The Sagrada Família takes its final shape

Instead, he focussed on a much different project: a basilica that was to rise on the outskirts of the burgeoning city. He wasn’t the project’s original architect—a more conventional designer, Francisco de Paula del Villar, had quit after a budget dispute. Gaudí pushed the plans in a radical direction. The world, he believed, had seen enough ogival windows and flying buttresses on cathedrals. “Let us have architecture without archeology,” he proclaimed. The project eventually became Gaudí’s sole

Leatherman (vagabond)

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-09-19 05:17:03

American vagabond of unknown and disputed identity The Leatherman ( c. 1839–1889) was a vagabond famous for his handmade leather suit of clothes who traveled through the northeastern United States on a regular circuit between the Connecticut River and the Hudson River from roughly 1857 to 1889. Of unknown origin, he was thought to be French-Canadian because of his fluency in the French language, his "broken English", and the French-language prayer book found on his person after his death.

There are many problems with Mastodon, mostly due to the fact that it doesn't rely on any cryptography. Because it cannot do the multi-master approach of Nostr due to lack of cryptography, identities are assumed to be "owned" by the server, which is fully trusted by its tenants. Mastodon server owners can do all the harm centralized platforms can do to their underlings, which are completely helpless in case of misbehavior or even in the normal case where a server owner loses their server or deci

Nothing’s charging case ‘Super Mic’ is a small upgrade to earbud audio

theverge.com Dominic Preston 2025-09-22 15:47:50

The microphones in your earbuds probably suck. You know it, I know it, and apparently Nothing knows it too. Its fix? Better microphones — but in the charging case, not the buds. The Ear 3 buds feature what the company calls “Super Mic.” What that really means is a pair of microphones built into the earbuds’ case, with a button to activate those mics instead of the ones built into the buds. Nothing’s pitch is that the beamforming microphones in the case can deliver clearer audio and better nois

Classic recessive-or-dominant gene dynamics may not be so simple

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-09-22 21:52:21

In brief A new Stanford study explores how fruit fly populations maintain genetic diversity amid changing environments, which is crucial for survival against future challenges. The research provides direct evidence to support the theory of “dominance reversal” in genetics. Findings indicate that genetic variants can act as dominant or recessive based on environmental conditions – which gives the flies long-term pesticide resistance. Populations live in rapidly changing environments – droughts

The Math of Catastrophe

In the 1960s, the Soviet climatologist and mathematician Mikhail Budyko set out to investigate the potential future of a planet on the brink of nuclear Armageddon. He started by looking some 600 million years into the past. Back then, some scientists claimed, the ancient planet was an iced-over snowball. Most researchers considered that a crackpot theory. Ice over the equator? Please. But Budkyo developed a mathematical model to back it up. If sea ice had been able to expand past a critical lat

The Rise and Fall of the British Detective Novel (2010)

Between around 1910 and 1950, England was in the grip of a genteel crime wave; a seemingly endless output of murder mysteries, generally set among the upper and upper middle classes and usually solved by a brilliant amateur detective rather than by the police. They were read enthusiastically and with an insatiable appetite by British middle-class readers. The ‘golden age’ of the English detective story during this span of 40 years or so is an important and often overlooked feature of English pop

Best Robot Lawn Mowers: After Testing Mowers for Weeks I Discovered the 4 Worth Buying

Robot lawn mowers of yore started off using a boundary wire to determine where it could and could not go, and they were problematic. The boundary wire had to make a complete, unbroken circle. And if anything happened to the wire, you had problems. These days, robot mowers work via GPS, but it's GPS with a little bit extra in an RTK beacon.

Vaccine Panel Stacked by RFK Jr. Recommends Delaying MMRV Immunization

A federal vaccine advisory committee made up of members hand-picked by Health and Human Services secretary Robert F.
