arstechnica.com Unknown 2025-09-21 05:44:00

Earlier this year, the Environmental Protection Agency announced that it was going to reject the work it had done back in 2009, when it first determined that greenhouse gas emissions posed a threat to the US public. While it laid out a number of reasons for revisiting its earlier work, one of those focused on the science: The EPA's original decision was over 15 years old, and it claimed our understanding of climate change had itself changed since then.

Classic recessive-or-dominant gene dynamics may not be so simple

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-09-22 11:52:21

In brief A new Stanford study explores how fruit fly populations maintain genetic diversity amid changing environments, which is crucial for survival against future challenges. The research provides direct evidence to support the theory of “dominance reversal” in genetics. Findings indicate that genetic variants can act as dominant or recessive based on environmental conditions – which gives the flies long-term pesticide resistance. Populations live in rapidly changing environments – droughts
