Meet Rassvet, Russia’s Answer to Starlink

Meet Rassvet, Russia’s Answer to Starlink

Published by skeptic

In late March, Russian company Bureau 1440 brought into low orbit the first 16 broadband internet satellites of the new Rassvet constellation, already dubbed by observers and local media the Russian answer to SpaceX’s Starlink. It’s an ambitious global internet project that experts say could conceal much broader strategic goals, with functions including military and communications control. The launch took place on March 23 at 8:24 pm Moscow time from the military’s Plesetsk Cosmodrome using the Soyuz-2.1B launcher, and marked the first step in building an infrastructure that is expected to have at least 300 satellites by 2030. “The launch marks the transition from the experimental phase to the creation of a communication service,” Bureau 1440 announced on Telegram. “The Bureau 1440 team completed this path in 1,000 days, which is the time between the launch of the experimental satellites and the production satellites.” The goal of the project is to provide broadband internet access with speeds of up to 1 gigabit per second for each user terminal and a signal latency time of up …

Is Divorce the Answer? | Psychology Today

Published by Jenni Sidey

There may be no question more loaded in a long-term relationship than this: “Should we get a divorce?” It’s a question filled with grief, fear, and uncertainty. And even if you haven’t said it out loud, many people quietly wonder: Am I still in love?Is this fixable?Or are we just delaying the inevitable? Wherever you are in your relationship—whether things are good, strained, or in crisis—this is a moment that deserves thoughtful reflection, not rushed decisions. Because the truth is, most relationships don’t end because love disappears. They end because key areas of connection quietly break down—and stay unaddressed. The Truth About Divorce We often hear that 30 to 50 percent of marriages end in divorce. While the exact numbers vary, the broader reality is clear: Many couples struggle to sustain long-term connection. Even more telling? Second marriages fail at even higher rates. Why? Because without addressing the root issues, we tend to repeat them. So we take our baggage from marriage number one into marriage number two. The couples I work with in my …

AI agents are missing all the discussions your team is having. SageOX has an answer: agentic context infrastructure

AI agents are missing all the discussions your team is having. SageOX has an answer: agentic context infrastructure

Published by skeptic

As AI model providers increasingly move downstream, launching products and agents for specific enterprise applications and sectors like finance, one big question still remains: how will said AI agents be equipped with the proper context surrounding a task — who assigned it, which other stakeholders are involved, what data or discussions have taken place about it and how it should be done? This practice of “context engineering” remains one of the great unsolved problems of the AI era. But SageOx, a Seattle-based startup founded by the veterans who built the original AWS EC2 and EBS infrastructure, believes it has the answer: a new systems layer it calls “agentic context infrastructure.” Using a combination of small hardware recording devices and the existing applications enterprises already rely on — Slack, email, documents, files — and applying new, open-source frameworks and instructions atop it all, SageOX has developed a system by which enterprises can keep agents as “in-the-loop” and updated on the enterprise’s tasks as their human employees are, and prevent them from “drifting” off their assigned tasks …

Coughing offers only a momentary respite as your sore throat worsens throughout the day. At times like these, many of us reach for a soothing lozenge to calm the irritation and provide some relief, at least for a short while. But what about when the tickle comes back and you reach for another throat lozenge? How many cough drops is too many cough drops? And what’s the worst that can happen if you go overboard? Dr. Kait Brown, clinical managing director at America’s Poison Centers, assures that dangerous cough drop overdoses are extremely rare. But that doesn’t mean we should pop them like candy. “What we get concerned about is the menthol within the cough drops, and rarely there may be some that have benzocaine, which is a local anaesthetic,” she says. In very high doses, these ingredients can cause symptoms, including vomiting, dizziness, and even …
