Is pasta a type of noodle? The surprisingly serious debate over two beloved carbs
Confirmed
In Short: Chinese researchers have developed perovskite solar cells that can function underwater, marking a significant advancement in marine energy technology.
In a related but separate development, trichotillomania, a disorder where individuals compulsively pull out their hair, can lead to serious complications if ingested.
Hair that ends up in the stomach can form clumps, causing significant health issues.
What's confirmed
- In a related but separate development, trichotillomania, a disorder where individuals compulsively pull out their hair, can lead to serious complications if ingested.
- Hair that ends up in the stomach can form clumps, causing significant health issues.
What's still developing
- Perovskite solar cells can be treated to operate underwater, with surprisingly good results in terms of reliability and endurance.
- Several Chinese researchers developed a new type of submerged perovskite solar cell that can operate a few meters below sea level and harvest solar energy for years while retaining high efficiency.
- If that hair gets caught in the folds of your stomach, it can accumulate into a clump that can cause some pretty serious problems.
- Longevity physician Dr Peter Attia, speaking to 60 Minutes, calls alcohol a “funny molecule”, pointing out that it is surprisingly dense in calories.
