news.ycombinator.com Javier Carbajal 2025-10-05 02:45:28

But the greatest hope is that this technology will help find a cure for a global disease, such as diabetes. A new study points in that direction. For the first time, researchers succeeded in implanting Crispr-edited pancreatic cells in a man with type 1 diab

Best Travel Cameras (2025), Tested and Reviewed

If you want a camera that has a capable zoom, shoots excellent RAW images and great 4K/30 fps video, and manages to fit in most pockets, the Sony RX100 VII is your best bet. The Zeiss Vario-Sonnar T* 24-200-mm F2.8-4.5 zoom lens allows a huge range of shots from something that's pocketable—this alone makes it a great travel camera. The 1-inch sensor produces 20.1-MP images (RAW or JPG or both) and while f/2.8 isn't the fastest aperture, it's enough to handle shooting indoors in moderate light. T

Edgar Cervantes / Android Authority AT&T takes a different approach than Verizon and T-Mobile when it comes to promotions, upgrades, and special deals. While its rivals often advertise free phones with no trade-in required, AT&T rarely offers devices entirely free up front. That can make it less appealing to switchers, but the trade-off is that existing customers typically get the same deals as new ones.
