If you take two different medications for two different reasons, here's a sobering thought: your doctor may not fully understand what happens when they're combined, because drug interactions are incredibly hard to study. In this fascinating and accessible talk, Russ Altman shows how doctors are studying unexpected drug interactions using a surpr...
Wouldn’t you want to know if your doctor was a paid spokesman for a drug company? Or held personal beliefs incompatible with the treatment you want? Right now, in the US at least, your doctor simply doesn’t have to tell you about that. And when physician Leana Wen asked her fellow doctors to open up, the reaction she got was … unsettling.
One of the main factors of the COVID-19 pandemic ending was increased immunity through vaccinations. While that global health emergency is in the past, the coronavirus itself isn't, and people still ...

Working on pocket wise.

Hi: I built WordToTime.org, a free browser-tool that helps you convert word-counts, character-counts or page-counts into estimated time for speaking, reading, voice-over or audiobook delivery (all processed locally in your browser).Why I built it When working on talks, podcasts or video scripts, I kept asking: “How many minutes will it take to read this aloud?” Simple word-to-time tools exist but often ignore realistic pause modelling, language differences, or character/ page-based inputs.
Hi HN, I'm a Senior SDET at Plotly. My company just launched Plotly Studio, a new tool that uses AI to build data visualizations and analytics apps. My job was to answer the big question: does it actually work with real, messy data? When I first started testing it against our collection of 100+ diverse datasets, our success rate was around 30%. The problem I faced was that you can't just unit-test an AI that generates code for a desktop app. You have to test the full, end-to-end user e
I kept missing incidents until it was too late. By the time my monitoring alerted me, servers/nodes were already unrecoverable.So I built Linnix. It watches your Linux systems at the kernel level using eBPF and tries to catch problems before they cascade into outages.The idea is simple: instead of alerting you after your server runs out of memory, it notices when memory allocation patterns look weird and tells you "hey, this looks bad."It uses a local LLM to spot patterns. Not try
Hi HN,I recently updated my pytest plugin based on httpdbg to include the HTTP traces directly in the Allure reports. As with httpdbg, the idea is to have nothing more to do than to add an argument to your command line: --httpdbg-allure.For example:pytest examples/pytest_demo.py --alluredir=./allure-results --httpdbg-allureFor each test, all HTTP requests will be recorded and saved in the Allure report under a step named httpdbg.You can check the README in the repository to see how it
Disclaimer: This post was drafted with help from ChatGPT at my request.There’s a growing tension in the AI world that almost everyone can feel but very few people want to name: we’re building systems that could end up with real moral stakes, yet the institutions pushing the hardest also control the narrative about what counts as “safety,” “responsibility,” and “alignment.” The result is a strange loop where the firefighter increasingly resembles the arsonist. The same people who frame themselves
