Research team proposes a novel type of acoustic crystal with smooth, continuous changes in elastic properties

Posted by in category: futurism

In dim light a cat sees much better than you do, as do dogs and nocturnal animals. That’s because the structure of a cat’s eye has a tapetum lucidum, a mirror-like layer immediately behind the retina. Light entering the eye that is not focused by the lens onto the retina is reflected off the tapetum lucidum, where the retina gets another chance to receive the light, process it, and send impulses to the optic nerve.

Reddit CEO Defends His Absurdly High Pay While Not Paying Mods

Posted by in category: futurism

Much-hated Reddit founder and CEO Steve Huffman gifted himself a stunning $193 million compensation package — while unpaid moderators on the platform have yet to see a single dollar, as Variety reports.

It’s an especially pertinent topic given that the company went public at a share price of $34 today, for a valuation of $6.4 billion.

During a recent Q&A video posted to the subreddit named after the company’s brand new New York stock exchange ticker RDDT, Huffman argued that he was totally justified in paying himself more than the CEOs of Meta, Pinterest and Snap combined.
