I ported modern Linux to a ten-year-old HTC QWERTY phone as a handheld terminal. I wrote it up here: https://tmzt.github.io/blog/a-modern-port-of-linux-to-a-ten-... You can see the code here: https://github.com/tmzt/linux-stable-msm-dtsi

GUI disk analyzers are great for figuring out what's filling up your laptop/desktop drive. On containers or remote servers, the options are limited to purely text based utilities (e.g. du) or list-centric TUIs (e.g. ncdu) which are usually limited to viewing one directory at a time. I created leaves to fill that gap. Inspired by classic utilities like WinDirStat and KDirStat, it uses a 2-dimensional treemap^1 visualization to show the entire directory hierarchy with proportionally sized rectangl

Google is giving its AI note-taking app a new name. The company announced on Thursday that NotebookLM is becoming Gemini Notebook, but will remain a standalone app even as it integrates more deeply across Gemini and Google Search. Google first revealed Gemini Notebook - then called Project Tailwind - in May 2023 before widely releasing […]

Hi HN, I am co-founder of Kickstage, a software company specializing in solutions for the electrical industry and lately grid operators. We are hiring engineers from different backgrounds, a lot of them software developers with limited experience in the sectors. Deep domain knowledge is key in our industry however, so we are constantly teaching the basics of power flow analysis, active vs reactive power, transmission line properties etc. With Jupyter notebooks and the Python console only, that's

The Tesla driver who fatally struck a woman after crashing into her home "manually overrode" the vehicle's Full Self-Driving (FSD) technology by pressing the gas pedal to 100 percent, the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) confirmed in a preliminary report on Wednesday. After examining the car's electronic data, investigators found that the Tesla Model 3 […]

When people think about data centers, they usually think about servers, GPUs, electricity, and AI. Very few people think about water. That realization is what led me to start building AquaStat . Why AquaStat? Modern data centers consume significant amounts of water for cooling. Depending on the technology, climate, and workload, water usage can vary dramatically from one facility to another. Finding reliable information about that usage, however, is often difficult. Some facilities voluntarily publish sustainability reports. Others release only limited information. In many cases, information is scattered across government documents, environmental reports, local news articles, permits, or community discussions. I wanted to build a platform that could organize this information into something developers, researchers, journalists, and the public could actually use. What AquaStat Is AquaStat is an API-first platform focused on collecting, organizing, and analyzing information related to data center water usage. The long-term vision includes: A developer-friendly REST API OpenAPI documentation API key management A desktop control center A command-line interface Historical tracking Source attribution for collected information Transparent methodologies A modern TypeScript ecosystem Rather than hiding calculations, I want AquaStat to explain where information comes from and how conclusions are reached whenever possible. Technical Goals I'm designing AquaStat around several principles: API First Everything should be accessible through documented APIs before being exposed through a graphical interface. Strong Documentation Documentation should be treated as part of the product, not an afterthought. Reproducible Calculations Whenever AquaStat estimates or derives values, the methodology should be understandable and repeatable. Modern Tooling The project uses a modern TypeScript stack with an emphasis on maintainability, testing, and developer experience. Challenges One of the b

Swatch’s latest MoonSwatch is the Mission to the Moon 1969, a limited-edition model with components crafted from Omega’s 18K Moonshine Gold. To get one, you'll have to join a lottery.
