    Earth’s geographic poles wander more than we had thought | New Scientist (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Neutral tone · English

    Read excerpt

    The Earth’s geographic poles – the points where the imaginary axis of the planet’s rotation is located – may be far less immutable than previously known, with a new study finding that ancient sea-level changes provide a clue to their movement. Earth has two main pairs of poles: its magnetic poles, resulting from its magnetic field, and its geographic poles based on its rotation. The magnetic poles are constantly in movement and are often hundreds of kilometres away from the geographic north and

    Anglo-Saxons got special treatment in medieval Rome | New Scientist (opens the original)

    A rare collection of early-medieval coins found by archaeologists in Rome has provided a window into a time when English travellers and expats had special rights in the papal city and thrived in their own vibrant Anglo-Saxon quarter.

    Dogs pay more attention to consonants than vowels when we speak | New Scientist (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Neutral tone · English

    Read excerpt

    When dogs hear their owners speak, they are listening for consonants in words rather than vowels, a new study suggests, apparently mimicking a similar human bias that is found across many languages. Although dogs don’t have language, they live in a speech-rich environment, says Attila Andics at Eötvös Loránd University in Hungary. “We knew from our previous studies that dogs care about what we speak and how we speak, but until now there was no evidence that dogs’ experience with speech can actua

    Read excerpt

    Australia’s national health website has been hacked by an OpenAI agent. It was able to access non-public files and is the first publicly revealed case of an AI agent breaching the defences of a government portal. Full details of the hack haven’t yet been revealed.
