- Samsung is developing consumer-grade headphones that apply electrical vestibular stimulation, demonstrated in a YouTube video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yZ_G_zbObWU), potentially enabling direct vestibular hacking for VR or motion-sickness mitigation.  
- The SRIM/SREM Monte-Carlo packages “Stopping and Range of Electrons/Ions in Matter” (http://www.srim.org/SREM.htm) were highlighted as powerful, freely-available tools for modeling particle penetration in materials—useful for radiation biology, semiconductor, and implant design.  
- A link to “Computational Scientific Discovery” (http://www.isle.org/~langley/discovery.html) was shared, pointing to an archive of AI systems that automatically formulate scientific laws and models from raw data.  
- Discussion of the now-defunct paperbot led to the observation that its backend had quietly migrated to using Sci-Hub as its primary source, while the IRC interface was valued for passive discovery of what others were reading.  
- SL4.org, the long-standing mailing list for AI risk and transhumanist discussion, was noted to have published its first formal privacy policy (http://intelligence.org/files/PrivacyandTerms-Sl4.org.pdf), signaling institutionalization of the formerly informal forum.
