US Inflation Prices Drive Critical Debate in 2026
Washington, February 7, 2026 — Brussels Morning Newspaper notes that economic pressure remains a dominant concern across the United States as US inflation prices continue to influence how households, businesses, and policymakers evaluate the nation’s financial trajectory. Although inflation growth has slowed compared with earlier peaks, everyday costs remain high enough to shape public sentiment and political debate. Across cities and rural communities alike, Americans describe an economy where wages struggle to keep pace with essential expenses, reinforcing concerns that stabilization has not translated into relief.

Looking For Advanced Aliens? Search For Exoplanets With Large Coal Deposits
The combustible sedimentary rock, better known as coal, was not only crucial to the onset of advanced technology here on earth, but it should also be key to the development of advanced E.T.s residing on any given exoearth. Or so say the authors of a new paper just published in the International Journal of Astrobiology. The authors argue that we needed large amounts of shallow, energy-dense coal to enable the technology necessary to first forge steel.

The center of gravity in clinical trials is shifting. Conversations that once lived in separate silos, such as vendor onboarding, randomization, and trial supply management (RTSM), are now deeply interconnected. That reality was on full display while chairing the IRT/RTSM: Navigating the Digital Neighborhood component of the Logistics and Clinical Supply Track at the SCOPE 2026 Summit, where seeing these discussions unfold side by side offered a clear view into the forces shaping the future of clinical supply.

Autoflight’s Matrix, which is a game changer in the eVTOL category of the aviation world, is the first of its kind to exceed the 5-ton class, with a maximum takeoff weight of 5,700kg (about 12,566lbs). While the plane’s wingspan of 20 meters, length of 17.1 meters, and short stature of only 3.3 meters may suggest that it is a large craft, once inside, you’ll notice that the cabin itself is surprisingly roomy with its 5.25-meter length, 1.8-meter width, and 1.85-meter height, giving you a comfortable 13.9 cubic meters in which to spread out.

Agentic AI Site ‘Moltbook’ Is Riddled With Security Risks
An experimental quasi-social-media platform for artificial intelligence (AI) agents publicly exposed the database it used to store all user secrets, personally identifying information (PII), and more. And cybersecurity experts warn that the risks inherent to the platform's design go far beyond just that. Moltbook was built to be a kind of social media site for artificial intelligence (AI) agents. The idea was that anybody can spin up their own robot, plug it into Moltbook, and watch as it talks with other people's robots.

He’s A Wrapper (Wire Wrapper, That Is)
Before PCBs, wiring electronic circuits was a major challenge in electronics production. A skilled person could make beautiful wire connections between terminal strips and components with a soldering iron, but it was labor-intensive and expensive. One answer that was very popular was wire wrapping, and shows off an old-fashioned wire wrap gun in the video below. The idea was to use a spinning tool to tightly wrap solid wire on square pins.

3D-Printed Bicycle Drivetrain Shows What Happens When You Have Gears Without a Chain
Sergii Gordieiev, the engineer behind “The Q,” is the mastermind behind some incredibly unique innovations, such as transforming regular bicycles into something entirely different. His new project involves disassembling a basic bike, removing the chain and derailleur, and replacing them with a chain composed of 3D printed gears. The end result is a stripped-down single-speeder that delivers power directly from the crank to the wheel, with no sign of chain slap or rattling worn chains.

How to Build a Production-Grade Agentic AI System with Hybrid Retrieval, Provenance-First Citations, Repair Loops, and Episodic Memory
In this tutorial, we build an ultra-advanced agentic AI workflow that behaves like a production-grade research and reasoning system rather than a single prompt call. We ingest real web sources asynchronously, split them into provenance-tracked chunks, and run hybrid retrieval using both TF-IDF (sparse) and OpenAI embeddings (dense), then fuse results for higher recall and stability. We orchestrate multiple agents, planning, synthesis, and repair, while enforcing strict guardrails so every major claim is grounded in retrieved evidence, and we persist episodic memory.

DFM and ADX Post Third Weekly Gain as UAE Markets Start Year Strong : Comments from Century Financial
The Dubai benchmark, the DFM General Index, recorded a modest 3.97% gain. Despite the global volatility, UAE markets remained resilient. The volatility is due to nomination of Kevin Warsh as a Fed governor, who is viewed as more hawkish, triggering a sell-off in US technology stocks and weighing on global markets. This highlights the diversification benefits of holding UAE equities in a portfolio.

Apple is reportedly no longer launching the planned AI feature that could “replicate” a doctor and act as a personal health coach. According to Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman, the company has been scaling back the unannounced initiative in recent weeks following a company-wide reshuffling in which Services Chief Eddy Cue took over the health division. Although Apple never officially announced the AI health coach, reports last year indicated that the company was working on a service that has since been dubbed Health+.

why touch is the next frontier in Physical AI
Physical AI has moved past proof-of-concept. Large models, better simulation, and faster hardware have pushed embodied intelligence forward—but real-world manipulation is still the limiting factor. Not perception. Not planning. Manipulation. Robots can see the world with increasing clarity, yet still struggle to interact with it reliably. The reason is simple: vision-only systems don’t experience contact. And without contact, learning stalls.

NVIDIA AI releases C-RADIOv4 vision backbone unifying SigLIP2, DINOv3, SAM3 for classification, dense prediction, segmentation workloads at scale
How do you combine SigLIP2, DINOv3, and SAM3 into a single vision backbone without sacrificing dense or segmentation performance? NVIDIA’s C-RADIOv4 is a new agglomerative vision backbone that distills three strong teacher models, SigLIP2-g-384, DINOv3-7B, and SAM3, into a single student encoder. It extends the AM-RADIO and RADIOv2.5 line, keeping similar computational cost while improving dense prediction quality, resolution robustness, and drop-in compatibility with SAM3.
