Australia is the skin cancer capital of the world, with 2 in 3 of us diagnosed by age 70. The most used complication on my Apple Watch is the UV index, beating out weather temp, battery etc.

Which is weird because it's pretty straightforward to work out if you need sunscreen or not:

  * Is it any month other than May-August?  
  
  * Is it after 10am or before 4pm?  
  

Probably need some sun screen.

If you have very light skin you might want to increase the timeframe by an hour.

And if you really want to optimise your sunscreen usage and not use it if you don't have to, the real-time UV index from ARPANSA is the way to go (https://www.arpansa.gov.au/our-services/monitoring/ultraviol...).

All other apps simply display the expected UV index given the time of the day and the day of the year.

Sunscreen for the face should just be daily. My dermatologist recommends it even in Berlin in the Winter.

And then, this is most critical, use mineral or at least creamy sunscreen (sprays barely do anything) and put it on a few minutes before sun exposure - not when you start feeling it.

Agree that the UV index is not particularly useful - it's kind of obvious. Still good to know though.

Did a quick search and no-one has flagged a11y/colour/contrast but the animating effect for the brand colour often had a colour contrast around the 1.0 range.

Yeah pretty much didn't care about it for the sake of effect. That's a big no no I know. The website isn't really the focus as the goods in the ruby gem are more of the focus. Consider railsui.com a billboard if you will.

Would love to see the Red Cross partner with someone like you here in Australia. Not affiliated, just a donor. We're not financially incentivised like other countries but there's a big culture here about celebrating the free milkshake and/or sausage roll you get after donating.

Their poor little servers aren't coping well with the attention. The worst is a 1,004kb image so it's not excessively large.

Not sure why you've been downvoted so heavily. That seems like a misuse of the downvote purpose.

But yes, I kind of agree with other commenters here in that maybe teaching absolute respect of a knife/table saw/power tool and its power to maim is a really important lesson that this sidesteps?

At least they cared. I found an enumeration attack on an Australian referral service where phone numbers were keys and it returned way too much personal information. Responsibly disclosed numerous times, LinkedIn contacted employees. Not even acknowledged and at last check, still open vulnerability.

The sad thing is, that at some point they truly get exposed (big leak) and your name might come up because they have nobody else to blame. I wish you the best and hope you have lawyer insurance.

Full disclosure was a thing exactly because of that.

If CNT (Carbon Nanotubes) are displaying similar risk factors to asbestos, what is the scale difference between these? I've never felt so compelled to eat something that could kill me.

I believe the issue with CNTs and asbestos is that once they're in your lungs, your body won't be able to break it down. This is literally made of flour.

I assume it's orders of magnitude better than asbestos obviously, since flour is organic and decomposes, but it still doesn't seem great. If the particulate is this small, it can probably get pretty deep into your lungs and just sit there for a while. I'm no expert, but I don't know what would decompose flour in your lungs, especially if it's going to get deeper being so light and tiny.

Like it's not asbestos, but it's also not air. So maybe nanopasta comes with an MSDS binder.

Bakers have been around for a long time w/ plenty of exposure to airborne flour. I wonder if they tend to have lung issues like similar trades do.

This.

Asbestos is like having glass shards that are so sharp they keep damaging cells and never go away. Constant cellular repair statistically results in cancer.

This spaghetti also reminding me of a scene from the three body problem (trying to avoid spoilers)

We take photos of our kids to track and timestamp anaphylaxis or other medical reasons. Incredibly important at the time, and then when dynamic wallpapers start mixing them in to the roster you desperately want to forget them.

Unfortunately the hit targets are stacked poorly. If I mouse in from the top right the number turns red, otherwise the text turns red.
