"The key to this discovery was not looking at how the planet reflects sunlight, but how it shines with its own heat. Every planet, even the one frozen to the bone at the ends of the system, emits infrared radiation. "

"It all comes down to the gravitational chaos we observe in the Kuiper Belt. The Kuiper Belt is a debris field of icy rocks beyond Neptune's orbit. That's where Pluto, Eris, Haumea, and thousands of other trans-Neptunian objects live. TNOs for short. If the solar system were a calm, boring place, these objects should orbit in predictable random orbits, but they don't. "

"However, regarding this nuclear energy agreement, the Armenian authorities see in it an opportunity to become independent in this sphere from Moscow. Especially since, well, in the perspective of 2036, the nuclear power plant, which still dates back to Soviet times, is to cease operations. However, here the operator, the supplier of nuclear fuel, is the Russian state-owned Rosatom. And from 2036, the authorities in Armenia would like to become independent. "

"The rules of how people build wealth are already changing extremely quickly. And the easy way of going to college, getting a good job, and buying a house is getting more and more difficult each and every day relative to the advantages that AI gives to capital and top performers. "

"Dark stars are not dark at all. They can be millions of times brighter than the sun. The key is their power source. Our sun and all stars we see in the sky shine due to nuclear fusion, the joining of hydrogen atoms into helium. But dark stars would be powered by something completely different, the annihilation of dark matter. "

"Photons emitted by the first stars as visible or ultraviolet light, traveling through the expanding universe, were stretched into the infrared range. And therein lies Webb's genius. Our eyes, and even the Hubble telescope, cannot see this infrared. Cosmic dust and the expansion of the universe have hidden these primordial objects from us for centuries. Webb, with its infrared detectors, simply lifts this veil. "

"Greece has officially invited India to join a trilateral defence alliance with Cyprus and Israel. The alliance, established in December last year in response to security threats in the Eastern Mediterranean, focuses on maritime defence, energy resource intelligence, and joint military exercises. "

"Every single year, without fail, the stock market drops. Like, take a look at this. Even in years where the market finished higher, we saw 10 to sometimes 20% declines. "

"Kevin Worsh served as the Fed governor from 2006 to 2011 during the Great Financial Crisis while the Fed was creating government bailouts, market back stops, and essentially trying to keep the entire financial system from falling apart. "

"Like even in 2022 Kevin Worse said that the Fed waited too long to raise interest rates. He claimed the Fed lost credibility by overstimulating postcoid. He believed quantitative easing inflates asset bubbles and worsens inequality. And he wanted a smaller balance sheet with more focus on stability. "

"The thing is, as of today, the markets are unsure of exactly what to expect. Like for the last year, Trump has repeatedly promised lower interest rates. He's openly criticized Jerome Powell for not cutting interest rates faster and more aggressively. "

"From there, when he was asked if the stock market would have to fall, he responded with, "If the central bank were forced to focus on the real economy, the financial markets will take care of itself." Implying that yes, the markets will fall, but long term it'll be for the greater good of society since the rich won't just keep getting richer. "

"From there in 2011, despite Kevin War saying that stimulus wasn't needed, the Federal Reserve announced an additional $600 billion injection into the economy to help the housing market. But Kevin Wars was a very fierce opponent, calling the benefits small and fleeting and the risks potentially large. "

"It's also not unusual for February to be one of the worst months of the year for stocks with being on average negative since the 1950s. "

"The average person spends like 25 to 33% of their income to housing. "

"Therefore, it was commonly believed that in biology, in our warm, wet, noisy bodies, quantum effects have no right to exist. And on a large scale, of course, they do not exist, which we can see, for example, by the fact that I can lift this cup. "
