The ChompSaw: A benchtop power tool that's safe for kids to use

Of all freestanding power tools, perhaps the jigsaw or scrollsaw would be the most fun for kids to use, as they allow freeform cuts. They're also pretty darn dangerous, with the jigsaw being powerful enough to remove fingers. A much safer way to introduce kids to power tools is this ChompSaw, developed by product designers Kausi Raman and Max Liechty.

Jabra Enhance Select 50R Review: Palatable Price

Despite the rise of competition in the over-the-counter hearing aid space, quality hearing aids remain stubbornly expensive. Top producers aren’t budging their premium prices, but they've quietly been introducing cheaper alternatives for consumers on a budget. Case in point is Jabra's Enhance Select 50R, the company’s entry-level model. At first glance, the behind-the-ear 50R looks almost identical to Jabra’s other hearing aids, like the Enhance Select 300, but a closer examination reveals a fe

Earth gets pelted by meteors all the time, but only a few showers are large enough to warrant names. Bootids is one such meteor shower, and it generally occurs in June every year as the Earth moves through the tail of the 7P/Pons-Winnecke comet. For 2025, the best night to catch a potential glimpse of Bootids is this Friday, June 27. It isn't an easy meteor shower to spot.

The first non-opoid painkiller

news.ycombinator.com Michelle Ma 2025-10-02 12:16:53

In the nineteenth century, the invention of anesthesia was considered a gift from God. But post-operative pain relief has continued to rely on opioids, derivatives of opium, the addictive substance employed since ancient times. Although no other drug has managed to match the rapid, potent, and broadly effective relief delivered by opioids, their side effects have led to decades of addiction and overdose, leaving researchers keen to find a better solution. This all changed in January 2025, when

In fact, some even predicted that the X half would sell out quickly.
