At Summer Game Fest, I tried out one of the more stylish, relaxing games that made me wish I had pals on the couch to play with. But instead of a co-op adventure, Snap & Grab, as it's called, is a heist title where players take on the role of a fashionista photojournalist who steals gaudy treasures from rich doofuses to fill her penthouse. Snap & Grab is the debut title for studio No Goblin, which held its demo in publisher Annapurna Interactive's closed-door area at the annual gaming festival.

Continuous Glucose Monitoring

news.ycombinator.com Adam Langley 2025-10-24 18:09:30

Continuous glucose monitoring has been a thing for a while. It's a probe that sits just inside your body and measures blood glucose levels frequently. Obviously this is most useful for type 1 diabetics, who need to regulate their blood glucose manually. (At this point, I would be amiss not to give a nod to the book Systems Medicine, which I think most readers would find fascinating. I can't judge whether it's correct or not, but it is a delightful exploration of a bunch of maladies from the per

Jon Watts Left ‘Fantastic Four’ to Get His Groove Back

gizmodo.com Justin Carter 2025-10-24 16:30:24

Before Matt Shakman took over directing duties for the MCU’s first Fantastic Four movie, Jon Watts was in charge. The director of the Spider-Man: Home trilogy dropped out in 2022, and his reasons for leaving are completely valid: he had to take a much-needed break. During a recent storytelling class at the Mediterrane Film Festival, Watts revealed he was basically “out of gas” by the time he was wrapping Spider-Man: No Way Home, which was shot in the early days of the pandemic.

Evaluating Long-Context Question and Answer Systems

While evaluating Q&A systems is straightforward with short paragraphs, complexity increases as documents grow larger. For example, technical documentation, novels and movies, as well as multi-document scenarios. Although some of these evaluation challenges also appear in shorter contexts, long-context evaluation amplifies issues such as: Information overload: Irrelevant details in large documents obscure relevant facts, making it harder for retrievers and models to locate the right evidence for

A Review of Aerospike Nozzles: Current Trends in Aerospace Applications

news.ycombinator.com Cardenas 2025-10-28 09:33:10

The design of rocket nozzles aims to expand the combustion gases until the exit pressure matches the ambient pressure, thereby maximizing thrust. However, ambient pressuredecreases as the rocket ascends, posing a challenge for conventional nozzles, which operate efficiently only at a specific altitude [ 30 ]. By adjusting their flow characteristics to the varying atmospheric pressure, aerospike nozzles offer a significant advantage in this regard. To quantify this impact, the thrust coefficient
