New Smart Glasses Block Out All Real-Life Advertising

futurism.com Unknown 2026-02-22 18:15:24

When you're online, a browser plugin can block all those annoying ads that pop up and clutter up your screen — but unfortunately we can't do that to ads in real life. Yet, at least. That could all change after an enterprising software engineer posted an experiment with a pair of smart augmented reality glasses. When you don a pair of the specs and look at a billboard, or even the label on a food container, a red rectangle pops up to block the offending visual clutter from your view. "It’s stil

Why Go Rocks for Building a Lua Interpreter

news.ycombinator.com Roxy Light 2026-02-18 16:28:01

By Roxy Light I recently needed to build a custom Lua interpreter in Go. The exact reasons aren’t important for this blog post, but neither the reference implementation — which I will be referring to as “C Lua” throughout this article — nor the other open source Go Lua intepreters I could find were a good fit for my needs. Building a Lua interpreter ended up being a rather enjoyable months-long side quest. I’ve had a number of folks ask me to write about the experience since these sorts of proj

According to Climate Central, the US experienced 60% more power outages during the summer seasons between 2014 and 2023 than it did from 2000 to 2009.
