SURVEYS, STUDIES & SUCH
So-called “eye floaters” may not be as harmless as we’ve been led to believe. A new study by researchers in the Netherlands found that while flashes of light have been treated as warning signs, floaters, especially when they appear suddenly in large numbers, could also signal serious problems such as retinal detachment. About 1 in 5 patients with many floaters had a tear or detachment, rising to nearly 1 in 3 when flashes were also present. The findings suggest primary care doctors should take sudden floaters more seriously, though in most cases they are still harmless and linked to normal aging.

Don’t expect to see Henry Winkler reprise ‘Fonzie’s’ moves on “Dancing With the Stars”. After reposting a decades-old “Happy Days” dance marathon scene, Winkler received a public offer from William Shatner to help secure him a spot on “Dancing With the Stars” Season 35. Shatner, who is friends with former DWTS host Tom Bergeron, joked that Winkler could still pull off the moves. Winkler, who is 80, quickly declined the offer with the message, “Love to you but NO dancing thank you.” LINK: https://tinyurl.com/mscezv6n
Rapper Lil Tjay has been arrested and booked after allegedly being involved in a fight prior to Offset being shot Monday night. Tjay was booked into Florida’s Broward County Jail for misdemeanor disorderly conduct and held on a $500 bond. Offset, best known for being a member of hip-hop group Migos, was shot near the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Hollywood FL. He is said to be “fine” and is “currently at the hospital receiving medical care,” according to reports. Migos disbanded a year after the fatal shooting of Takeoff at the age of 28 in Houston, Texas in 2022.

OF THE DAY
Anthropic accidentally exposed its robot’s DNA. The AI giant mistakenly leaked part of the internal source code for Claude Code (think: the blueprint for how it’s built), calling it “a release packaging issue caused by human error, not a security breach.” The code spread rapidly across GitHub, a popular platform for developers, prompting Anthropic to issue 8,000+ copyright takedowns.
Remember that email address you created as a kid – the one with a cute, chaotic, or slightly embarrassing username you thought was amazing at the time? Yeah…turns out it followed you into adulthood, job applications and all. Me? Same. But now, Google has introduced a long-awaited update to Gmail, allowing users in the US to change their email address, which wasn’t previously possible. The process is straightforward: users can update their “account username” through settings. However, changes are limited to once per year, so it’s worth thinking through. The feature is useful for people seeking a more professional address or reflecting a name change. Importantly, old emails and messages aren’t lost, and messages sent to the previous address will still arrive. The option will be gradually made available worldwide.

WEIRD NEWS
A rare cushion from a Titanic lifeboat is expected to sell for up to £180,000 (US $225,000) at auction in England on April 18. Made of canvas and still bearing its original lifeboat plaque, the rare item was used by survivors who were rescued by the ship Carpathia. The cushion has a well-documented history, traced back to a victim’s friend who purchased it after the disaster. Passed down through generations, it’s now considered a unique collector’s piece and a remarkable artifact from the 1912 tragedy. It is being sold alongside an original length of rope from the Titanic.
