Mangrove Restoration Frustration (2021)

news.ycombinator.com Katarina Zimmer 2025-10-17 04:13:14

If any single event was a watershed for conservation of the world's mangrove forests, it was the Indian Ocean tsunami of 2004. The day after Christmas that year, a magnitude 9.1 earthquake thundered along a fault line on the ocean floor with a force that sent waves — some a hundred feet high — surging toward the densely populated coasts encircling the Indian Ocean. The disaster took more than 225,000 lives. In the aftermath of the tsunami, some scientists reported that settlements behind swampy

He apologizes, then explains they’re headed to an Old Spice photo shoot tied to his latest endorsement — a Saquon-branded shampoo and conditioner called “Saquon Soar.” It’s a cinematic image: one of the NFL’s biggest stars juggling dad duty and the demands of a sponsorship.

How we built an interpreter for Swift

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-10-20 17:39:03

Bitrig dynamically generates and runs Swift apps on your phone. Normally this would require compiling and signing with Xcode, and you can’t do that on an iPhone. To make it possible to instantly run your app, we built a Swift interpreter. But it’s an unusual interpreter, since it interprets from Swift… to Swift. One of the top questions we’ve gotten is how it’s implemented, so we wanted to share how it works. To make this more accessible and interesting, we simplified some of the more esoteric

How ‘Hollow Knight: Silksong’ Fans Turned Waiting for Its Release Into a Game

wired.com Megan Farokhmanesh 2025-10-19 20:00:47

Since 2021, Araraura has been a watchdog for the game Silksong. He posts daily clips on his YouTube channel, aptly named Daily Silksong News, for viewers seeking the latest on Team Cherry’s hotly anticipated Hollow Knight sequel. Unfortunately, there hasn’t been much to report.
