techcrunch.com Tim De Chant 2026-01-22 20:00:00

Cloud seeding startup Rainmaker is partnering with Atmo, an AI-powered meteorology startup, the companies exclusively told TechCrunch. The two operate on complementary ends of the weather system: Atmo studies atmospheric patterns to forecast weather events, while Rainmaker digests such data in an attempt to squeeze more precipitation out of weather systems. Under the partnership, Atmo will use its deep learning models to help Rainmaker identify clouds that have potential for seeding. The forec

Show HN: Ten years of running every day, visualized

news.ycombinator.com No Days Off 2026-01-19 18:21:13

I didn't start running until I was in my late twenties, and even so I would end up in a pattern where I'd get motivated and go on a couple of runs, take a few days off, go on another run the following week, and next thing you know it's been a month since I last run. Rinse and repeat. In July 2015, something changed. I headed out on a run on a Tuesday, then did another one the next day, and the day after, and… I took the Friday off.

The Garmin Forerunner 570 is a powerful running watch but the price is all wrong

Garmin Forerunner 570 The Garmin Forerunner 570 is a sleek, high-performing running watch that nails the essentials and then some, but its price puts it in a strange no man’s land between its better-value siblings. With advanced training tools, added smart tools, and highly accurate sensors, it’s easy to love while wearing it, but unless you find it discounted, it's tricky to justify buying in the first place.

Garmin Forerunner 970 Review: A Very Extra Running Watch

wired.com Brent Rose 2026-01-23 17:00:00

Why, look at the leaves. It’s Garmin running watch season again! The sweatiest time of the year! As luck would have it, we’ve got a new flagship running watch to pore over in the form of the Forerunner 970. It features Garmin’s brightest AMOLED screen yet, built-in maps, a flashlight, a speaker, a mic, and more data fields than most of us mere mortals can process. It also costs $150 more than the previous running flagship, the Forerunner 965. Let’s see if it’s worth it. New Look Photograph: B

Jack Dorsey’s New App Just Hit a Very Embarrassing Snag

Serial entrepreneur Jack Dorsey, who cofounded Twitter, Block, and Bluesky, has started yet another new app — and this one's got an embarrassing secret. As TechCrunch reports, Dorsey's new open source messaging app, Bitchat, is supposed to be decentralized, private, and secure. There's only one problem: the Bluetooth-based app, by the venture's admission, is probably lacking in that key regard.

LGND wants to make ChatGPT for the Earth

The Earth is awash in data about itself. Every day, satellites capture around 100 terabytes of imagery. But making sense of it isn’t always easy. Seemingly simple questions can be fiendishly complex to answer. Take this question that is of vital economic importance to California: How many fire breaks does the state have that might stop a wildfire in its tracks, and how have they changed since the last fire season? “Originally, you’d have a person look at pictures.
