Researchers have created a new class of materials called “glassy gels” that are very hard and difficult to break despite containing more than 50% liquid. Coupled with the fact that glassy gels are simple to produce, the material holds promise for a variety of applications.

Combining a deep curiosity and “recreational biology,” Stanford researchers have discovered how a simple cell produces remarkably complex behavior, all without a nervous system. It’s origami, they say.
The work could lead to ultra-efficient electronics and more.
The future of data, Edge Data Center, is equivalent to a mini data centre. Its proximity to enterprises eliminates latency and other limitations, giving access to real-time data. In this article, we will delve into its core concepts, advancements, operational challenges, and real-time applications.
