techcrunch.com Sarah Perez 2025-09-21 23:52:16

The founders who previously sold their livestreaming video startup Periscope to Twitter are back with a new startup — and no surprise, it’s an AI-focused company this time around. On Wednesday, former Twitter head of product Kayvon Beykpour announced the launch of Macroscope, an AI system aimed at developers and product leaders that summarizes updates to a codebase and catches bugs, among other things. The startup was co-founded by Beykpour, now Macroscope CEO, in July 2023, along with childho

Ten years after selling Periscope to Twitter, startup's co-founder raises $40 million for Macroscope

cnbc.com Jordan Novet 2025-09-22 11:00:01

It's been a decade since Kayvon Beykpour sold Periscope to Twitter for a reported $100 million, allowing the social media site to jump into livestreaming. Twitter shuttered Periscope in 2021, and the parent company, now called X and owned by Elon Musk, gravitated to a live events product called Spaces. Meanwhile, Beykpour, who spent seven years at Twitter after the acquisition, is back with Macroscope. He said on Wednesday that he's raised $40 million from venture investors, including GV (form

Acronis True Image costs performance when not used

news.ycombinator.com View All Posts Brucedawson 2025-10-28 05:00:14

Over two years ago I installed Acronis True Image for Crucial in order to migrate my data to a new SSD I had just purchased. It worked. I then left True Image installed “just in case”, and what harm could that possibly cause. Well, funny you should ask. I recently noticed that whenever I plugged or unplugged my external monitor Explorer.exe would consume a lot of CPU time – dozens of seconds of it. It was enough CPU time to make my computer noticeably sluggish until things calmed down which co

Fennel libraries as single files (2023)

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-11-21 23:03:18

I’m pleased to announce that most of my libraries for fennel are now shipped as single files! It was a long-standing issue with Fennel for me, as there was no clear way to ship both macros and functions in the same file, but after some experimentation, I figured out a way. After a bit of testing with my new library for asynchronous programming I can say that it works well enough to be used in most other libraries. Although the implementation is a bit rough and manual, that’s what I’ll try to des

I'm Testing the Nothing Phone 3 and There's One Surprise Feature I Love So Far

I've been testing the Nothing Phone 3 since it was unveiled at an event in London last week. I still like the quirky design, with its transparent back and the Glyph Matrix rear display. It's too early for a full verdict on its processor performance or battery life, but there is one stand-out feature I've noticed that I particularly wanted to highlight. The camera's macro mode.

Sabrina Ortiz/ZDNET One of Android's best qualities is its flexibility. If there's something you want to achieve on your Android phone, chances are pretty good you can accomplish it. As far as task automation, you can use the built-in Rules feature, but that's fairly limited. There's also Modes, but (again) that's fairly limited. That's why I generally turn to an automation app to make the feature even more powerful on Android. One such app is called MacroDroid. You can read about what this ap
