The Guardian

'People are being more discerning about spending money,' he says. 'People are being more discerning about spending money,' he says. T hey are already packing our groceries and delivering shopping. Now robots are coming to the kebab shop, alongside self-service screens and loyalty apps, as takeaways look for ways to tackle rising costs. German Doner Kebab (GDK), a perhaps surprisingly British-owned chain that has been springing up across the country, has turned to technology to keep its fast food business buzzing in the face of rising costs and tough times on the high street.

RFK Jr. Says Americans Need More Protein. His Grok-Powered Food Website Disagrees

WIRED

RFK Jr. Says Americans Need More Protein. A 30-second Super Bowl ad featuring boxing legend Mike Tyson and paid for by the nonprofit MAHA Center encourages viewers to avoid processed foods and visit Realfood.gov . The government website, which Health and Human Services secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is promoting, provides resources on the administration's new dietary guidelines, released in January, and encourages people to use Elon Musk's AI chatbot Grok to "get real answers about real food." I decided to see how Grok's advice aligns with the administration's recommendations, particularly around protein intake. The new guidelines say to get 1.2 to 1.6 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight per day--more than what was previously advised--while the new inverted food pyramid prominently features steak and other animal products.

Moreover, we utilize amino acid replacement matrices for the diffusion forward process, encoding the biologically meaningful prior knowledge of amino acids from their spatial and sequential neighbors as well as themselves, which reduces the sampling space of the generative process.


Yes, eating carrots can help your eyesight. But it's not a cure-all.

Popular Science

Yes, eating carrots can help your eyesight. The World War II propaganda that touted the veggie wasn't totally wrong, but carrots still won't give you night vision. Carrots' beta-carotene pigment can help support retina health, but the root vegetable still has its limits. Breakthroughs, discoveries, and DIY tips sent six days a week. In a British propaganda poster from World War II, an illustration in shadowy tones captures a dramatic nighttime scene: a woman and young girl peer around a black automobile, as if looking for a quick escape.


Why Are Some Women Training for Pregnancy Like It's a Marathon?

WIRED

Why Are Some Women Training for Pregnancy Like It's a Marathon? A growing legion of "zero trimester" influencers are convincing followers that healthy pregnancies are a choice--and that raw milk, watching sunsets, and pricey specialized courses can help. Three years ago, Esther Rohr and her husband decided to start thinking about pregnancy. The 26-year-old Oregon-based wedding photographer made small but intentional lifestyle changes--going to bed earlier, drinking more water and less alcohol, dialing in her fitness, loading up on protein, and taking supplements like beef organ capsules and Vitamin D3. They started charging their phones in the kitchen for better sleep and unplugging their Wi-Fi at night, because her research suggested it might affect cellular health. Concerned about their exposure to reproductive toxins, Rohr began the slow, painstaking task of swapping out all their synthetic workout clothes, nonstick pans, and scented personal care products that might contain phthalates or other endocrine-disrupting chemicals. She bought an air purifier and hopes to eventually replace their LED bulbs with incandescents, because she worries they might be affecting her circadian rhythm.
