The FAA said yesterday that it will stop using floppy disks as part of a long-awaited upgrade that will give air traffic controllers faster access to data needed for crucial safety alerts. The new Enterprise Information Display System (E-IDS) will be installed in 435 facilities, replacing several information display systems dating to the 1980s. FAA […]
Our findings broadly establish companion dogs as a translational model for uncovering molecular mechanisms of lifespan variation, epigenomic instability, and age-related disease. We demonstrate that shorter-lived dogs do not merely die earlier; they undergo accelerated molecular aging specific to genomic locations and structures. Thus, lifespan variation within a species is reflected not only in the […]
Gallup estimates roughly 40 million Americans are taking a GLP-1 medication. Those patients didn’t all stop. Many moved to compounded or gray-market versions, paid cash, and quietly walked out of the system that used to keep an eye on them. Insurers didn’t stop covering lab work. But when patients leave the insured pathway for their […]

The FDA has also received two reports of people who died after taking products sold as retatrutide, an experimental Eli […]
“Casual, careless use of general-purpose GenAI can threaten the very learning processes necessary for committing new ideas to memory… and also the higher-order thinking needed to deeply understand and use these ideas in novel ways,” report authors wrote. Kendeou said experts expressed extra caution when it comes to introducing AI to primary school students because […]

Thanks. Not going anywhere today. I’m glad I took the day off from work to be stuck at home. The horizontal brown thing is the top of a chair back. The piece is tall like a stool but with a padded seat for your butt and a high back for your back.
Oh, a chair. I couldn’t quite make it out. Good that you have taken the day off.
