Troubling Case Links Vaping to Aggressive Lung Cancer

gizmodo.com Ed Cara 2026-03-09 20:20:47

Vaping might be safer than cigarette smoking, but they carry their own health risks. A New Jersey man’s electronic cigarette habit likely contributed to his fast-spreading, fatal lung cancer, his doctors say. Doctors at the AtlantiCare Regional Medical Center in Atlantic City detailed the tragic death this month in the American Journal of Case Reports. The 51-year-old former smoker and longtime vaper developed an aggressive lung cancer that killed him just months after diagnosis. Though a causa

What's a computer? It's whatever helps me get my work done. I love new ideas for what computers can be, but traditional work tools still win out. For my job, it's generally a PC or Mac. When I travel, an iPad is often convenient, but it's not the same, so I often bring both. The "why not both" approach is exactly what Apple has been pitching with iPads and Macs for years, but Apple has also been adamant that these platforms will never merge.

Compiling LLMs into a MegaKernel: A path to low-latency inference

news.ycombinator.com Zhihao Jia 2026-03-11 03:20:54

One of the most effective ways to reduce latency in LLM inference is to fuse all computation and communication into a single megakernel — also known as a persistent kernel. In this design, the system launches just one GPU kernel to execute the entire model — from layer-by-layer computation to inter-GPU communication — without interruption. This approach offers several key performance advantages: Eliminates kernel launch overhead, even in multi-GPU settings, by avoiding repeated kernel invocatio
