"...two big rules".
Those previous grandiose predictions were wrong. No rules are broken here.
I.e. Imagine mathematicians assert all natural numbers are odd. Then somebody observes an even number. Slashdot article consequently announces "big math rule violated".
Predictions are not science. Science is the systematic study of the structure and behavior of the physical and natural world through observation, experimentation, and the testing of theories against the evidence obtained.
Following the article's provenance leads to claims written in future tense. Give this one a pass, for now.
The referred paper is a proposed theory.
Here's another - comet tails (also?) contributed.
"10 million times larger than the sun," : Even though Space.com was quoted, it's a poor choice of words, since neither mass nor diameter is specified.
Here, in the Slashdot article, the black hole isn't identified by name. Poor writing - reads like hype.
Capitalization: "sun" should be "Sun".
The update is optional, so No, I think.
As expected.
There is no reported working model. The designed-only chip doesn't defy anything - as presented here at this time it's 100% hype.
Big, Beautiful, Bombs.
I don't see info regarding how far it flew with 1 or more passengers. I'm not impressed with pilot-only metrics.
In the beginning, authorities championed the same goals for the dawn of the Internet. Look how bad the negative uses are today.
AI will be used for much worse, because evil people never change.
"has a weight about 3,400 times the mass of the sun"
I don't believe it's reasonable to compare weight & mass. Weight depends on gravity; mass doesn't.
When the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) seizes your cash at the airport because they suspect it's related to illegal activities (like drug trafficking or money laundering), the legal action to forfeit that money is directed against the money itself. The lawsuit's title reflects this, naming the property as the defendant.
No animals are being sued in this type of case.
