I recently crossed 500 days of practicing math daily with Math Academy. I wrote about my experience after 100 days here.

Airbrush art of the 80s was Chrome-tastic (2015)

news.ycombinator.com The Toy Box 2025-11-30 10:53:12

The 80’s was a decade of many things — excess, greed, and big hair, to name a few — but it was also the heyday for airbrush art. As a teenager in the late 80’s, I desperately wanted an airbrush so I could paint my favorite band logos on the back of my jean jacket, and maybe make some money on the side painting t-shirts and license plates. I thought those guys on the boardwalk selling custom shirts were gods — how could they produce such amazing works of art in just minutes? My graduation gift f

I made a real-time C/C++/Rust build visualizer

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-11-30 06:06:55

August 13, 2025・6 minute read Many software projects take a long time to compile. Sometimes that’s just due to the sheer amount of code, like in the LLVM project. But often a build is slower than it should be for dumb, fixable reasons. I’ve had the suspicion that most builds are doing dumb stuff, but I had no way to see it. So I’ve been working on a cross-platform tool to help speed up builds (you can try it, see below). It works with any build system or programming language (Not just C/C++).

With a trip to Florence booked, all I want is to rewatch Medici. The 2016 historical drama series tells of the rise of the powerful Florentine banking dynasty, and with it, the story of the Renaissance. Until recently, I could simply have gone to Netflix and found it there, alongside a wide array of award-winning and obscure titles. But when I Google the show in 2025, the Netflix link only takes me to a blank page. I don’t see it on HBO Max, Disney+, Apple TV+, or any of the smaller streaming pl

Star Wars fans have become accustomed to cinematic reshufflings in the years since 2019’s The Rise of Skywalker. But even before the sequel trilogy concluded, there were hints that Lucasfilm’s confident plans were subject to shake-ups. There were the notorious reshoots attached to 2016’s Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, but even more dramatically, there was the director switcheroo that happened with 2018’s Solo: A Star Wars Story.

Geoffrey Hinton, the pioneering mind behind AI industry-transforming neural networks, who's often referred to as a "godfather of AI," says we need to infuse AI with "maternal instincts" to save humanity from rogue AI. Though his work on neural networks helped to usher in the large language models (LLMs) that dominate Silicon Valley today, these days, Hinton is known for being somewhat of an AI alarmist: he believes that there's a significant chance that superintelligent AI will wipe out humanki
