For me it was done as a part of a series of images, all focusing on imaging the injured finger and getting other stuff out of the way. The tech was very particular about how everything was oriented and twisted. Something like this.

Serious answer - I'm not a medical professional, but I've hurt a finger recently. This is one of the standard positions for x-raying a hand. Splays out all the fingers while leaving them supported for stability.

Out of curiosity, did it find a source for those specs that wasn't indexed well elsewhere?

This change doesn't even have anything to do with customers as far as I can tell? Sounds like they pissed off their resellers by cutting them out of deals with their biggest accounts, and are regretting burning all those bridges.

This is a valuable interpretation of quantum computing. I appreciate it leading with a "so what" that so often gets lost in the fundraising hype surrounding any journalism in the space.

Here's a link to the actual paper, free to read. Notably, the paper starts with the assumption that other studies have already identified a link between environmental factors and heart disease. The focus is on how useful it is to collect that data through street view analysis as opposed to say sending someone out to survey a neighborhood. Also if image analysis can identify interesting environmental factors that researchers may not have identified previously. I can't comment on their statistics, but they at least claim to be looking for the environmental affect by accounting for age, sex, race, income, and education.

Doesn't look like it, from their docs:

Non-goals

Patching. Difftastic output is intended for human consumption, and it does not generate patches that you can apply later. Use diff if you need a patch.

It worked great for me years ago, but all the US-based banks I use have since killed off their OFX Direct Connect programs.

In case you are unaware, make sure to override DNS on any web browsers or other programs that might be skipping OS configured DNS servers to use hard-coded DNS over HTTPS servers.

If you're running your own DNS resolver you can hint this to some applications in your network via a canary domain

I love how distinctive the art style is, but also how the gameplay rewards you for paying attention to the world and design.

Cool news, I hope it's able to be reproduced!

I appreciate this approach to science writing. Gives context and conveys excitement about the science being done, without resorting to hyperbole about how this is guaranteed to change the world as we know it. And very well distilled for someone like me with no background in materials science!
