  The Physics of Stars - Exploring...

  Stars are the fundamental building blocks of the universe, shaping the evolution of galaxies and influencing cosmic phenomena on vast scales. Understanding their physics requires a detailed study of the forces governing their formation, structure, and lifecycle. Stellar physics combines principles from thermodynamics, nuclear physics, and general relativity to explain the energy production, stability, and eventual fate of stars. Observations across the electromagnetic spectrum, from radio waves to gamma rays, provide insights into stellar composition, temperature, and behavior. 
  At the heart of stellar physics is the balance between gravitational collapse and outward pressure. Gravity continuously pulls the stellar material inward, while nuclear fusion generates energy that radiates outward, maintaining equilibrium. This delicate balance determines the longevity of a star, with more massive stars consuming their fuel rapidly, while lower-mass stars burn slowly over billions of years. The life cycle of a star is deeply connected to its initial mass, which dictates its energy output, structure, and eventual transformation into a white dwarf, neutron star, or black hole. 
  Observing stars has been a cornerstone of astronomy for centuries, but modern telescopes and spectroscopy have revolutionized our understanding. Spectroscopy allows scientists to analyze starlight and determine the elements present in a star’s atmosphere. By studying absorption and emission lines, astronomers can infer a star’s composition, temperature, and motion. Advances in observational technology, such as space-based telescopes and high-resolution imaging, provide detailed views of stellar phenomena, revealing dynamic processes such as stellar flares, mass ejections, and pulsations.

  InHumana: An American Healthcare Story tells how an only child was conscripted into a war with a soulless monstrosity that repeatedly tried to throw his widowed mom's life away with the surreptitious aid of unregulated artificial intelligence. 
  Months after a stroke and two seizures robbed author Jeremy White's mom of use of her right side, a federal judge ruled her the victor of their war against Humana for wrongfully denying critically needed care. Their battle, which involved multiple hearings and appeals, is one that fewer than 10 percent of denied Medicare Advantage Plan members like her bother fighting, despite a 90 percent success rate for appeals. A Pulitzer-nominated investigation and two class-action lawsuits would eventually demystify Humana's wanton gaslighting by revealing the shocking truth behind their inhumane decisions. 
  InHumana is a timely examination of the medical-industrial complex from the belly of the beast that explores what it means to be human and eviscerates the farce of corporate personhood. White's genuine humor buoys heavy topics and hard-learned lessons about a nebulous appeals process. His epilogue—which addresses "Deny," "Defend," and "Depose—was prompted by a surge of interest in InHumana following the assassination of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson.

  As she navigates friendship, dating, and life as a queer parent in London, Hannah begins cowriting with an open-source language model, a precursor to ChatGPT, feeding the algorithm language and receiving language in return. Through her interactions with her toddler and the algorithm, expressions of humor, play, and insight begin to emerge. With the help and disruption of these unreliable narrators, Hannah deconstructs her story and constructs a new one, unraveling what she has been taught to want, finding alternative ways of thinking, loving, and parenting today.
