Algebraic effects are not just a research concept anymore. You can use them in real software, today. Here’s why you’d want to do that, in order of importance: Effects make your code testable One of the central goals of enterprise software development. Dependency injection, mocking, architecture patterns like clean, hexagonal, DDD are all meant to tackle this. Effects solve this elegantly by separating the “what” from the “how”.

Purikura: The Japanese Grandmother of the Selfie

news.ycombinator.com Ben Leighton 2025-10-09 23:46:10

Unfortunately, as smart phone technology progressed and Japan’s demographic shifted to an elderly population, Purikura’s popularity waned. Between 2007 and 2017, annual sales fell about 30.7 billion yen. While they may have seen their golden age come and go, the booths remain popular all over Japan - and with one survey suggesting that over 90% of Japanese people have tried Purikura at least once, they don’t look like they’re going away any time soon.

Scientists Intrigued by Non-Human Skull Embedded in Cave Wall

futurism.com Unknown 2025-10-13 01:00:12

Scientists believe they're close to solving an ancient mystery involving a strange hominin skull, neither Neanderthal nor human, that was found fused to a cave wall — with a stalagmite sticking out of the top, to complete the eerie scene — in Macedonia, Greece. In a new study published in the Journal of Human Evolution, researchers from France's Institut de Paléontologie Humaine (or Human Paleontology Institute in English) claim they've been able to place an age on the "Petralona cranium," whic

Writing is a wonderful profession... in writers' dreams!

Prehistoric Skull Found Fused to Cave Wall May Have Belonged to Mysterious Ancient Hominid

gizmodo.com Margherita Bassi 2025-10-13 22:56:20

In 1960, a villager found something terrifyingly creepy in Greece’s Petralona cave—a humanoid cranium with a protrusion on its forehead, fused to the cave wall. Since then, researchers have been trying to date the strange specimen and understand how it got there, but these efforts so far have yielded only a frustratingly broad age range of between around 170,000 and 700,000 years. The skull’s ambiguous stratigraphic position is also less than helpful. So a team of researchers took a slightly di

Tesla’s ad spend on X has shrunk to almost nothing

Tesla spent $400,000 advertising on Elon Musk’s social media platform X in 2024, according to a new regulatory filing. But the automaker appears to be on track to spend just a fraction of that in 2025 as sales have struggled. In the first two months of 2025, Tesla spent $10,000 on X ads, putting it on track to spend only $60,000 annually unless it radically increases its advertising for the remainder of the year.
