CRISPR Offers New Hope for Treating Diabetes

news.ycombinator.com Javier Carbajal 2025-10-05 22:45:28

Crispr gene-editing technology has demonstrated its revolutionary potential in recent years: It has been used to treat rare diseases, to adapt crops to withstand the extremes of climate change, or even to change the color of a spider’s web. 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

wired.com Scott Gilbertson 2025-10-05 23:00:00

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

Generative AI is also showing promise in functions like treasury, with use cases including cash, revenue, and liquidity forecasting and management, as well as automating contracts and investment analysis.

As Apple again extends free satellite messaging, I’m doubling down on my prediction

9to5mac.com Ben Lovejoy 2025-10-06 03:21:56

Apple’s satellite messaging service was a key feature of the iPhone 14. Initially limited to providing an emergency service for those outside cellular coverage areas, it was subsequently extended to offer roadside assistance cover for mechanical problems and messaging with family and friends too. Although initially described as free for the first two years only, Apple subsequently extended free coverage – and has just done so again … As Macworld notes, here are the latest free periods: iPhone

Streaming Can’t Replace Your PC, but Nvidia’s Updated GeForce Now Comes Close

No, you shouldn't use it for multiplayer, but I still find myself gravitating to GeForce Now more than ever. The best compliment I could ever lay at the feet of any game streaming service is that I can forget I was even using it. Nvidia’s GeForce Now service, which lets players run their own game library through the cloud, is better than ever with its most recent update.

Off the grid doesn't mean out of luck. Apple's satellite service, which connects directly to an overhead satellite when there is no cellular or Wi-Fi coverage, will continue to be free for at least another year. The feature, a notable selling point for Apple's devices, allows iPhone users to text family and request emergency help when they're out of range.

Brussels faces privacy crossroads over encryption backdoors

About five years ago, I started Reshaped. I built it for myself, since I had a few projects in urgent need of a component library for both React and Figma.
