As large engineering efforts go towards improving the resolution of mobile, augmented reality (AR), and virtual reality (VR) displays, it is important to know the maximum resolution at which further improvements bring no noticeable benefit. This limit is often referred to as the retinal resolution, although the limiting factor may not necessarily be attributed to the retina. To determine the ultimate resolution at which an image appears sharp to our eyes with no perceivable blur, we created an experimental setup with a sliding display, which allows for continuous control of the resolution. The lack of such control was the main limitation of the previous studies. We measure achromatic (black-white) and chromatic (red-green and yellow-violet) resolution limits for foveal vision, and at two eccentricities (10° and 20°). Our results demonstrate that the resolution limit is higher than what was previously believed, reaching 94 pixels per degree (ppd) for foveal achromatic vision, 89 ppd for red-green patterns, and 53 ppd for yellow-violet patterns. We also observe a much larger drop in the resolution limit for chromatic patterns (red-green and yellow-violet) than for achromatic patterns. Our results provide quantitative benchmarks for display development, with implications for future imaging, rendering, and video coding technologies.

Can a college campus accurately assess its antisemitism problem without talking to Jews?

That’s the question facing the University of Pittsburgh, where an internal working group on campus antisemitism recently published a report that did not include, nor appear to have solicited, the perspectives of the school’s estimated 1,400 Jewish students — nor any other members of the campus Jewish community beyond the group itself.

Apparently they didn’t want to be confused by facts.

Newsbusters.

As they do.

We’ve noted California Democrat gubernatorial candidate Xavier Becerra has lied repeatedly about his life story, for example, announcing in a September 30 CNN debate that his parents “came to this country with $12, and they settled in California.” He also told Ana Navarro his father came to America in his 20s with $12 in his pocket. But an obituary said his father was born in Sacramento.

…

Later, they get it right — after getting it wrong twice: “Mr. Becerra’s father was born in Sacramento, and then moved back to Mexico as a child before returning to the United States. Though Mr. Becerra has not focused much on Latino issues during the governor’s race, he has invoked his family history at almost every public appearance.”

This is the whole point — that Becerra is lying in all these invocations. It’s still there on Becerra’s campaign website: “Two immigrants with 12 dollars and a dream. Come to California in pursuit of a better life.” Remember this when they lecture about campaign misinformation.

1Remember, O LORD, what is come upon us: consider, and behold our reproach.

2Our inheritance is turned to strangers, our houses to aliens.

3We are orphans and fatherless, our mothers are as widows.

4We have drunken our water for money; our wood is sold unto us.

5Our necks are under persecution: we labour, and have no rest.

After “defund the police” sparked a political backlash in 2020, Democratic candidates largely stopped using the slogan, but the movement behind it has hardly gone away.

Before you can defund the police, you first have to convince the public that the police themselves are the problem.

In New York City, that is precisely what the Democratic Socialists of America are trying to do. They have turned a federal immigration shooting into a campaign against the Big Apple’s own police department.

On Oct. 8, ICE agents shot and wounded Oscar Belgal during an attempted arrest in the Marble Hill section of Manhattan. Belgal had a prior conviction for grand larceny and was facing a separate drug charge. His 5-year-old son was in the car.

The NYPD had no role in the operation. Its officers arrived afterward and rushed Belgal to the hospital.

But that did not prevent the socialists from seizing on the incident to bash New York’s finest. Their response? Demand that Mayor Zohran Mamdani fire Police Commissioner Jessica Tisch.

A Michigan health care organization has received tens of millions of dollars in government grants despite donating to a political nonprofit that targets Republican state lawmakers through ad campaigns.

According to recent nonprofit grant disclosures, the Michigan Health & Hospital Association represents $22.3 million in government grants in the 2025 fiscal year and has annual revenue of $62 million.

However, the organization’s tax filings show that it has donated at least $1.15 million to the Michigan Citizens for Better Health, a politically active nonprofit that has spent $2.49 million in advertising targeting seven Republican state lawmakers in Michigan House districts.

2024 tax filings also show that the politically active nonprofit gave $100,000 to a Michigan Democratic Committee administrative account.

The nonprofits’ opposition to Republicans comes after the state Speaker of the House, Matt Hall, questioned hospital pricing practices and called for greater accountability in the health care industry. The speaker’s questions arose after state House Democrats advocated for the passage of the 340B program, which would offer hospitals and medical patients discounted prices, but fails to specify how hospitals would adequately demonstrate that the financial benefits reach each patient.

The nonprofit has previously defended the 340B program, arguing that it increases health care access and offers essential hospital services.

Michigan Citizens for Better Health and Michigan Health & Hospital Association did not respond to the Daily Signal’s request for comment.

Folders is a non-textual language, where code is expressed in containment and order alone. The names of the folders are ignored, apart from alphabetical ordering. In other words, they are pure ordered trees.

Inspired by the Whitespace language, Folders is devoted to the idea of dematerialized code. It began with the question What is more empty than a file with no visible text? The empty folder is clutter, an appendage with no purpose. In git, it is ignored entirely (for this reason, it is suggested that Folders programs put .gitignore files in their deepest reaches).

Folders began as a Windows language. In Windows, folders are an even more extreme measure of emptiness: they take up no disk space at all. For proof, create 352,449 folders and get properties on it. In this way, Folders offers not only a dematerialized approach to code but also infinite storage capacity. Keep all your data encoded in folder names and never worry about running out of space again.

For those who use other operating systems, the emulator below gives some of the experience of how Folders manages data and code.

A Center City woman was arrested after allegedly refusing to move out of the path of a delivery robot.

The confrontation was captured on video and has since drawn online attention.

Philadelphia police said officers responded to the 1200 block of Filbert Street after witnesses reported a disturbance involving Carolyn Marvin and an Uber delivery robot near Reading Terminal Market.

According to police, Marvin repeatedly blocked the robot’s path and ignored multiple commands from officers to move.

She was arrested and charged with disorderly conduct.

“I know they’re taking the jobs of human delivery workers and so, I have been protesting them whenever I saw them by standing in front of them and preventing them from going forward,” Marvin said.

He certainly seems perfectly integrated with modern German culture.

An African man, who was described as “perfectly integrated,” is on trial in Bonn on charges connected to the strangling murder of his wife, whom he then dismembered. The woman’s remains were later found in several locations across Germany, according to court proceedings.

Asmerom G., 42, an Eritrean national, faces the charges in Bonn Regional Court in North Rhine-Westphalia. The case stems from events in mid-November 2025 involving his wife, Weghata A., 32. The couple had married in Ethiopia in 2019, and she arrived in Germany in 2024 through family reunification.

The defendant allegedly met his wife, 32-year-old Weghata A., inside his car, where they began arguing on their way back from a church visit. According to Bonner Generalanzeiger newspaper, Asmerom G. later told police that his wife told him their 3-month-old girl was not his biological child. He reportedly could not remember what happened next.

Yeah,  right.

The American Mind.

The Obama Presidential Center, located on Chicago’s South Side, opened in June 2026, nine years and five months after Barack Obama’s term in office concluded. The politicians who build these centers force themselves to run one final fundraising gauntlet, not to finance an election campaign but to leave behind an edifice that makes an enduring case for their probity, sagacity, and historical importance.

What sets Obama apart is that he began publicly discussing the greatness he hoped for prior to occupying, winning, or seeking the nation’s highest office. “My attitude about something like the presidency is that you don’t want to just be the president,” Barack Obama told journalist Jacob Weisberg in 2006. “You want to change the country. You want to make a unique contribution. You want to be a great president.” Later in the interview he said, “There are, what, maybe 10 presidents in our history out of 40-something who you can truly say led the country? And then there are 30 who just kind of did their best.”

At the time, having been elected to the U.S. Senate in 2004 after serving eight years in the Illinois state legislature, Obama was still a Washington, D.C. newcomer. The author of The Audacity of Hope (2006) lived up to his book’s title in October 2006, during an appearance on NBC’s Meet the Press. “When I think about great presidents, I think about those who transform how we think about ourselves as a country in fundamental ways,” Obama said. Specifically, “they transformed the culture” rather than “simply promoted one or two particular issues.”

By that measure, Trump is one of the greatest U.S. Presidents of all time.

Notably absent from the latter takes, however, were claims that Obama had fulfilled the lofty expectations he had set before being elected. His admirers, rather, had long since concluded that he was a capable leader but not a world-historical figure. Jacob Weisberg, reflecting in 2017 for Slate on the career of the young politician he had interviewed eleven years before, wrote that Obama’s “legacy of integrity, eloquence, and patient commitment” qualified him as an “inspirational” president. But not a “transformational” one.

He was a legend in his own mind.

Quillette.

On 24 September, a self-described founder and “adviser to CEOs” posted on LinkedIn about Gucci and Dior withdrawing their handbags from the Australian department store David Jones. After describing the store’s financial difficulties, she suggested that David Jones’s female chief executive was experiencing the “glass cliff.” The “glass cliff” refers to the idea that, having broken through the glass ceiling, women are disproportionately appointed to lead failing organisations, where they are most likely to be blamed when things go wrong.

“What on earth does the management’s gender have to do with it?” asked fellow LinkedIn user Chris Bradley, a senior partner at McKinsey and a director of the McKinsey Global Institute (whom I interviewed for Quillette’s YouTube channel in July).

It was a relatively innocuous question. But the ensuing debate would have a cascade of consequences. Within three weeks, Bradley had been stripped of his directorship and other leadership responsibilities at McKinsey, and had his face plastered across Bloomberg, the Australian Financial Review, The Sydney Morning Herald, the New York Post, Fast Company, and other international publications. Meanwhile, Julia Carreon and Shannon Nutter, whose new book had been recommended in the original LinkedIn post, enjoyed an unexpected burst of publicity.

In Australia, a policy debate has broken out following the federal government’s release of its long-promised internet regulation, the digital duty of care. The stakes may be nothing less than the future of freedom on the internet.

The proposed law, an amendment to the existing Online Safety Act 2021, would impose a broad obligation on almost all online services to protect all users, not just children, from harmful content and features, and to manage “reasonably foreseeable risks.”

The government has presented its motivations as being consumer choice and safety. At a press conference launching a draft of the proposed law, Prime Minister Anthony Albanese declared the digital duty of care a “sensible, pragmatic, practical reform” that “is not about giving government control [but] about giving people control.” Communications Minister Anika Wells likened the measure to other kinds of consumer protections: “The same way that we have safety standards for cars, for food, for appliances, Australia is setting basic standards for the online tools and online services within our digital duty of care.”

Thank God for the First Amendment.

Politico, a Voice of the Crust.

At a moment when populist candidates and anti-billionaire sentiment are surging nationally, a campaign to tax the assets of California’s billionaires is faltering.

Opponents are hammering the airwaves with ads portraying the tax as an economic wrecking ball, and the measure’s poll numbers have steadily eroded. Multiple surveys last month found it drawing only a narrow plurality, with support in the mid-40s — a warning sign for a campaign that needs to expand its coalition.

Ballot initiative veteran Chris Lehman pointed to one telling shift: Independents now oppose the wealth tax while supporting a separate tax measure for public schools. That, he said, “should’ve rang every alarm bell on Earth.”

“The trendlines from the polling I’ve seen are all looking bad for the yes side,” said Lehman, who is not working for either campaign. “They’re all looking good for the no side.”

A labor union’s proposal to offset federal health care cuts with a one-time, 5% tax on the state’s fewer than 300 billionaires has convulsed California politics from the moment it was filed late last year. Now, as ballots are hitting voters’ mailboxes, Proposition 40’s supporters are getting knocked back by powerful headwinds — including an opposition alliance comprising some of the state’s most powerful political players and richest residents.

The Department of Justice is suing California after state officials failed to comply with a 48-hour ultimatum to review a list of suspected noncitizen voters and set aside their ballots pending citizenship verification.

On Tuesday, acting Deputy Attorney General R. Trent McCotter sent letters to California Secretary of State Shirley Weber and Los Angeles County Registrar-Recorder Dean Logan, demanding action on a federal list of potential noncitizens.

The DOJ instructed officials to segregate ballots already returned, stop sending ballots to individuals on the list until their citizenship was verified, and refrain from counting ballots pending verification.

“Allowing noncitizens to vote cancels citizen votes,” McCotter wrote, according to a letter obtained by NBC News.

Gov. Gavin Newsom took to X, calling the demand “dangerous nonsense.”

About a dozen girls on a Washington state high school cross-country team forfeited a race Tuesday rather than compete against a male runner who switched from the boys team to the girls team mid-season.

Footage of the meet between Camas High School and Battle Ground High School in southwestern Washington shows the starting signal sounding and some runners beginning the race while the protesting girls walk forward before leaving the course.

“I don’t see how it’s OK to discriminate against my daughter and the daughters of everyone else that is trying to fairly compete,” Kevin Burns, whose daughter Holly led the protest, told OutKick.

Last month, a Camas sophomore male switched to the girls team midseason. After finishing 76th in a boys race, he has since won a varsity girls meet and placed second in two others, Outkick reported. The story has gained national attention, with teammates and opponents staging protests.

Camas School District Superintendent John Anzalone said the girls will not be penalized for refusing to compete.

“The girls are entitled to handle this however is best for them, and I was at the meet and it was peacefully done,” he told Outkick. “This was really about supporting and providing that space for the girls who did walk off to do so and not feel any repercussions.”

American taxpayer dollars were being used to prop up leftist candidates in the Western Hemisphere under former President Joe Biden, a top Brazilian politician who is now seeking refuge in the United States from incarceration under his country’s socialist government, told the Daily Signal on Wednesday.

Eduardo Bolsonaro, the son of former Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro, who is now imprisoned, and brother of current presidential candidate Flávio Bolsonaro, made his remarks after eight countries in the region elected conservative candidates for president since Secretary of State Marco Rubio defunded the U.S. Agency for International Development in 2025.

“Absolutely, after my dad left the presidency, there was an increase in American money via USAID, NED (The National Endowment for Democracy), and the Atlantic Council for Brazil- money that belongs to the American taxpayer. We are talking about $300 million Brazilian Reais ($60 million USD). Now we need to combat the misinformation that the money helped raise.

“For example, we know that at least $5 million USD reached Brazil in 2022 to create these agencies that combat any sort of public criticism of the socialist government, which these agencies referred to as ‘right-wing misinformation,’” Bolsonaro continued.

At 23, Emil Barr is already a millionaire building a business in Columbus, Ohio. But San Francisco’s investors and AI scene caught his eye—enough that the Flashpass founder told Fortune he signed a lease to move there about a year ago.

He wouldn’t owe the tax under the current proposal, but fears it could pave the way for taxes on millionaires like him.

“I think it was less of a matter of immediate finances,” Barr told Fortune. Instead, he pointed to what he described as California’s “anti-entrepreneurial” political rhetoric.

The stark difference in media treatment a worse average inflation rate under Biden received vs. the Armageddon-level coverage a retrospectively tamer inflation situation under Trump got was first exposed via an analysis conducted by MRC Business and CNSNews.

Now, just before the midterm elections this November, the tale of two inflation rates just got worse for the furiously spinning partisan journalists who covered them.

Using Bureau of Labor Statistics data, MRC Business and CNSNews researchers analyzed inflation rates across the seven-month midterm election season span of the Iran War during President Donald Trump’s second year (March 2026—September 2026). For comparison, the data was then juxtaposed to the same timeframe during the midterm election season during President Joe Biden’s second year (March 2022 — September 2022). As MRC previously revealed, the disparity was massive, especially in light of the “transitory” media narrative voters were getting under Biden vs. the doom-and-gloom circling the Trump administration now.

An appeals court Wednesday rejected California’s mandate that federal immigration agents wear identification, asserting it violates the Supremacy Clause of the Constitution.

California’s No Vigilantes Act, signed by Gov. Gavin Newsom last year, requires nonuniformed law enforcement officers to display their agency and name or badge number during arrests, detentions, and crowd control enforcement. The law, aimed at regulating Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents, established misdemeanor penalties for noncompliant agents.

The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals reversed a district court ruling upholding the law.

“The Supremacy Clause prohibits States from directly regulating federal operations even when regulating state operations in the same manner,” 9th Circuit Judge Mark Bennett, a Donald Trump appointee, wrote for the majority.

California contends the law was permissible under the Supremacy Clause since it didn’t exclusively interfere with federal operations.

However, the 9th Circuit determined even minimal interference is a state directly regulating federal activity.

Four of America’s largest banks relied on the Southern Poverty Law Center in decisions affecting conservative and religious organizations, according to a newly released federal debanking report.

The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency report, released Wednesday, details instances involving JPMorgan Chase, Wells Fargo, PNC Bank, and TD Bank, all of which referenced the SPLC while denying loans to organizations or closing their accounts. The SPLC‘s map of hate groups lists some mainstream conservative and Christian groups alongside Klan chapters, due to the groups’ views on marriage, immigration, critical race theory, or opposition to radical Islam.

“No American should be locked out of the banking system for being conservative or Christian,” House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer, R-Ky., told the Daily Signal. “Reports that major financial institutions relied on the Southern Poverty Law Center’s politically motivated labels to deny services to conservatives are deeply troubling and demand answers.”

Critics have long argued that the SPLC’s accusations have real-world consequences—including debanking.
