【Wouldn’t Having a Performance Engineer from Formula E Bring an Advantage?】 Sky Germany asked Toto whether Ant had an advantage because his side of the garage has a Performance Engineer with a Formula E background. Toto dismissed the idea, saying both sides have complete access to each other’s data... and tools. But while data and tools can be shared, can experience, judgment, and modeling expertise really be shared as well? That engineer is Stéphane Folio, who previously worked as a Performance Engineer in Nissan Formula E, specializing in energy management, chassis control strategy, vehicle control strategy, the Driver-in-the-Loop simulator, and vehicle dynamics. He joined Mercedes F1 in 2025—the same year as Ant. Why is Formula E experience so valuable under the 2026 regulations? Because after the first ten races, we have already seen that a significant part of a car’s performance is determined by when energy is harvested, when it is deployed, how the state of charge is managed, and how the software calculates and controls that deployment. This may also explain why the gaps between some teammates who were far apart last season have narrowed significantly this year—or even been reversed. Formula E uses a spec battery and several standardized core components, meaning teams cannot rely on hardware alone to create a major advantage. As a result, performance is heavily centered on powertrain efficiency, energy management, control strategies, and software calibration. Engineers spend years optimizing exactly how much energy to recover in each corner, how much to deploy on every straight, and how to recalculate the entire energy strategy after safety cars, slipstreaming, or changes in race position. In many ways, Formula E is a championship where performance is heavily defined by software and energy strategy—experience that overlaps remarkably well with the key technical challenges of the 2026 F1 regulations. Mercedes itself also competed as a factory team in Formula E, winning two Drivers’ Championships, one Teams’ Championship, and one Teams’ runners-up finish. So wouldn’t assigning an engineer with exactly this kind of background to Ant’s side of the garage be a resource advantage in itself? Toto says both sides can see the same data. But seeing the same data does not mean having the same people, the same experience, or the ability to reach equally fast and equally accurate conclusions. Meanwhile, in nine of the first ten races this season, GR has suffered different software or hardware-related issues.show more

That’s some quality reporting. Props Sky Germany for digging deep and not giving into the drama hype every other media outlet seems to do.

🇺🇸 🇮🇷 A power plant or a bridge for every tanker hit, that's the formula turning this into a regional energy war. Alex Christoforou breaks down how the conflict escalated into an energy war in all but name, with the Strait of Hormuz as the ultimate pressure point: "Iran understands this, and the last thing that Iran wants to have happen is a long, drawn out conflict, which is why they're going to hold on to the big leverage." Control of Hormuz is the whole game. Everything else is noise. Alex Christoforou

We continue working on implementing our Peace Formula. Today, we have another new signature under the Peace Summit communiqué – Botswana has joined – and this is important as a signal to everyone in the world that we are expanding, no matter how difficult it may be, the circle of our partners – and thus the partners of peace for Ukraine and everyone in the world who respects international law. Additionally, these days negotiations are ongoing with participants of our working groups regarding the points of the Peace Formula – negotiations about how and when we will fill the implementation of the points of the Peace Formula with the necessary substance. Our unwavering goal is to prepare a real foundation for a just end to this war already this year. And it is possible.

After a lifetime dedicated to racing, 2026 will mark my final season as a professional racing driver. Not the end of the journey, but the beginning of a new chapter. Motorsport has been my life for as long as I can remember. It gave me discipline and grit before I knew why I needed them, and purpose in moments when the road ahead was far from clear. From the suburbs of São Paulo to Monaco, racing shaped my life in ways I could never have imagined. It changed me profoundly as a driver, as a person, as a father, and as a human being. I gave everything I had to this sport, and in return, it gave me a life beyond anything I could have dreamed of. I am deeply grateful to my family, who supported me from day zero. Every sacrifice, every difficult decision, every moment away from home since I was 17 years old, every victory, and every defeat was carried together with them. Without their love, patience, and belief, none of this would have been possible. I have a wonderful wife and children who helped me make this decision. A very special thank you to Formula E, where I have spent the last fourteen years surrounded by extraordinary people—people who started writing on napkins and created an amazing championship, and whom I now consider family. Formula E is my home, and my home is Formula E. This decision comes with emotion, but also with peace. Every great race has a final lap, and I want mine to be driven with the same intensity, commitment, and love that brought me here. I will give everything in my final races in 2026. The future is bright, and I will share more news with you soon.

🏎️ | 260624 | Since yesterday, a mysterious figure has been spotted at Zhuhai. My initial assumption was that he had been behind the wheel, as he was wearing racing boots in the photos shared by YIBO OFFICIAL. However, no videos or photos showed him getting in or out of the car just yet; all footage just showed him interacting with Yibo, Rio, and the rest of the UNO Racing team. Now, after research, I can confirm that the Mercedes-AMG factory driver accompanying UNO Racing during these private test sessions is Ralf Aron. He is also using his 2023 helmet for the practice sessions. Ralf Aron is an Estonian professional racing driver and Mercedes-AMG Performance Driver with experience across single-seater, endurance, and GT3 competition. After beginning his career in karting at the age of six, he rose through the junior formula ranks, winning the 2015 Italian Formula 4 Championship before competing in the FIA Formula 3 European Championship. Following his single-seater career, Aron expanded his expertise by taking on management and technical roles with Prema Racing and Sauber Motorsport, contributing to championship-winning campaigns in Formula Regional and the European Le Mans Series. In 2023, he returned to full-time competition as a Mercedes-AMG Junior Driver, finishing runner-up in the ADAC GT Masters and competing in the GT World Challenge Europe Endurance Cup. Promoted to Mercedes-AMG Performance Driver in 2024, Aron has since competed in major international endurance events, including the Nürburgring 24 Hours, the 24 Hours of Spa, the Macau GT World Cup, and the Rolex 24 at Daytona. His current racing program includes GT World Challenge Asia, the Nürburgring 24 Hours, GT Open, and the Asian Le Mans Series, representing teams such as GetSpeed, Climax Racing, and Lone Star Racing. #WangYibo #WangYibo王一博 #王一博 #หวังอี้ป๋อ #ワンイーボー #왕이보 #85RACING #YIBO85

$🚨PHYSICS NEWS🚨: Physicists Are Now Saying Time Itself Can Be in Superposition — And It Makes Perfect Sense 🧨 According to a theoretical framework published in *Physical Review Letters* and reported in May 2026, researchers have shown that state-of-the-art trapped-ion atomic clocks can be used to observe the quantum superposition of time. By entangling the clock’s motion with its internal energy states, the system can exist in a superposition of different time flows simultaneously. This is a major step toward experimentally probing the quantum nature of time itself. This work offers the broader scientific community a new experimental frontier in quantum foundations. It challenges classical notions of time as a universal parameter and opens the door to testing how relativity and quantum mechanics intersect at the level of time itself. **Uniphics has been saying something similar for years — and it’s not mysterious or weird.** In Uniphics, time flow is not a fixed background. It is a local property determined by energy density via the Maley transform (\( t_{\rm flow} = k / E_d \)). Different regions or configurations with different energy densities experience different time flows. When a system is prepared in a quantum superposition of different energy-density states (or different spin-wave configurations that affect local energy density), it naturally exists in a superposition of different time flows. The atomic clock experiments are essentially creating superposed states where the clock experiences different local time flows at the same “global” moment. The entanglement between motion and internal energy is the mechanism that allows the superposition to be maintained and detected. Uniphics predicts this behavior because the ξM-field supports coherent spin-wave patterns that can correlate different energy-density environments. No need for wavefunction collapse, many-worlds, or other interpretive gymnastics — it is a deterministic consequence of variable time flow and spin-wave coherence. This is not an add-on to quantum mechanics. It is the natural outcome of the three pillars. The “quantum superposition of time” is just what happens when spin quanta create superposed energy-density conditions. Uniphics explains why such experiments work, what limits they will hit, and how to extend them — all without the philosophical baggage that usually accompanies quantum foundations. The mainstream community is slowly catching up to the idea that time itself can be quantum. Uniphics has had a coherent, first-principles explanation for this from the beginning. The data will continue to support it. Are physicists finally ready to accept that time flow is fundamental and variable — and that the apparent “superposition of time” is simply the result of superposed energy-density states in the ξM-field? **A Theory of Everything should be able to answer everything.** Uniphics Explained Simply PDF: Chapters 1–10 free: Grokipedia: #Uniphics #TheoryOfEverything #QuantumTime #TimeFlow #SpinWaves Grok xAI$

Jensen Huang just said this is the greatest era in history to build software. AI agents will not kill software. They will do the exact opposite: create a massive new wave of software demand. at NVIDIA GTC Taipei 2026 "Click and type. We now replace that with explaining to the AI what we want, our intent, and the AI generates the code or uses tools to produce the necessary output. This is how computers are going to work in the future. This is Agentic AI. For two years, we've been building toward this, and now it has arrived. One of the big breakthroughs, of course, is tool use. A lot of people have said, “Jensen, AI is coming. Agentic AI is coming.

What if you could visualise how electricity flows from a wind farm in Scotland to your home in London? Ok it's not quite that simple, but it got me thinking that there must be a way of visualising the complexity of the electricity transmission grid in Great Britain. This is my first attempt… What you're seeing are the real power lines and substations on the transmission grid using OpenStreetMap data. The real connections between each substation are found using PyPSA-Eur as well as calculating the "electrical distance" or impedance between each substation. This is my incredibly basic and naive way of attempting to show the "speed" at which the energy is moving through the network, where the bottlenecks are, etc. I know it's not as simple as this, but it's a first attempt so… 😉 I've also added a way to pick any substation in the network and show how electricity pulses through the rest of the network from that point. This is the magic sauce that really brings to life how much infrastructure electricity has to pass through to get from point A to point B. Of course this isn't really what happens, and there's no demand to soak up the energy. However I think it still serves as an interesting visual of how complex the network actually is and the distances involved to get energy from one side of the country to the other. What do you think? Is this worth exploring further?

Our world is vast, but we are all in it together. And this is our shared cause – peace. 🇺🇦 proposed its Peace Formula to the world. As long as invaders remain on our land, no one will sit down at the negotiating table with 🇷🇺. The colonizer must get out. And the world has enough power to force 🇷🇺 to restore peace step by step. We have developed the Peace Formula in a way that ensures each of its points is backed by United Nations 🇺🇳 resolutions. And in a way that everyone in the world can choose the track they can contribute to. From Japan to the Arab countries, from Europe to Latin America, we find support for our Formula. And we continue this work.

Lara Logan explains how Islam commands the “overthrow of the existing government” Muslims migrate to Lara Logan “Islam is not a religion. It's a civilization. This is a very significant difference because people think that under the First Amendment of The United States that the protection, the freedom of religion means that you have the freedom to use religion to enforce and advance a political ideology, even where it means the overthrow of the existing government. And that is not the case. Islam defines itself as a civilization, and religion is really part of that, but it is not the defining thing, and why does it matter so much? Well, because the civilization of Islam is governed by Sharia. And by that, I mean Sharia law. Right. And you cannot have Sharia law coexisting with the constitution and American law. Those two things are diametrically opposed in every single respect. They're not even vaguely tied to each other — This is so what we have allowed in The United States, we have allowed first amendment protection. — Islam is a political organization that uses the religion as a cover and as a front”

I got a smart meter recently and saw you can download a HDF file with the data so I had the idea of writing a script that could parse that and show the data in a useful manner. However I discovered that someone has already done this and done a really good job on it. The video explains how it works. In simple terms it uses the ESB smart meter data and shows a breakdown of how much data you are using and when and also recommends plans and estimates what each one would cost based on the data. The tool is available at easier to read on Laptop or Tablet or then your phone to Landscape.

Journalist Alex Raufoglu, Chief Washington Correspondent for the Kyiv Post asks a dead-simple, completely fair question: why are we pressuring Ukraine—the country being brutally invaded—to stop hitting Russian oil refineries, instead of putting the pressure on the actual invader? Instead of a straight answer, we get a ridiculous attempt from Marco Rubio to play the "both sides" game. It is exactly the kind of weak, spineless talk we constantly hear from Trump and his corrupt cronies who would always rather appease putin than actually stand up to him. Let's get one thing straight: putting Ukraine’s strategic strikes on Russian oil money in the same category as Russia’s barbaric, murderous bombings of Ukrainian homes, civilians, and civic infrastructure is completely outrageous. Human lives and innocent families being destroyed is not even remotely the same thing as a dip in oil profits or a headache at the gas pump. Ukraine is hitting those Russian refineries for one reason: to cut off the cash putin uses to slaughter their people, so they can defend themselves and finally stop this war. Alex Raufoglu: “Ukraine says its refinery strikes inside Russia is aimed at targeting revenues that are main income source for Russia. Why lean on the country that is being invaded and an invader?” Marco Rubio: “What is that? I'm sorry, the...” Alex Raufoglu: “The US asks Ukraine to stop targeting Russian energy, you know, sites…” Marco Rubio: “Well, there's two energy...” Alex Raufoglu: “rather than asking Russia to...” Marco Rubio: “Well, I mean, how do you know we haven't asked Russia to stop? So, so look, I mean, when you talk to energy, for the Russian side, the energy strikes they're facing are refineries and their oil and gas. For the Ukrainian side, energy means their electrical grid. And going into winter with a fear of losing the electric grid. So when you talk about energy, it means two things to different people. And what complicates it further is that energy strikes are at the core of the tactical pursuit that both sides have. The Ukrainians are inflicting pain on the Russians by hitting their energy sector, which is a revenue source. The Russian side is inflicting pain on the Ukrainian side by targeting their electric grid, especially as we head into winter. So, there's the challenge, is that both sides have identified energy as a strategic objective of their war aims. But it's having a global impact in the case of oil and gas, and it's having a very real and immediate impact on the life in Ukraine, especially these threats to it. So that's why it's not easy overnight to just say let's reach an agreement. But it's something that I think is worth investing in, trying to make that happen, because I think it would be beneficial to the world and beneficial to both countries. I think if you ask President Zelenskyy, he would argue that the ability to protect his electric grid is at the core of their interests, and we'd, you know, so that's something that we can help achieve through a deal. And obviously the Russian side is facing strikes it has not seen before deep in Russian territory and against key industries. So that's what makes making a deal on that limited basis difficult. But it also is the reason why it's so important that we try. So we'll try, and I think we're prepared to play a positive role if we can in making that come about.”

Alex Raufoglu: “Ukraine says its refinery strikes inside Russia is aimed at targeting revenues that are main income source for Russia. Why lean on the country that is being invaded and an invader?” Marco Rubio: “What is that? I'm sorry, the...” Alex Raufoglu: “The US asks Ukraine to stop targeting Russian energy, you know, sites…” Marco Rubio: “Well, there's two energy...” Alex Raufoglu: “rather than asking Russia to...” Marco Rubio: “Well, I mean, how do you know we haven't asked Russia to stop? So, so look, I mean, when you talk to energy, for the Russian side, the energy strikes they're facing are refineries and their oil and gas. For the Ukrainian side, energy means their electrical grid. And going into winter with a fear of losing the electric grid. So when you talk about energy, it means two things to different people. And what complicates it further is that energy strikes are at the core of the tactical pursuit that both sides have. The Ukrainians are inflicting pain on the Russians by hitting their energy sector, which is a revenue source. The Russian side is inflicting pain on the Ukrainian side by targeting their electric grid, especially as we head into winter. So, there's the challenge, is that both sides have identified energy as a strategic objective of their war aims. But it's having a global impact in the case of oil and gas, and it's having a very real and immediate impact on the life in Ukraine, especially these threats to it. So that's why it's not easy overnight to just say let's reach an agreement. But it's something that I think is worth investing in, trying to make that happen, because I think it would be beneficial to the world and beneficial to both countries. I think if you ask President Zelenskyy, he would argue that the ability to protect his electric grid is at the core of their interests, and we'd, you know, so that's something that we can help achieve through a deal. And obviously the Russian side is facing strikes it has not seen before deep in Russian territory and against key industries. So that's what makes making a deal on that limited basis difficult. But it also is the reason why it's so important that we try. So we'll try, and I think we're prepared to play a positive role if we can in making that come about.”

Gent in yellow, "I'm an engineer, a scientist by background, and what I really care about is energy" "And that's one of these things which I feel has been turned into a culture war" "So let me say one thing" "We know that heat pumps, insulation, EVs, etc can save half your energy usage" "It's a massive difference" "And Iran, while, and this is not just about climate change, we can use as a strategic reserve" "We can use that oil for aviation or AI data centres" "But we've got politicians here on the table today, I believe, who deny these facts" "And why should we platform you when we can save that money? The energy. The money" "And this also means that we're not paying the oil money to Russia, which uses it to strike Ukraine every day, and we pay again for defence missiles" "So it's a very serious question. And this is the science, this is the fact. You cannot say that that does not save half the energy."

#WATCH | Delhi: At the joint press conference with US Secretary of State Marco Rubio, EAM Dr S Jaishankar says, "There has been a very significant uptick in our energy imports from the United States. It's not new. It started out many, many years ago, but I think it's really picked up in the last year, and where India is concerned, this is an era of de-risking, and probably energy more than anything else requires de-risking. So, a big country, if you are to do de-risking, looks at multiple sourcing and for us, the United States has emerged as a very significant and reliable source of energy, as indeed have some other countries. The way we will deal with the current situation in Hormuz and frankly, going forward as well, is to diversify our energy sources, because that is at the heart of our energy security, and that is why we feel strongly that the energy market should not be distorted, should not be constrained. It is important to keep energy prices down for global growth..."

🗣️: we know that your williams is starting off with an overweight problem. based on your experience, do you think it's a problem they'll be able to solve, and if so, how long will it take? carlos: honestly, i think we're starting with a weight problem and a downforce problem because, ultimately, the gap between the cars in front isn't all weight; there's also a downforce gap, and we have to address both, (find out) how it is possible that williams, who had the whole of 2025 to focus on the 2026 car and with more hours in the wind tunnel, we weren't as good at developing the car as the top four teams that had less time, and that were fighting for the world championship last year. so it's a lesson for the team to see how far ahead the frontrunners are. we also have to learn to make lighter cars, but i think we've already figured that out this year *laughs*, and i think the team will already be ready to produce lighter cars next year.

The most interesting Scottish election commentary yesterday from Ailsa Henderson. Some good pointers for what the “independence majority” should do, at least in terms of tone, next: “I’m not talking about the rights and wrongs of holding a referendum or of independence, but just how people react to the issue. And we pick up in the data frustration about the way in which the constitutional issue has pushed other issues off the agenda. We absolutely see that in the data. But one thing we also see is that the Scottish electorate is much less nostalgic than the English electorate. And the same is true in Northern Ireland as well. And the thinking is that by having these important debates about our constitutional future, yes, they may well crowd out debates about how to improve education or how to improve health. But they also do shift our temporal focus from thinking about the glory days that we used to have to thinking about how can we build a different future. And regardless of what side of the constitutional debate you’re on, that shift in temporal framing does change the mindset. As a result, the Scottish electorate is also much less angry than the English electorate…”

The objection by the representative of India to Pakistan's mention of Jammu and Kashmir in the Arria Formula meeting was not surprising to us. India, as a party to the Jammu and Kashmir dispute, has actually refused to implement the Security Council resolutions on this dispute, and has even refused to cooperate with the United Nations, including the good offices of the Secretary-General, and with all those mechanisms that form part of Chapter VI. As I stated in my statement, Kashmir is an international dispute. It is on the agenda of the Security Council. It was never a part of India, and it is not, and cannot be, part of India — because this was the core question at the heart of these Security Council resolutions on Jammu and Kashmir. The purpose was to determine the status of this territory: whether it wishes to be part of India or Pakistan. That status has not yet been determined, because the resolutions have not been implemented. To assert that Kashmir is a part of India is, in fact, itself a violation of the relevant Security Council resolutions. Please watch my response below to the misleading remarks of the Indian representative

A lot of robot learning pipelines treat embodiment mismatch as a software problem. Collect data with one device, retarget the motion to another robot, and try to deal with the differences later. TwinDEX flips that idea around. This system is from a Chinese robotics company called X Square. Instead of starting with a generic data-collection device, the team co-designs a wearable three-finger end-effector and a robotic hand as two sides of the same learning system. They align the things that actually matter during manipulation: joint structure, link proportions, contact geometry, surface properties, visual appearance, sensing, and timing. That matters because dexterous manipulation is much more than matching hand poses. A few millimeters of contact error or a different force relationship can completely change how a task is executed. In the collection evaluation, TwinDEX delivered up to 5.3 times the effective throughput of on-robot teleoperation. It’s a useful reminder that scaling robot learning may not only be about bigger models and more data. Sometimes the hardware collecting the data is part of the data problem itself.

Schatz: This bill will kill 300,000 jobs in wind and solar per year. We're going to lose out on $450 billion in capital as thousands of projects go under. And because of that, we're going to generate about 500 gigawatts less energy in the next decade. The 500 gigawatts less energy in the next decade is pretty much exactly the amount of energy that we're going to need to meet rising demand. We are going to have energy shortages as a result of this legislation. Energy demand is soaring for the first time in decades, largely, not exclusively but largely because of A.I. data centers. And our best chance of meeting it in the next few years is with wind and solar, not oil and gas, even nuclear and geothermal are going to take awhile.
