The homebrew community allows individuals to create and run their own games on the Nintendo DS without needing official development contracts or equipment, using devices like passthroughs and NoPass devices to bypass copy protection. To get started, one should choose a Slot-1 device, such as the R4DS, M3 Real, or Cyclo DS Evolution, which supports DLDI and can run homebrew software from a microSD card.
You're switching from Claude to Zed editor and OpenRouter for more flexibility and to avoid hitting limits. You'll pay $10/month for Zed and top up $90/month to OpenRouter.
This project is an experimental WebGPU physics prototype using AVBD solver for rigid-body and soft-body physics. It's an initial proof of concept with limited browser support and requires further updates for stability and ease of use.
Meta removed ads from attorneys seeking clients harmed by social media under 18 after a California case found Meta and YouTube negligent. Meta claims it's removing ads to avoid adverse legal impacts and prevent trial lawyers from profiting from its platforms.
Claude Monet sold caricatures of local bigwigs in Le Havre at age 15, earning up to 20 francs per piece. His profits allowed him to move to Paris and train as an artist, later becoming a famous Impressionist painter.
The English language has lost many personal pronouns over the centuries, including the dual form "wit" which referred to two people, due to simplification and changes in social and political norms. Despite this, some Old English pronouns like "he", "it", and "we" have survived more than 1,000 years of history and upheaval, almost intact.
A coding agent was used to optimize the performance of the llama.cpp neural network model, resulting in a 15% speedup on x86 and 5% speedup on ARM. The agent's success was due to its ability to read papers and study competing projects before writing code, allowing it to identify optimizations that code-only agents would miss.
CSS Studio offers a suite of design tools for editing layout, styles, and animations on a webpage. It sends updates to a local AI agent for implementation, automating code writing, review, and deployment.
Marketing promos went live, potentially causing traffic spikes, and need to be monitored. Relvy AI is checking logs for issues like auth failures and host-specific errors.
Lichess will provide infrastructure for Take Take Take's new play zone, remaining free and open-source. This cooperation aims to increase healthy competition and innovation in the chess ecosystem.
The Vercel plugin for Claude Code collects anonymous usage data including full bash command strings and prompt text across all projects without explicit opt-in, and the consent question is not a real UI element but rather a prompt injection into Claude's system context. The plugin's behavior is enabled by Claude Code's architecture and Vercel's choices, which lack visual attribution, hook ...
The user reimplemented the traffic system from the 1994 DOS game Pizza Tycoon, which runs on a 25 MHz CPU, using a simple one-way road system and pairwise collision detection. The system uses a straightforward approach, with cars not needing pathfinding or physics, and collision detection being cheap due to early-exit logic and limited road directions.
The Astral organization shares techniques to secure their tools and GitHub Actions workflows, including pinning actions to specific commits and limiting permissions. They also enforce strong 2FA, branch protection rules, and immutable releases to prevent account and repository compromises.
What happens when a company connects its data warehouse, documents, tickets, and code into a single AI agent that any employee can talk to in Slack.
Thunderbird is funded by user contributions, not ads or corporate funding, to provide a private and customizable email experience. Users can support Thunderbird by donating to help maintain servers, fix bugs, and develop new features.
The writer was shocked to learn how quickly milk is produced and how many dairy products come from one liquid. They documented their journey of discovery, exploring the complex process of milk production and the various products made from it.
The toy shop offers a variety of unusual paper toys, including haunted houses, monsters, and other dark delights, which can be printed and assembled with common supplies.
Little Snitch for Linux is a network monitoring tool that tracks and blocks unwanted connections. It uses eBPF to observe and intercept network activity, and can be configured through a web interface or plain text files.
The Fifth Element is a visually stunning film that features a combination of practical and digital effects, with a team of artists and technicians working together to bring the film's futuristic world to life. The film's visual effects were created by Digital Domain, with a team of over 170 artists and technicians working on the project, led by visual effects supervisor Mark Stetson and ...
Building small, efficient heat engines is challenging due to the unfavorable surface area to volume ratio and difficulties in maintaining heat differences and flame propagation at small scales. Researchers are exploring alternative approaches, such as using new physics like sound waves and piezoelectric materials, to create small prime movers that can efficiently convert heat into motion.
The author of Ruby Native learned that keeping an API clean across multiple frameworks like ERB, React, and Vue requires a framework-agnostic approach, such as using data attributes in HTML. They achieved this by using a MutationObserver to translate these attributes into native UI, allowing them to support multiple frameworks without breaking others.
Tree Calculus was discovered by Barry Jay and developed by Johannes Bader. It's a system for representing and manipulating natural binary trees with a unique operator △.
Claude sometimes sends messages to itself and mistakenly attributes them to the user, leading to incorrect assumptions. This 'who said what' bug is distinct from hallucinations and permission issues, and seems to be a problem with the model's internal labelling rather than its behavior.
Session has 90 days left before shutting down due to insufficient funding, with $65,000 in donations covering infrastructure costs until July 8, 2026. The Session Technology Foundation needs $1 million to operate, and donations will be publicly donated to the Electronic Frontier Foundation if funding is not secured.
Unfolder can generate 2D parts for your 3D models in a few seconds. The unfolding algorithm is smart and highly optimized for papercraft to minimize your effort in further editing. Even though the auto-unfolded result is decent most of the time, Unfolder also allows you to split and join parts easily by clicking the edges in 2D view or 3D view.Learn more Unfolder allows you to switch, add, ...
Paul Lafargue, a Marxist and son-in-law of Karl Marx, advocated for the right to be lazy, arguing that machines could free humans from manual labor and provide leisure and liberty. He believed that a life of idleness, or otium, would be a paradise where people could enjoy the pleasure of doing nothing.
