During OpenAI’s GPT-5 launch event, they demoed the model’s ability to fix real bugs in production code. Live on stage. In their own repository. The kind of demo that makes CTOs reach for their credit cards and engineers nervously update their resumes. There’s just one small problem: the fix they promised to merge “right after the show” is still sitting there, unmerged, three and a half months later.

Der Friedensplan der USA für die Ukraine ist offenbar teilweise in russischer Sprache verfasst worden. Wie der britische "Guardian" berichtet, enthält das 28-Punkte-Papier mehrere Formulierungen, die im Englischen auffallend hölzern wirken, auf Russisch jedoch üblicher sind. Dazu zähle etwa die Passivkonstruktion "It is expected" – die russische Entsprechung "ozhidayetsya" sei eine gängige Ausdrucksweise.

Weitere auffällige Begriffe im Text seien laut "Guardian" "neodnosnaschnosti" (Mehrdeutigkeiten) und "zakrepit" (verankern). Der Entwurf entstand demnach während eines Treffens in Miami und wurde von Trumps Vertrautem Steve Witkoff und Putins Gesandtem Kirill Dmitriev erarbeitet. Die Ukraine und europäische Partner waren vom Entstehungsprozess ausgeschlossen.

Der Guardian zieht aus den sprachlichen Eigenheiten die Schlussfolgerung, dass der Text nicht originär auf Englisch verfasst wurde. "An mehreren Stellen würde die Sprache auf Russisch funktionieren, wirkt aber auf Englisch ausgesprochen seltsam", heißt es in der Analyse.

A NASA fleet has spotted the first magnetic switchback near Earth, a zigzag in the magnetic field at the edge of our planet’s shield. The result shows that twists once seen near the Sun also appear in our space neighborhood.

The work was led by E. O. McDougall, a physicist, at the University of New Hampshire (UNH). McDougall’s research focuses on magnetic switchbacks and reconnection in space plasmas.

BUDAPEST: A remarkably well-preserved Roman sarcophagus has been unearthed in Hungary’s capital, offering a rare window into the life of the young woman inside and the world she inhabited around 1,700 years ago.

Archaeologists with the Budapest History Museum discovered the limestone coffin during a large-scale excavation in Obuda, a northern district of the city that once formed part of Aquincum, a bustling Roman settlement on the Danube frontier.

Untouched by looters and sealed for centuries, the sarcophagus was found with its stone lid still fixed in place, secured by metal clamps and molten lead. When researchers carefully lifted the lid, they uncovered a complete skeleton surrounded by dozens of artifacts.

UNICEF says the Israelis kill two Palestinian children in Gaza every day despite the ceasefire.

About 4.5 billion years ago, the most momentous event in the history of Earth occurred: a huge celestial body called Theia collided with the young Earth. How the collision unfolded and what exactly happened afterward has not been conclusively clarified. What is certain, however, is that the size, composition, and orbit of Earth changed as a result—and that the impact marked the birth of our constant companion in space, the moon.

What kind of body was it that so dramatically altered the course of our planet's development? How big was Theia? What was it made of? And from which part of the solar system did it hurtle toward Earth?

Rome — Italians have very strict rules when it comes to making carbonara. The classic combination of Italian pasta, pork and cheese are mixed with egg yolks and pepper preferably just moments before serving to create the perfect dish.

Which is why, when jars of a pale creamy sauce labeled “carbonara” but made in Belgium using non-typical ingredients appeared in a store at the European Parliament — an institution Italy often calls on to protect its traditional foods from imitation — there was outrage.

Donald Trump a donné jusqu’au 27 novembre à Kiev pour consentir à l’accord proposé, largement favorable à la Russie. Les Européens, mis devant le fait accompli, s’efforcent de soutenir Volodymyr Zelensky et de faire des contre-propositions.

Australian actor Guy Pearce sharply criticizes Israel’s conduct in Gaza, expressing outrage over a disregard for Palestinian lives.

Your best friend Ethan had to go out of town, so you're looking after his shop for a few days.

Your job is simple: prepare shaved ice throughout the night, serve customers, and keep the shop running smoothly.

Shave the ice, pour the syrup on top, and serve it to the customer.

Last week, the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform released 20,000 documents from the estate of registered sex offender and disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein. They included thousands of emails sent between Epstein and high-profile people like Epstein confidant Ghislaine Maxwell, political strategist Steve Bannon, journalist Michael Wolff, and former US treasury secretary Larry Summers, as well as revealing text messages. Many of them allude or directly refer to president Donald Trump.

Now, you can browse all those emails just like you would on your own Gmail account.

Jmail is a website that looks very much like Gmail, except that there is a little hat hanging on the logo and that the profile picture in the top right corner is a grinning Epstein. (Click on it and it says “Hi Jeffrey!”) The inbox lets you click through thousands of emails, formatted to look exactly like a regular message would in your inbox. In the sidebar, you can sort by Inbox, Starred, and Sent. In Gmail, a lower sidebar section reads Labels and separates emails by category. In Jmail, it is a list of people who corresponded with Epstein.

The site was created by serial prankster Riley Walz and Luke Igel, cofounder of an AI video editing tool called Kino AI. Igel tells WIRED that he brought the idea to Walz—something Walz confirms—and then the two of them put the website together with Cursor in a single night. Walz revealed Jmail in an X post, writing, “We cloned Gmail, except you're logged in as Epstein and can see his emails.”

Jmail is a much more readable way to peruse the huge cache of emails released from the Epstein estate than parsing through tens of thousands of PDFs on a Google Drive. Among its useful features is that it rejiggers Gmail’s starring feature, letting users flag emails they view as important and then ranking them based on how many people do so. By default, the inbox lists the emails in the order of recency; the community starring feature is a way to surface what people see as more important emails.

“The emails were just so hard to read,” Igel says. “It felt like so much of the shock would've come if you saw actual screenshots of the actual inbox, but what you were seeing was these really low quality, poorly scanned PDFs. You have to do a few steps of imagination to remind yourself that this is indeed a real email.”

Being able to see these emails in a more familiar, readable format makes it much easier to follow threads and back-and-forths, but also reveals weird things about Epstein’s communications. Igel says there’s a noticeable increase in typos and sporadic formatting when Epstein switches from a desktop keyboard to a touchscreen device in the early 2010s.

“You can see him getting worse at typing as the years go by, as he clearly switches to an iPad,” Igel says. “You can see all this kind of boomer behavior which is very familiar behavior of less tech-savvy people.”

While others have put in real work to make the documents more accessible to the public, the usefulness of Jmail is in its simplicity—and it was about as uncomplicated to make as it is to use.

“This only took us a few hours,” Igel says. “I think other people should do similar things where you think that just a little bit of new software can make a lot of these things that are happening in the world easier to understand. You should just do it.”

In the history of studying the proliferation of humanity across the globe, there has long been one question that has stumped researchers: How did the islands of Southeast Asia (ISEA) become so well-inhabited so long ago?

It probably required technological seafaring advancements beyond what was considered likely during the Paleolithic era. But those experts may have a surprising new answer thanks to research that shows the ancient people of the Philippines and ISEA may have mastered seafaring well before anyone else.

Imagine you're in southeast Cape York Peninsula, heading north from the tiny town of Laura—population 133. You're in a dusty four-wheel drive, bumping over a rough gravel road to a remote location known only to traditional Kuku Warra custodians.

All too soon, the road becomes a station track winding through the woodland, leaving signs of civilization behind.
