In 'Alien: Earth', the Future Is a Corporate Hellscape

Seventeen years ago, Noah Hawley became a father during the Great Recession. If you look at everything he’s written since having children—including the TV series Fargo and Legion—Hawley says it all revolves around the same question every parent faces: “How are we supposed to raise these people in the world that we're living in?” Hawley’s new series, Alien: Earth, which premieres August 12 on Hulu and FX, explores this question even more directly than his previous work.

Little-known leguminous plant can increase beef production by 60% (2022)

The introduction of the legume had the same impact of an annual application of 150 kilos of nitrogen fertilizer per hectare in the pasture. Four-year study shows that the use of Desmodium ovalifolium can reduce time to slaughter by 30% . Reducing how long is taken until the animal slaughter represents less costs for farmers and less greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Legume improves bovine digestion and reduces methane emissions.

Unmasking the Sea Star Killer

Hodin is fascinated by creatures who change form—“I’m even wearing my shirt,” he says, pointing to his T-shirt depicting a folk music festival celebrating metamorphosis. So when The Nature Conservancy asked him to try breeding sunflower stars, Hodin was excited. Sunflower stars go through a series of developmental stages—from eggs to poppy seed-sized larvae that float around for months to juvenile stars that settle on the sea floor and add more arms as they grow.

High costs and thin margins threatening AI coding startups

In February, AI coding startup Windsurf was in talks to raise a big new round at a $2.85 billion valuation led by Kleiner Perkins, at double the valuation it hit six months earlier, sources told TechCrunch at the time. That deal didn’t happen, according to a source familiar with the matter. Instead, news broke in April that the startup planned to sell itself to OpenAI for roughly the same valuation: $3 billion. While that deal famously fell apart, one bigger question remains: If the startup was

The 1090 Megahertz Riddle: A Guide to Decoding Mode S and ADS-B Signals

news.ycombinator.com Junzi Sun 2025-12-06 10:54:34

In the last twenty years, aircraft surveillance has moved from controller-based interrogation to automatic broadcast. The Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast (ADS-B) is one of the most common methods for aircraft to report their state information like identity, position, and speed. Like other Mode S communications, ADS-B makes use of the 1090 megahertz transponder to transmit data. The protocol for ADS-B is open, and low-cost receivers can easily be used to intercept its signals. Many rec

The researchers linked hurricane flood exposure to a 9% increase in risk of death for people over the age of 65 who continued living in the area after landfall.

‘Alien: Earth’ Is Better Than We Ever Dreamed Possible

When the idea was first floated of bringing the iconic Alien franchise to TV, many were skeptical. Films such as Ridley Scott’s 1979 original and James Cameron’s 1986 sequel are all-time classics. Follow-ups, like David Fincher’s 1992 film and Scott’s 2012 return, were also noteworthy for their own reasons. Alien just felt like a franchise that had been very well-explored already and could only be damaged in translation to a different medium. Well, I am elated to report that any skeptics, mysel
