Morning after: Japan broke the internet speed record

Scientists at the National Institute of Japanese Information and Communication Technology (NICT) have destroyed the internet transfer record by moving data on 319Tbps, almost double the last speed test tried in August 2020. At that speed, you can download more than 7,000 high definition films for a while.

This involves discussing each part of the pipe, increasing the optical fiber line with four cores on the usual single core in typical lines, while the laser is strengthened at the source. It also does not take pictures under the ocean or anything: scientists who use a circular cable to simulate a distance of 1,864 miles.

As you would expect on the spearhead of high-speed internet, increasing this ability can be very expensive – even though the four core optical fiber cables must work with existing infrastructure.

I’m not sure which is the most important story of the weekend for me: extraordinary internet speed or ‘meat-free chicken nugget. Plant-based chicken nuggets that are impossible to come this fall. As launched after his past, startup plans to sell food to the restaurant first, with the availability of supermarkets to take part in later.

What is famous here is the absence of heme, the molecule that the company said is what makes “meat like meat,” in the nugget. Because it is impossible to make heme with genetically engineered yeast, which has stopped the company to sell burgers and sausages in China and throughout Europe. Chicken does not need the taste offered by Heme, so instead of the company leaning to soy protein and sunflower oil which is usually found in other non-meat nuggets.
