Sepsis kills more people in American hospitals than heart attacks. 350,000 deaths a year, and the reason is brutally simple: the early warning signs are almost invisible.

A slightly elevated heart rate. A small temperature shift. A lab value drifting in the wrong direction. Each one looks like noise on a busy ward. By the time the pattern is obvious to a human, the patient is hours into a cascade toward organ failure, and every hour of delayed antibiotics raises mortality.

Tampa General built a system on Palantir's Foundry that watches roughly 1,000 inpatients continuously. Vitals, labs, medication records, clinician notes, all scanned in real time for the pattern no single nurse can see across 12 beds at 3am. When risk crosses a threshold, a rapid response team gets paged. Humans still make every treatment decision. The software just compresses detection from hours to minutes.

The results since 2022: overall sepsis mortality cut in half, 48-hour deaths down 68%, length of stay down 30%, roughly 900 lives saved. At one hospital.

Now run the national math. There are about 6,100 hospitals in the US. If even the 500 largest matched these numbers, you'd be looking at tens of thousands of lives a year from a single use case. The treatment for sepsis hasn't changed. Antibiotics and fluids, same as decades ago. The entire gain comes from starting them earlier.

The hardest problem in medicine was never the cure. It was noticing in time.

This is Township 7, South District (T7 SD) and managed as part of East Hancock Township, Hancock County, Maine

Pretty sure only 3 people voted in it in 2016, so the consolidation makes sense for privacy reasons. But it's still super funny

The Social Network is a brilliant film that nailed the power, excitement, and chaos of building something that changed the world.

It's sad the sequel looks like a hardline manifesto involving Bill Burr playing a woke scold, and a deliberate assault on internet freedom.

All the dependents will be mobilized by democrats to the polls like shipping soldiers to Normandy

But if we can RESTRUCTURE (not just cut) these programs to bring them closer to sanity it’ll be the greatest domestic accomplishment since their creation

[noor୨୧ @wottheberry]

when i was in college, my dad started sending me $20 every friday.

not every now and then.

every single friday.

always with the same message:

"for pizza."

i figured it was just one of those dad things.

sometimes i'd actually buy pizza.

sometimes i'd spend it on coffee or laundry or whatever broke college students spend money on.

this went on for almost four years.

after graduation i got a job, moved out, and the friday messages stopped.

a few years later i was home for the holidays and somehow the topic came up.

i laughed and asked him why he was so committed to funding my pizza habit.

he looked confused and said,

"what pizza habit?"

i reminded him about the money.

he just shrugged and said,

"oh. that wasn't for pizza."

apparently when he was in college, there were a bunch of weeks where he skipped meals because he didn't have enough money.

he never told anyone.

not even my mom.

he said he figured if the money was labeled "rent" or "groceries," i'd feel guilty taking it.

but nobody ever turns down pizza.

i don't know why that hit me so hard.

maybe because i never once needed that $20 for pizza.

but there were definitely weeks where i needed it for something.

Another interesting fact:

The pond was specifically designed to sound exactly like the waves of Pacific Ocean with the waves beating every second

And you can’t really see the waves but it totally feels like that!

Accidentally re-inventing “thinking” from first principles

[Benjamin Mayo @bzamayo]

“Set an alarm (pause) *for* 10 AM” is what I said. Siri responded asking me to clarify if I said 10 AM or 4:10 AM. Maybe in this case it was obvious what I meant but pretty clever it has an ability to acknowledge and resolve ambiguities.

Apple Filing Protocol (AFP) is officially dead in macOS 27 after 41 years!!

RIP 1985-2026 🪦💐

Apple designed AFP protocol alongside the AppleTalk networking suite to handle plug-and-play file and printer sharing for early Macintosh computers.

Apple is flat out telling developers to start designing their iPhone apps for widescreen aspect ratios.

This is the biggest hint that iPhone Ultra Fold is coming in September.

Testing Apple’s AirDrop claim

Transferring 3.5 GB video

- iOS 26 took 2 minutes 11 seconds

- iOS 27 took ONLY 41 seconds

That’s freaking 69% faster.. nice
