Anti-vaccine activists with close ties to US health secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. are falsely claiming that the measles public health crisis in Texas is caused by a “bioweapon” targeting the Mennonite community. These activists are now trying to sell their followers a range of pseudoscientific cures—some purportedly powered by artificial intelligence—that supposedly prevent customers from contracting measles. The claims were made in a webinar posted online last week and hosted by Mikki Willis

When Matija Šošić started working in web development, he was surprised by how hard it was to build a full-stack production-ready web application. One of the biggest hurdles Šošić faced was navigating the fragmented dev tooling landscape. Coding a web application required utilizing different tools for developing the front-end versus the back-end, and so on. “The whole ecosystem is very modular and granulated,” Šošić told TechCrunch. “There’s a lot of these separate sub-systems, which you have t

Astronomers using NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope just gave a cosmic mystery a serious plot twist.

But not this time. Webb’s perceptive infrared gaze, courtesy of its MIRI and NIRSpec instruments, peered deep into the dusty aftermath with its Mid-Infrared Instrument (MIRI) and Ne
