glow, speed, fraud, and warming

My eagle landed on a general’s tent before battle.

1. All living things emit faint light — could biophotons diagnose disease?
2. Planet warming at 0.35°C per decade since 2015 — nearly double prior rate
3. VC-backed startups commit more fraud — researchers think they know why
4. San Francisco as one giant isometric pixel painting
5. Are AI models now fast enough that speed beats intelligence? ~100 tok/s as the new 100ms
6. Why modern headlights blind oncoming drivers — the engineering trade-off nobody fixed
