Troubling Case Links Vaping to Aggressive Lung Cancer

gizmodo.com Ed Cara 2026-03-09 10:20:47

Vaping might be safer than cigarette smoking, but they carry their own health risks. A New Jersey man’s electronic cigarette habit likely contributed to his fast-spreading, fatal lung cancer, his doctors say. Doctors at the AtlantiCare Regional Medical Center in Atlantic City detailed the tragic death this month in the American Journal of Case Reports. The 51-year-old former smoker and longtime vaper developed an aggressive lung cancer that killed him just months after diagnosis. Though a causa

For the athlete, the pitch deck consists of video and some metrics, posted on Twitter (the LinkedIn of college baseball).

Open source can't coordinate

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2026-03-10 03:06:12

Open Source Can’t Coordinate I was taking a shower this morning, and was pondering yesterday’s problem, where I suspect that I have an outdated version of hotspot Linux profiler, but I can’t just go and download a fresh release from GitHub, because hotspot is a KDE app, and I use NixOS. And NixOS isn’t a problem — it’s a solution. Linux on desktop is a rickety tower of competing libraries, protocols and standards, which is always in an Escheresque sort of perpetual motion, taking off but simul

The pleasure of transforming sand to water in Sword of the Sea | Matt Nava interview

From the first moment I played Sword of the Sea at the Summer Game Fest Play Days, I knew that it was like the game Journey, which led down from that wonderful game created years ago to the moment when I was playing the latest game from Matt Nava’s game studio, Giant Squid. I played the beginning of the game. You start out as a nameless character in the sand. You start surfing through the sand, sort of like a snowboarder in SSX. Except you’re not riding on a snowboard.

As protestors faced off against ICE agents and law enforcement in Los Angeles, game developers gathered just a few miles away for Summer Game Fest.
