The Eagles Come Home to Roost in the Most Screwball ‘Peacemaker’ Yet

gizmodo.com Isaiah Colbert 2025-09-22 13:00:01

Peacemaker season two is trucking right along, picking up from its last episode’s big cliffhanger, suspending the situationship of Christopher Smith and Emilia Harcourt for an entire week before viewers can see how the chips will fall. Will Eagly make it out okay? Does bird blindness have a cure? Will the shoe ever drop on the long-held fan theory that Chris’ “best dimension ever” is actually a Nazi dimension? Seeing as how writer-director James Gunn has kept mum about every episode beyond this

futurism.com Unknown 2025-09-24 00:06:18

A single-engine plane crashed landed in a field of sugar cane in Brazil over the weekend, according to local news media Alagoas 24 Horas, killing the pilot and leaving behind 180 kilograms — or almost 400 pounds — of cocaine. So far, it just sounds like a tale of drug smuggling gone awry. Except that the coke, stacked together in neat bricks and wrapped in plastic, as shown in a video from local police obtained by Alagoas, sported a distinctive label: the official SpaceX logo, in blue and white

Automate compile_flags for C/C++ projects on the Zig build system

news.ycombinator.com Simon Hartcher 2025-09-29 13:28:49

When using Zig’s build system for C/C++ projects, editors struggle to find include paths and provide proper code intelligence. compile_flagz solves this by automatically generating compile_flags.txt from your build.zig configuration. The Problem Recently I’ve been working on ROLLER, a decompilation project for the 1995 game, Fatal Racing (or Whiplash in NA).

When software engineer Joshua Fonseca recently connected the GameCube simulation classic Animal Crossing to a modern AI language model like the kind that powers ChatGPT, he decided to shake things up. By programming the AI to roleplay as villagers growing aware of their debt situation, and giving them a shared memory to track conversations, Fonseca orchestrated a scenario where the residents began to organize against their raccoon landlord.

Everything About Bitflags: How to store up to 32 booleans in one value?

news.ycombinator.com Igor Klepacki 2025-10-09 19:58:33

When I was younger and I was involved in reverse engineering communities and systems programming, there was this concept called bit flags. They were a standard way of storing a pack of true or false values in ... actually a single value - a function parameter, local variable or entry in some configuration. I found nothing fascinating about that back then and just used it on a regular basis, as every other engineer was. Long time after that and after shifting my focus to web development I just r

Nothing teases its fourth-gen earbuds called the Ear (3) because numbers are hard

TL;DR Nothing has confirmed it will launch its next-generation flagship TWS earbuds soon. After previously adopting a new naming scheme that removed numbers from the name, Nothing is going back to “straightforward numerical order.” The next earbuds will be called the Ear (3).
