news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-10-02 05:58:20

Mapping to the PICO-8 palette, perceptually Given a palette and an image, how would you map each pixel to a color in the palette? In this article we’ll investigate how an advanced perceptual color space (CAM16-UCS) compares to simpler alternatives. For this experiment I chose a somewhat strange cropped still from the Big Buck Bunny short and the PICO-8 fantasy console’s 16-color palette: A simple way to map pixels to palette colors is to compute the Euclidean distance between each pixel and p

Behind the Scenes of Bun Install

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-10-05 21:39:29

Running bun install is fast, very fast. On average, it runs ~7× faster than npm, ~4× faster than pnpm, and ~17× faster than yarn. The difference is especially noticeable in large codebases. What used to take minutes now takes (milli)seconds. These aren't just cherry-picked benchmarks. Bun is fast because it treats package installation as a systems programming problem, not a JavaScript problem. In this post we’ll explore what that means: from minimizing syscalls and caching manifests as binary,

Crispr Offers New Hope for Treating Diabetes

Crispr gene-editing technology has demonstrated its revolutionary potential in recent years: It has been used to treat rare diseases, to adapt crops to withstand the extremes of climate change, or even to change the color of a spider’s web. But the greatest hope is that this technology will help find a cure for a global disease, such as diabetes. A new study points in that direction.
