TAKE A PEEK INSIDE A FLICKERING CANDLE FLAME WITH THESE 3D-PRINTED SHAPES

MIT researchers combined high-resolution imaging with deep machine learning to sonify a single candle flame. They then used that single flame as a basic building block, creating "music" out of its flickering dynamics and designing novel structures that could be 3D-printed into physical objects.

Make Dope Charts, Diagrams, And Vector Art With Zero Design Skills | The Futurist

MAKE DOPE CHARTS, DIAGRAMS, AND VECTOR ART WITH ZERO DESIGN SKILLS

Drawing a diagram requires precision skills, crisp graphics, and neat layouts that line up perfectly.

Now You Can Get Tax Benefits By Investing In Crypto For Your Retirement | Bitcoin IRA

NOW YOU CAN GET TAX BENEFITS BY INVESTING IN CRYPTO FOR YOUR RETIREMENT

An IRA, or Individual Retirement Account, is a great way to save and grow your money over the long term. With a Bitcoin IRA, you'll be benefitting from the same tax breaks that investors in traditional IRAs receive but with a few extra advantages to go along with them. While a traditional IRA is capped at $6,000 in contributions per year, there are no such regulations yet applied to a Bitcoin IRA, which means you're free to invest as much as you want, as long as it's not in crypto holdings you already have now. While the early booms of cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin can be seductive, a better long-term investment strategy is often a better alternative, and a Bitcoin IRA might be just the thing for you if you're interested in both the future of crypto and building a retirement nest egg. If that describes you, just head over to the Bitcoin IRA site to get started, now. Bitcoin IRA

After all, how can one top such a historical image as the first-ever direct photo of a supermassive black hole, M87, if not by actually collecting footage of the everchanging shadow of these elusive objects?
