Drunk, drugged 20-year-old caught doing 167 km/h on S17 expressway

Police stopped a driver travelling at 167 km/h on the S17 expressway. The 20-year-old was under the influence of alcohol and drugs and had previously had his licence revoked. Officers found marijuana, mephedrone and electronic scales in the car; the driver attempted to throw out a package of drugs before being stopped.

Should driving under the influence of drugs carry harsher penalties?

Scientists discover lost 35-million-year-old branch of Australia's marsupials

Fossils unearthed in Queensland, Australia, point to a newly recognised marsupial order that may have survived on the continent for around 35 million years. The discovery challenges the long-held view that all Australian marsupials descended from a single straightforward ancestral lineage. Researchers say the find rewrites part of the evolutionary story of Australia's unique mammals.

Should this discovery prompt scientists to revise the entire evolutionary history of marsupials?

Robot develops human-like reflex without explicit programming

Researchers have developed a robot that independently developed a human-like reflex without being explicitly programmed to do so. The machine learned to react automatically to stimuli, bringing it closer to the way the human nervous system operates.

Are robots equipped with human-like reflexes safe for use in everyday life?

Zcash's new Zakura node targets Visa-scale 50,000 transactions per second

The Zcash project has launched a new node client called Zakura, designed to push the network's throughput from roughly one private transaction per second to 50,000 per second – comparable to Visa's payment network. It is the first live component of a broader roadmap to scale Zcash to payment-network size. The goal is to deliver mass-scale transaction privacy.

Does Zcash have a real chance of becoming a viable alternative to Visa?

Wall-printing 3D printer startup brought debt instead of profits

An investor describes her biggest investment mistake: purchasing a 3D printer marketed as capable of printing designs directly onto walls. Instead of the expected profits, the device generated only debts and financial losses. The story serves as a cautionary tale about rushing into unproven tech investments without proper market validation.

Is investing in unproven technologies too risky?

Are Women the Villains in Wajda's "Hunting Flies"? Awarded Essay Explores the Question

Jan Brzozowski received a distinction in the 11th edition of the "Powiększenie" film criticism competition for his essay on Andrzej Wajda's late-1960s film "Hunting Flies." The author examines whether women are truly the villains in the film, or whether that role belongs to what he calls "effeminate alpha males." The piece is written as a literary dialogue, a form with a tradition stretching from Plato to Oscar Wilde.

A TV costs just a few grosz per hour — real electricity hogs are in the bathroom and kitchen

Watching television typically costs just a few to over a dozen grosz per hour, making a TV one of the cheapest household devices to run. The real energy consumers are appliances in the bathroom, kitchen and laundry room, such as tumble dryers, washing machines and water heaters. High electricity bills are rarely caused by television use.
