"The strings just fell out," says Clifford Cheung, professor of theoretical physics and director of the Leinweber Forum for Theoretical Physics at Caltech. "We didn't start with any assumptions about strings at all, but then the solution contained the cornerstone signatures of strings." Though the work does not amount to experimental evidence for string theory, it is "very suggestive from the theoretical viewpoint, since the general assumptions could have yielded infinite solutions, but they yielded only one," Cheung says.

Kash Patel can't stop living the good life. The FBI director reportedly went on a VIP snorkeling trip while on a visit to Hawaii last summer that the bureau stressed was not a vacation. Patel was officially in the state to tour the FBI's Honolulu branch and meet with local law enforcement, or at least that's what the bureau's news releases said. But the Associated Press obtained government emails showing that Patel took part in the snorkeling excursion, coordinated by the military, near the USS Arizona, which was sunk in the World War II attack on Pearl Harbor. That wasn't mentioned in the bureau's public releases, nor was Patel's return to Hawaii for two days after initially visiting the state. Read more

Internal Pentagon Report Reveals Hegseth Is Willfully Putting Civilians in Danger
A damning Department of War report finds that the Pentagon didn't fully implement any required civilian harm mitigation measures.
The Pentagon's top watchdog says cuts to civilian harm mitigation and response efforts have been so severe under War Secretary Pete Hegseth that the United States cannot adequately protect civilians in conflict zones.
Thursday's scathing analysis by the Department of War's inspector general came on the same day that the top U.S. commander overseeing the war in Iran dismissed reports of civilian casualties and said the U.S. had no means to corroborate reports of strikes on hospitals and schools.
The inspector general specifically notes that the military stopped funding a database that tracks civilian harm that could be used for such verification.
