Mapping to the PICO-8 palette, perceptually

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-10-02 10:58:20

Mapping to the PICO-8 palette, perceptually Given a palette and an image, how would you map each pixel to a color in the palette? In this article we’ll investigate how an advanced perceptual color space (CAM16-UCS) compares to simpler alternatives. For this experiment I chose a somewhat strange cropped still from the Big Buck Bunny short and the PICO-8 fantasy console’s 16-color palette: A simple way to map pixels to palette colors is to compute the Euclidean distance between each pixel and p

Texas banned lab-grown meat. What’s next for the industry?

technologyreview.com Casey Crownhart 2025-10-06 08:00:00

Texas joins six other US states and the country of Italy in banning these products. These legal challenges are adding barriers to an industry that’s still in its infancy and already faces plenty of challenges before it can reach consumers in a meaningful way. The agriculture sector makes up a hefty chunk of global greenhouse-gas emissions, with livestock alone accounting for somewhere between 10% and 20% of climate pollution. Alternative meat products, including those grown in a lab, could help

Crispr Offers New Hope for Treating Diabetes

wired.com Javier Carbajal 2025-10-06 09:00:00

Crispr gene-editing technology has demonstrated its revolutionary potential in recent years: It has been used to treat rare diseases, to adapt crops to withstand the extremes of climate change, or even to change the color of a spider’s web. But the greatest hope is that this technology will help find a cure for a global disease, such as diabetes. A new study points in that direction. For the first time, researchers succeeded in implanting Crispr-edited pancreatic cells in a man with type 1 diab

Deliberate Abstraction

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-10-03 17:20:52

I recently wrote code to simulate a card game. The details are irrelevant, but it was a great opportunity to put inside-out design into practise, because when I started programming, I didn’t actually know the rules of the game, nor what all the card types were. Thus, I started from a very general core that I did know with certainty: Card - name : string - valid_play : Card -> bool A card has a name and it gets to decide on its own whether it’s legal to play this card on top of another card.

Spotify peeved after 10,000 users sold data to build AI tools

For millions of Spotify users, the "Wrapped" feature—which crunches the numbers on their annual listening habits—is a highlight of every year's end, ever since it debuted in 2015.
