Load Test GlassFlow for ClickHouse: Real-Time Deduplication at Scale By Ashish Bagri, Co-founder & CTO of GlassFlow TL;DR We tested GlassFlow on a real-world deduplication pipeline with Kafka and ClickHouse. It handled 55,00 records/sec published by Kafka and processed 9,000+ records/sec on a MacBook Pro, with sub-0.12ms latency. No crashes, no message loss, no disordering. Even with 20M records and 12 concurrent publishers, it remained robust. Want to try it yourself? The full test setup

Low-Temperature Additive Manufacturing of Glass

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2026-03-22 22:13:49

Researchers used the low-temperature additive manufacturing process to build the glass cups above. The optical behavior of the printed cups can be tailored by altering the chemical components of the inks. Additive manufacturing (3D printing) holds promise for fabricating complex glass structures that would be unattainable with traditional glass manufacturing techniques. Lincoln Laboratory’s innovative approach allows additive manufacturing of multimaterial glass items without the need for costl

The $14 Billion AI Google Killer

gizmodo.com Luc Olinga 2026-03-26 21:25:16

A new AI darling is making waves in Silicon Valley. It’s called Perplexity, and according to reports, both Meta and Apple have quietly explored acquiring it. Valued at a staggering $14 billion following a May funding round, the startup is being hailed as a revolutionary threat to Google Search’s search dominance. But here’s the thing: it mostly just summarizes web results and sends you links. So why the frenzy? Perplexity billed itself an “answer engine.” You ask a question, and it uses large

Andru Marino is an audio and video producer at The Verge. “I make videos on our YouTube / TikTok / Instagram channels, and have produced our podcasts like Vergecast, Decoder, and Why’d You Push That Button?” He also keeps a lot of notes, and his latest favorite places to keep them are the Triangle and Sidekick notebooks.

5 carriers you should sign up for instead of T-Mobile

Joe Maring / Android Authority If you’re shopping for a new cell phone carrier in the US, there’s a good chance you’re considering T-Mobile. As one of the most well-known cell service providers in the country, it’s likely at the top of your shopping list. But before you pull the trigger on T-Mobile, I’d advise you to first consider the alternatives. Between lackluster new plan offerings and the removal of long-beloved features like taxes and fees bundled into monthly prices, T-Mobile has seen b

I’m used to opening it on slow Sunday afternoons and wandering through my own travel history.

Google Pixel 10a wishlist: These are the 5 upgrades I want to see

Ryan Haines / Android Authority Over the last few years, we’ve gotten used to a pretty reliable formula for Pixel launches. Every fall, Google rolls out its flagships, followed by the mid-range Pixel A launch a few months later in the spring. Usually, that mid-ranger takes most of its cues (and all of its internals) from the flagships, giving us a great chance to recommend the full Pixel experience without the full Pixel price. This year, though, the Pixel 9a tried something new. It picked up
