Well, slap my wallet and call me volatile-Steak ‘n Shake announced on January 16, 2026, that it’s doubled down on its Bitcoin obsession, adding a cool $10 million to its Strategic Bitcoin Reserve (SBR). Apparently, accepting Bitcoin payments has been the secret sauce to their same-store sales surge, which is either genius or the financial equivalent of putting ketchup on a filet mignon. 🍔💸
It transpired that, despite this vexing oversight, the occurrence did not come to light until a subsequent month:
in November, the disconcerting truth was unveiled. The matter, preserving our most conscientious hopes, was
forthwith communicated to the vigilant stewards of regulations at the commencement of the year past. 📜📢
Naturally, Bitcoin’s aspirations towards the hundred thousand mark (how terribly vulgar!) give the little altcoins a bit of room to breathe and, presumably, inflate their own self-importance.
Greenland is in the middle of a tariff war involving the U.S. and some countries from the European Union (EU) and the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO). 🧊🌍
Naturally, we, being professionals (of a sort), decided to ask several Artificial Intelligences what’s next. Because clearly, they have it all figured out. Humans? Forget about it. We’re just here to report on what disembodied algorithms tell us.
![The reduction in overlap between density distributions of original and Safety-Awareness Enhanced [latex]\mathcal{L}_{disc}[/latex] on both benign and harmful samples-achieved through in-decoding probing-indicates the method effectively isolates signals indicative of harmful content, suggesting a robust mechanism for discerning potentially dangerous inputs.](https://arxiv.org/html/2601.10543v1/x6.png)
Researchers have developed a novel technique to bolster the defenses of large language models against adversarial prompts designed to bypass safety protocols.
Neil deGrasse Tyson, like Brian Cox and Carl Sagan, has become a popular science communicator, earning the admiration of many. He enjoys breaking down the wonders of the universe for everyone, and often applies his knowledge of astrophysics to analyze science fiction films. From classics like 2001: A Space Odyssey to more recent hits like Gravity, he points out what these movies get right – and wrong. He particularly recommends a science fiction film from New Zealand that tackles the familiar idea of a lone survivor, and it’s definitely worth checking out.
As reported by the Voice of Nigeria, a herald of the land, the SEC has donned its armor, vowing to protect the innocent and bring transparency to the crypto colosseum.

As a huge Star Trek fan, I was so excited to see Captain Janeway’s legacy continuing in Star Trek: Starfleet Academy! It’s amazing to think her influence is still felt 800 years after the events of Voyager. The new series, brought to us by Alex Kurtzman and creator Gaia Violo, kicks off with an episode called “Kids These Days” and brings Starfleet Academy back to its original home in San Francisco. I can’t wait to see what adventures await the new cadets!
