Sun Clock: a 24-hour clock that tells more than just the time

Researchers have found a way to describe “crowd hydrodynamics” that doesn’t assume the behaviours of the crowd itself: The physicists focused on cohorts of runners at the beginning of a marathon, as they are guided to the starting line by a row of organizers in successive sequences of walking and halting. This protocol creates a periodic and controlled disturbance similar to the stimulations that are typically used to probe the mechanical response of fluids.
Look, it's a 3D-printed bee hive!
Un-bee-lievable!
Why do you never see baby pigeons?
That’s a coo-l fact!
megalog_ posted the files to 3D-print your own skateboard on Printables. It’s almost completely 3D printed including the trucks and the board and judging by the comments, it’s a decent finish with some adjustments needed.
I wrote about some Danish students who created a rotary phone that dialled up the internet a while back and now there’s a Linux kernel driver by Stefan Wiehler that can transform a rotary phone into an input device. Who said these phones would be obsolete?
In the latest episode of The Joy of Why podcast, Janna Levin and Steven Strogatz discussed string theory and whether we’ll ever be able to prove it. As you’d expect, it’s not a straightforward answer.
TIL: Argentinian drivers have been using paper licence plates due to cuts
Cutbacks!
Cryogenics and other sciences could advance with the help of another bigger particle collider
You’re joking! Not another one!
Hackaday on the Web's sad transition from pages to apps
Bring back HTML (joking not joking)
Mozilla is closing Pocket for some reason. It was one of the few useful services in a sea of unnecessary AI-saturated apps. If you’re looking for alternatives, I recommend Raindrop and Instapaper.
“Is It Toxic To?” is a website and Raycast extension that tells you which plants are dangerous for your pets if they happen to ingest them.
