WWW.POLYGON.COMCan Fomantis be shiny in Pokémon Go?Fomantis, the sickle grass Pokémon from Alola, can be found in the wild in Pokémon Go. Yes, Fomantis can be shiny in Pokémon Go! Neither of these Pokémon are particularly meta relevant, but they do have pretty good shinies. Notably you’ll need to remember that you can only evolve Fomantis into Lurantis during the daytime, so don’t hold off on evolving yours, if you wanted to. What is the shiny rate for Fomantis in Pokémon Go? As per old research by the now-defunct website The Silph Road (via Wayback Machine), the shiny rate for Pokémon on a regular day is approximately one in 500. Fomantis is not a confirmed Pokémon that gets a “permaboost” (meaning that it’s a rare spawn and thus gets a boosted shiny rate). What can I do to attract more shiny Pokémon? Not much, unfortunately. It appears to be random chance. Shiny Pokémon catch rates are set by developer Niantic, and they are typically only boosted during special events like Community Days or Safari Zones, or in Legendary Raids. There are no consumable items that boost shiny Pokémon rates. Where can I find a list of available shiny Pokémon? LeekDuck keeps a list of currently available shiny Pokémon. It’s a helpful visual guide that illustrates what all of the existing shiny Pokémon look like. For more tips, check out Polygon’s Pokémon Go guides.0 Σχόλια 0 Μοιράστηκε 90 Views

LIFEHACKER.COMThe Sleep Earbuds I Use Every Night Are $30 Off Right NowWe may earn a commission from links on this page. Deal pricing and availability subject to change after time of publication.I've used earbuds to help me sleep for a while now, but I never expected a company to actually make earbuds specifically for sleeping. Anker's Soundcore Sleep A20 are exactly that: earbuds designed to block out excess noise without pressing uncomfortably against your ear. I've been using them for a year and can't recommend them enough.Right now, these sleep earbuds are on sale for $119.99 (originally $149.99)—that is the lowest price they've been, according to price tracking tools. Soundcore Sleep A20 $119.99 at Amazon $149.99 Save $30.00 Get Deal Get Deal $119.99 at Amazon $149.99 Save $30.00 The Sleep A20 are not active noise canceling earbuds, which is how they're able to have such a small, unobtrusive form factor. Instead, they use the in-ear seal to create a natural noise blocker, which, in my opinion, works well enough to block out sounds. They fit quite comfortably and don't press against your ear when you sleep on your side. Very rarely do I wake up with one of them lost in the covers after falling off during the night, but it does happen occasionally (you can use the Find Device feature, which emits a loud sound through the earbuds). The battery life is 14 hours on sleep mode, which includes sounds from the Soundcore app (think like white noise or relaxing sounds). If you have it in Bluetooth mode, where you can listen to Spotify or whatever you want, it's eight hours, but the charging case gives it a total life of up to 80 hours between plug-ins.The companion app is great, with many useful features for sleeping. You can turn your earbuds off after a set amount of time, have a sleep tracker that records your sleep data, a smart volume feature that increases or decreases in volume depending on the sound in your room, full EQ, and other features.0 Σχόλια 0 Μοιράστηκε 102 Views

WWW.ENGADGET.COMUbisoft just open-sourced its colorblind assistance tool ChromaUbisoft has open-sourced Chroma, the company’s in-house colorblind assistance tool. It’s available for download via GitHub and is described as a "one-stop solution for detecting color blindness-related issues in games." Here’s how it works. It throws a filter over the game screen that simulates various types of color blindness. This allows testers to flag accessibility issues in real time. The tool uses the Color Oracle algorithm and integrates with both single or dual-screen setups. It works with hotkeys and there’s a customizable overlay for adjusting settings. Ubisoft says that applying the filter will not impede game performance. Ubisoft It’s important to note what this software does and who it’s for. It simulates how a person with color blindness will experience a game, allowing devs to take action. It doesn’t fix anything on its own. However, knowing is half the battle as they say. This move by Ubisoft should allow other devs to address these concerns before shipping a game out the door. Ubisoft isn’t the only company that has been widening the availability of accessibility tools. EA recently made a whole bunch of accessibility patents open-source. This included photosensitivity and speech recognition tech.This article originally appeared on Engadget at https://www.engadget.com/gaming/ubisoft-just-open-sourced-its-colorblind-assistance-tool-chroma-184546640.html?src=rss0 Σχόλια 0 Μοιράστηκε 88 Views

WWW.FASTCOMPANY.COMAI+EQ is transforming healthcare, not just for doctorsThe Fast Company Impact Council is an invitation-only membership community of leaders, experts, executives, and entrepreneurs who share their insights with our audience. Members pay annual dues for access to peer learning, thought leadership opportunities, events and more. AI won’t replace doctors anytime soon. Despite the clickbait headlines and the reports of chatbots outperforming doctors on this-or-that clinical task, medicine will always depend—literally and figuratively—on human touch. What’s interesting, though, is how AI seems to be improving that human touch. Thanks to notetaking apps, doctors can stop typing and be more present in the precious minutes they spend with patients. AI-powered workflows are eliminating hours of admin work, easing care team burnout and freeing up clinicians to flex their human expertise where it’s needed most. ChatGPT is even coaching doctors on their bedside manner. Far from replacing them, AI is rehumanizing doctors and the patient experience. The hard work of accessing healthcare This melding of artificial and (human) emotional intelligence—which I call AI+EQ—is unlocking a new golden age in healthcare. The very best doctors and nurses have always had a rare mix of experience, expertise, empathy, and emotional intelligence. But before AI, that secret sauce was near-impossible to bottle up and scale. That’s exactly what we’re doing now. Recent advances in generative AI, building on decades of innovation in machine learning and big data, are putting healthcare’s collective wisdom and horsepower into the hands of care teams everywhere, with far-reaching implications for medical education, clinical practice, and patient care. Here’s the catch, though: The 15 minutes (or less) that people spend with their doctor is a sliver of the overall healthcare experience. The rest of the time is spent in a maze of paperwork, logistics, unanswered questions, and financial stress. Choosing a health plan during open enrollment. Searching for in-network physicians. Deciphering deductibles and copays—and then, a few weeks later, deciphering bills and statements. Sitting on hold with your health plan, waiting in line at the pharmacy, and then waiting months (if you’re lucky) for another 15 minutes with your doctor. This is the hard, frustrating work of accessing and navigating healthcare. It makes people give up, disengage, and delay essential care, which is making us sicker and driving healthcare costs through the roof. Too little EQ AI+EQ is just as critical here as it is in the doctor’s office. AI might be helping doctors become more human, but that will only take us so far if the rest of the system remains inefficient, impersonal, and dehumanizing. People want high-quality healthcare that’s simple, personalized, and fast. Delivering that experience, at scale, will require baking EQ—not just AI—into every layer of the system, from face time with doctors to the vast amounts of data generated by those face-to-face interactions and everything in between. Startups and established stakeholders will say they’re working on it. Health insurers are using AI to streamline claims processing and prior authorization. Navigation vendors are deploying chatbots to steer people to in-network physicians. Point solutions and digital health apps are using nudges to track patients and promote treatment adherence. Everybody—and I mean everybody—is using AI, or claiming to. (Except in this article, which is 100% human.) But as I look across the industry, I see a lot of AI and very little EQ. Be remembered as a person Too much innovation is happening in the same old silos. So much AI firepower is being deployed, and so little of it is connected or working in sync. We’re recreating—this time with chatbots—the same painful experience: filling out forms again and again, ferrying info from your doctor to your insurer (and back), logging into a dozen different apps. People basically now have a healthcare supercomputer on their smartphone, but they still need to introduce themselves to the system over and over, because the back end is as fragmented as ever. The friendliest chatbot in the world can only help you so much if it’s not talking to the other bots. The essence of a positive healthcare experience is feeling seen and heard—and remembered—as a whole person, not as a user ID or a number in a system. When you call to ask about a hospital bill, the person on the phone already knows who you are, and which benefits you have. Your PCP knows your cardiologist just prescribed a new medication. Your diabetes coach knows you have a therapy appointment next week. This type of holistic, integrated care depends on holistic, integrated data and systems—specifically, systems powered by AI and designed with EQ. How to implement AI+EQ What does AI+EQ look like at the systems level? First, it means building platforms and partnerships that break down data silos to thoughtfully (and securely) connect clinical insights, medical and pharmacy claims, info on social and financial context, and the myriad other data points that help us build a three-dimensional picture of individuals. Second, it means making that data visible and available to the entire team—not just doctors and nurses, but also pharmacists, case managers, advocates, support staff, and yes, chatbots—so they’re all looking at the same 3D person and can seamlessly communicate and collaborate. Third, and most important, the whole system needs to be led and overseen by clinicians, partnering with engineers and data scientists to use their collective EQ to ensure that AI models and algorithms are evidence-based, free from bias, informed by human empathy and expertise, and built to deliver optimal clinical and financial outcomes for everyone involved: patients, providers, and purchasers. If we want to create a modern and personalized healthcare experience, the doctor’s office is just the tip of the iceberg. The real transformation will flow from the hard work deep below the surface to ensure that AI and EQ are coming together system-wide to deliver the healthcare experience we humans have all been waiting for.

WWW.YANKODESIGN.COMI Was Wrong – The iPhone 17 Will NOT Bend Thanks To Their Genius RedesignI thought the new iPhone Air was a Bendgate disaster waiting to happen. If the new 17 series’ redesign is true, I could be absolutely wrong. Ever since the iPhone 6, people have just tried bending iPhones. Something about that relentless pursuit of slimness has resulted in most iPhones being fairly foldable, and Apple’s tried really hard to engineer newer iPhones to resist this ability, trying everything from creating new metal alloys to even infusing titanium into the frame. However, the iPhone 17 series has done something past iPhones have never attempted – changing the design altogether by wrapping the metal frame around the back too. The latest prototype glimpsed through Unbox Therapy’s hands-on shows an iPhone that’s ditching its glossy vulnerability for something far more rigid. The rear glass panel – once the canvas of fingerprints and micro-fractures – is now demoted to a thin patch at the bottom. That tiny square exists solely to preserve wireless charging. The rest? Pure sculpted aluminum. Not just a frame. A structural, wrapped, contoured slab of metal that curves seamlessly around the back, swallowing the camera island whole like it’s part of the chassis and not a post-hoc bump. This evolution is far more than cosmetic. It’s a design shift – the likes of which we’ve not seen since the departure of Jony Ive in 2019. The new design transforms the iPhone into a proper unibody construction, adding substantial bend resistance across the mid-section. If that reminds you of the iPhone 6’s infamous “BendGate,” you’re not alone. What’s different here is that Apple seems to be bracing itself – literally – for what could be a generational split between form factors. With the rumored iPhone Air chasing ultrathinness to an almost daring extreme, the 17 Pro Max is positioning itself as the brawnier, more durable sibling. There’s an elegance in how Apple has engineered the aluminum to flow around the camera cluster. It softens the visual weight of the module while functionally reinforcing it. No more raised islands glued onto glass. Instead, you get a surface where camera lenses look punched out of metal – a precision-crafted effect that’s more Leica than Lenscrafters. Even the flash has migrated, nudged across the triangular array for better spatial balance and perhaps to optimize lighting angles in AR or spatial video. On the hardware front, the 17 Pro Max is sure to impress too. Under the hood will be Apple’s new silicon, a chip designed to flex across multi-threaded workloads without draining your battery dry. Pair that with what looks like a marginally larger battery and better thermal dissipation, thanks to the metal body, and you’ve got a phone that performs under pressure – whether you’re editing 4K footage on LumaFusion or stitching AR overlays in real time. Camera upgrades are sure to be significant too. Rumors say that all rear lenses are now 48MP, up from the mix of resolutions in earlier models. The front-facing camera? A sharp 24MP sensor – ideal for sharper video calls or just brutal selfie honesty. Combined with the new layout and sensor improvements, this setup turns the iPhone 17 into a serious imaging device. Apple seems keen to carve out a niche not just for creators, but for those inching closer to immersive media. Obviously, this is all just speculation, as Apple’s still half-a-year away from actually dropping the new iPhone. That being said, they DID ship a couple of tonnes worth of devices from India and China just as the tariff deadline approached. Could these be the new iPhone 17 units? Or will the 17 only ship around August and September, when Apple formally launches the device? Having a product ship that late would also probably affect its baseline price, which some people speculate could easily cross the $2,000 mark. I guess I’m just happier with my old iPhone 15 Pro for another few years… Image Credits: Unbox TherapyThe post I Was Wrong – The iPhone 17 Will NOT Bend Thanks To Their Genius Redesign first appeared on Yanko Design.0 Σχόλια 0 Μοιράστηκε 89 Views
