I deleted my second brain

news.ycombinator.com Joan Westenberg 2026-02-16 14:27:29

Two nights ago, I deleted everything. Every note in Obsidian. Every half-baked atomic thought, every Zettelkasten slip, every carefully linked concept map. I deleted every Apple Note I’d synced since 2015. Every quote I’d ever highlighted. Every to-do list from every productivity system I’d ever borrowed, broken, or bastardized. Gone. Erased in seconds. What followed: Relief. And a comforting silence where the noise used to be. For years, I had been building what technologists and lifehacker

Threads now has a better word filter than Instagram

theverge.com Jess Weatherbed 2026-02-19 05:39:00

Threads has taken another step towards decoupling from Instagram by introducing its own word blocking filters. Instagram head Adam Mosseri announced on Thursday that the Hidden Words setting on Threads includes “newly added custom filters to block words, phrases, and emojis in batches, with optional time limits.” A previous version of Hidden Words was tied to Instagram, meaning you could only mute the same words and phrases across both platforms. This change enables users to tailor what they wa

I Switched from Flutter and Rust to Rust and Egui

This is just a personal experience, there are no absolute truths. Like in any other blog post, a lot of the things you'll read here could be just a skill issue, or legitimate issues. It's up to you to decide. We had an app that had a nice Flutter UI that called Rust binaries. The bindings were generated using flutter_rust_bridge, which is an amazing piece of software. A lot of people have built large and complex apps using this tool. It's crazy how far it can just work, just by running: flutte

Changing one gene can restore some tissue regeneration to mice

arstechnica.com Unknown 2026-02-20 00:09:26

Regeneration is a trick many animals, including lizards, starfish, and octopuses, have mastered. Axolotls, a salamander species originating in Mexico, can regrow pretty much everything from severed limbs, through eyes and parts of brain, to the spinal cord. Mammals, though, have mostly lost this ability somewhere along their evolutionary path. Regeneration persisted, in a limited number of tissues, in just a few mammalian species like rabbits or goats. “We were trying to learn how certain anima

The feature allows you to filter out posts that contain words, phrases, or emojis you don’t want to see in feeds, search, profiles, and replies. Previously, Hidden Words was tied to Instagram, so the filters that you entered would be applied to content on both platforms.

Experience Making a 1-minute AI movie with my 7-year old daughter

Novoloop is making tons of upcycled plastic

Plastic has a recycling problem. Only about 9% of plastic gets recycled, and a majority of that waste comes from single use items like plastic grocery bags. It’s partly a design problem — they’re made to be discarded. But it’s also a technology problem because recycling such films isn’t easy, and the results usually aren’t great. Novoloop says it has developed a way to take those troublesome plastics and turn them into something other companies actually want to buy. The California-based startu
