Cities obey the laws of living things

news.ycombinator.com Elena Kazamia 2025-10-08 17:31:01

Who would disagree with Dickens that London’s green spaces are the city’s “lungs?” A city is an animal that sleeps, although some never do, like New York City or Hong Kong. All cities are creatures of a sort. Some have multiple “faces” they present to the world, most have a “beating heart” where the action unfolds, and it is a rare city that lacks a dark “underbelly.” The analogy of city as living organism is so established, in fact, that it has crossed over into the realm of scientific inquiry

Anthropic is endorsing SB 53

Anthropic is endorsing SB 53, the California bill that governs powerful AI systems built by frontier AI developers like Anthropic. We’ve long advocated for thoughtful AI regulation and our support for this bill comes after careful consideration of the lessons learned from California's previous attempt at AI regulation (SB 1047). While we believe that frontier AI safety is best addressed at the federal level instead of a patchwork of state regulations, powerful AI advancements won’t wait for cons

E-paper display reaches the realm of LCD screens

news.ycombinator.com Matthew S. Smith 2025-10-10 23:57:35

E-paper displays are prized for their readability and low power use, but they’ve long been dismissed as too slow for everyday computing. Modos, a two-person startup with open-hardware roots, thinks it has cracked part of that problem with a development kit capable of driving an e-paper display at refresh rates up to a record 75 hertz. The Modos Paper Monitor and Dev Kit, now available for crowdfunding on Crowd Supply, combines standard e-paper panels with an open source FPGA-based display cont

Wednesday actor Owen Painter recently sat down with Vulture to discuss the human element he brought to his performance as Slurp the zombie—and of course, what it was like eating the disembodied Professor Orloff (Christopher Lloyd)’s brain. As Painter stated, “I was told to act out ‘You’ve been sitting for a thousand years and your voice box doesn’t work, and water’s going to fix that, so you should have a glass of water across the room, but some stuff is in your way.’ I had so much fun messing

David F. Sandberg Will Direct the 756th ‘Amityville Horror’ Movie

First came the very real massacre of the DeFeo family by one of their own, in 1974. Then, in 1977, came the best-selling book chronicling the ghostly terrors experienced by the Lutzes, the next family to occupy the DeFeo’s Long Island Dutch Colonial Revival with those distinctive eye-shaped windows. Then came the 1979 movie based on the book—by which time the haunting claims were being called into question. But who cares if The Amityville Horror is a hoax if it continues to fascinate audiences?

Apple’s chunky old MagSafe Battery Pack was beloved by a subset of iPhone owners, and now the company is bringing it back and slimming it down for the iPhone Air. I took a first look at the battery pack this afternoon, and it has a significantly slimmer design than the old version. This version of the battery pack is thinner and longer, stretching as far across the back of the phone as it can before bumping into the camera bar.

The new device announced on Tuesday is thinner and lighter than other models, at 5.6mm with a 6.5-inch display.
