C. Scott Brown / Android Authority TL;DR Samsung has confirmed to Android Authority that the Galaxy S25 FE has an optical-based fingerprint scanner.

Use singular nouns for database table names

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-10-08 12:29:05

Use singular nouns for database table names A common debate in relational database circles is whether the names of tables should be singular or plural. If you have a table that stores users, should the table be called user or users ? The arguments for plural are straightforward: The table is storing more than one user. It reads well in the FROM clause: SELECT id , name FROM users ; The arguments for singular are more subtle: Strictly speaking, we’re not naming a table, we’re naming a relati

Some Heart Attacks Might Be Triggered by Germs

gizmodo.com Ed Cara 2025-10-12 23:30:27

Germs might be even worse for us than we thought. New research suggests that certain infections could be a contributing factor to heart attacks. Scientists in Finland and the UK conducted the study, which examined arterial plaques taken from people who died from heart disease and others. They found these plaques often contained a dormant layer of bacterial biofilm; they also found evidence that bacteria released from this biofilm can then trigger heart attacks.

It is almost half a century since Voyager 1 was launched from Cape Canaveral in Florida on a mission to study Jupiter, Saturn, and the atmosphere of Titan. It continues to send data back to Earth. Although engineers reckon that the aging spacecraft might survive well into the 2030s before eventually passing out of range of the Deep Space Network, the spacecraft's cosmic ray subsystem was switched off in 2025.
