Using Claude Code to modernize a 25-year-old kernel driver

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-10-15 16:53:47

As a bit of background, one of my hobbies is helping people recover data from old tape cartridges, such as QIC-80 tapes, which were a rather popular backup medium in the 1990s among individuals, small businesses, BBS operators, and the like. I have a soft spot for tape media; there’s something about the tactile sensation of holding these tapes in my hands that makes the whole process very joyful, even though QIC tapes are notorious for their many design flaws.

Czech cyber agency warns against Chinese tech in critical infrastructure

The Czech Republic's National Cyber and Information Security Agency (NUKIB) is instructing critical infrastructure organizations in the country to avoid using Chinese technology or transferring user data to servers located in China.

In the race to develop artificial intelligence, large technology companies such as Google and Meta are trying to secure massive amounts of electricity to power new data centers. Electric utilities see the prospect of earning large profits by providing electricity to these power-hungry facilities and are competing for their business by offering discounts not available to average consumers.

Sadly, phones with a removable battery are a dying breed, and our options are getting very, very limited in this niche market. Phones with removable batteries are very convenient in a few ways. For starters, it makes it easy to hot swap batteries on the go, so you can carry multiple and switch them if your phone dies mid-day.

Apple’s new generative AI ‘answer engine’ might arrive sooner than we initially thought
