Dancing Naked on the Head of a Pin: The Early History of Microphotography

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2026-03-06 18:08:57

To produce microphotographs en masse, Dagron used a long wooden box that contained, at one end, a glass negative of the image to be reduced. At the other end was the reducing camera with up to twenty-five small lenses and the sensitized plate. When the end with the negative was held to a light source, the image was projected into the lenses and onto the sensitized glass plate to create multiple positive transparencies, each measuring about two millimeters square. Dagron employed the Taupenot dry

If you’re a film lover, one of the great things about old classics is that you can always find something to appreciate when you revisit them. If you’re a studio executive, one of the great things about old classics is that you own them and can milk them for every penny their worth.

A shark scientist reflects on Jaws at 50

arstechnica.com Unknown 2026-03-09 00:50:32

If you've been in the ocean, there's been a shark not that far from you, and it knew you were there, and you probably had no idea it was there and had a pleasant day in the water. The sharks that do bite people, they take a little bite and they go, what is that? And swim away. That can be real bad if it hits a major artery or if you're far from shore. Again, I don't want to minimize the real harm. But it is not a shark hunting you because it has a taste for human flesh. They don't have hands. Th

If you were hoping Apple’s iPhone 18 Pro models would shake up their physical screen sizes, you can extra-officially temper your expectations.
