Two variants are offered — the Pro with a 39.8 kWh battery and 292 km WLTP range, and the ProMax with 53.0 kWh and 382 km — both with a 14.6-inch touchscreen, 8.8-inch cluster, Leap OS 4.0 Plus, wireless CarPlay and Android Auto, and standard Level 2 driver assistance using 14 sensors and cameras across 21 functions.VOLVO FACELIFTS XC40, EX40 AND EC40Volvo has given the XC40, EX40 and EC40 their first major styling revision in nearly nine years, with all-new bodywork ahead of the A-pillars and revised 'Thor's Hammer' matrix LED headlights that Volvo says cut glare, debuting on the model year 2028 XC40 now that matrix LEDs are legal in the United States. Powertrains are unchanged, but the cars gain an 11.2-inch touchscreen with Google Gemini voice assistance, plus added cameras, radar and ultrasonic sensors supporting a smoother Pilot Assist with lane-change assist, a 3-D 360-degree camera view and an occupant alert for approaching cyclists before doors open.VOLKSWAGEN PLANS IQ.DRIVE UPDATE TO ID. BUZZVolkswagen will upgrade IQ.DRIVE functions on 2027 MEB vehicles, with the ID. Buzz receiving the fullest package including Road Experience Management, and Enhanced Travel Assist that can execute a driver-requested lane change above 45 mph using rear radar, waiting up to 12 seconds if traffic blocks the move while the driver stays responsible. The 2027 Buzz also reacts faster to posted speed-limit changes, notifying the driver before adjusting speed, slows near ramps and exits using navigation or turn-signal input, and uses crowd-sourced map data to supplement cameras where road markings are faded or weather is poor, bundled into In-Vehicle Premium with a one-year trial.NISSAN LEAF S IS CANADA'S LOWEST-PRICED EVThe 2027 Nissan Leaf S is Canada's cheapest electric vehicle at CA$34,998 (about US$25,250), nearly CA$2,000 below the Kia EV3 Light FWD and under CA$30,000 once the Electric Vehicle Affordability Program is applied. It uses a 53 kWh battery, a single 174 hp motor and up to 341 km of range, trailing the EV3 Light's 58.3 kWh, 201 hp and 356 km, and charging 10-80% in about 35 minutes against the Kia's 29, though both use an NACS port.JLR INVESTS £356 MILLION IN WOLVERHAMPTON EV PRODUCTIONJLR has spent £356m converting its Wolverhampton propulsion plant, renamed the Electric Propulsion Manufacturing Centre in 2024, to build electric drive units and assemble battery packs while continuing six-cylinder Ingenium engine production, giving it flexibility to flex output as the EV transition moves. The hall now making drive units for the Range Rover Electric, Range Rover GT, Jaguar Type 01 and smaller Defender 'Sport' previously built four-cylinder diesels on repurposed CNC machines, working to 80-micron tolerances against roughly 120 for combustion engines, with cells currently sourced from AESC in China and due to switch next year to Tata's Agratas plant in Somerset.EVGO OPENS 20-PLUG LOS ANGELES FAST-CHARGING STATIONEVgo has opened what it calls the largest non-Tesla fast-charging station in the City of Los Angeles, a 10-stall, 20-plug site on S Robertson Blvd in Mid-City just off the Santa Monica Freeway. The site has two 100 kW stalls, three 200 kW and five 350 kW, with 18 CCS cables capable of up to 350 kW and two CHAdeMO ports at up to 100 kW that keep older EVs served, though there are no NACS cables and NACS vehicles must use adapters.SKODA APPROVES NEW KAROQ FOR 2027 OR 2028Skoda chief executive Klaus Zellmer has approved a second-generation Karoq for launch in 2027 or 2028 on the Volkswagen Group MQB platform, reversing a plan under which the electric Elroq — itself a late addition to the range and now Europe's second best-selling electric car — was to have taken the Karoq's place. Zellmer said powertrains will be very comparable to the Kodiaq's and pointed to strong plug-in hybrid demand and a 100 km-plus electric range as ideal for the model, though a PHEV remains possible rather than confirmed.PENNDOT OPENS $11 MILLION CHARGER FUNDING ROUNDPennDOT has opened an $11 million round for EV charging infrastructure across 26 central Pennsylvania counties, with publicly accessible sites able to apply until 12 March 2027 under the third phase of the state's federally backed Community Charging scheme, which allocated $100 million in NEVI money from February to extend charging beyond Alternative Fuel Corridors. Local transportation planning agencies, not PennDOT, will set location priorities; the state says 50 NEVI-funded hubs have opened with 41 more planned or under construction, delivering over 146,000 charging sessions since December 2023 and avoiding more than 3,700 tonnes of CO2.TESLA CEO PROMOTES VIDEO OF DRIVER SAYING FSD IS 'EYES OFF'Elon Musk endorsed, with a heart emoji, a clip of Larry, a 98-year-old Model Y owner in Farmington, New Mexico, who says of FSD (Supervised) that he did not have to look at an intersection and does not want to, directly contradicting Tesla's disclaimer that the feature requires active driver supervision and does not make the car autonomous. The framing matters because Tesla's defence in Autopilot and FSD crash litigation rests on driver responsibility — a Florida jury already returned a $243 million judgment against the company, with up to $14.5 billion at stake across roughly two dozen cases — even as its lawyers have separately argued, successfully, that Musk's public statements should not be taken at face value.

In this episode, Dr. David Jockers sits down with Vanessa Spina, sports nutrition specialist, bestselling author of Keto Essentials, creator of the Tone ketone breath analyzer, and host of the Optimal Protein Podcast, for a deep dive on a groundbreaking new study out of the University of Nottingham, published in Clinical Nutrition in August 2025. You will learn why the old "you can only absorb 30 grams of protein per meal" rule doesn't hold up, what really happens to protein you eat beyond that amount, and why the popular anabolic-window advice to slam a shake right after your workout is largely a myth. Dr. Jockers and Vanessa then break down a randomized, controlled fasting-mimicking diet study that overturns the long-held belief that high protein blocks autophagy, and explain why a high-protein, calorie-restricted approach can outperform a low-protein one for visceral fat loss, ketone production, and metabolic health.  They close with a practical, hour-by-hour walkthrough of the protein-sparing modified fast (PSMF): what to eat, how much protein to target, how to structure refeed days, and how it compares to water fasting and Ozempic for appetite control.   In This Episode:  00:00 Protein Absorption Myth 00:14 Episode Intro and Study Teaser 05:29 Meet Vanessa and Study Setup 07:35 100g Protein Study Breakdown 12:17 Protein Timing and Real Life 17:48 Protein First for Satiety 23:55 Ketones and High Protein Keto 28:10 Stress Hormones and Growth Hormone 31:58 Autophagy Study Lead In 33:12 Why Human Trials Matter 34:52 Autophagy Headlines vs Reality 35:54 High Protein FMD Study Setup 39:01 Autophagy Still Upregulated 40:53 Visceral Fat and Metabolic Wins 44:12 PSMF One Day Weekly 44:58 Vanessa PSMF Results 47:22 Meals Macros and Refeeds 51:21 Ketones Hunger and Ozempic 55:27 Weekly Schedule and Whoosh 58:26 PSMF Meal Ideas and Tips 01:04:06 Water Fast vs PSMF 01:05:54 Wrap Up and Where to Find 01:06:56 Final Listener Outro   This podcast is sponsored by Paleo Valley's Turmeric Complex, a whole-food organic turmeric formula (not just isolated curcumin) blended with coconut oil and black pepper for absorption, plus ginger, rosemary, and cloves for extra anti-inflammatory and brain-support benefits.

In this episode, Ray Cochrane breaks down Hot Chips 2026, the engineering conference where IBM, NVIDIA, Intel, AMD, Arm, and Fujitsu all showed how their next processors actually work. The headline disclosure is a mainframe core that runs Arm natively. Ray also covers Apple’s odd M6 Mac mini naming, London’s first autonomous Uber rides, Amazon’s purchase of the company behind DuckDB, GitHub’s HydraFusion, the best of IFA 2026, and new USDA research on farmed salmon. – Want to start a podcast?

He apologizes for the late rollout and the missed Monday episode, having spent the week fighting a cold. He’s also heading to Michigan to spend time with family and visit his father’s gravesite. He hopes to record a couple of shows from his dad’s old studio while he is there, including a special episode planned for Tuesday. He also points listeners to a fresh site redesign that trades the old techie look for something cleaner and friendlier. The featured segment starts from a wrap-up post on Arm’s newsroom. However, Cochrane broadens it to cover the whole conference rather than a single article. Hot Chips has run every August since 1989, and this year’s event was the 38th, held August 23rd through the 25th at Stanford’s Memorial Auditorium. What Hot Chips Actually Is Cochrane draws a line between Hot Chips and the big consumer trade shows. CES and Computex exist for product announcements and marketing. Meanwhile, Hot Chips is an IEEE engineering conference where chip architects present block diagrams and die photos for thirty minutes at a stretch. The audience matters as much as the content. Roughly five hundred people who design chips for a living fill the room, and they would spot a fudged number immediately. No written paper is required, just the talk and the slides. In-person tickets sold out this year, as did Stanford’s dorm housing. Cochrane says he plans to cover the conference annually going forward. IBM Built a Mainframe Core That Speaks Arm The disclosure that stopped Cochrane cold came from IBM. Its next processor for IBM Z and LinuxONE runs two completely different instruction sets natively, on every one of its eleven cores. Those are z/Architecture, IBM’s own mainframe language, and AArch64, which is 64-bit Arm. Crucially, this is not emulation. Nor is it Arm cores glued onto the die beside the mainframe cores. IBM built 2,792 Arm instructions directly into the hardware, which it says is more than double the mainframe instruction count. Each core carries two separate decoders while sharing the caches, branch predictor and register files downstream. It switches between the two in nanoseconds. IBM even added dedicated hardware to flip byte order, because Arm and the mainframe store numbers in opposite directions. The payoff is Arm SystemReady compliance, meaning off-the-shelf Arm Linux runs on a mainframe unmodified. Patrick Kennedy of ServeTheHome, who was in the room, wrote: “I am sitting here still in awe of what IBM is doing here; this is not Z plus Arm cores, this is Z and Arm in one core.” Cochrane flags one precision point that is easy to get backward. IBM did not license Arm’s core designs and drop them in. Instead, it took its own mainframe core and taught it AArch64 under an architecture license, which is considerably harder engineering. The specifications are striking. The chip uses a 2nm process, with eleven cores running above 5.7GHz sustained and no turbo mode at all. Each core gets 36MB of L2 cache, backed by a 3.5GB virtual L4 pool. Furthermore, the reliability target is eight nines, which works out to roughly three tenths of one second of unplanned downtime per year. IBM gave it no name and no ship date, though the press expects “Telum III” around 2028. Arm, Fujitsu and NVIDIA Show Their Hands Arm itself had plenty to discuss, starting with an unfortunate name. Its first chip in thirty-five years is called the AGI CPU, which is a product name rather than any claim about artificial general intelligence. For three and a half decades, Arm designed processor blueprints and licensed them out, collecting royalties without competing. That era is now over. The AGI CPU is Arm’s own silicon, co-designed with lead customer Meta, running up to 136 cores on TSMC’s 3nm process at 300 watts. Arm’s CEO says the company has more than $2 billion in customer demand across the next two fiscal years. Fujitsu brought the detail Cochrane called the coolest of the conference. Its MONAKA chip packs 144 Arm-based cores, but the trick is the cache. Rather than sitting alongside the cores and eating die area, the entire last-level cache lives on a separate 5nm die with the 2nm compute die stacked directly on top. It ships in 2027 in 350-watt and 500-watt versions. NVIDIA had more stage time than anyone, with six sessions. Its new Vera CPU carries 88 cores of NVIDIA’s own Olympus design, which marks a change: the previous Grace CPU used Arm’s off-the-shelf cores. Consequently, Arm’s win here is the instruction set, not the blueprint. The memory disclosure drew the most attention, with a fully loaded system reaching 1.5TB at 1.2TB/s while the whole memory subsystem draws just 30 to 40 watts. The Caveat on NVIDIA’s Benchmark Slides Cochrane pushes back on how NVIDIA presented its numbers. On the standard SPEC integer benchmark, Vera scored 925 against AMD’s 128-core EPYC score of 898, about three percent ahead. However, the slide NVIDIA showed normalizes that same result per physical core, which makes a three percent gap look enormous. NVIDIA defends the choice, arguing that per-core throughput matters when thousands of AI agents run at once. Cochrane grants that it is a fair argument to make. Even so, his verdict is blunt: it is a different number from the headline one, and presenting it that way is not the best look.

Apple’s Newest Chip Landed in Its Cheapest Mac Last week’s episode covered the Mac Studio half of Apple’s August announcement. Tonight Cochrane takes the other half, the new Mac mini, and finds the numbering genuinely strange. The $899 base Mac mini gets the M6, which is Apple’s first 2nm chip and the newest process the company has shipped. It brings twelve CPU cores, twelve GPU cores, and 170GB/s of memory bandwidth. Apple also introduced a third CPU core class called super cores. So Apple’s most advanced chip sits in its cheapest desktop, while the M5 Pro, M5 Max and M5 Ultra above it all carry a lower number. It gets stranger. The M6 mini has Thunderbolt 4 while the pricier M5 Pro mini has Thunderbolt 5, and the memory ceiling runs backward too. Apple explains none of it across three announcement pages. Reading between the lines, Cochrane figures the M6 is the entry point of a new generation that shipped ahead of its larger siblings. London’s Robotaxis Started Carrying Passengers Arm’s monthly roundup covers everything outside the data center, and Wayve stood out. Transport for London granted the British self-driving company private hire vehicle licenses on August 5th, the same category a minicab needs. Then on September 3rd the service launched with Uber, marking the first autonomous rides ever offered to UK passengers. A small fleet of Ford Mustang Mach-Es covers anywhere in London except the airports, with a TfL-licensed safety driver still aboard. Over 140,000 Londoners signed up. The compute runs on NVIDIA’s Arm-based automotive platform, which is why Arm claims the win. Cochrane notes the pattern: once you set a standard nobody can move off, these wins keep arriving. Two more items round it out, both about squeezing AI onto phones. Google’s Pixel 11 shipped in August with the Tensor G6, and Google claims on-device AI runs up to 3.5x faster using 3.5x less energy. Those are Google’s own unbenchmarked figures. Separately, Graphcore’s research team worked with Arm to run an 11-billion-parameter vision model on phone-class processors by squeezing each parameter to 2.7 bits, taking the model from roughly 22GB down to 3.7GB. Intel Is Pitching AI Infrastructure From a Long Way Back Intel’s newsroom post previews the AI Infra Summit, running September 15th through 17th in Santa Clara. CEO Lip-Bu Tan takes a fireside chat on Tuesday morning, with three Intel sessions across the show. Cochrane unpacks two terms first. Physical AI means AI that acts in the real world through sensors and motors rather than living on a screen, and Intel takes it seriously enough to have renamed its PC division the Client Computing and Physical AI Group in May. Disaggregated inference splits the two phases of running a model: reading your prompt is compute-hungry, while writing the answer back is memory-hungry. The context is where this gets interesting. Intel’s revenue rose 25 percent last quarter, its fastest growth since 2011. Nevertheless, in AI accelerators the company barely registers next to NVIDIA. Gaudi has effectively been abandoned, to the point that Intel stopped maintaining its open-source driver, and AMD passed Intel in data center revenue last quarter. Tellingly, when Intel demoed disaggregated inference at Computex, NVIDIA GPUs handled one phase and SambaNova chips the other while Intel supplied the coordinating CPU. Crescent Island, Intel’s actual inference chip, does not sample until later this year, and Intel declined to publish its memory bandwidth. Amazon Bought the Company Behind DuckDB On August 26th, Amazon signed a deal to acquire DuckLabs, the Amsterdam company behind DuckDB. Cochrane spends time explaining what DuckDB is, since listeners outside the data world may never have encountered it. The problem it solves is familiar. Querying a large pile of data files traditionally meant either running a database server or spinning up a data warehouse with a cluster, a bill, and a loading pipeline. Both are heavy machinery for a question you wanted answered in ten seconds. DuckDB instead ships as a library rather than a server. You add it to your program like any other package, point it at your files, and write ordinary SQL directly against them. The data never moves. The usual comparison is SQLite, which is embedded in nearly every phone and browser on earth. Where SQLite excels at looking up one record, DuckDB rebuilds that embedded idea for chewing through millions of rows. It now sees roughly 62 million monthly downloads on Python’s package index alone, up from about 25 million last October. AWS says it is buying the company, not the project. DuckDB stays free and open source under the MIT license, held by a Dutch nonprofit foundation, and the founders join AWS while continuing to run technical direction from Amsterdam. Andy Warfield, a VP and distinguished engineer at AWS, described DuckDB as “the glibc of structured data: a lean, unglamorous, ubiquitous dependency that a great deal of software links against and almost nobody has to think about.” Cochrane sits with what that ownership means. He reaches for an analogy: imagine Daniel Stenberg selling curl. He doubts it would ever happen, but the concept alone is startling given how much infrastructure depends on it. His read is that AWS is betting DuckDB becomes as foundational as curl and SQLite already are. GitHub Has One AI Model Grade Another One’s Homework GitHub shipped Project HydraFusion into Copilot as a research preview. Instead of routing your request to a single model, it picks one of three approaches per request. Sometimes one model simply answers. Alternatively, a cheaper model drafts, and a quality gate decides whether to escalate. The interesting one is Critique. One model writes the code, a separate model from a different family reviews it read-only, and the original gets one pass to revise. Despite the name, nothing is fused here. There is no voting and no merging, just one model at a time with a gate deciding whether to spend more. GitHub explained the reasoning in an earlier post: “a model reviewing its own work is still bounded by its own training biases: the same training data and techniques, the same blind spots.” Research supports it. A team at NeurIPS in 2024 showed that models recognize their own writing and score it higher than human graders do. GitHub’s earlier number had a Claude Sonnet and GPT critic pairing closing about three-quarters of the gap between Sonnet and the larger Opus model. This mirrors a workflow Cochrane uses constantly and has described on a previous episode. He runs a cross-check review with a second model from a different company, and it routinely surfaces issues the first model missed. He explains that different training data, different engineers, and different reinforcement approaches build different internal biases about what counts as correct. Looking ahead, he expects more of these “Frankenstein patterns” where models from different training families work together. The Best of IFA 2026, and What You Can Actually Buy IFA opened to the public in Berlin for its 102nd year, with about 1,900 brands. Cochrane splits The Verge’s roundup in two, since much of what generates headlines at these shows never ships. Starting with real products, iRobot’s flagship Roomba Max 875 Combo runs $1,199 and ships in about two weeks. Its SealForce feature drops a hidden skirt from the chassis when it detects carpet, sealing against the fibers so suction concentrates instead of leaking out the sides. That reaches 35,000 pascals, iRobot’s strongest yet. A step-down model at $899 carries the same trick, though Cochrane balks at both prices. Anker’s Soundcore Sleep 4 Pro earbuds arrive in November at $349.99. The charging case carries its own round touchscreen, so you pick soundscapes, set alarms, and read sleep stats without your phone. Optical sensors read heart rate and variability from the ear canal, which beats the wrist for accuracy, and the case masks a snoring partner. Cochrane remains unconvinced about sleeping with earbuds in. Philips also has smart rope lights, the Hue Liane 360, on sale now. They glow evenly around the tube rather than showing individual LEDs. They also run $400 for three meters, which works out to about $130 per meter of rope light. As for concepts nobody can buy, iRobot showed a robot vacuum that carries a smaller robot vacuum on its back in a garage and lowers it to deploy. Lenovo brought a 14-inch laptop whose screen rolls out to 17 inches at the press of a button, which reviewers call the first rollable that feels close to shippable. Tecno showed a phone with essentially no border around the screen, and Acer had a Windows gaming handheld that swivels its screen up over a keyboard. Two themes ran through the show. Humanoid robots were the loudest thing on the floor, and IFA’s own CEO framed the event as being about robots that work rather than robots that demo. Meanwhile, AI stopped being its own product category and became an ingredient, showing up in refrigerators, treadmills, dishwashers, and motorized TV mounts. Farmed Salmon Isn’t the Omega-3 Machine It Used to Be USDA scientists measured farmed salmon and found considerably less of the good fat than the government’s own database claims. EPA and DHA are two fatty acids you get almost entirely from fish. Your body can build them from the plant version, but only in tiny amounts, so the NIH’s position is that eating them is the only practical way to raise your levels. Those fatty acids are structural pieces of every cell, with DHA concentrating in the brain and retina. That is why the federal dietary guidelines, issued jointly by USDA and Health and Human Services, recommend at least eight ounces of fish a week and steer you toward salmon. That amount is calibrated to deliver about 250 milligrams a day. Published in Frontiers in Nutrition last month, the study found EPA and DHA in farmed Atlantic salmon came in 54.7 percent lower than USDA’s own reference values, last updated in 2018. A three-ounce serving fell from roughly 1,670 milligrams to about 756. Consequently, two servings a week now fall about 14 percent short of the target. Plant-derived fats meanwhile rose two to three times over. The likely cause is feed. Salmon are carnivores, and farms once fed them oily little fish. There was never going to be enough of those as the industry scaled, so crops filled the gap: soy, canola, sunflower and linseed. Importantly, the study does not claim to have proven this and calls the feed shift a plausible explanation. Independent corroboration lends it credibility. Researchers at Stirling measured a similar halving in Scottish salmon between 2006 and 2015, and Norway’s marine institute saw it across thousands of samples. There is a land dimension too. Roughly half the world’s soy grows in South America, where rainforest gets cleared for feed. Matthew Hayek, who studies the environmental cost of protein at NYU, told Inside Climate News that “soy is a major, important protein and oil ingredient in fish farming.” Adding up two decades of soy across all fish farming, he puts the extra forest clearing at around the area of Nicaragua or Bangladesh. That figure covers all fish farming rather than salmon alone, and Hayek notes it is hard to attribute soy use to any single species. Cochrane closes with two caveats. First, the study measured only eight fish, bought around Maryland, DC and Virginia over six weeks in 2023, and nearly all sourced from Chile. That is not a national survey, and the authors say plainly the sample was not large enough to change government advice. Rather, it flags that a federal database value needs rechecking, which is what the paper set out to do. Second, on whether you should care, farmed salmon still beats beef, chicken and eggs by a mile, since those carry essentially zero EPA and DHA. What it loses is its crown among fatty fish, dropping to mid-pack behind herring, sardines and mackerel and roughly level with trout. The broader health case is also softer than the 2000s suggested. A review of 86 trials covering 162,000 people found supplements barely moved heart attacks or deaths, so eating fish and swallowing fish oil are not the same claim. No producer has responded to the findings, and USDA, whose own scientists ran the study, declined an interview and did not answer emailed questions. Cochrane wraps up with housekeeping and a note that he will be back on Labor Day. The post The Mainframe Learned to Speak Arm #1875 appeared first on Geek News Central.

In this episode of 50 Shades of Green, hosts Adam Lake and Katie Lanegran speak with Christine Egan, CEO of CLASP, about energy-efficient appliances — from household ACs and refrigerators to off-grid fans and lights serving 660 million people without electricity.As extreme heat intensifies, Egan makes the case that cooling is becoming a human right, provided it is highly efficient. She outlines how minimum energy performance standards create a market floor while incentives and bulk buying pull products toward best-available technology. A standout success: leveraging the Minamata Convention on mercury to phase out fluorescent lighting in favor of LEDs, avoiding nearly three gigatons of CO2.Recorded ahead of Climate Week NYC, the discussion links kitchen-table energy bills, indoor air quality, and climate policy, showing why smarter appliances matter for health, livelihoods, and the planet. Tune in for a clear-eyed look at one of climate action's most practical — and overlooked — tools.CLASP has a Find CLASP at New York Climate Week 2026 page to find out more, you can also catch them at the following Climate Week NYC events.

What did Hackaday editors Elliot Williams and Al Williams read in Hackaday last week? Probably everything, but you can tune in and hear about their favorites on this week's podcast. They heard from lots of listeners this week, and also saw DIY projects running from a 3D-printed Stirling engine, to clogs, to LEDs. There are some over-the-top hacks like a refit for a decades-old watch to do tap-to-pay and a -- for lack of a better word -- a record player that optically reads MOD files. Want to emulate an iPod? Talk to Eliza? Print a hand-operated rail car? Hackaday is the place to read about it all. The can't miss articles included a talk from Hackaday Europe about making magical PCBs and a not-so-brief history of space stations starting in the 1800s. Check out the links if you want to follow along, and as always, tell us what you think about this episode in the comments!

The sun is not as damaging as you've been told… Zaid Dahhaj shows us where the research breaks. Zaid runs The Circadian Classroom and studies circadian biology from first principles, which is how he ended up pulling apart the mainstream narrative around melanin, melanoma, and sunscreen. Once you understand that the research demonising UV is largely built on isolated UV exposure, nocturnal mice, albino mice, and keratinocyte-only petri dishes, the whole "sun causes cancer" story starts to look a lot less airtight. Melanin gets reframed here as an active defence system rather than damage on a ledger. It's photoprotective, it dissipates UV as heat, and it even chelates certain heavy metals. Night shift work is classified as a probable carcinogen, and most people are living a low-grade version of it: dark days indoors, and bright nights under LEDs. That's the inversion Zaid keeps coming back to. We also take a serious look at sunscreen chemistry, vitamin D3, sunglasses and eye health, seed oils and burn risk, and how to build a solar callus without frying yourself on a beach in Costa Rica. You'll learn: [0:00] Introduction [8:05] Night shift work's carcinogen classification and what it reveals about us all [11:21] Circadian repair restores UV-damaged cells so there's no accumulated damage [20:41] The sun-cancer research is built on nocturnal mice and isolated UV [30:34] The melanoma overdiagnosis problem and dermatology's stage zero caution [34:26] A tan isn't damage, melanin works as nature's sunscreen [47:16] The case for actively seeking the sun, and when to do it [51:58] Sunglasses remove one leg of the circadian stool [58:46] SPF 50 blocks the very anti-cancer vitamin D your skin needs [1:09:26] The exact daily routine to build your solar callus without burning Resources Mentioned: My Circadian App | Website Tap Zap App | Website In Defense of Sunlight by Rowan Jacobsen | Book or Audiobook Dr. Jack Kruse | Website A.

Good news this week for explorers seeking extraterrestriallife.本周对于寻找外星生命的探险家来说是个好消息。Scientists say they have detected a gas called phosphine swirling in the highly acidic clouds of venus.科学家表示，他们在金星酸性极高的云层中探测到了一种名为磷化氢的气体。But the European Southern Observatory's Itziar de Gregorio says it is probably too soon to say life exists on the planet.但欧洲南方天文台的伊齐亚尔·德·格雷戈里奥表示，现在就说这颗行星上存在生命可能还为时过早。This doesn't mean that we discovered extraterrestriallife on venus far from it.这并不意味着我们在遥远的金星上发现了外星生命。It is possible that we are unaware of a chemical that produces this phosphine and we have to investigate in that direction.可能存在某种我们尚未发现的化学物质能产生这种磷化氢，我们必须朝这个方向展开调查。The quest to study Venus began in 1960 with the Pioneer 5 space probe.对金星的研究始于1960年的先驱者5号太空探测器。But with this week's development, there's heightened interest in the planet.但是随着本周的研究发展，人们对这颗行星的兴趣大增。On earth, bacteria thriving in oxygen-starved environments like sewers and intestines produce the gas phosphine.在地球上，细菌在缺氧环境中（如下水道和肠道）大量繁殖，会产生磷化氢气体。The discovery on Venus is raisingspeculationthat microbial life exists there.金星上的发现引起了人们对那里存在微生物生命的猜测。But de Gregorio adds that the phosphine source could simply be something researchers have yet to study.但德·格雷戈里奥补充说，磷化氢的来源可能仅仅是研究人员尚未研究的某种物质。In other news that could be ripped from the pages of a science fiction novel, NASA and the European Space Agency or ESA joined forces this week to build a spacecraft to deflect an earthbound asteroid.在其他仿佛是从科幻小说里摘录出来的新闻中，美国国家航空航天局（NASA）和欧洲航天局（ESA）本周联手建造一艘航天器，旨在改变一颗可能撞向地球的小行星的轨道。This mission is essentially a demonstration so we can understand how these technologies could be used.这次任务本质上是一次演示，以便我们能够了解这些技术如何被应用。It's like billiards. Small force hits the asteroid that is heading for earth which should create an aversion.这就像打台球一样。用较小的力量撞击朝着地球飞来的小行星，这样应该能使其偏离轨道。And we want to practice this, so that we are ready if an asteroid is actually heading for us.我们想进行这种演练，以便在小行星真的朝我们飞来时能做好准备。NASA is set to launch a craft in June 2021 on a collision course with the asteroid to attempt altering its flight path.NASA计划于2021年6月发射一艘航天器，使其与小行星相撞，试图改变其飞行路径。If the mission succeeds, the ESA will launch a follow-up in 2024.如果任务成功，欧洲航天局将在2024年启动后续行动。In other news, images from space showed the vast and ancient icesheetatop greenland shed a 113 square kilometer chunk of ice last month.来自太空的图像显示，格陵兰岛顶部广袤而古老的冰盖上个月脱落了一块面积达113平方公里的冰块。The new research is yet another piece important piece of evidence showing that it's really time we stop hitting the snooze button and wake up to the climate emergency.这项新研究是又一项重要证据，表明我们真的该停止拖延，正视气候紧急状况了。We need to curb climate emissions right now immediately.我们现在需要立即控制气候排放。And we need to create a network of ocean sanctuaries covering at least a third of the blue planet if we are to take climate crisis seriously.如果我们要认真对待气候危机，就需要建立一个海洋保护区网络，使其覆盖这个蓝色星球至少三分之一的区域。Dr Laura Meller from Greenpeace says the time to act is now.绿色和平组织的劳拉·梅勒博士表示，现在就是采取行动的时候了。As more ice melts, experts say more dark water appears in its place, absorbing heat, further accelerating the process of melting ice and rising seas.随着更多冰层融化，专家表示，更多深色海水会出现在原本冰层的位置，吸收热量，进一步加速冰层融化和海平面上升的过程。And finally, UNESCO certifies Italy's Saint-Barthelemy valley as a Starlight Stellar Park, meaning it's one of the best places on earth to look up at the sky.最后，联合国教科文组织认证意大利的圣巴特岛山谷为星光公园，这意味着它是地球上观赏天空的最佳地点之一。The northern Italian municipality takes this designation seriously, having recently replaced lampposts with special LEDs that do not shine up. 意大利北部的这个自治市非常重视这一称号，最近刚刚把路灯柱换成了不会向上照射的特殊发光二极管灯。

On today's show we discuss Ara's new family room TV and Audio setup and what his plans are for the future. We also read your emails and look at the week's news. News: Marantz Introduces The CINEMA Series 2 Receivers Dolby Vision 2 HDR Is Officially Arriving On Certain Hisense TVs Nearly A Third Of U.S. Homes Get TV Only Via Streaming Peacock hikes prices for fourth straight year, this time by $3 Other: Theatrium - A home Assistant or HomeKit Dashboard for your AppleTV Parts List for Ara's New Home Family Room: Mantel Mount MM815 Motorized Drop Down & Swivel TV Mount - $700 The MM815 is a remote-controlled drop-and-swivel TV mount. Press one button to lower the TV to eye level and rotate it as needed. It comes with an RF remote, is silent, and has two memory presets. Sony BRAVIA 7 II PRO True RGB 4K HDR Google TV with Gemini (Model Number K75XR70PRO)-  $2300 The Sony BRAVIA 7 II PRO is Sony's 2026 mid-range True RGB Mini-LED TV (65 inches and up) with independently driven red, green, and blue backlight LEDs, XR processing, and about 2,000 nits of peak brightness for stronger color volume and contrast than a typical white Mini-LED. It is 4K at 120 Hz, supports Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos, and has HDMI 2.1 gaming features (VRR, ALLM, 4K/120). Google TV includes Gemini for voice search and recommendations, plus AirPlay 2. The Pro bundle adds a three-year replacement warranty, a backlit rechargeable remote, extra Sony Pictures Core credits, and an enhanced Voice Zoom 3 dialogue mode; picture hardware is the same as the standard 7 II. From RTINGS: Pros: Great black levels with minimal haloing. Bright details in HDR stand out incredibly well. Fantastic SDR brightness helps it overcome glare during the day. Fantastic upscaling and great low-quality content smoothing. Colors are incredibly bright and vivid. Cons: Dark scenes are hard to see during the day. Sonos Arc Ultra - $1099 The Sonos Arc Ultra supports Dolby Atmos that has a 9.1.4 driver layout and Sound Motion woofer to produce wide, height-enhanced surround and stronger bass from a single bar. It connects to a TV with one HDMI eARC cable, supports Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, AirPlay 2, and the rest of the Sonos ecosystem (including optional Sub and rear speakers), and can be controlled with the TV remote, Sonos app, touch controls, Sonos Voice Control, or Alexa. Trueplay tunes the sound to the room, and AI speech enhancement is meant to keep dialogue clear. It is a long, low-profile bar (about 46 inches wide) sold in black or white. Sonos Sub 4 - $899 The Sonos Sub 4 is a wireless subwoofer for Sonos S2 systems, pairing with current soundbars and speakers to add bass down to about 25 Hz. Two inward-facing 5-by-8-inch woofers and dual Class-D amps use a force-canceling layout so the cabinet stays relatively still and the bass stays clean. It has the same slot-style shape as earlier Subs, in black or white matte, and can stand upright or lie on its side. Updates over the Sub 3 include Wi-Fi 6, a faster processor, more memory, lower idle power, and a slightly lighter cabinet; setup is through the Sonos app, with optional Ethernet. Two Sub 4s can be used with the Arc Ultra. Master Bedroom: Sony BRAVIA 3 II 4K HDR LED Google TV (Model Number K55XR30M2) - $798 - The Sony BRAVIA 3 II is Sony's 2026 entry-level 4K LED set, sold from 43 to 100 inches. It uses a direct-lit LED panel, a 120 Hz refresh rate, and the XR processor for color, motion, and upscaling. HDR covers Dolby Vision, HDR10, and HLG. All four HDMI ports are 2.1, with 4K/120, VRR, and ALLM. It runs Google TV with Gemini, AirPlay 2, and Chromecast, plus built-in speakers that pass Dolby Atmos and DTS:X to a soundbar. The picture is good in bright rooms; but as you would expect, the contrast and HDR are limited compared with higher BRAVIA models. If you are going to use this for anything more than casual viewing or you are really critical of picture quality you may want to look elsewhere. But for those on a budget or used in a secondary room, it's a solid TV.

In March 2026, Laurent was invited by Jan Rosenow at Oriel College, Oxford, for a public debate on the energy transition. Held in the College's historic library, the discussion brought together contrasting perspectives on one of today's defining challenges. Jan Rosenow, Professor of Energy and Climate Policy, is renowned for his work on energy efficiency, electrification, and the transition to net-zero energy systems.Laurent opened by introducing the "Aristotelian Triangle" of the energy debate—Ethos, Logos, and Pathos—arguing that values, evidence, and emotion all shape how people interpret energy issues. Responding to Jan's distinction between energy addition and energy transition, Laurent made two key points.First, history shows that energy forecasts have repeatedly underestimated transformative innovations, from shale gas and LEDs to solar, electric vehicles, batteries, and AI-driven data centres. His conclusion: humility is essential when predicting structural change.Second, Laurent presented his "Diocletian Tetrarchy of Energy," pairing Vaclav Smil with Clayton Christensen to represent continuity versus disruption, alongside Daniel Yergin and Michael Liebreich to illustrate the roles of markets, geopolitics, and industrial transformation. He described himself as roughly 70/30 in favour of technological disruption while acknowledging the inertia of existing energy systems.The discussion also examined the cost of ideology, arguing that opposition to technologies such as offshore wind or nuclear power can shape investment, electricity prices, and energy affordability. It concluded by exploring industrial policy, energy security, and how nations should balance resilience, competitiveness, and comparative advantage in a changing geopolitical landscape.Although the formal debate lasted just over an hour, the conversation continued long afterwards. This episode captures part of those fascinating exchanges.  

This week's Hackaday podcast is a European affair again, as Elliot Williams is joined by Jenny List on a summer evening to review the week. And we have a feast of hacks for your delectation. As the title above says, one of the stand-out hacks this week was a set of airless mountain bike tyres 3D printed in glorious fluorescent TPU. They look as though they shouldn't work but in fact they showed real promise, and we discuss the process behind their design. Then we take a look at a hybrid of a UV printer and an SLA 3D printer, capable of making high-resolution and robust 3D prints. The prospect of new Amigas intrigues us for a while, then carbon-fibre fabric in 3D prints. Finally we're in awe of the tech behind the Las Vegas Sphere, and we're there for some radio at the Danish BornHack hacker camp. Follow that one up and you'll find a bonus, an unofficial extra Hackaday podcast. All the usual links are on Hackaday, but before you head on down to have a listen, don't forget we've got a mailbag for the podcast and we'd love to hear from you!

Ron and Dave catch up after a busy stretch and dive into a surprisingly full evening of RC activity. Ron rediscovers a long‑forgotten Carbon‑Z Yak in his basement and gives it a modern electronics refresh, while Dave wraps up his Beaver build and deals with a paramotor battery that's well past retirement age. The guys recap a night‑flying session filled with great flights, blinding LEDs, and an unbelievable swarm of moths. They also talk about upcoming events, new gear—including Ron's Losi NASCAR—and walk through how each of them powers and controls lights on their aircraft, from commercial setups to Dave's homemade servo‑based switches. A relaxed, fun catch‑up episode with plenty of RC tinkering talk.

In this episode, Patrick McKenzie (patio11) is joined by Misha Gurevich, CEO of Aerolamp, and Vivian Belenky, its chief scientist and a researcher at Columbia, to discuss why UVC, a wavelength of light that inactivates airborne pathogens but is absorbed harmlessly by the dead outer layer of human skin, remains almost entirely undeployed. They explain the physics and safety case for 222 nanometers, the economics of installation, and preliminary South African trial results showing 90% suppression of tuberculosis transmission in hospital wards. –Full transcript available here: https://www.complexsystemspodcast.com/the-economics-of-putting-germicidal-light-in-every-room/ –Presenting Sponsors: Mercury & MongoDBComplex Systems is presented by Mercury—radically better banking for founders.

Lighting has evolved from a functional necessity into one of the most expressive tools in the interior designer's palette. With intelligent fixtures, light can now shift in colour, temperature and intensity throughout the day, warming mornings, energising afternoons, and creating cinematic evenings, all tuned to how we actually live. It can transform art, sculpture and materials within the home, add layers and drama, quietly shaping mood, emotion and experience. How are interior designers and lighting specialists working together to use light and shade in new and exciting ways? How could we see these ideas in action at WOW!house 2026 and what is the likely impact of such creative, design sensitive collaborations on the future of luxury residential design? Host Jeff Hayward is joined by WOW!house 2026 room designer, Samantha Bartlett, Luke Thomas from John Cullen Lighting, James Ratcliffe from Homeplay and Shaun Gumbs from Lutron in front of a live audience of designers to find out.

If you were hoping for a quiet, relaxed summer in the pinball world, think again. Instead, we have three new game releases this month, along with a new edition of another popular title, while some recently announced games are now shipping to customers. So, make sure you join Jonathan and Martin for the latest July 2026 edition of the Pinball Industry News PINcast.First out of the blocks was Multimorphic, who launched not just one but two new titles with the much anticipated, Dungeon Crawler Carl, and the rather less expected, Ender's Game.While they share the same physical gameplay elements, they use them quite differently, along with unique theming, artwork, software, rules and sounds. Common to both, though, is a new large rotating disk incorporating multiple physical features and dynamic RGB lighting effects from more than 180 LEDs.To find out more about these two releases, Jonathan and Martin interview Multimorphic head, Gerry Stellenberg, Co-Creative Director for both games, Stephen Silver, and the artist who designed art packages for both, Brad Albright.Not to be outdone, the very next day fellow Texas manufacturer, Barrels of Fun, revealed their fourth title, Bon Jovi.Themed around the famed rock band and limited to 700 units, Bon Jovi features an innovative ‘Shot Through The Heart' mechanism as well as a rather unusual outlane ball save device. While the theme might not have appealed to everyone at launch time, the gameplay seems to be winning over the doubters.To get the latest update straight after its premiere at the Southern Fried Gaming Expo, Jonathan interviews the game's designer and Barrels of Fun's Chief Mischief Maker, David Van Es to find out how the Bon Jovi game was created, how it has been received, and what sales numbers mean for Barrels Reserve members.Meanwhile, American Pinball announced the final run of their Galactic Tank Force title with a special Victory Edition of 100 games featuring a unique set of add-ons, including a new tank model. This comes from The Art Of Pinball who have signed a new exclusive agreement to supply American Pinball with sculpts for this and future titles.Back in Texas, Turner Pinball have revealed the new sound package for their Yukon Yeti game. This comes just in time for the first production games, as they wing their way to early buyers. Chris Turner also revealed details of the new Turner Pinball factory currently under construction.There's lots more to report about new game add-ons, new job hirings, pinball's appearance at non-pinball shows, and a mass of new code from multiple manufacturers bringing new features and fixing existing bugs.But there's more, as Martin sits down with Aaron Davis of FAST Pinball fame to talk about the state of homebrew but, most importantly, to find out his favourite recipe, in the latest edition of What's Cooking, with…?Catch all this and much, much more in the July 2026 edition of the Pinball Magazine and Pinball News Pinball Industry News PINcast.

In this episode, my guest is Dr. Sean Cain, PhD, a Harvard Medical School-trained expert in the impact of light on the human circadian system, a Matthew Flinders Professor at Flinders University, and Co-Founder and CEO of Circadian Health Innovations. Today, he discusses how people differ more than fiftyfold in how sensitive their circadian systems are to evening light, that nearly half of modern homes are bright enough at night to suppress melatonin by fifty percent, and that most of us have no conscious awareness of any of it. We discuss the large observational studies he and his team have published linking bright days and dark nights to depression, type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and mortality, as well as his research on impaired light sensitivity in depression and why the amplitude of your circadian rhythm may matter more than its timing. We also discuss MiEye, the wearable light sensor his team developed, and practical changes to home and daytime lighting that anyone can make tonight.CLICK HERE FOR THE FULL SHOWNOTESThis includes all other resourcesSponsor: Brighter Lamphttps://getbrighter.com/?sjram=P2jrTbowzJOdCode: JONATHANJ   Subscribe to the newsletter: https://jonathanjarecki.substack.com/?utm_campaign=profile_chipsTimestamps 00:00 Intro03:54 Dr. Sean Cain04:42 Dr. Cain's Love for Science and Research10:25 Understanding Circadian Rhythms: Anatomy and Function10:56 Setting the stage: Circadian Biology, Rhythms, SCN, ipRGCs16:20 Light, Circadian Entrainment, Mechanisms19:57 High Sensitivity and Interindividual Variability in the Response of the Circadian of the Human Circa22:02 Individual Sensitivity to Light and Circadian Disruption27:22 Home Lighting, Sunset, LEDs, Fluorescents, Incandescents27:37 Home Lighting and Its Effects on Circadian Health33:46 Tools: circadian friendly home lighting39:24 Population health outcomes; UK BioBank39:29 Psychiatric Disorders47:52 SPONSOR: Brighter Lamp49:34 The Link Between Light Exposure and Mental Health01:04:18 Light Exposure and Longevity: Key Findings01:09:45 The Importance of Daylight for Health01:17:41 Understanding Circadian Rhythms and Light Exposure01:17:52 The Impact of Light on Mood and Self-Perception01:23:39 Innovations in Circadian Health: My Eye Device01:34:15 Jet Lag Management and the Jet Lag App01:39:09 Support, YouTube, Spotify & Apple Follow, Reviews & Feedback, Social Media, Substack Newsletter

In this episode of Fifty Shades of Green, hosts Adam Lake and Katie Lanegran sit down with Lisa Sachs, Director of the Columbia Center on Sustainable Investment and lead of Columbia's M.S. in Climate Finance at Columbia Climate School, for a candid, wide-ranging conversation about net zero, carbon markets, and what it will actually take to decarbonize the global economy. Against a backdrop of record heat, wildfires, storms and smoky skies, the trio wrestles with a central question: has the language and practice of “net zero” helped — or distracted — the climate movement?Lisa opens by clarifying what net zero really means: an atmospheric goal to balance emissions and sinks. She argues that the way net zero has been popularized — as an entity-level target for companies, cities or countries — is misleading and often counterproductive. Rather than driving systemic decarbonization, entity-level promises too frequently rely on offsets and voluntary carbon markets, allowing emitters to claim neutrality without changing underlying systems. Lisa worries voluntary markets are largely driven by methodological flaws and middlemen profit, and that offsets cannot substitute for actual decarbonization everywhere. Adam and Katie push back and probe implications, including whether the net zero framing could be a cynical distraction — Lisa admits that while conspiracy is tempting, institutional inertia and misunderstanding of systems are more likely culprits.The conversation pivots to solutions-oriented thinking. Lisa is optimistic about the present moment: decarbonized systems for energy, transport, buildings and industry are now often cheaper, more resilient, and superior on performance — they are “better systems.” The barrier is not technology but coordination, planning, policy enablers and financing structures, especially in emerging markets. She emphasizes that while private capital can and should drive many transitions, nature and resilience must be treated as public goods requiring public finance. Rather than obsessing over terminology or expecting COP negotiations to design and implement systems, Lisa urges practical, sectoral, regionally tailored solutions developed in the year between COPs and then brought to the global stage for political validation and scale.Adam and Katie reflect on messaging and politics: why “net zero” has become a loaded phrase and how consumer-focused narratives (you must sacrifice) have undermined public support. They highlight the need to shift discourse toward the tangible, everyday benefits of better systems — cheaper energy, reliable grids, improved appliances, and jobs — drawing parallels with how LEDs and EVs moved from niche statements to mainstream, nonpartisan technologies. The hosts also discuss the role of fossil fuels in emerging economies and the unfair financing barriers that make leapfrogging to clean systems difficult; Lisa insists we should enable scalable, financeable clean infrastructure rather than concede fossil dependence.Throughout, the tone balances critique and constructive optimism: the net zero construct may be flawed, but the transition to a cleaner, fairer, more prosperous world is feasible and economically compelling. The episode closes with a call to reframe the work: focus on building the better systems we need, redesign financing and policy levers to unlock them globally — especially in fast-growing emerging markets — and use forums like COP to scale proven solutions rather than invent them.Listeners will come away with a sharper understanding of the limits of carbon offsets, a clearer picture of what “net zero” should mean, and practical hope: we know what systems to build, the barriers we must remove, and how collective, cross-disciplinary action can make a decarbonized future both attainable and beneficial for everyone.

Gallium Nitride is a remarkable material. Dr. Umesh Mishra - a UC Santa Barbara professor and pioneer in GaN transistors and LEDs - said at a retrospective of the WBGS-RF program (what that is, we will talk about later): “Gallium nitride actually is kind of God's gift to mankind ... [It] just kept cooperating and cooperating and you're like, ‘Why is this material working?'” GaN's physical problems are legendary. Despite those problems, this grumpy material has changed the worlds of light, radio, and power. That's kind of interesting. In today's video, Gallium Nitride's journey from a technical flop to a bringer of light to the gates of power.

In this episode, host Konstantinos Karagiannis reunites with longtime friends and co-founders of the Quantum Village, Mark Carney and Victoria Kumran, to preview their upcoming plans for DEF CON 34. Celebrating their fifth anniversary, the duo reflects on how the Quantum Village has evolved from a "hodgepodge" of quantum skepticism into an internationally recognized hub for open-source, hands-on hardware. Backed by their first-ever philanthropic grant from Mozilla, Victoria and Mark highlight how the village is breaking down academic barriers and empowering educators, security researchers and hobbyists alike to engage with complex quantum concepts on their own terms.   Get an exciting look at some of the village's wildest DIY achievements, including a recap of "Uncut Gem," a budget-friendly, open-source quantum magnetometer built using green LEDs and red filter gel instead of expensive laboratory lasers. They also dive into their newest $35 open-source creation, the "entropy loop," a quantum random number generator (QRNG) designed to build real intuition about vacuum fluctuations and phase diffusion. Touching on this year's DEF CON theme of "agency," the guests tackle how independent creators can push back against big-tech opacity by building and understanding their own secure systems. As with DEF CON in general, this episode covers a wide technical range, from how quantum sensors might detect alien signals to tinkering with a Raspberry Pi Pico. Also find out what two talks Konstantinos will be giving at the show this year.    For more on DEF CON, visit https://defcon.org/index.html.   For more on Quantum Village, visit https://quantumvillage.org/. Visit Protiviti at www.protiviti.com/US-en/technology-consulting/quantum-computing-services to learn more about how Protiviti is helping organizations get post-quantum ready.  Follow host Konstantinos Karagiannis on all socials: @KonstantHacker             Questions and comments are welcome!  Theme song by David Schwartz, copyright 2021.  The views expressed by the participants of this program are their own and do not represent the views of, nor are they endorsed by, Protiviti Inc., The Post-Quantum World, or their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, representatives, shareholders, or subsidiaries.  None of the content should be considered investment advice, as an offer or solicitation of an offer to buy or sell, or as an endorsement of any company, security, fund, or other securities or non-securities offering.

The hosts for the 2026 Wisconsin Farm Technology Days, No Joke Dairy in Stratford, are examples of what a partnership with Focus on Energy can accomplish. Pam Jahnke visits with Matt Redetzke, one of the brothers farming, about their fifth-generation family farm in Marathon County. Through careful planning with Focus on Energy, the farm has achieved considerable savings on several projects around the farm. Focus on Energy Advisor, Kevin Weiler, explains the amount of energy saved - and the money that was kept in the farm families pocket! Energy Efficiency Upgrades with Focus on EnergyNo Joke Dairy has implemented a series of energy-saving improvements in partnership with Focuson Energy:• Livestock Waterers (Installed in 2022 and 2023)o Installed new waterers that use less electricity and keep water from freezing in winter.The cows always have clean water to drink, even during the colder months. Thesewaterers save money on energy bills and keep the animals comfortable. • LED Exterior Lighting (2023)o Replaced exterior lights with LED lights. LEDs make outdoor areas safer for everyoneand last longer, reducing the need to replace them as often.• Refrigeration Heat Recovery (RHR) System (2020)o Installed an RHR system that takes heat from the milk-cooling process and uses it towarm water for the farm. The farm needs less electricity or fuel to make hot waterfor cleaning. • Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) Vacuum Pump (2019)o Upgraded to a vacuum pump with a VFD to allow the milking system to run at the powerneeded, instead of at full power all the time. This reduces electricity use and extendsequipment life. • High-Bay LED Fixtures (2019)o Improved lighting inside the barn with high-bay LED fixtures to create a brighter, saferworkspace while using less energy than traditional high-intensity lamps.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Near-Infrared Light Therapy & EMF Shielding with SaunaSpace Founder Brian Richards Your mitochondria are starving for a nutrient you've probably never tracked, and it's not a vitamin or a macro. This episode reveals how a forgotten 1910 therapy uses light to physically restructure water inside your cells, unlocking a mechanism for healing, detox, and mitochondria repair that most of biohacking has completely overlooked. Go to https://sauna.space/ and use code ‘Dave' for a 15% discount! Host Dave Asprey sits down with Brian Richards, founder of SaunaSpace and a leading voice in incandescent light therapy and infrared sauna engineering. With a background in chemistry and organic synthesis, Brian spent over a decade building a science-backed alternative to LED-based light therapy rooted in full-spectrum incandescent light and deep radiant heat. After healing his own insomnia, adrenal fatigue, and brain fog through light and heat exposure, he developed the FireLight Spectrum, a technology engineered to restore what modern lighting strips away. Dave and Brian trace incandescent light therapy back to Dr. John Harvey Kellogg's 1910 book on light therapeutics, and explain why the same institutional forces that suppressed chiropractic care and natural medicine buried this practice for over a century. They break down how near-infrared light penetrates the body to charge water into a more bioavailable state, boost glutathione and melatonin production, and repolarize cellular voltage for better metabolism and longevity. The conversation also covers why blue light from LEDs devastates hormones, testosterone, and fertility, how EMF exposure silently drains human performance, and why grounding and Faraday shielding matter more than most supplements on the market. You'll Learn: Why near-infrared light functions as an essential nutrient your body cannot make without it How light physically restructures water to improve mitochondria function and cellular energy The suppressed history of Dr. Kellogg's incandescent light therapy and why it disappeared How blue light exposure crashes testosterone and disrupts fertility and hormone regulation Why EMF shielding and grounding are critical, overlooked tools for longevity and recovery How to use infrared light like a daily supplement instead of an occasional treatment Why carnivore-adjacent, nutrient-dense eating pairs naturally with light and heat therapy Thank you to our sponsors! - ELITE Performance Coaching | If you'd like to discover where you may be addicted to struggle, allergic to success, and what may be standing between you and your next breakthrough, visit FastestChange.com - Longevity Farms | Go to getlongevityfarms.shop.

In this episode, my guest is Dr. Glen Jeffery, PhD, a professor of neuroscience at University College London's Institute of Ophthalmology and a leading expert on how light interacts with mitochondria to shape health and aging. Today, he discusses how red and near-infrared light penetrate deep into the body and improve mitochondrial function and overall health. We also discuss how detrimental modern indoor life has become and why expensive red light panels are likely unnecessary and possibly harmful.By the end, you'll understand sunlight as a biological input your body evolved to depend on and the low-cost, practical steps you can take to get more of it.FULL SHOW NOTES HERE: https://l1nk.dev/bjuu235 Sponsor: Shadowmap  https://app.shadowmap.org/?ref=jonathan&discount=JONATHANJ Code: JONATHANJ   Sponsor: Ra Opticshttps://www.raoptics.com/JONATHANJ Code: JONATHANJ About this guest:Academic Profile: https://profiles.ucl.ac.uk/7465 Google Scholar: https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=UYlObKkAAAAJ&hl=en LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/glen-jeffery-441a2b1b/ Timestamps:00:16 Intro02:46 Dr. Glen Jeffery03:14 Love for Science, Undergraduate04:24 Tiina Karu, Photobiomodulation Origins, Mechanisms 06:14 Mechanisms, Cytochrome C Oxydase, Nanowater, Electron Flow10:56 Cytochrome C Oxydase, Extra-Pineal Melatonin, Oxidative Stress12:45 Gerald Pollack, Exclusion Zone (EZ) Water13:45 Red/IR Light Passes Through the Human Body; Optics18:09 Red Light On Fruit Flies; Lifespan, ATP Production21:15 Human Epidemiology; Sunlight, Lifespan, All-Cause Mortality22:35 Sponsor: Shadowmap23:30 Features and Benefits of Shadow Map25:02 Incandescents, lifespan, and more25:02 Incandescent Light Produces the Oldest Flies; Broad Band IR on Lifespan25:48 Incandescent Light Bulbs, Vision 28:19 Evolutionarily Conserved Mitochondria29:03 Long-Wavelength Light & Blood Glucose; Mitochondria32:50 Unpublished CGM Data; Long-Wavelength Light & Blood Glucose36:57 Are Red Light Panels Harmful?; Light Intensities, Precautions, Mitigations43:56 Why Do We See Beneficial Effects From Long-Wavelength Therapy? 46:43 Short-Wavelength Blue Light, Mitochondria, Mechanism49:08 The Built Environment, Actionable Steps 52:24 Sponsor: Ra Optics54:24 Flicker55:24 Retinal Health, Blue Light, Red/IR Light59:09 Clinical Trial for Mitochondrial Disease; Ptosis, Red Light01:02:31 Biophotons, Mitochondrial Communication, Red/NIR on Biophotons 01:13:54 Support, YouTube, Spotify & Apple Follow, Reviews & Feedback, Social Media, Substack Newsletter

It's Listener Mail time again, and this week the High on Home Grown community keeps the questions coming, covering everything from grow room troubleshooting to podcast ideas, with plenty of laughs in between! We kick things off by discussing whether LED grow lights really cause calcium and magnesium deficiencies, or if there's more to the story than growers often realise. We also answer questions about transplanting autoflowers, when (or if!) it's worth doing, and the best timing if you decide to give it a try. The panel also chats about electrical safety in the grow room, how much equipment can realistically be run from a single socket, and why modern LED lighting systems sometimes seem to come with enough cables to wire an entire house! We also discuss whether LED fixtures should be cleaned, how often, and the safest way to keep them running efficiently for years. Away from the grow room, we answer questions about when outdoor cannabis plants typically begin their stretch in northern climates, whether UK growers should be worried about potential changes to seed laws, and even discuss the possibility of introducing more of Margaret's much-loved story time episodes in the future. As always, it's another relaxed Listener Mail packed with practical growing advice, community questions, plenty of banter, and the usual dose of Lobby Lobster madness.

Terp Mansion is one of the fastest scaling Youtube channels in the cultivation space. Located in the Emerald Triangle he has expanded from a homestead to a 75,000+ square feet of canopy operation while living onsite with his family.Join Luke as he sits down with We The Growers Podcast and Roach from Jungle Boys to break down what it actually takes to run a cultivation brand growers respect — greenhouse production, LED vs HPS lighting, cannabis genetics, IPM, and scaling a brand from the bench to 80+ retail doors.We get into Terp Mansion and Jungle Boys time in Athena's Crowdsourced R&D program, including a lower-nitrogen feed strategy built to push smoke quality — nutrient timing, EC adjustments, foliar applications, and side-by-side trials that settle arguments theory never can. Cultivation moves forward when growers share what they learn.Then we go straight at the debate every grower has an opinion on: LED vs HPS. Terp Mansion lays out why LEDs have taken over greenhouse production for consistency and yield — and why HPS-grown flower still holds the edge for hash and rosin thanks to bigger trichome heads.On genetics, we talk Gorilla Glue, SFV OG, and why the old-school OG cultivars keep outgrowing the hype-strain cycle year after year.Whether you're a home grower, commercial cultivator, hash maker, breeder, retailer, or cannabis entrepreneur — this one's full of dirt-under-the-nails insight from someone actually building, testing, and growing at scale.Listen now on Spotify or Apple Podcasts:https://open.spotify.com/show/5VrbpGbAE9JYn3I0Vo8zSy?si=3832d93785d14a5fhttps://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/we-the-growers/id1620427747Follow Luke from Terp Mansion on Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/terp.mansionSubscribe to his YouTube Channel here: https://www.youtube.com/@terpmansion/Produced by the Athena Ag Team.We The Growers Podcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/wethegrowerspodcast/Athena Ag Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/athena.ag/Visit our Website: https://www.athenaag.com#WeTheGrowers #AthenaAg #ForTheCulture

On this episode of Fifty Shades of Green, Adam Lake and Katie Lanegran dive into the intersection of theatre and climate with Molly Braverman, Executive Director of the Broadway Green Alliance. If you love Broadway — or care about practical climate action — this conversation reveals how the theatrical world backstage and onstage is being transformed to reduce emissions, cut waste, and inspire audiences.Molly explains Broadway Green Alliance's two-part mission: make theatre operations more sustainable (lower emissions, boost circularity, change backstage practices) and use the cultural power of Broadway to reach audiences with climate solutions. She walks us through concrete, replicable programs that show sustainability can be both creative and cost-effective — and often a better business decision.Highlights from the episode:Green Captains: A volunteer program with over 1,600 green captains across Broadway, touring productions, colleges, unions, and community theatres. These sustainability champions receive department-specific toolkits and one-on-one support to implement changes that fit each show's needs, from stage management to props.Rechargeable batteries at Wicked: A striking example of impact — Wicked moved from 15,000 single-use alkaline batteries per year to 96 rechargeable batteries, dramatically reducing e-waste and costs while maintaining show safety.LED marquees: A Broadway-wide transition from incandescent bulbs to LEDs has saved over 10,000 tons of carbon to date and delivered substantial financial savings while preserving the iconic look of Times Square.Front-of-house and dressing room changes: From reusable glassware and reusable “sippy” cups to composting in dressing rooms, Molly shares how small visible shifts reduce waste and normalize sustainable behavior for audiences and performers alike.Circular programs and collections: BGA runs specialty collections (flowers and vases, instrument strings, binders and props) partnering with organizations like TerraCycle, D'Addario, Materials for the Arts, and local florists to keep materials in use across the community.Binder lending library: A Midtown lending system for binders (complete with library slips) to reduce single-use purchases for readings and rehearsals — a charming example of theatre's inherently reuse-friendly culture.Audience engagement & storytelling: BGA leverages Broadway's reach — from Earth Month concerts in Times Square to livestreamed events — to educate and inspire audiences. Molly describes using existing shows to “tell climate stories” and creating short climate-themed pieces (e.g., a 30-minute “Climate Talk” with showtune puns) to meet people where they are.Global connections: BGA collaborates with international counterparts (Julie's Bicycle, Theatre Green Book) to share best practices and amplify the performing arts sector's climate leadership worldwide.How to get involved: Molly invites theatre professionals, students, and fans to join BGA's free membership, follow @BroadwayGreenAlliance on social, sign up for the quarterly newsletter, attend public drives in Times Square, or support local theatres by asking what they're doing to be greener.Throughout the episode, Adam, Katie, and Molly keep the chat lively, full of theatre nerd energy and practical optimism. Whether you're a stage manager curious about digitizing paperwork, a performer wanting to start a compost routine, a fan wondering about reusable cups, or a student pursuing theatre and climate studies, this episode shows there's a place for you in the movement — and that “every job is a climate job.”Find out more at BroadwayGreen.com or follow Broadway Green Alliance on Instagram.

On today's show we look at some AppleTV and Home announcements from the Apple WWDC and look at what that fuss is about the new Sony's True RGB TVs. We also read your emails and take a look at the week's news. News: Households Used More Than 10 Video Services Daily Google Rolls Out a Major Update to Its Google TV Streamer 4k Apple TV from Apple's WWDC 2026 Key takeaways for Apple TV from Apple's WWDC 2026 are relatively modest and software-focused, as the event emphasized iOS 27. tvOS 27 Highlights for Apple TV Larger Text / System-Wide Text Size Adjustment: A new accessibility option lets users increase on-screen text size across supported apps and the interface. AI-Generated / On-Device Subtitles: tvOS 27 adds real-time automatic subtitle generation for videos lacking built-in captions (including personal content).  Other Refinements: Expect Liquid Glass UI polish, performance/stability improvements, smarter recommendations, and better smart home/HomeKit ties. Siri upgrades (more conversational, on-screen awareness) should improve voice control on Apple TV, though full Apple Intelligence features may wait for new hardware. tvOS 27 developer betas are available now post-keynote, with public release expected in fall 2026 alongside other OS updates. As far as the Apple Home app goes, updates  mainly dealt with Apple Intelligence integration for smarter camera handling and notifications: The Home app now uses Apple Intelligence to generate natural language descriptions of compatible camera footage, letting you search clips conversationally by saying something like,  "show me when the dog was in the backyard" Smarter batched notifications that feel less overwhelming. Alerts are intelligently grouped and dynamic instead of constant floods. Accessory updates update in real-time as conditions change. With deeper Siri AI and Shortcuts integration you can describe automations in natural language and let Siri build them (including Home shortcuts). Voice control becomes more conversational and context-aware. Hardware Notes No new Apple TV 4K hardware was announced at WWDC (consistent with expectations). A refreshed model with A17 Pro (or similar) for full Apple Intelligence/Siri 2.0 support, better smart home capabilities, and possibly Wi-Fi 7 has been "ready for months" but is being held for later in 2026 to align with the advanced AI features. What is Sony's True RGB TV All About? Sony's True RGB is Sony's marketing name for their advanced RGB Mini-LED backlight technology, introduced in 2026 for high-end BRAVIA TVs the BRAVIA 9 II and BRAVIA 7 II series. How True RGB Works Traditional Mini-LED or QLED TVs typically use white or blue LEDs as the backlight, then pass that light through color filters or Quantum Dots to create colors. This filtering process can reduce color purity, brightness, and efficiency. Sony's True RGB technology takes a different approach by using tiny independent red, green, and blue (RGB) LEDs in the backlight, with each color LED controllable separately across thousands or even millions of local dimming zones, generating color directly at the light source before it reaches the LCD layer rather than filtering white light. Sony's True RGB technology delivers purer and more accurate colors with a significantly wider color volume and gamut, higher peak brightness while maintaining excellent color accuracy, superior contrast and black levels that can challenge OLED performance in certain scenarios, improved energy efficiency through smart power distribution algorithms that use less power than previous generations, and outstanding off-angle viewing with minimal color shift. Key Advantages Sony Highlights Sony's True RGB technology delivers true-to-source color accuracy, backed by the company's deep professional monitor expertise and decades of innovation in RGB technology dating back to the groundbreaking 2004 QUALIA series. This is powered by advanced RGB Backlight Master Drive processing that expertly manages the immense complexity of controlling millions of individual colored diodes in real time. Overall, it successfully combines the best of Mini-LED brightness with near-OLED levels of color performance and contrast. In short, True RGB is Sony's premium implementation of direct RGB Mini-LED backlighting. Sony emphasizes not just the hardware (RGB LEDs), but their proprietary optical design, drivers, and image processing to make it perform better than competing RGB LED TVs from other brands. Sony True RGB Models with Pricing (2026 Lineup) Prices are MSRP/launch pricing (as of mid-2026; actual street prices and sales vary by retailer like Best Buy, Crutchfield, or Sony's site). Larger sizes command big premiums. BRAVIA 7 II - more accessible entry into True RGB, excellent color and brightness for the price 50" — ~$1,600 55" — ~$2,100 65" — ~$2,600 75" — ~$3,100 85" — ~$4,000 98" — ~$9,000 BRAVIA 9 II - higher brightness, more advanced processing, better anti-glare, and local dimming performance 65" — ~$3,600 75" — ~$4,600 85" — ~$6,500 115" — ~$31,000 (a massive premium flagship option)

Cinematographers Darren Tiernan, ISC and Peter Deming, ASC are the DPs of Spider Noir, the new MGM Plus and Amazon Prime series starring Nicolas Cage as the hard-boiled 1930s New York detective version of Spider-Man. The character is based on Marvel Comics featuring Spiderman Noir, and first introduced in Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse. Tiernan and Deming created a series that looks like a classic film noir using vintage lights, custom LUTs and a “noir vocabulary.” We dive into: -How the production created a dual release simultaneously in both black and white and color. -Lead DP Darran Tiernan worked for months on LUT development and a workflow that kept every department aligned on both versions from day one. Monitors on set showed what the scenes would look like in black and white. -Why both Darren and Peter used old tungsten lights with Fresnel lenses instead of LEDs whenever possible. Not out of nostalgia, but out of necessity for getting the hard light that defines film noir. -How rigorous preparation, from shot decks before the first meeting to photo boards and green screens on location, allowed creative freedom to take risks in the moment when the cameras were rolling. -Why the goal was never to recreate classic noir but to absorb its philosophy of shadow, composition and expressionistic light and apply it to this specific story. That distinction is what makes Spider Noir feel fresh rather than like a period piece.

Freddie is recording from a kitchen in Sardinia — Cynthia on the couch, Gladiator 2 queued up, and a commitment to never miss a Monday. In this solo dispatch, he revisits the recent episode with Elaine Pauli and MagnaWave, sharing new clinical data that wasn't in the original episode: PEMF therapy didn't just reduce prostate size by 27% in 30 days — it actually changed how mitochondria process carbohydrates and sugar, restructuring the cell's ability to generate energy going forward. He connects this to one of the most compelling proofs in the field — a non-union fracture that fails to heal for seven years suddenly restarting bone growth when exposed to high-powered PEMF — and the Kentucky Derby winner who crossed the finish line after using MagnaWave every day in training. This isn't fringe anymore. It's FDA cleared as a Class II medical device. And Freddie has been waiting for this moment for over five years. He also shares a personal announcement: after championing Light Path LED since 2018, Freddie has officially stepped into a leadership role at the company alongside founder Scott Kennedy and Ben Carlson. He breaks down the new Titan panel — six feet of full-body red light coverage, three spectrums, 1,000+ LEDs, a mechanical adjustable stand, and a five-year warranty — and explains why even a 0.2% daily increase in mitochondrial output compounds into something profound over seven years of consistent use. The episode closes with something rarer in the wellness space: a genuine reflection on the healing power of doing nothing. Florence, Rome, Sardinia, good food, long walks, and people watching. No emails. No protocols. Just presence — and the reminder that the tools only work if the nervous system is calm enough to receive them.    Episode Highlights [02:38] – New MagnaWave findings on prostate size and mitochondrial function [03:42] – PEMF as a signaling tool rather than the source of healing itself [06:00] – MagnaWave's FDA-cleared progress and the future of PEMF adoption [07:10] – Freddie announces his leadership role with Light Path LED [09:15] – The new Titan red light panel and why accessibility matters [13:50] – The compounding effect of small daily wellness habits [15:02] – How chronic illness forced Freddie to rethink his lifestyle choices [16:05] – Why travel and unplugging can be deeply therapeutic [17:58] – Reflections on rest, perspective, and slowing down outside daily routines   UPGRADE YOUR WELLNESS Get AuraWell PEMF: https://calendly.com/cameron-ci3b/podcast Silver Biotics Wound Healing Gel: https://bit.ly/3JnxyDD Code: BEAUTIFULLYBROKEN LightPathLED https://lightpathled.com/?afmc=BEAUTIFULLYBROKEN Code: beautifullybroken STEMREGEN: https://www.stemregen.co/products/stemregen/?afmc=beautifullybroken Code: beautifullybroken Flowpresso 3-in-1 technology: (https://calendly.com/freddiekimmel/flowpresso-one-on-one-discovery) CONNECT WITH FREDDIEWork with Me: https://www.beautifullybroken.world/biological-blueprintWebsite and Store: (http://www.beautifullybroken.world) Instagram: (https://www.instagram.com/freddie.kimmelYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@beautifullybrokenworld Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

This short podcast is from the Bry-X stage of the 7th Annual HVACR Training Symposium: Cheryl Klein's "Surge Protection for HVAC." Cheryl is with DITEK, a veteran-owned company based in Florida, and has extensive knowledge of whole-home surge protection and HVAC-specific surge protectors. HVAC systems may have their lifespans reduced by power surges (tens of thousands of volts within microseconds) or sustained overvoltage. Surge protectors specifically protect the equipment from power surges, though DITEK manufactures products that help manage sustained overvoltage (and undervoltage, which surge protectors CANNOT protect against). Nearby lightning strikes and high voltage from the utility company (especially after undervoltage) are common causes of surges. Everyone in the country has risks of power surges, but some areas are exceptionally high-risk, whether due to utility causes or climate (lightning storms). Degradation is the invisible damage that occurs over time with repeated surges. Destruction can be associated with a specific event, like a direct lightning strike or a blown transformer. Surge protection helps with both; when a surge comes through, the surge protector directs the surge to ground instead of your HVAC equipment. DITEK uses thermally protected MOVs (TPMOVs) to redirect the surge; TPMOVs react to surges and change from a low-impedance state to a high-impedance state, effectively pointing the surges to ground, and only a clamped voltage makes it to the HVAC equipment. However, surge protectors will degrade with each event; DITEK's surge protectors have LEDs indicating their health. NEC 2020 requires surge protection on all dwellings, so many homeowners have whole-home surge protection already installed. Surge protection on the HVAC unit can still be added as an extra layer, which provides better protection for the HVAC system specifically. HVAC surge protection works at the condenser. DITEK's KoolGuard2 (KG2) is a voltage monitor that works on single-phase equipment under 40 continuous amps. It cuts power if the power exceeds or dips too far below the typical voltage, and then it restores power after three minutes. It also does not require programming, but it has a few best practices, such as reducing lead length to improve the clamping voltage and keeping protected and unprotected wires in separate conduits. Ground must also be within code have low enough impedance to redirect the surges effectively; the resistance can only be measured properly with a megohmmeter or clamp meter. DITEK also has three-phase surge protection for commercial equipment and has options for BAS systems.   Learn more about DITEK's products and DITEK University at https://www.diteksurgeprotection.com/.  Have a question that you want us to answer on the podcast?
