20 grams, or about 0.7 ounce...
