How to slow down a program and why it can be useful

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-10-22 22:38:35

Most research on programming language performance asks a variation of a single question: how can we make some specific program faster? Sometimes we may even investigate how we can use less memory. This means a lot of research focuses solely on reducing the amount of resources needed to achieve some computational goal. So, why on earth might we be interested in slowing down programs then?

Oura rolls out new features for pregnancy and perimenopause

engadget.com Unknown 2025-11-20 17:00:00

One downside to a fitness trackers is that they’re rarely able to understand the context in which their users live. It’s an issue Oura is looking to remedy by launching two sets of features intended to help people during pregnancy and when they reach perimenopause. Given both processes are liable to take a toll, causing physical, mental and emotional changes, having a smart ring that understands what’s going on is vital. For the former, the Oura app will now monitor your biometrics throughout p

You Don’t Want to Know Where Scientists Just Found 27 Million Tons of Plastic

gizmodo.com Margherita Bassi 2025-12-31 03:55:20

Despite the hundreds of millions of metric tons of plastic floating in our oceans—not to mention the microplastics in our saliva, blood, breast milk, and semen—researchers have been unable to account for all the plastic ever produced. A new study has just tracked down a large portion of it. Researchers from the Royal Netherlands Institute for Sea Research (NIOZ) and Utrecht University claim to be the first to provide a real estimate of ocean-polluting nanoplastics. Their research indicates that

The Next Acetaminophen Tablet You Take Could Be Made From PET

wired.com Fernanda González 2026-02-15 17:53:19

Researchers at the University of Edinburgh have succeeded in transforming certain plastic waste into acetaminophen using the natural properties of the common bacterium Escherichia coli (E. coli). This breakthrough represents a milestone with the potential to drive more sustainable methods of drug production and, at the same time, contribute to the reduction of plastic pollution globally. The study, led by Stephen Wallace, revealed that E. coli cells contain phosphate, an organic compound capabl

Cancer-targeting nanoparticles are moving closer to human trials

technologyreview.com Anne Trafton 2026-02-22 08:00:00

In the original production technique, layers with different properties can be laid down by alternately exposing a particle to positively and negatively charged polymers, with extensive purification to remove excess polymer after each application. Each layer can carry therapeutics as well as molecules that help the particles find and enter cancer cells. But the process is time-consuming and would be difficult to scale up. In the new work, the researchers used a microfluidic mixing device that al
