Naman Pal on Instagram: "The Josephus Problem is one of the most fascinating puzzles in math & computer science. 🌀 Imagine this: 100 people stand in a circle. Starting from person 1, each person eliminates the one next to them. This continues round and round… until only one survivor is left. 😨 Now here’s the mind-blowing part → Instead of simulating the whole process, math gives us a direct formula to find the last survivor. For k = 2 (kill next person): 1. Write the number of people in binary

Rowan Cheung on Instagram: "Researchers at Hokkaido University developed ultra-strong underwater adhesives by combining insights from nature with artificial intelligence. The team analyzed over 24,000 adhesive proteins from marine organisms like mussels and barnacles, identifying common molecular patterns that enable wet adhesion. They synthesized 180 hydrogels based on these patterns, then used machine learning to optimize the formulations. After three AI-guided rounds of predictions and testin
