Norway's Electric Ship  Norway Creates World’s First Autonomous Electric Cargo Ship Norway has launched the world’s first fully autonomous electric cargo ship. The vessel, named Yara Birkeland, runs entirely on battery power, with no human crew onboard. It navigates using AI, GPS, radar, and lidar, avoiding other vessels and obstacles at sea. It can carry over 100 containers while producing zero emissions. Charging stations at port allow it to recharge between trips. The ship is expected to replace thousands of truck journeys annually, cutting both traffic congestion and carbon emissions. Norway, a leader in green shipping, plans to expand autonomous electric fleets across its coastlines. Other nations are closely monitoring the project as a model for sustainable cargo transport. This represents a bold step toward cleaner oceans and smarter logistics. Muhammed Gambo

  Mark Zuckerberg  Mark Zuckerberg dropped $1 billion to solve a problem. And today that problem makes $20B a year. Rewind to 2012. Zuck spots a little photo-sharing app blowing up in the app store. It’s called Instagram. It has just 13 employees and makes no money. But it does have one thing. Photos. You see, people used to post all their photos on Facebook. And now they’re doing it on Instagram. That’s a big problem. Really big. Zuck knows he needs to move fast or this little app could take him down. So he picks up the phone and calls the founder. Then he invites him over for a chat. And cuts straight to the end. Zuckerberg offers $1 billion for the app. At the first meeting. No bankers. No board. No questions. Just 2 guys having a chat. Instagram takes the deal. And just like that, Zuck neutralizes his biggest threat.  Today Instagram pulls in $20B a year. Probably the best $1 billion ever spent.

  Norway is building the world’s first full-scale ocean tunnel that will let ships sail directly through a mountain. The tunnel will be 1.7 kilometers long and 36 meters wide, cutting through the Stad Peninsula, a dangerous area where the Norwegian Sea meets the North Sea. This region is known for rough waters, high waves, and accidents. By creating a direct and safe passage, the project will save time, reduce risks, and improve transport efficiency for both cargo and passenger ships. Norwegian authorities say construction could start soon, with the tunnel expected to handle up to 120 ships daily. Researchers highlight it as a breakthrough in maritime engineering, showing how infrastructure can adapt to extreme natural conditions. #norway #engineering #innovation #maritime #oceantunnel

 Dubai has built air conditioned bus stops to protect passengers from extreme desert heat. These enclosed bus shelters are fitted with cooling systems, seating, and ticket machines, ensuring comfort while waiting for public transport. With summer temperatures often crossing 45°C, the initiative improves safety and encourages more people to use buses. The project is part of Dubai’s wider smart city vision. By making public transport more accessible and comfortable, the city aims to reduce reliance on private cars and cut emissions. This model is now studied by other hot-climate cities looking for sustainable solutions to urban heat challenges. #dubai #innovation #publictransport #smartcity #heating

 The Palestinian armed group Hamas has said five of its members were killed in an Israeli air strike in Qatar's capital, but claimed that an attempt to assassinate its negotiating team "failed". Hamas said the negotiating team was meeting to discuss the latest US proposal for a ceasefire in the Gaza Strip at a residential compound in Doha when it was badly damaged by a series of explosions. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said the strike was "fully justified" because it targeted senior Hamas leaders who organised the 7 October 2023 attack on Israel, which triggered the Gaza war. Qatar condemned the Israeli attack, calling it "cowardly" and a "flagrant violation of international law". The Gulf state's interior ministry said one member of its Internal Security Force was killed and others were injured, without mentioning any Hamas casualties. The White House said US President Donald Trump believed the incident was "unfortunate...

 Japanese researchers have crafted a bio-gel bandage that doesn’t just cover a wound—it halts bleeding and seals it in under 15 seconds, even when the skin is wet or saturated with blood. It’s not a plaster; it’s a liquid film made from advanced hydrogel formulas that bond rapidly to tissue, offering both sealant and barrier when time is everything.   This isn’t fluff science. The gel’s roots are in clean chemistry: a low-adhesion, low-swelling alginate hydrogel derived from seaweed, blended with calcium carbonate and carbonated water. It supports healing while preventing the wound from expanding—a common issue with conventional treatments.  In essence, stitches may soon become an afterthought. This bio-gel is swift, gentle on wounds, and fundamentally designed to transform first-response care.
