Blue light filters don’t work
- Blue light filters and "blue-blocker" lenses are largely ineffective for reducing digital eye strain or significantly improving sleep quality.
- Most digital screens emit less than 0.4% of the blue light levels found in natural daylight, making the "hazard" from screens negligible compared to outdoor exposure.
- Clear blue-blocking lenses typically only filter about 10–25% of blue light; for a filter to be clinically significant, it would require a heavy amber tint that noticeably alters color perception.
- Digital eye strain is more likely caused by the way we use screens—such as reduced blinking and prolonged focus—rather than the blue light itself.
- While blue light suppresses melatonin, the total brightness (luminance) of a device and the engaging nature of the content are more significant factors in sleep disruption than the specific color spectrum.
- Experts recommend better screen habits, such as the 20-20-20 rule and matching monitor brightness to room lighting, as more effective solutions than specialized eyewear.
Hacker News Discussion
- Anecdotal Success vs. Scientific Rigor: Many commenters shared personal success stories, claiming immediate relief from eye strain when using software like Flux or physical filters, often dismissing the article's skepticism as "vibes-based" rather than considering the users' subjective comfort.
- Mechanism of Action: A major point of debate was whether the perceived benefits are actually due to blue light reduction or a secondary effect of reducing total screen luminance.
- Placebo Effect: Some users argued that even if the benefits are a placebo, the subjective improvement in comfort and sleep makes the tools worthwhile for the individual.
- Critique of the Article: Critics argued the blog post relied too heavily on theoretical mechanisms rather than high-quality clinical trials, noting that "absence of evidence is not evidence of absence."
- Alternative Solutions: Discussion participants recommended lowering monitor brightness to match a piece of white paper held next to the screen and using bias lighting to reduce contrast strain.

All humans emit subtle light until they die, study suggests
- All living things, including humans, emit ultraweak photon emission (UPE), a faint glow produced by metabolism until death.
- UPE results from reactive oxygen species (ROS) created during cellular processes, especially under oxidative stress from aging or illness, causing molecules to release excess energy as light.
- This light is 1,000 to 1,000,000 times dimmer than what the human eye can detect, invisible even in complete darkness.
- Experiments on live vs. dead mice and damaged vs. undamaged leaves showed higher UPE in living or stressed organisms, ceasing after death due to halted metabolism.
- UPE offers potential non-invasive applications like monitoring tissue health for transplants, crop stress, or forest conditions.
- Scientists speculate UPE might have a biological purpose beyond being a metabolic byproduct, though this remains uncertain.

A new type of science communicator has recently arisen - one that preys on and misleads scientifically curious audiences. We will identify and expose these influencers and their manipulative and corrosive rhetoric. These communicators are a product of the toxic waste of contemporary politics and broken online incentives leaking into science and are aligned - intentionally or unintentionally - with political projects that seek to undermine science. They are the science populists.

At the beginning of the 20th century most of the people would use petrol petroleum lamps to produce light kerosene lamps and of course then came electrification and electricity made kerosene lamps obsolid. Nevertheless, during the 20th century, we are burning more and more oil to produce light. And today, just the the headlights of the automobiles burn more oil than the whole economy, the whole world economy did in the early 20th century

I speak from my experience on Olympia typewriters, and my engineers degree says the same: The most inner portion is not intended to recurve. Main springs wind in one direction, all the way. In this status, it's not usable. But fear not, you can rescue it. I rescued a main spring that had the inner connector broken off. Main springs (like all springs) tend to be very tough steel. You can simply break the faulty portion off. Then, you clamp the new end in grip pliers that double as a grip and a heat sink. A vice will do the same, but will be very finicky with the narrow curvature of the spring. Let that piece of the spring that you intend to bend into your new connector peek out of the pliers. Get a blow torch and heat that tiny piece to a bright red glow, then bend it one-third of the intended bend. Heat again, bend again, and once again. And now comes the most important part, the annealing: Take the spring out of the heat sink. Carefully apply heat to the new connector and the first tiny piece of the spring with your blow torch. You want to warm the connector, the bend and approximately 5mm or ¼ inch of the untouched spring. Don't allow it to glow. It may only make slight orange traces in the flame, but no more. Pull the flame away slowly, don't let it crash cool, don't blow on it, don't put it in water. Don't burn your fingers in the process. Your main spring is shorter now, but it will work just fine. Welcome to the world of typewriter blacksmiths.

Santilli claims to have detected "at least twotypes" of "Invisible Terrestrial Entities" (ITEs): dark,which leave a dark image on a bright background of adigital camera attached to the telescope, and brightITEs that do the opposite.
Santilli's unusual claims on detecting invisible alien entities and covert surveillance is highly speculative. His works are consider pseudoscience in many cases and he believes there is a Jewish scientific cabal of corruption suppressing his work.

By storing their essential data in photons, lifecould be equipped with a distributed and delocalisedsystem of vital self-support, and their consciousnesswould no longer be local. And it could go further,manipulating new photons emitted by stars to dictatehow they interact with matter, and we have already seenthat stars could be conscious beings. The fronts ofelectromagnetic radiation could be arriving through thecosmos to set in motion chains of interstellar orplanetary chemistry, generating energies of excitationin atoms and molecules. This is a way in which lifecould disappear from ordinary physics, and embeditself in exotic matter, to live forever... In other words,part of the fabric of the universe could be a product ofintelligence or maybe even of the life itself.
Authors consider non-local, distributed consciousness through photons and matter interactions (aka exotic matter) based on Caleb Scharf's works. Caleb Scharf is an astrophysicist, the Director of Astrobiology at Columbia University in New York, and a founder of yhousenyc.org, an institute that studies human and machine consciousness.

In seinem Vortrag stellte BJÖRN SIEGEL (Hamburg) die Geschichte, technische Entwicklung und methodische Anwendung von Podcasts vor und zeigte, wie das Medium genutzt werden kann, um dem Vermittlungsauftrag der akademischen Forschung auf innovative Weise nachzukommen. Am Beispiel des 2020 gestarteten Podcasts „Jüdische Geschichte Kompakt“ – einer Kooperation des Instituts für die Geschichte der deutschen Juden (Hamburg) und des Moses Mendelssohn Zentrums für Europäisch-Jüdische Studien (Potsdam) – verdeutlichte er die Möglichkeiten, neue Zugänge zur jüdischen Geschichte zu schaffen. Er betonte den hohen Aufwand in Konzeption, Technik und digitaler Vernetzung sowie die Bedeutung der Gesprächsqualität.
Podcasts in Academia still a bit challenging because of the resources needed.

Despite humanity’s ever-expanding knowledge about our physical world, there remains a gap in our understanding when it comes to consciousness. How does it arise from a physical system? Is it limited to our brain? How do I explain my experiences, from aha! to awe, that I know to be true, yet don’t fit any current scientific explanation? Have you ever had a hunch, intuition, or gut feeling that seemed to come out of nowhere? How about an insight on a project you’ve been hard at work on that suddenly comes to you in a dream? Or you’ve thought of a dear friend or loved one, and they instantly called or texted? While it may be easy to chalk up these occurrences to mere coincidence, the greatest thinkers, scientists, philosophers, and artists report that such noetic experiences have been central to their process as well as their great works of art and scientific and cultural breakthroughs.

His main hypothesis, that bioelectric gradients serve as prepatterns guiding morphogenesis, has been confirmed using modern molecular physiology, as have his ideas about the place of cancer and the nervous system in the question of biological organization. With limited technology but deep insight, he derived insights that anticipated many modern discoveries. Even more importantly, Burr’s view of bioelectricity as a convenient entry point for rigorous investigation of the broader question of self-organizing properties of life highlights a frontier of inquiry that awaits today’s researchers.
A lot of bright minds have been silenced by established authorities, particularly in medicine, where people's life are at stake, hence professor acquire semi-god powers.

Am 14.05.2025 zeigte eine französische Studie mit 15.000 Teilnehmern, dass Männer 26 % mehr Treibhausgase ausstoßen als Frauen, hauptsächlich durch höheren Fleischkonsum und Autonutzung. Nach Kontrolle sozioökonomischer Faktoren beträgt der Unterschied 18 %. Der Konsum von rotem Fleisch und das Autofahren erklären fast den gesamten verbleibenden Unterschied von 6,5-9,5 %. Traditionelle Geschlechternormen, die Männlichkeit mit Fleischkonsum und Autofahren verbinden, spielen eine bedeutende Rolle. Frauen zeigen mehr Besorgnis über die Klimakrise, was zu klimafreundlicherem Verhalten führen könnte.

the proposed version of the pilot wave theory, the particle is guided bya combination of advanced and retarded waves.
Pilos-wave theory feels like a lost opportunity, when watching those videos with droplets on vibrating liquids (veritasium, worst example).
Along with the entaglement of quantum vacuum to bind gravity to entropy.

Hajo Bakker Exam vs. Test -- Een examinering moet veel vanafwegen en niet regulier gebeuren.
Een test (toets) mag vaker gebeuren, en moet weinig vanaf hangen... Geen ouders die straffen voor een laag cijfer (of cijfers afschaffen), geen adviezen die daarvanafhangen, etc.
Het doel van een toets is om je aan te geven wat je krachten en minder sterke punten zijn, dus waar je je op moet focussen met toekomst leren. Dit kan alleen op het moment dat je een toets nabespreekt en op individueel niveau. Klassikaal bespreken heeft vaak weinig nut.
Daarbij komt ook dat een student moet snappen WAAROM het helpt om na te bespreken, de wetenschap erachter. Op het moment dat je de waarom achter het hoe niet goed snapt heeft het hoe minder effect. (dit is waarom in het 4C/ID model ze in een scaffold beginnen met de laatste stap, waarin de informatie van voorgaande stappen is gegeven. Dit zodat als je de vorige stap gaat leren, je een beter idee hebt waar het uiteindelijk voor gebruikt gaat worden en je er dus een betere invulling aan kan geven.)
Semantische verschillen zijn vaak uiterst nuttig om complexe stof te begrijpen. Op het moment dat ze exact hetzelfde waren heeft het weinig nut om meerdere termen te hebben en zouden ze synoniem zijn.
"Exam" is geen synoniem van "test".
Genuanceerde verschillen zijn vaak nuttiger dan "umbrella terms" om goed te communiceren, als uiterst subliem wordt beargumenteerd in "Science of Memory: Concepts" van Roediger III et al.
Daarnaast komt uiteraard bij kijken dat neurocognitieve wetenschap een blauwdruk geeft voor hoe onze brein architectuur in elkaar zit (zie bijvoorbeeld John Sweller, Cognitive Load Theory 2011, en The Forgetting Machine, Rodrigo Quian Quiroga, 2017, Science of Memory: Concepts, Roediger et al., 2007, Ten Steps to Complex Learning, van Merriënboer, 2017).
Dit is universeel toepasbaar, afgezien van mensen met een cognitieve aandoening bijvoorbeeld, dit gaat dus over neurotypische breinen.
Leerstijlen zijn een mythe, wel hebben wij leervoorkeuren, maar door alleen in onze leervoorkeur te leren missen wij bepaalde informatie die cruciaal kan zijn voor beter begrip en meesterschap (mastery).
Beter is het om studietechnieken te gebruiken die overeenkomen met brein-architectuur en die onder te knie te krijgen.
Meer cognitieve belasting te gebruiken (zonder cognitieve overbelasting te veroorzaken). Als leren "makkelijk" voelt is het over het algemeen niet uitdagend genoeg en/of de techniek niet nuttig. Herlezen / samenvatten is simpel maar vrij inefficiënt. Het maken van een GRINDEmap voelt moeilijk maar is vele malen effectiever (zie ook the misinterpreted effort hypothesis).
Zoals Dr. Ahrens al zei: "The one who does the effort, does the learning."
Verder heb ik een heleboel ideëen voor een optimaal onderwijs dat zich aanpast aan het individu in plaats van aan het systeem, maar dit is een te complex en groot onderwerp om zo even hier neer te zetten.

Die Trump-Rierung plant weitere 1000 Stellen bei der Klima- und Wetteragentur NOAA zu streichen. 1300 Angestellte wurden bereits entlasten. Damit würde das Personal einer der weltweit wichtigsten Institutionen für Meteorologie und Klimaforschung insgesamt um 20% gekürzt. Eine große Zahl von wissenschaftlichen und zivilgesellschaftlichen Organisationen hat gegen den Abbau der Behörde protestiert, mit dem die Administation eine Forderung des „Project 2025“ umsetzt. Der Artikel der New York Times geht auch auf die Demonstrationen zum Schutz der Wissenschaft ein, die es in vielen amerikanischen Universitätsstätten gab. https://www.nytimes.com/2025/03/08/climate/noaa-layoffs-trump.html

Überblicksartikel von 2019 zu den Angriffen auf die Wissenschaft während der ersten Trump-Regierung und ihre kurz- und langfristigen Folgen. Forschungen zur Klimakrise und öffentlichen Gesundheit wurden behindert, weil sie den Interessen der fossilen Industrien schaden. Der Kampf gegen Foschung, die Interessen bestimmter Unternehmen und Branchen bedroht, ging aber weit über die Klimathematik hinaus und dient u.a. auch der Chemie- und Agroindustrien. Zu den Maßnahmen gehörten: - Beendigung von Forschungsprojekten - Abbau des Einflusses von Wissenschaftler:innen auf regulatorische Entscheidungen - Verhinderung von öffentlichen Stellungnahmen von Wissenschaftler:innen - Behinderung von Forschungen zum menschengemachten Klimawandel - Vorschreiben erwünschter Forschungsergebnisse - Overruling von Experten durch politische Funktionäre bei Begutachtungen und Regulierungen - Einstellungsstopps und Entlassungen - Entfernung bestimmter Wissenschaftler:innen aus Beratungsgremien - Verbot der Berücksichtigung bestimmter Wissenschaftstypen bei Regulierungen - Druck auf Forschende, unwissenschaftliche Aussagen des Präsidenten zu unterstützen - Schließung von Forschungszentren und -büros und Auflösung von Ausschüssen - Umsiedlungen von Behörden und Forschungseinrichtungen in unattraktive Gegenden

Nach den Erfahrungen mit den Angriffen der ersten Trump-Administration auf die Wissenschaft haben Wissenschaftler:innen in den USA verschiedene Maßnahmen zum Schutz wissenschaftlicher Institutionen ergriffen. Die New York TImes berichtet ausführlich über diese scientific integrity policies, die wissenschaftliche Arbeit öffentlich beobachtbar machen, aber politische Einflussnahme ausschließen sollen. Die Biden- und schon die Obama-Administration haben scientific integrity policies gefördert. Zu den Maßnahmen gehören die Benennung von Verantwortlichen für wissenschaftliche Integrität in Behörden und Kollektivverträge, die die Disziplinierung von Forschenden erschweren.
Zum „War on Science“ schon der ersten Trump-Regierung gehörte außer Entlassungen von Wissenschaftler:innen auch die Anordnung der Verfälschung von Forschungsergebnissen. https://www.nytimes.com/2025/01/17/climate/trump-government-scientists.html

650 Angestellte der US-Klima- und Wetterbehörde NOAA haben in dieser Woche Kündigungsschreiben erhalten, das sind etwa 5% des Personals. Die Behörde soll sich sich offenbar auf die Wettervorhersage konzentrieren, während u.a. Klimawissenschaftler:innen Ziel einer Säuberung sind. Das Great Lakes Environmental Research Laboratory der NOAA stellt seine Öffentlichkeitsarbeit wegen Personalkürzungen ein. Durch den Personalabbau, auf den NGOs und viele Wissenschaftler:innen mit Entsetzen reagierten, werden Services unmöglich, die u.a. für Landwirtschaft, Fischerei und Meeresschutz essentiell sind. Die Abwicklung der NOAA gehört zu den im „Project 2025“ vorgesehenen Maßnahmen. https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2025-02-27/mass-firings-noaa-national-weather-service-ignite-fury

Has anyone used a cartridge places in an air line? It claims to reduce dust on a finished product. When the air line is used to blow off the piece before spraying, elements in the cartridge charge the air, making it electrically conductive. In turn this charged air pulls the static electricity from the panel preventing dust to be attracted.

Der französische Senat hat ein Rahmengesetz für die Landwirtschaft so verändert, dass nur noch die Interessen der Agrarindustrie berücksichtigr werden — mit gravierenden Folgen für den Schutz der Biodiversität. Ein radikaler Abbau von Vorschriften bedroht die biologische Landwirtschaft und auch Institutionen, die die Landwirtschaft wissenschaftsgestützt regulieren. Weiterhin verlieren immer mehr kleine Landwirtschaftsbetriebe die Existenzgrundlage. Ein Abgeordneter von La France Insoumise fasst in diesem Kommentar die aktuelle Situation zusammen. https://www.liberation.fr/idees-et-debats/tribunes/lagroecologie-balayee-par-lultraliberalisme-obscurantiste-20250223_YV6DZBVDZRDPNHDXS33U2WCZLA/

For instance, photocopiers use electric attraction to "glue" charged tone particles onto paper. Air fresheners not only make the room smell nice, but they also eliminate bad odors by discharging static electricity onto dust particles, thus dissembling the bad smell.

Charges can jump around between things, especially when things are rubbed together. When you drag your feet on the carpet, electrons from the carpet jump onto you. As the charge builds up, the electrons get too close to each other, and they need a place to escape.

The modern touch screen uses static electricity to function. Your smartphone has a capacitive touch screen. This conductive material stores the static from your finger in an electrostatic grid of tiny wires inside your phone. When you touch the screen, you complete an electrical circuit and cause a voltage drop on that section of the screen. The internal software processes where your finger is and executes a command in milliseconds.

With some sometimes tortuous explanations, the author discusses the issue of static electricity generation in ductwork. He uses logic, basic physics, and some equations to describe electron density, migration, and grounding within typical 4" PVC ducting attached to dust collectors. He concludes that it is effectively impossible for the static charge inside the duct to cause a spark, combustion, or explosion within the flowing air and entrained wood chips. I think he said (I read it a few minutes at a time, when time allowed) that it is entirely possible to receive a static shock from the outside of the ducting.

three simplifying strategies
for - three simplifying strategies
three simplifying strategies - MATHEMATICS / QUANTIFICATION - counting - When you count a series of objects, there is an underlying assumption of a simplification and abstraction of reality that eliminates all the variability that is present in real systems in nature - This is especially true in biology - To count "objects you are making the assumption that the similarities between them are what matters and you can ignore the differences that are usually there - So in applying the most basic ideas of mathematics, counting, we are already making a big assumption that abstracts away a lot of natural variability - statistics - once again, a lot of variability is simply bypassed - - - REDUCTION - studying a part of a living system in isolation of the living system - in vitro instead of - in vivo - We reduce the number of natural variables by restricting to an artificial lab environment - Processes can work well within the non-natural, highly constrained test environment but the results may not match with the same process in the natural environment when all the natural variability is present - ANALOGIES / METAPHORS

definition - haptic realism - Mazviita Chirimuuta - While mainstream scientific realism suggests that if a scientific theory is mature and supported by strong empirical evidence, then that scientific representation can be taken as the literal truth of how things exactly are. - In contrast, haptic realism, as the name "haptic" suggests, holds that the observer (human agent) through human touching / sensing of the aspect of nature studied plays an important role in contributing to the scientific representation. - In other words, the observer cannot simply be ignored and scientific truth has a kind of built-in degree of constructivism and relativism that depends on the perspectival frame of the observer - The many processes that occur when scientists are generating their theories creates simplifying models that strip away the complexities of reality but can be characterized by one perspective view - The scientist is situated and has his/her own unique - Lebenswelt (lifeworld), - perspective - instrumentation - narrative - to the observation and theoretical construction of the measured / observed data - But this is only one of many potential constructions - In this sense, haptic realism considers that the "objective" scientific reality is a partnership between - that which is observed - the modality of observing (instrumentation, techniques) - the linguistic words and constructed narratives using those words

there is no fundamental objectivity because the scientist is always bring bringing um its his or her interests uh and perspective and Tool making and strategies and these in in essence mold their questions into the questions that they can answer because they need to be able to mold them and so there is no objective uh window into reality in that in that case no scientific realism

that doesn't mean that science transcends if you like the human standpoint and we see things with a God's eye view if that's what we mean by objective then I would say no it's not objective
