🐛 Hidden insect diversity in grass shoots threatened by mowing

Hidden insect diversity in grass shoots threatened by mowing
When it comes to biodiversity, researchers and the public tend to focus on large-scale patterns. This overlooks a hidden but precious diversity: small, inconspicuous wasps, midges, flies, beetles and other insects that live in plants. These tiny creatures are actually very common, as shown by a team of researchers at the University of Göttingen and the Hungarian HUN-REN Center for Ecological Research.

A quiet change in everyday foods could save thousands of lives
Lowering salt in everyday foods could quietly save lives. Researchers found that modest sodium reductions in bread, packaged foods, and takeout meals could significantly reduce heart disease and stroke rates in France and the U.K. The key advantage is that people would not need to alter their eating habits at all. Small changes to the food supply could deliver large, long-term health benefits.

An electrode-based #Neuralink #Blindsight brain implant in visual cortex will not scale to large numbers of blind patients nor to normal-like vision beyond showing a few rough edges

Think different: The vOICe or Neuralink Blindsight
White paper: Why The vOICe vision BCI for the blind can likely defeat Neuralink Blindsight and other brain implants for restoring vision

This video essay about the look of Sinners (which was shot on 70mm IMAX and Ultra Panavision) brought up something I hadn't realised until now: the large format gives you a wide field of view with the look of a telephoto lens! What that means is that you get shallow depth of field like in closeup shots with the framing of a wider angle lens.
Personal observation: there's also very little barrel lens distortion that usually comes with wide shots on 35mm.

Screen grab of the movie Sinners by Ryan Coogler. A black pastor is standing inside a room made of white wooden planks and beams. He's forming a silhouette in front of an over-exposed white window. A cross is hanging on the wall screen left and a church boy is out of focus in the foreground. Green lines have been overlaid onto the image to underscore that straight lines at the edges of the frame are actually pretty straight.
A very wide shot from the modern remake of Magnificent Seven, which was shot on 35mm film using anamorphic lenses. Outdoor scene in a wild west town with wooden buildings. A group of at least a dozen people in period clothing is keeping their distance around the central character. He is a middle-aged man with short hair wearing a black dress coat. He's pointing a revolver towards a person just to the right of the viewer. This shot is not the same framing as the one from Sinners but it demons…

These common food preservatives may be linked to cancer
A large French study tracking more than 100,000 people over a decade has found that higher consumption of certain food preservatives—commonly found in processed foods and drinks—is linked to a modestly higher cancer risk. While many preservatives showed no association, several widely used ones, including potassium sorbate, sulfites, sodium nitrite, and potassium nitrate, were tied to increased risks of overall cancer and specific types such as breast and prostate cancer.
