Sunspots 836

Things I have recently spotted that may be of interest to others:



Christianity: Relevant discusses the five most commonly used (and misused) Bible verses.

Computing: Relevant also discusses the harmful effects of pornography on females.

Gizmodo discusses the too-useful iPhone. They more one relies on it, for example to pay for purchases, or to start a car, the worse it is to lose it or have it malfunction.

Health: NPR reports that a new kind of COVID vaccine may be ready for use soon.

The FDA has approved a new drug that is supposed to help Alzheimer's patients. But maybe it really doesn't, and it costs a lot. See also here for Gizmodo's take on this situation.

Politics: NPR reports on how the 2nd Amendment to the US constitution hasn't been friendly to blacks.

Science: Gizmodo reports that scientists have been successful in teaching blind people to echolocate (bats use echos to find things).

The graphic used in these posts is from NASA, hence, it is free to use like this.

Thanks for looking!

The echolocation study is intriguing. But they didn't tell us how to actually get the training ...
