Cray versus Raspberry Pi

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-09-11 12:58:29

Please visit the sponsor! Cray versus Raspberry Pi I fondly recall the era when the pinnacle of supercomputing was the Cray 1. Even the shape of this computer was massively different to anything that came before and it was so futuristic that it could have come straight from a scifi movie. While almost all other computers of the 1970s were just a collection of huge rectangular cabinets with blinky lights and perhaps a few tape drives, the Cray 1 looked more like a piece of space-age furnitu

Image by Getty / Futurism Rx/Medicines Broken ice cream machines aren't the only thing bedeviling stalwart fast food chain McDonald's. Financial services firm Redburn Atlantic put the company's stock in the bear category, coinciding with a slumpy week in which it lost about three percent of its value — because analysts are betting that GLP-1 agonist weight loss drugs like Ozempic are going to disrupt the fast food business model, CBS News reports.

Using `make` to compile C programs

news.ycombinator.com Julia Evans 2025-09-11 15:24:48

I have never been a C programmer but every so often I need to compile a C/C++ program from source. This has been kind of a struggle for me: for a long time, my approach was basically “install the dependencies, run make , if it doesn’t work, either try to find a binary someone has compiled or give up”. “Hope someone else has compiled it” worked pretty well when I was running Linux but since I’ve been using a Mac for the last couple of years I’ve been running into more situations where I have to

We found a germ that 'feeds' on hospital plastic – new study

news.ycombinator.com Ronan Mccarthy 2025-09-15 20:01:00

Plastic pollution is one of the defining environmental challenges of our time – and some of nature’s tiniest organisms may offer a surprising way out. In recent years, microbiologists have discovered bacteria capable of breaking down various types of plastic, hinting at a more sustainable path forward. These “plastic-eating” microbes could one day help shrink the mountains of waste clogging landfills and oceans. But they are not always a perfect fix. In the wrong environment, they could cause
