    Amazon seeks FCC approval for 5,105 satellites amid secrecy concerns●# Amazon is asking the # FCC to approve 5,105 massive new # satellites while hiding their orbital debris risk models behMmastodonScienceSpace Policy31013 min ago

    Amazon has asked the US Federal Communications Commission to approve 5,105 additional satellites for its planned broadband constellation, but critics say the company is withholding the orbital debris risk models that would show how the satellites affect space safety. Space policy commentators are calling for full public transparency, arguing a safe orbital environment is a shared resource rather than a corporate asset.

    Ten-year-old CNN beats frontier LLMs at skin cancer diagnosis●A 10-year-old CNN outperforms frontier LLMs for skin cancer diagnosisYhnCultureMusic66925 min ago

    A decade-old convolutional neural network has been shown to outperform today's frontier large language models at diagnosing skin cancer, according to a write-up from the Lynch Lab. The finding challenges assumptions that newer, larger models are automatically better at specialised medical tasks, and is prompting discussion about whether general-purpose LLMs are the right tool for narrow diagnostic problems.

    Researchers report that fire salamanders, the black-and-yellow amphibians known for their toxic skin secretions, emit a previously unnoticed biofluorescent glow. The finding adds fire salamanders to the growing list of amphibians shown to fluoresce under certain light, suggesting the trait may be more widespread in nature than previously thought and raising questions about what purpose the glow serves.

    Google to push foldable app optimization requirements●Google is done asking nicely for foldable app optimization App developers will soon have more incentives to develop wellMmastodonTechnology223 min ago

    Google is moving to require better app optimization for foldable Android devices, ending its softer, incentive-based approach to developers. App makers will soon face stronger incentives—or requirements—to ensure their apps adapt properly to folding screens. The change signals Google's growing focus on the foldable device category, where poorly adapted apps remain a common user complaint as more foldable phones reach the market.
