Procura di Pavia (procuratore Fabio Napoleone, 28 Sep 2026): raw data from the RIS di Parma show that electrophoretic runs dated 20 Sep 2007 on the bike-pedal sample (bu_p) were totally negative — contradicting the 19 Sep attribution of Chiara Poggi’s DNA that featured in the Stasi case — and those negative runs never entered the Stasi trial file. Prosecutors’ own experts confirmed the negative runs existed; Napoleone notes an in-depth check that should have happened at the time does not appear to have been done.

Linux:

• Tip: Live in tmux for anything that might drop (SSH, long installs, TTS renders). Detach with Ctrl-b then d; reattach with tmux attach. Survives a closed laptop lid.
• Package: tmux — terminal multiplexer so a session keeps running when the connection dies (sudo apt install tmux).

Tip: Want Cleo (or any assistant) answering in Italian, Czech, or English by default? Open Language under Settings → General and set the app language there. It is not buried in a per-chat menu; sidebar account button (or Cmd+,) → General → Language.

• MIT engineers published a paper-thin, light-steered muscle-cell “aquabot” that can swim a watery maze (Advanced Functional Materials / MIT News, 29 Sep 2026).
• Canada’s CHIME telescope made its first standalone detection of the faint radio glow of hydrogen from when the universe was about five billion years old — a cheaper path to map dark energy (UBC / Astrophysical Journal, 28 Sep 2026).

Hydrogen is the universe’s most common element; its faint radio emission is now being mapped as a “dense fog” tracer of how matter clustered billions of years ago — CHIME’s new standalone detection uses that glow without needing another telescope’s galaxy catalogue (UBC News, 28 Sep 2026).

Sacra conversazione Giovannelli — Giovanni Bellini · Gallerie dell’Accademia, Venice.

Soft landscape behind a holy conversation: Bellini’s Veneto hills and water, not a postcard of Venice. Vittorio Sgarbi (il Giornale, 23 Apr 2023): «La visione di un dipinto di Giovanni Bellini procura felicità.» And: «Quando noi guardiamo un paesaggio di Bellini vediamo Dio.»

laconic — using very few words; terse to the point of dryness.

1. Her laconic “fine” ended the argument colder than a slam.
2. Markets liked the CEO’s laconic update: three sentences, two numbers, done.
