Key To Success? Minecraft Study Reveals Adaptability Beats All

A study published in Nature Communications explored human decision-making using the game Minecraft, involving 128 participants who navigated a virtual world to find hidden rewards. The research found that individuals adapt their strategies based on personal success rates; they rely on their instincts when thriving but observe and emulate successful peers when struggling. In clustered reward environments, successful players attracted followers, while in random settings, individuals distanced themselves to minimize competition. The study highlighted the importance of adaptability in decision-making and noted that participants sometimes copied others even when it was unbeneficial. The research was funded by the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research and the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft, with no reported competing interests. The paper was published on April 25, 2025.

Cinema buys heavy-duty vacuum cleaners to tidy theatres after wild Minecraft showings

A trend known as "chicken jockey" has gained popularity during screenings of A Minecraft Movie, leading to chaotic experiences in theaters, including cheering and throwing items like popcorn and toilet paper. In one incident, a real chicken was smuggled into a cinema. The disruptive nature of this trend has caused some theaters to stop screenings and involve security or law enforcement. Tahlia Gass, who attended a screening in Victoria, described the chaotic aftermath, while police were called to a cinema in New South Wales following an altercation related to the trend. A Minecraft Movie has grossed nearly half a billion dollars in its opening weekend, becoming the highest-grossing video game adaptation launch to date. The term "chicken jockey" refers to a moment in the Minecraft game where a baby zombie rides a chicken, and the movie features a scene that prompts audience excitement. The trend's rapid rise has been attributed to social media, and while it poses logistical challenges for cinemas, it has attracted younger audiences. The trend began with the movie's premiere in early April and has drawn comparisons to cult classics known for audience participation.

Bill Gates Has Published the Original Microsoft Source Code

Bill Gates shared the original source code that founded Microsoft on his Gates Notes blog to commemorate the company's 50th anniversary. This code was inspired by a January 1975 issue of Popular Electronics featuring the Altair 8800, which led Gates and Paul Allen to create a version of the BASIC programming language for it. After two months of coding, they successfully presented the software to MITS, leading to the birth of their company, initially named Micro-Soft. The legacy of this endeavor is now available for download. In related news, Melinda French Gates is releasing a book titled The Next Day on April 15, where she discusses her emotional struggles leading up to her divorce from Bill Gates, including his admission of infidelity and his associations with Jeffrey Epstein.
