Found this really cool video of an iOS engineer showing real time specular shading based on the lights around you. Look I am not a fan of Liquid Glass in its current instance. However, I am still a fan of technical feats. Apple first introduced this in Apple wallet to cards and esp the Apple Card. Now they’ve made it part of the OS.

Design considerations aside, the technical feat is impressive.

Much like the genetic engineering behind Jurassic Park was impressive.

Gene cloning 🧬

The process:
1. Extract plasmid (circular bacterial DNA)
2. Cut it with restriction enzymes
3. Insert the gene you want to study
4. Transform bacteria with the modified plasmid
5. Bacteria multiply, copying your gene

This technique revolutionized biology — it's how we:
• Study gene function
• Produce medicines (like insulin)
• Create GMO crops
• Develop gene therapies

Simple concept, massive impact.

can use digitised genome data to create ‘blueprints‘ for new genetically engineered organisms. What risks does this pose for ? Where will this “#superconvergence” lead?

"A new Chinese gain of function study created chimeric coronaviruses that can infect human cells and kill mice (up to 100% mortality)."

"The viral infection [and all animal experiments] were performed in a BSL-2 laboratory(!)"

So claims a person on X (formerly Twitter), but following the link to the research paper would appear to support the claims.
