An analysis of 15M+ biomedical abstracts from 2010 to 2024 finds researchers using AI to write abstracts use certain words far more often than those who don't
Large language models (LLMs) like ChatGPT can generate and revise text with human-level performance. These models come with clear limitations, can produce inaccurate information, and reinforce existing biases. Yet, many scientists use them for their scholarly writing. But how widespread is such LLM usage in the academic literature? To answer this question for the field of biomedical research, we present an unbiased, large-scale approach: We study vocabulary changes in more than 15 million biomedical abstracts from 2010 to 2024 indexed by PubMed and show how the appearance of LLMs led to an abrupt increase in the frequency of certain style words. This excess word analysis suggests that at least 13.5% of 2024 abstracts were processed with LLMs. This lower bound differed across disciplines, countries, and journals, reaching 40% for some subcorpora. We show that LLMs have had an unprecedented impact on scientific writing in biomedical research, surpassing the effect of major world events such as the COVID pandemic.

The Fediverse Passport: A needed tool.
The Fediverse Passport would be the central account for all users on the Fediverse.
How it would work
a. Upon signing up for the a platform on the Fediverse the user would be redirected to the "Create your Passport" You would create your unique username. Once signed up you would then have an account on every platform connected to the Fediverse.
b. If someone friends/follows you on one platform they would automatically follow you on all platforms. Insuring that communities and friends could stay connected across platforms.
c. The passport for the user would show your feed on all platforms and allow you to selected which platform you want to see your feed from, also allowing you to directly search your content so you could find a post for whatever reason you need.
d. For the subscriber it would show them your feed and allow them to easily find your content.
e. Tons of customization options including the ability to monetize and or set a subscription fee for the video, blogging, and other "arts" platforms.
Safe Guards
You would be allowed to set your privacy setting to, Public, Subscribers Only, Approve Subscribers, Mutual Friends only, Private (Requires link)
Benefit
Would allow stream less interaction across the whole Fediverse and really get it going. No more having to create a different account on each platform and now you can claim an identity and keep track of your communities, also each site would directly help "advertise" the others.

Un oggetto di un altro sistema solare è venuto a farci visita
È probabilmente una cometa ed è solo la terza osservazione di questo tipo di qualcosa che ha avuto origine altrove
Un oggetto interstellare, cioè proveniente da un sistema solare diverso dal nostro, si sta dirigendo a grandissima velocità verso la Terra, ma non c’è nessun pericolo di impatto con il nostro pianeta. Dalle osservazioni svolte finora sembra che sia una cometa ed è stata chiamata 3I/ATLAS: è il terzo oggetto in viaggio tra sistemi solari diversi a essere stato mai notato nelle nostre vicinanze da quando puntiamo i telescopi verso il cielo. Nei prossimi mesi sarà studiato dagli astronomi, per approfondire le nostre conoscenze su come alcuni oggetti si mettano a vagare tra diversi sistemi solari all’interno della Via Lattea, la nostra galassia.
Nel sistema solare in cui ci troviamo si stima ci siano milioni di asteroidi e comete in orbita intorno al Sole, ma è raro che siano osservati corpi celesti provenienti da altrove, sia perché sono piccoli sia perché spesso rimangono a grande distanza da noi. Un telescopio in Cile, che fa parte di ATLAS, l’iniziativa della NASA per osservare i corpi celesti e capire se alcuni potrebbero scontrarsi con la Terra, aveva osservato per la prima volta un nuovo oggetto martedì 1 luglio, e inizialmente sembrava fosse un asteroide. Successive osservazioni avevano permesso di scoprire un’orbita insolita del corpo da poco osservato, portando alla conclusione che si trattasse con molta probabilità di qualcosa proveniente da un altro sistema solare.
Spesso sono necessarie alcune settimane prima di farsi un’idea dell’orbita di un oggetto di questo tipo, ma grazie a un astrofilo – cioè un appassionato che aveva controllato alcune osservazioni svolte da ATLAS a fine giugno – è stato possibile affinare da subito i calcoli, capendo meglio la traiettoria del nuovo corpo celeste. La notizia è circolata velocemente tra gli astronomi e gli appassionati di astronomia e negli ultimi giorni le decine di osservazioni fatte con vari telescopi in giro per il mondo hanno permesso di confermare, con un buon margine di certezza, che il misterioso oggetto è una cometa: cioè un corpo fatto per lo più di ghiaccio e di alcuni frammenti rocciosi (gli asteroidi sono invece per lo più rocciosi).

It's interesting to see Apple fighting the EU's regulatory bodies while complying with everything that the Chinese government asks.

Because they know the EU won’t kick them out for petty thing like that. But it will lead to people being angry with the EU, instead of apple, which may eventually lead the EU to be more lenient with apple.
Basically they’re hijacking some of the democratic mechanisms of the EU to their advantage.
'28 Days Later' is a Hit on Pirate Sites... 23 Years Later
Post-apocalyptic horror film '28 Years Later' is doing well at the box office, with $100 million in revenue in its first two weeks. The latest installment in the horror franchise also renewed interest in the previous films, with '28 Weeks Later' showing up in various streaming charts. The original '28 Days Later' is less widely available due to licensing issues, so many have turned to pirate sites instead.

Armed Attack Against the Autonomous Purépecha Community of Cherán K’eri
Since the early morning of July 2, 2025, the community of Cherán K’eri has been under armed attack by unknown subjects seeking to enter the areas of Rancho del Pino and Cerrito del Aire. In response, our Community Round (autonomous security force established by our system of self-government) has resisted the aggression, activating the barricades to protect the population. At the moment, one person has been reported killed and another injured, both members of the Community Round. This fact fills us with indignation, sadness, and rage.This attack is not an isolated act. It is part of an escalation of violence that has intensified in the state of Michoacán, where organized crime fights over territory with total impunity, seriously affecting rural and Indigenous communities. In recent weeks, the aggressions have intensified in different regions of the state, including the Purépecha Plateau, where communities like Nahuatzen, Arantepacua, Capácuaro, and Santa Fe de la Laguna have also been the target of threats, armed incursions, and territorial dispossession.

US tries to deport stateless Palestinian woman again despite judge’s order
Ward Sakeik was detained in February on her way home from her honeymoon in the US Virgin Islands
The US government has tried for the second time to deport a stateless Palestinian woman, according to court documents – despite a judge’s order barring her removal.
Ward Sakeik, a 22-year-old newlywed, was detained in February on her way home from her honeymoon in the US Virgin Islands. Last month, the government attempted to deport her without informing her where she was being sent, according to her husband, Taahir Shaikh. An officer eventually told her that she would be sent to the Israel border – just hours before Israel launched airstrikes on Iran.
After her lawyers filed suit on her behalf, US district judge Ed Kinkeade issued an order on 22 June barring the government from deporting Sakeik or removing her from the Texas district where she is being detained while her case is decided.

USAID cuts may lead to more than 14 million deaths globally, including 4.5 million children under 5 by 2030, researchers say
- Projections by the researchers show that if USAID cuts continue, more than 14 million additional deaths could occur by 2030, including over 4.5 million among children under 5, or about 700,000 extra child deaths per year.
- The figures reflect the projected consequences of halting funding not only for health services but also for critical sectors such as nutrition, education, water and sanitation and humanitarian relief.
- The study warns that the impact of USAID cuts could extend beyond the agency’s own programs: international donors may also reduce their commitments, further weakening service delivery in countries already dependent on external support.
