At least a 256x256x256mm print volume. Needs to be enclosed or enclosable. Need to be able to print with more durable, temperature/chemical resistant materials such as PC/Nylon/ABS or infused materials. I do not need to print multi material models. I would prefer something that doesn't phone home and can work offline. Opensource firmware/software and repairability are important. I am ok assembling the machine and learning how to dial it in.

Ask HN: Is anyone else sick of AI splattered code

Between code reviews, and AI generated rubbish, I've had it. Whether it's people relying on AI to write pull request descriptions (that are crap by the way), or using it to generate tests.. I'm sick of it. Over the year, I've been doing a tonne of consulting. The last three months I've watched at least 8 companies embrace AI generated pip for coding, testing, and code reviews. Honestly, the best suggestions I've seen are found by linters in CI, and spell checkers. Is this what we've come to? M

Apple Photos app corrupts images

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-09-26 20:07:44

The Apple Photos app sometimes corrupts images when importing from my camera. I just wanted to make a blog post about it in case anyone else runs into the problem. I’ve seen other references to this online, but most of the people gave up trying to fix it, and none of them went as far as I did to debug the issue. I’ll try to describe the problem, and the things I’ve tried to do to fix it. But also note that I’ve (sort of) given up on the Photos app too. Since I can’t trust it to import photos fr

Fiverr, the online marketplace for freelancers, announced that it is laying off about 250 full-time staff members as part of an effort to transform itself into an “AI-first company.” The layoffs will affect about 30% of the company’s staff and are part of what CEO Micha Kaufman called a “painful reset” in a message to his staff, which he also posted on X—though certainly one that will be more painful for the workers losing their jobs than for him.

Ten years after selling Periscope to Twitter, startup's co-founder raises $40 million for Macroscope

cnbc.com Jordan Novet 2025-09-27 06:00:01

It's been a decade since Kayvon Beykpour sold Periscope to Twitter for a reported $100 million, allowing the social media site to jump into livestreaming. Twitter shuttered Periscope in 2021, and the parent company, now called X and owned by Elon Musk, gravitated to a live events product called Spaces. Meanwhile, Beykpour, who spent seven years at Twitter after the acquisition, is back with Macroscope. He said on Wednesday that he's raised $40 million from venture investors, including GV (form

For many hopeful entrepreneurs, founding a successful company is a ticket to the top, the lofty promise of fame and fortune. Yet for a growing number of up-and-coming AI executives, a successful tech startup is the end in itself — not a step toward luxury, but a rejection of it. As the Wall Street Journal reports, the newest class of young founders flocking to the Bay Area are eschewing the frivolities enjoyed by their peers in favor of a proudly minimalist, monk-like existence.

Unprecedented ‘Einstein Cross’ Reveals Fifth Ghost Image and a Dark Matter Surprise

When gravity—an invisible yet ubiquitous force—bends and distorts light from distant galaxies, Earthbound observers get a rare glimpse of elusive cosmic phenomena. And the weirder the glitch, the more insightful the finding, as a team of astronomers recently discovered. These glitches are formally referred to as Einstein Crosses. As light from a distant galaxy travels toward our observatories, the gravitational force of galaxies closer to us bends that light, creating an image of four bright do

A New Island Has Popped Up in Alaska

Glaciers along the coastal plain of southeastern Alaska are rapidly retreating, spilling meltwater into expanding proglacial lakes. One such lake—fed by the receding Alsek Glacier—has grown so much that it transformed a small mountain into a new island. The Alsek Glacier once enveloped this rocky mound—known as Prow Knob—near its terminus. Over the past 40 years, both of the glacier’s arms have retreated more than 3 miles (5 kilometers), creating Alsek Lake. Landsat images captured in 1984 and
