Welcome back and thank you for being here. Today I have links about glow in the dark wood, how much Google’s AI learns from your photos, diamond batteries, wayfinding in space, and when the first ice free day might happen in the Arctic. If you like spiders, there’s a link describing how the sling webs like Spiderman to capture prey. And how the company that uses your personal data to get through the airport quickly plans to manage your identity in everyday life.
