Gen Z invests more cautiously than assumed — data from thousands of accounts

An analysis of thousands of brokerage accounts at Trade Republic by Poland country manager Kamil Szymański shows that Gen Z investors are more cautious than commonly assumed. Cryptocurrencies do not dominate their portfolios; instead, young investors tend to favour ETFs and blue-chip stocks. The popular narrative of Gen Z as reckless speculators does not fully match the actual data.

Does Gen Z invest more responsibly than older generations?

Integrated circuits shaped US tech dominance — and now define the AI race

An article in the "Arsenal of Innovation" series traces the history of semiconductors as the origin story of modern computing and American technological leadership. It highlights a recurring pattern in US innovation: government funding underwrites breakthroughs, and commercial markets scale them into general-purpose technologies. The author argues this dynamic is central to understanding today's competition for AI leadership.

Should the US government fund AI research the way it funded semiconductors?

Physicists create exotic new form of matter in the lab

Experimental physicists have created a surprisingly exotic new form of matter that goes beyond established quantum paradigms. The achievement, described as a "sea of quantum weirdness," involves probing matter states with highly unusual properties. The findings raise new questions about the boundaries of quantum physics.

Should research into exotic forms of matter be a top scientific funding priority?

Two Cities Television developing TV series based on 1969 war film 'Army of Shadows'

Two Cities Television chief Michael Jackson has announced a TV reimagining of Jean-Pierre Melville's 1969 film "Army of Shadows," about the French resistance. The company is developing the project alongside the success of its "Backrooms" adaptation, which bosses describe as "heartening." Jackson says the timing feels right because there is "something in the zeitgeist" that makes the wartime resistance story resonate today.

Hormones in chicken are a myth — fast growth is down to breeding, not chemicals

Experts are firmly debunking the widespread Polish belief that poultry is raised with hormones or steroids, calling it the "stupidest myth in Polish society." The rapid growth of modern chickens is the result of decades of selective breeding, not chemicals — which are banned in the EU. Poles are unnecessarily avoiding poultry counters due to a fear with no factual basis.

Are Poles' fears about hormones in poultry justified?

Alicja Horosz: Bhutan was meant to be a trip of a lifetime — it turned out to be her biggest disappointment

Traveller Alicja Horosz spoke with Sabina Zięba about the countries that impressed her most and those that let her down the most. Bhutan — long shrouded in mystery and for years heavily restricted for foreign tourists — turned out to be her greatest travel disappointment. Despite having visited much of the world, Horosz says some journeys still stay with her for a long time, thanks to landscapes, people and the emotions they stir.

Is Bhutan worth its high cost and tourist restrictions?

US Civil War: industrial North vs feudal South – a fight over money and slavery

In the mid-19th century the US was starkly divided: the capitalist North was building industry while the South maintained a feudal plantation economy based on enslaved labour. The Civil War was therefore a conflict not only over the rights of Black Americans but also over economic dominance and the country's direction. The two regions held incompatible visions for the nation's future.

Was economics a more important cause of the Civil War than slavery?

Internet users shared videos of lasers striking a city as supposed evidence, but fact-checkers and experts say the footage has no connection to the earthquake. The claims are classified as disinformation.

Do social media platforms effectively combat disinformation after natural disasters?
