Lots of good info here: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11771116/

Look up some of the more recent treatments - many of which will get better with time. That's why detecting Alzheimer's early is a big deal https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lecanemab

there are treatments that can help slow progression, especially if it's found early.

What's also bizarre is that there is hardcore porn on Twitter and that seemingly is ok on these app stores??? As far as I know, that's the only app on each store that has such an abundance of that content.

not just that but you can easily find and see hardcore porn on Twitter, which against Apple and Google's own rules on the app store. But Musk gets a free pass, of course because double standards

this isn't surprising. as the article mentions, this has been going on since at least 2016. You can expect influence campaigns to be on every social network and comment section.

The problem is that these companies do nothing about this.

hn1986 — Tue, 02 Sep 2025 20:41:45 +0000

As a data engineer, the current tools for data seem lacking, even when coupled with MCP servers.

I'm not sure if a separate IDE is the solution but glad to see additional development in this space.

YCombinator backed too https://www.ycombinator.com/companies/nao-labs

Edit: and I see that they launched on here already. Ignore my post

excellent tool and easy to get started.

on win11, i installed ffmpeg using winget but it's not detecting it. running ffmpeg -version works but the app doesn't detect it.

one thing, how can we reduce the number of notifications received?

i like the system prompt option too.
