The'King of American Coins' remained hidden in a late collector's archive for decades. Breakthroughs, discoveries, and DIY tips sent every weekday. One of the country's rarest coins is rarer than even expert coin collectors believed. After the surprise discovery of a long-lost 1804 dollar (aka the " King of American Coins "), the rarity's total known count now stands at 16. Regardless of its ranking, the silver coin is expected to fetch significantly more than its original worth when it hits the auction block on December 9. According to auctioneers at Stack's Bowers Galleries, the story begins with former President Andrew Jackson.

WIRED brought 10 of the most popular artificial Christmas trees into a studio and got three interior designers to pick the best through blind judging. For extra trimming, we checked in on how those trees fared once they were taken home and decorated. Shopping for an artificial Christmas tree can be overwhelming, especially when you're doing it online. You'll find yourself staring at product photos, wondering: How realistic does it look? Will it shed all over my living room? Can you see daylight through the branches? Are the branches strong enough to hold that lopsided homemade macaroni ornament you've hung on your tree since 2004? We got tired of guessing, so we did a little experiment. We brought 10 of the most popular artificial trees from three top brands (Balsam Hill, King of Christmas, and National Tree Company) and hauled them to a photo studio in Kansas.

Azalia King was the last holdout preventing the construction of a Micron megafab. Onondaga County authorities threatened to use eminent domain to take her home away by force. Azalia King moved into an upstate New York home surrounded by sprawling cattle pastures around 1965, about the time that mass production of the world's first microchips began. Now, 60 years later, the 91-year-old is on the verge of losing her home to make way for what could become the largest chipmaking complex in the US. Local authorities threatened to exercise their power of eminent domain, or taking land for public benefit, to forcibly uproot King and proceed with construction on a $100 billion campus where US tech giant Micron plans to make memory chips for use in a variety of electronics.

We now present some technical results that will be repeatedly used in the rest of the paper. A direct corollary of the Chernoff-Hoeffding bound (see, e.g. We also use the following variation of Chernoff bound for sampling without replacement. We provide the lower bound proofs for the results in Section 4. We remark that these lower bounds In particular, lower bounds for offline multi-armed bandits are often information-theoretic and does not depend on adversarial instances. By Y ao's minimax principle, it suffices to prove the lower bound for deterministic algorithms over (n 1) ( n 1) ( n 1) We remark that even with the random arrival of arms, the sample lower bound in Theorem 1 still holds.

Motivated by applications to process massive datasets, we study streaming algorithms for pure exploration in Stochastic Multi Armed Bandits (MABs).

A Swedish man discovered the 12th century buried treasure near his summer home. Breakthroughs, discoveries, and DIY tips sent every weekday. It only costs a few dollars to buy a tub of bait worms for fishing, but many people are fine with sourcing them straight from the ground. There's always a chance you may find more in the dirt than wriggling invertebrates. Take a recent example near Stockholm, Sweden: According to county officials last month, an unnamed fisherman scrounging for worms at his summer house discovered a corroded copper cauldron containing around 13 pounds of treasure from the Middle Ages.

This week, Casey Crownhart, senior reporter for energy at MIT Technology Review and Pilita Clark, FT's columnist, consider how China's rapid renewables buildout could help it leapfrog on AI progress. In the age of AI, the biggest barrier to progress isn't money but energy . That should be particularly worrying here in the US, where massive data centers are waiting to come online, and it doesn't look as if the country will build the steady power supply or infrastructure needed to serve them all. For about a decade before 2020, data centers were able to offset increased demand with efficiency improvements . Now, though, electricity demand is ticking up in the US, with billions of queries to popular AI models each day--and efficiency gains aren't keeping pace. With too little new power capacity coming online, the strain is starting to show: Electricity bills are ballooning for people who live in places where data centers place a growing load on the grid.

Jensen Huang, the head of the world's most valuable company Nvidia, says King Charles III personally handed him a copy of a speech he delivered in 2023 that included a warning about the dangers of artificial intelligence. He said, there's something I want to talk to you about. And he handed me a letter, Huang told the BBC, speaking after receiving the 2025 Queen Elizabeth Prize for Engineering in a ceremony at St James's Palace. The letter was a copy of the speech delivered by the King in 2023 at the world's first AI Summit, held at Bletchley Park . In it the monarch said that the risks of AI needed to be tackled with a sense of urgency, unity and collective strength.
