Several posts and articles, this week, starting with this nice “Quantifying the consensus on anthropogenic global warming in the scientific literature” http://iopscience.iop.org/… (by skepticscience) On Stein’s paradox...

An unknown mathematician, Yitang Zhang, has revolutionized his field and helped move forward a 2,000-year-old conjecture about prime numbers.

Here at Wolfram Research and at Wolfram|Alpha we love mathematics and computations. Our favorite topics are algorithms, followed by formulas and equations.

Scientists say 1.5-billion-year-old water drilled from rock in a North American mine is the most ancient yet found on Earth.

Introduction
This is an exciting time for astronomy — we are just now beginning to obtain spectra from exoplanets. I was reading an article on Space.com about some great work on obtaining the spectra from planets orbiting HR 8799.

Main Point:
Scientists have found, for the first time, an alien planet, dubbed as "Einstein's planet", with the help of the Einstein's Theory of Relativity.

I want to live longer and help others do the same. I assumed the most effective way to do that is by understanding the science of aging and then engineering solutions to extend human lifespan.

Le débat sur l'obsolescence programmée part sur de mauvaises bases. On ne sait pas de quoi on parle. Qu'est-ce à dire qu'un constructeur diminue délibérément la durée de vie d'un produit pour augmenter son chiffre d'affaire ?
