In Smart Home-ish in 2026 ⭐, I wrote about the first steps I took to upgrade our condo in Pennsylvania with some basic smart home capabilities. This involved taking stock of what we had, basically several Sonos speakers and some Hue smart lights, and u… Continue reading Smart Home 2026: Smart Light Switches and Automations ⭐

Matter is built on the idea that smart home devices should be secure, reliable, and easy to use. It is based on Internet Protocol (IP), which allows devices, mobile apps, and cloud services to communicate. Matter also defines a set of IP-based networki… Continue reading What the Matter 1.4.2 update means for smart home security
Gone are the days when all smart devices were required an internet uplink. The WiFi-enabled IoT fad, while still upon us (no, my coffee scale doesn’t need to be on …read more Continue reading Pulling at Threads With the Flipper Zero
Under the right circumstances, electrons can actually “freeze” into a bizarre solid form. Now, physicists at Berkeley Lab have created and taken the first ever direct images of this structure.Continue ReadingCategory: Physics, ScienceTags: Electron Mic… Continue reading First images of electrons forming strange solid crystals
Physicists have created the heaviest clumps of antimatter particles ever seen. Known as antihyperhydrogen-4, this strange stuff could help us solve some of the most puzzling physics mysteries.Continue ReadingCategory: Physics, ScienceTags: Antimatter, … Continue reading Heaviest-ever clumps of antimatter created in atom smasher
Something seems to be missing from the universe, and the favored model of physics calls it “dark matter” – but despite a century of searching, it remains a no-show. A new paper proposes an alternative hypothesis, showing how gravity could exist without… Continue reading Spacetime defects uncouple gravity from mass in dark matter alternative
Time crystals are a strange state of matter with properties that sound impossible, but they have been created. Now, German scientists have made one that lasts 10 million times longer than in previous experiments.Continue ReadingCategory: Physics, Scien… Continue reading Bizarre time crystal oscillates for an unprecedented 40 minutes
Scientists at MIT have directly captured signs of “second sound” in a superfluid for the first time. This bizarre phenomenon occurs when heat moves like sound waves through an unusual state of matter.Continue ReadingCategory: Physics, ScienceTags: Heat… Continue reading Heat caught moving like sound waves in a superfluid for first time
