arstechnica.com Unknown 2025-10-07 17:28:49

Earlier this week, Ars spent some time driving the new Nissan Leaf. We have to wait until Friday to tell you how that car drives, but among the changes from the previous generation are door handles that retract flush with the bodywork, for the front doors at least. Car designers love them for not ruining the lines of the door with the necessities of real life, but is the benefit from drag reduction worth the safety risk? That question is in even sharper relief this morning. Bloomberg's Dana Hul

Moderna CEO Responds to RFK Jr.’s Crusade Against the Covid-19 Vaccine

wired.com Emily Mullin 2025-10-06 23:53:01

At the WIRED Health summit on Tuesday, Moderna CEO Stéphane Bancel said the recent changes to Covid-19 vaccine policy made by Health and Human Services secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. are a “step backward.” Moderna is one of the manufacturers of mRNA-based Covid-19 vaccines, and last month the company received approval from the Food and Drug Administration for an updated version of the shot. But as part of that approval, the FDA imposed new restrictions on who can receive the vaccine. Previous

As fall approaches and COVID cases tick up, you might be thinking about getting this season's COVID-19 vaccine.

IRHash: Efficient Multi-Language Compiler Caching by IR-Level Hashing

news.ycombinator.com Tobias Landsberg 2025-10-15 03:43:01

Compilation caches (CCs) save time, energy, and money by avoiding redundant compilations. They are provided by means of compiler wrappers (Ccache, sccache, cHash) or native build system features (Bazel, Buck2). Conceptually, a CC pays off if the achieved savings by cache hits outweigh the extra costs for cache lookups. Thus, most techniques try to detect a cache hit early in the compilation process by hashing the (preprocessed/tokenized) source code, but hashing the AST has also been suggested t
