How The New York Times is (still) getting gamed by the right

theverge.com Elizabeth Lopatto 2025-08-08 23:30:00

The most recent — and perhaps most egregious — way this has surfaced is a story about New York mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani’s application to Columbia University in 2009,

Experimental retina implants give mice infrared vision

arstechnica.com Unknown 2025-09-19 20:08:21

Human vision relies on photoreceptor cells in the retina that react to visible light and trigger neurons in the optic nerve to send signals to the brain. Degradation of these photoreceptors is the leading cause of vision impairments, including blindness. However, a team of scientists at China’s Fudan University has recently built prototype retinal implants that can replace the failing photoreceptors and potentially provide infrared vision as a bonus.
