When Sigterm Does Nothing: A Postgres Mystery

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-08-01 16:43:08

In my opinion, the worst bugs are the ones you decide not to look further into. Maybe the problem only manifests 2% of the time, or when you run the code on a particular brand of toaster. Maybe the customer doesn't supply enough information to begin narrowing down the cause. Maybe you just don't have enough time to track the issue down fully. And everyone eventually moves on. But when you see the same bug strike again months later, you quietly mutter to yourself and wish you'd been persistent

The 2025 Low-Power Computer Vision Challenge: Spurring Innovation for Edge and Mobile Devices

computer.org Enrique Quezada 2025-08-02 00:28:56

Imagine a downtown urban street on a traffic-heavy Saturday night. Now, add a severe snowstorm and an autonomous vehicle that safely navigates it all, despite fogged-up cameras, unpredictable pedestrians in oversized outerwear, streetlights throwing glare off a dozen wet surfaces, and the snow itself, which all but obliterates the visibility of traffic signs and lane markers. A computer vision (CV) system that could make this safe navigation possible would revolutionize not only autonomous

Superman is a box office hit, but the hard part comes next

Over the weekend, DC Studios’ new Superman feature became this year’s third-biggest box-office debut in the US. The movie’s success is a sign that theatergoers might actually not be quite as tired of superheroes as people tend to think, and that’s particularly notable for Warner Bros., given the studio’s plan to build a new cinematic universe of DC Comics adaptations for the big screen.

Watching ‘X-Men’ 25 Years Ago Was a Game-Changing Moment

It’s hard to describe what it was like to sit down, 25 years ago today, to watch X-Men. I was born in 1980 and grew up loving and adoring superheroes. The Christopher Reeve Superman movies were everything to me. Posters and toys for Tim Burton’s Batman films were all over my room. And each week, I’d go to the local comic book shop to pick up new issues of X-Men, X-Force, X-O Manowar, Spawn, and so many others.
