bleepingcomputer.com Unknown 2025-11-18 00:38:29

Google's Gemini is now testing a new feature called "Projects." This will be similar to OpenAI's Project Feature for ChatGPT. With Projects, you can add files, documents or your code. Then, you can ask Gemini to reference those files in project conversations. Google describes this as a feature where you "start by adding files to the project. Gemini can reference these files in project conversations and use them to generate new documents and code." With Projects, you can group similar tasks to

I made a real-time C/C++/Rust build visualizer

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-11-21 00:06:55

August 13, 2025・6 minute read Many software projects take a long time to compile. Sometimes that’s just due to the sheer amount of code, like in the LLVM project. But often a build is slower than it should be for dumb, fixable reasons. I’ve had the suspicion that most builds are doing dumb stuff, but I had no way to see it. So I’ve been working on a cross-platform tool to help speed up builds (you can try it, see below). It works with any build system or programming language (Not just C/C++).

What to Do When Critical Open Source Projects Go End of Life

news.ycombinator.com Bill Doerrfeld 2025-11-21 22:02:57

Ninety-eight percent of organizations use open source software (OSS) regularly, according to the Linux Foundation. Open source is pervasive. It’s embedded into the fabric of most applications we use in our daily lives. But it’s getting harder to keep up the pace of OSS version deprecations and end-of-life (EOL) cycles. “The life cycle for open source versions is definitely shortening,” Aaron Frost, co-founder and CEO at HeroDevs, which offers long-term support for deprecated open source, told T

Tilf — Pixel Art Editor Tilf (Tiny Elf) is a simple yet powerful pixel art editor built with PySide6. It’s designed for creating sprites, icons, and small 2D assets with essential tools, live preview, undo/redo, and export options. There are several Pixel Art Editors that do the same things and even much more, but many require an account registration or the insertion of an e-mail or have a certain business model.

Consider the massive capital expenditure loss from ghost cities, which represent unoccupied infrastructure.
