GNU Artanis – A fast web application framework for Scheme

news.ycombinator.com Artanis Dev Team 2025-11-02 03:06:29

More seriously, Artanis is written using GNU Guile, one of the best implementations of Scheme language. One day, the folks at GNU were discussing what language they would write the GNU website in - and many chose Python. But I found that strange, because the official extension language of GNU is GNU Guile. And I wondered aloud - why not start a brand new project to provide a web framework written with GNU Guile? To which RMS said, "It's cool, I like this idea." But at that time, it was just an

gizmodo.com Germain Lussier 2025-11-02 03:45:34

The Netflix hit Cobra Kai was the perfect balance of 1980s nostalgia and modern sensibilities. Now, the team behind that show has been tapped to do the same for another popular brand from the decade: Knight Rider. The Hollywood Reporter says that Jon Hurwitz, Hayden Schlossberg, and Josh Heald are in early talks to make a movie based on the hit show, which starred David Hasselhoff as a detective who gets paired with an artificially intelligent car called KITT (which stood for Knight Industries

Google’s AI Weather Model Nailed Its First Major Storm Forecast

gizmodo.com Aj Dellinger 2025-11-02 03:55:30

While generative AI tools that primarily amount to slop generators grab most of the attention in the artificial intelligence space, there are occasionally some actually useful applications of the technology, like Google DeepMind’s use of AI weather models to predict cyclones. The experimental tool, launched earlier this year, successfully managed to provide accurate modeling of Hurricane Erin as it started gaining steam in the Atlantic Ocean earlier this month.

With Starship, SpaceX encounters an obstacle that haunted NASA’s space shuttles

arstechnica.com Unknown 2025-11-02 03:04:13

Eventually, SpaceX wants to catch ships coming back from space with big mechanical arms on the launch pad, similar to the way SpaceX has shown it can recover the rocket's huge Super Heavy booster. This would allow SpaceX to theoretically stack a freshly flown ship on top of a booster right on the launch pad, then quickly refuel it and launch it again. There are plenty of things SpaceX must prove before the company is able to do this. But SpaceX has already demonstrated it can handle some of the

An Astonishing Number of Men Are Dying Because They Refuse to Go to the Doctor

Image by Getty / Futurism Treatments Men appear to be dying disproportionately from preventable diseases and conditions way more than women, and in many cases it's their own damn fault: because they're refusing to go to the doctor until it's too late. In interviews with the New York Times, doctors and public health experts expressed concerns with the state of men's preventative care, which they say many chaps tend to ignore — to their own peril.

AI skeptics are running out of rope to argue Apple isn’t desperately behind

Whenever a new story comes out detailing yet another setback with Apple’s AI initiatives and roadmaps, without fail, someone shows up and asks: “What exactly is Apple behind on?,” or “Catch up?

Marshall just introduced its very first party speaker, the Bromley 750. It looks a whole lot like a guitar amp, which makes sense given the company's pedigree. Also, instrument amps are basically just big speakers anyways. This Bluetooth speaker includes a replaceable battery that allows for more than 40 hours of use before requiring a charge. It produces 360-degree stereophonic sound that Marshall says will "find its way through any crowd." It also features a "sound character knob" that change

A Radiohead song from 1997 is on the Hot 100 charts, thanks to TikTok

Thanks to an unexpected surge in popularity on TikTok, Radiohead now has its fourth-ever song on the Billboard Hot 100: the morosely gorgeous track “Let Down” from the 1997 album “OK Computer.” “Let Down” never broke through to mainstream attention like Radiohead’s “Creep” or “Karma Police,” but it’s by no means a deep cut, like the Pavement B-side “Harness Your Hopes” that went viral due to a quirk in Spotify’s recommendation algorithm.
