Tropical Cyclone Kirrily brings 170km/h gusts to Queensland
  • This summary sounds deranged because none of it has anything to do with the title, but that is a problem with the article itself being badly titled. It is rather about the effect of El Nino worldwide.

  • Video of ceramic storage system prototype surfaces online — 10,000TB cartridges bombarded with laser rays could become mainstream by 2030, making slow hard drives and tapes obsolete
  • Yeah it wasn't so long ago that hard drive storage was more expensive than spindles of CD-Rs and that was around the time that internet and torrenting were taking off. People used to burn CDs full of movies to share and make room to download more. In that use case a unit of 700 MB on write once read many storage was useful if cheap.

    Can light be changed into (solid) material?
  • We can extract the energy but not turn it into mass directly.

    Light energy transfers into matter by several absorption processes: photoelectric effect and inelastic scattering being the most common mechanisms.

    This happens by interaction with electrons, which can be promoted into higher bound or unbound energy states by photons.
