Welcome to a new week and good bye to last week which could be described as “I don't even know what to describe it as". 😂

It has been quite eventful but not in an interesting way for people like me. I guess things happen for a reason, just have to learn from it and improve. Hopefully better days ahead.

I have come again with the usual. Yes, you are very much not wrong, our weekly digest. I promise you this is a very sumptuous one, use it drown your sorrows away - alcohol wouldn't be nice for your health, if you actually have a sorrow.


### Horses differentiate human expressions of sadness and joy

This report seems to be telling us that horses don't like bad energy/vibes and I wonder where they learnt such behaviour from.

 Wait a minute, am I bluffing ?

I think I may not but [keep reading](https://phys.org/news/2023-08-horses-differentiate-human-sadness-joy.html?utm_source=nwletter&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=daily-nwletter) to know if I am or not. I think I better go get myself a horse to help keep my mood in check.


### Dogs can detect COVID-19 infections faster and more accurately than conventional technology, research shows

Bless the day man first met dogs or vice versa. Ever since they fell in love and came together as man and pet, the journey has been filled with lots of interpersonal adventures. Despite this action filled dogmance (I just invented this word though, it's supposed to be a romance with dogs), it appears there's still more to be uncovered.........[keep reading](https://phys.org/news/2023-08-dogs-covid-infections-faster-accurately.html?utm_source=nwletter&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=daily-nwletter) for the main story. Nature telling us again that it's designs are still far superior to ours and I think I also need a dog - I also need a dogmance. 🤭


### Bots are better at CAPTCHA than humans, researchers find

Do you normally get frustrated when you try to login or sign up on a site but forced to take “CAPTCHA test" ?

Such test was placed there for some reasons but most importantly prevent hackers from gaining access to personal and important informations. The hacking is normally done with the help of malicious softwares which are machines and the test which is a Turing test  helps to distinguish machines from humans and it's intended for the machine to fail. However, it appears we the users aren't also frustrated about the test, the developers of the test are also starting to get frustrated.
Do you know why the developers are getting frustrated ?

It's because.....[keep reading](https://techxplore.com/news/2023-08-bots-captcha-humans.html?utm_source=nwletter&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=daily-nwletter). I wonder if a time would come when machines would be able to design their Turing test intended to make humans fail. 😳 End of humanity.

### Cleaning water with 'smart rust' and magnets

When iron reacts with air/water over a long period of time at normal conditions, a new compound is formed, an oxide of iron which we mostly call rust. If you drop this rust in water the water would normally get dirty and contaminated. In this report scientists have developed a way to use this rust clean a dirty water. Want to know how, then [keep reading](https://phys.org/news/2023-08-smart-rust-magnets.html?utm_source=nwletter&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=daily-nwletter) to find out and more. 


### Turns out you can transmit sound in a vacuum, just not very far

We mostly believe that sound waves travel through air which is partly because of how our ears are but the truth is that sound can travel through other mediums be it solid, liquid or gas or what ever kind of matter. For a fact, when you are submerged in a body of water like a swimming pool, you could still hear sound, implying air isn't totally necessary for sound waves to propagate. However, an exception seems to be vacuum, sound is believed not to be able to propagate through vacuum and that's why in the spacesuit of astronauts there are special systems designed to send and receive sound waves in the form of electromagnetic waves. 
In this report, scientists seem to have discovered a way to make sound waves propagate almost directly through vacuum but there's a catch, which is [keep reading](https://www.livescience.com/physics-mathematics/turns-out-you-can-transmit-sound-in-a-vacuum-just-not-very-far).


### Count Dracula Resurrected: Scientists Shed New Light on the Legendary Figure Behind the King of Vampires

We are all very familiar with vampires thanks to movies and fantasy books. Some believe they exist others don't but however, there is very popular vampire who goes by the name “Count Dracula" you must have come across the character in a lot of vampire movies, like the not too recently  released “Renfield" movie of which Nicolas cage portrayed the character. This popular vampire character (Dracula) is believed to have been inspired by a real life person who actually existed in 15th century, a very powerful prince to be precise and he seemed to have had some connections with blood.
😱

Wait, was he really a vampire ?

Hmmmmm...... I think the only way to find out is to [continue reading](https://scitechdaily.com/count-dracula-resurrected-scientists-shed-new-light-on-the-legendary-figure-behind-the-king-of-vampires/?expand_article=1). But I must warn you, prepare your mind for what you are about to find out. 😭🤭





It is here we conclude today's report, have a thoughtful day and till i come your way again next week.
