news.ycombinator.com Lt. Col. Cindy Serrano Roberts 2025-10-28 12:21:53

“The generator is down, and we don’t have enough ice to continue icing the remains of soldiers killed in action. How much longer, ma’am?” That’s the message I received while deployed to Balad, Iraq, as an Air Force second lieutenant. I was overseeing generators in theater, and the one powering the mortuary facility had failed. The clock was ticking. I didn’t have HVAC expertise or the necessary parts.

Early blogging service Typepad is shutting down for good

Typepad, a blogging service that launched in the same year as WordPress, has announced that it's shutting down on September 30. "We have made the difficult decision to discontinue Typepad," its team said in a post. Several major publications used it as a backend for their websites in its early years, and it even released an app in 2008, but it soon fell behind WordPress in popularity. The service stopped accepting new signups sometime in 2020 but continued supporting its old customers. One user

The sun's UV rays can be harmful, not only for your skin, but also for your eyes. The World Health Organization reports that 15 million people worldwide have blindness from cataracts, and the likely cause for that for up to 10% of these people may have been exposure to ultraviolet radiation.

The personhood trap: How AI fakes human personality

Recently, a woman slowed down a line at the post office, waving her phone at the clerk. ChatGPT told her there's a "price match promise" on the USPS website. No such promise exists. But she trusted what the AI "knows" more than the postal worker—as if she'd consulted an oracle rather than a statistical text generator accommodating her wishes.
