Right-Wing Influencers Are Turning to Foreign Affairs

wired.com Makena Kelly 2025-10-03 15:43:28

Wearing combat helmets and protective vests, some of the US’s most popular right-wing creators toured what they called an aid distribution hub in Gaza late last month—a trip carefully funded by Israel’s foreign ministry. By way of the nonprofit Israel365, the Israeli government funneled at least $70,000 to 15 MAGA creators to bring them to Gaza’s humanitarian sites, the Western Wall, and the Golan Heights, among other areas. “It sits here to spoil and be stolen,” Xaviaer DuRousseau captioned a

AR Fluid Simulation Demo

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-10-08 06:38:53

Fluid Simulation (Demo) 2025 I wanted to see what happens when a fluid simulation collides with real objects. To test this idea I created this demo. To capture the shapes of objects, I mounted a webcam above the screen. A polarization filter blocks the image displayed on the screen, preventing a feedback loop, while still allowing the camera to see anything placed in front of it. The video feed is then aligned with the computer-generated simulation, so the fluid can react to those cutout obj

Now You Can Get Your Flu Vaccine at Home

wired.com Emily Mullin 2025-11-13 00:00:00

Instead of going to the pharmacy to get the annual flu vaccine, many people in the US will now be able to get it shipped to their door to take at home themselves. Starting today, AstraZeneca’s FluMist is available through an online pharmacy in 34 states. FluMist is not a new vaccine. It was originally approved by the Food and Drug Administration in 2003 and previously could only be administered by a health care professional. But last September, the FDA said the vaccine could be self-administere

What is Laura Loomer?

theverge.com Tina Nguyen 2025-11-26 10:51:24

For the uninitiated, watching a Jeffrey Epstein truther such as Laura Loomer have such influence over the White House’s decisions is nothing short of baffling. ABC News attributes “the ouster of at least 15 individuals from Trump’s second administration” to Loomer’s influence — partially, at least. For Washington veterans who grew up in quote-unquote normal times, it’s unprecedented. If this 32-year-old online personality with no government experience tweets her displeasure at a random official,

A rare, life-threatening complication caused by the flu seems to be surging among kids. Research out today finds that dozens of children developed influenza-associated acute necrotizing encephalopathy (ANE) over the past two years, a third of whom died as a result. Researchers at Stanford Medicine led the study, published Thursday in JAMA. Collecting reports from other doctors and hospitals across the country, they identified 41 cases of ANE since 2023, along with 11 deaths. The researchers arg

Trump Is Losing His Army of Internet Alpha Males Over the Epstein Files

“Cover-up.” That’s the word ricocheting through the manosphere, echoing across X feeds and podcast episodes after the Trump administration released the so-called Epstein files, and declared the case closed. The backlash was instant and fierce. These were Donald Trump’s most vocal defenders in the 2024 campaign: tradcons, alpha bros, influencers, and masculine revivalists who painted Trump as a bulwark against the liberal elite and the “woke” takeover of America.

The chemical secrets that help keep honey fresh for so long

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2026-01-25 14:04:41

But honey is an unusual case, and here is why. It's made by honeybees from flower nectar, and starts out as a warmish, watery, sugary fluid, the kind of thing that seems like it would be the purest bacteria bait. The bees concentrate the nectar on the way to the hive, removing some of the water, use enzymes to raise the acid content in the fluid discouraging some forms of microorganisms from growing, and break down the sugars into simpler ones, then decant the stuff into honeycomb chambers.

I Switched from Flutter and Rust to Rust and Egui

This is just a personal experience, there are no absolute truths. Like in any other blog post, a lot of the things you'll read here could be just a skill issue, or legitimate issues. It's up to you to decide. We had an app that had a nice Flutter UI that called Rust binaries. The bindings were generated using flutter_rust_bridge, which is an amazing piece of software. A lot of people have built large and complex apps using this tool. It's crazy how far it can just work, just by running: flutte
