Many retirees cited health limitations or job changes as reasons for early retirement, with only a small percentage retiring later than planned.

"Unveiling the Secrets of the Universe: Data Science Revolutionizes Space Exploration"

Researchers at Johns Hopkins University have developed a data science method to match astronomical objects across different surveys, allowing for a deeper understanding of the cosmos. By assigning a "score" to pairs of observations from different surveys, the researchers were able to quickly and effectively match objects between 100 different catalogs. This method helps scientists extract more knowledge from the vast amount of data collected by telescopes, contributing to the building of theories about the universe. The team's code is publicly available, and their research was published in The Astronomical Journal.

While Microsoft may hope to gather valuable data to improve the OneDrive experience, users find these tactics suffocating and intrusive.
