I asked AI to modify mission-critical code, and what happened next haunts me

Mission-critical coding work is too risky to delegate to AI. AI is fine for new features, not core infrastructure. I woke up in a cold sweat.

Researchers Discover Another Place Where People Live Freakishly Long

gizmodo.com Margherita Bassi 2025-10-22 20:35:01

There are regions where an atypically large number of people enjoy a much longer lifespan than elsewhere on the planet. In these so-called Blue Zones—such as Ogliastra in Italy, Ikaria in Greece, Okinawa in Japan, and Martinique—the population tends to eat healthy, stay physically active, engage with a community, and live with a sense of purpose. (Why are we surprised they live longer, again?). An international team of researchers has investigated how these Blue Zone lifestyle principles apply

Whether you're chasing a weight loss goal or looking to boost endurance, there's a cardio workout that fits your mood and motivation. Not into high-impact moves?

The Sudden Surges That Forge Evolutionary Trees

news.ycombinator.com Jake Buehler 2025-10-22 21:45:37

Over the last half-billion years, squid, octopuses and their kin have evolved much like a fireworks display, with long, anticipatory pauses interspersed with intense, explosive changes. The many-armed diversity of cephalopods is the result of the evolutionary rubber hitting the road right after lineages split into new species, and precious little of their evolution has been the slow accumulation of gradual change. They aren’t alone. Sudden accelerations spring from the crooks of branches in evo

Do You Need a Satellite Messenger?

When the smartphone in your pocket is loaded with a growing arsenal of safety tools—including location tracking, fall detection, and SOS alerts—it’s very tempting to adventure off the grid without back up. But if your hikes, runs, and rides regularly take you beyond the reach of cell towers, into more extreme conditions and terrain, sticking a dedicated satellite messenger in your pack might just save your life.

Quirks of Common Lisp Types

By Colin on 2025-08-30 "But I need types," he told me. Humans have a tendency toward binary thinking (pardon the pun). If it's not A, it's B. Perhaps because Lisps have REPLs, they are often thought of from the outside as being dynamic, interpreted languages. Our years of Python have taught us that such languages don't really have strong typing - it's all a wild guess until the interpreter calls foo on a and b and we find out who everyone really is.

Millions of people worldwide have reason to be thankful that Swedish engineer Rune Elmqvist decided not to practice medicine. Although qualified as a doctor, he chose to invent medical equipment instead. In 1949, while working at Elema-Schonander (later Siemens-Elema), in Stockholm, he applied for a patent for the Mingograph, the first inkjet printer. Its movable nozzle deposited an electrostatically controlled jet of ink droplets on a spool of paper. Rune Elmqvist qualified to be a physician,
