Scientists create universal nasal spray vaccine that protects against COVID, flu, and pneumonia
Scientists create universal nasal spray vaccine that protects against COVID, flu, and pneumoniaFor decades, scientists have chased the idea of a universal vaccine capable of protecting against virtually any infectious threat. That goal has often seemed almost mythical.Now, researchers at Stanford Medicine and their collaborators report a major step toward that vision. In a new mouse study, they developed an experimental universal vaccine that shields against a broad range of respiratory…Scientis

Christina Applegate tells Jimmy Kimmel that “It might be Covid, I’m just super duper sick and you’re gonna have it”. Kimmel responds, “I’d rather it was Covid at this point” Why? The lack of education about Covid and Long Covid has led to this. People laughing and joking about spreading a virus like Covid is an indicator that they do not fully understand the risks associated with Covid and it highlights the need for more awareness right now.And no I’m not bashing Christina or Jimmy, I am bashing

“EVERYBODY OUT THERE TONIGHT NEEDS TO ORGANIZE AND PROTECT EACH OTHER” shouts out the punk band in a tiny club with no windows, no ventilation, and far too many people, none of whom are wearing masks. right. protect each other with hopes and prayers. we’re supposed to beat ice and poverty but we can’t do the bare minimum to protect each other from an old news disease that’s still killing and injuring plenty of us. i watch friends catch it and struggle to breathe for months, but i guess they don’
Fingers, Toes, and Eyes are Crossed!
Fingers, Toes, and Eyes are Crossed!Okay. Not the eyes but I am so hopeful that my husband and I do not get Covid from our son that started with symptoms four days ago.We tested negative and I hope that does not change!Never thought I would be wearing a mask in my home but I am when my son comes down stairs. He is, too.Maybe my husband and I won’t get it!Yin Yang Flower Original acrylic painting…View On WordPress
Yatta! for 2026 02 21-24 catch-up
Yatta! for 2026 02 21-24 catch-upThese 4 days were EXCITING! </s> After we shopped the Farmers Market on Saturday, GB went to a conference, which had a strict COVID protocol of using N95 masks and testing. We didn’t have any tests at home, so he tested at the venue, and surprise! came up positive. He headed home to isolate in our downstairs floor, because if I don’t already have it, I REALLY need to not catch it. Later in the day, I do test, and it’s negative. We manage t

Angola: Reject Bill to Restrict Civil Society
A bill passed by Angola’s parliament on January 22, 2026, to regulate nongovernmental organizations would significantly expand government control over civil society and undermine fundamental freedoms.
Why Procurement Might Be The Key To Responsible AI Governance Across The Enterprise
This unique opportunity is more than just compliance or risk mitigation. It’s building a safe, durable and performant AI-powered future at enterprise scale.
From Data To AI Governance: Strategic Shifts Every Leader Must Master
Responsible AI is an investment in long-term sustainability. The absence of governance can lead to model drift, eroding customer trust and increasing risk.
Terms of use: What types of competition do model providers ban?
I thought it would be interesting to look at the terms of service of the frontier labs and there was more deviation than I expected when it comes to the issue of building competing offerings. Note that I am not a lawyer and none of this is legal advice. You should refer to the specific versions of the agreements that apply to you and consult with a lawyer.It is very common for technology companies (particularly when providing data through an API,) to include a term that more-or-less says their c
Show HN: I applied Markowitz port. theory to agent teams / proved it in a zkVM
I run multi-agent teams in high-consequence scenarios. Read: fuckups at 3 AM = I'm awake.I kept hitting the same issue. I couldn't get a rules-based system to enforce behavior and I had no real way to prove that agents really did what they said they did. I can log and monitor them - set up (a million) Slack alerts but none of these things are PROOF. Logs are mutable. And that matters more every day as agents get more powerful (take THAT, @meta)So I went down the rabbit hole.The obvious
Ask HN: Who has seen productivity increases from AI
I would love examples of positions and industries where AI has been revolutionary. I have a friend at one of the largest consulting firms who has said it'd been a game-changer in terms of processing huge amounts of documentation over a short period of time. Whether or not that gives better results is another question, but I would love to hear more stories of AI actually making things better.
Show HN: AI models debate each other on cross-domain research hypotheses
We built a research discovery pipeline that ingests papers from arXiv and Semantic Scholar, finds cross-domain connections, generates hypotheses with a multi-model ensemble, formally verifies them with Z3, then stress-tests survivors in adversarial debate.The twist: we capture and display what each model said when critiquing. No single-model black box — you see GPT-4o, Claude, Gemini, and Grok arguing for and against the same hypothesis.Example: [Distributed feedback control from microbial conso
Show HN: Content Proof — Local SHA‑256 verification for tweets
I built a small Chrome extension that creates cryptographic proof objects for tweets. It captures the tweet content, metadata, and timestamp, then generates a SHA‑256 hash. Everything is stored locally in the browser — no server, no cloud, no tracking.The goal is to preserve what a tweet actually said at a specific moment, even if it’s later edited, deleted, or disputed. Screenshots are easy to fake; deterministic data + hashing is harder to argue with.How it works• Extracts text, author, URL, t
Show HN: An Occam to Go transpiler (LLM-generated)
Occam and golang share a common ancestry for their approach to concurrency, in CSP.
So I've long wondered whether Occam could be successfully translated into golang.I began this project: https://github.com/codeassociates/occam2go
as an experiment to see if LLM coding could help test that idea.
Also, the project seemed like a worthy challenge in light of
comments I'd read around the recent Anthropic "Claude-written C compiler"
announcement.

Ask HN: Could you create a competitor to your company at 10% of the cost?
I'm trying to wrap my mind about the AI tools, and while I believe there is way too much hype, I'm quite impressed with the progress.The current mood seem to be that big companies will automate away many white collar jobs and just get bigger profits. My question is - what if it's the other way around ? Could said white collar workers just spin off competitors much more easily than before ? Obviously this mostly apply to software, but I'm curious what people think about it in
