GitHub's Status Page - Incident with Actions, Pull Requests and Issues.
Giles Goddard, a Nintendo coder, discusses the making of Super Mario 64, revealing that it was initially designed for the SGI Onyx emulator and had a small team of around 15 people. The game's camera system was revolutionary at the time and took thousands of different systems to perfect.
Researchers found the gene responsible for orange fur in cats is a 5 kilobase deletion on the X chromosome, affecting expression of Arhgap36. This mutation causes overexpression of melanocytes leading to orange coloration, with females exhibiting patchwork colors due to random inactivation of one X chromosome.
The writer feels guilty about using AI to help others, fearing it undermines their value and relationships. However, they argue that knowing how to effectively use AI can actually strengthen bonds and show commitment.
User is trying to add a suggestion to a batch commit on GitHub, but the suggestions are invalid due to various reasons such as no changes made or existing code not changed.
The author discusses how websites track users through their browser fingerprints, which can be used to identify individuals. This data is often sold or shared with third parties, compromising user privacy.
The author has created a templating library for Zig, called zt, which is an adaptation of Templ to Zig. It allows for type-safe and fast template rendering with safe defaults and no runtime errors.
Hibana is a choreography-derived runtime enforcement kernel for finite-role affine asynchronous multiparty protocols, providing distributed fidelity and progress guarantees. It enforces protocol rules at each attached endpoint and states the carrier, deployment, codec, and scheduling conditions needed to lift local results to global conclusions.
A modern, MIT-licensed engine reimagines Total Annihilation through clean-room research, offering a browser demo and full game installation. The engine features improved graphics, camera controls, and online play capabilities with existing game files.
This set of notes uses Julia to learn calculus, combining graphical, numerical, algebraic, and verbal components. The goal is to use technology effectively while focusing on concepts rather than computer mechanics.
The mac_linuxgpu driver is a PCIDriverKit extension that drives an AMD GPU in a Thunderbolt enclosure. It uses the unmodified upstream Linux amdgpu and amdkfd drivers, available under MIT or GPL-2.0-only licenses.
Researchers explored using a language model to generate criteria for relevance assessment, rather than just asking a reranker if a query is relevant. This approach showed promise in two e-commerce datasets and could be used as inspiration for more decision models.
Many contributors to OpenStreetMap (OSM) have mapped North Korea, with motivations ranging from curiosity and interest in the country's geography to humanitarian efforts and personal hobbies. The majority of OSM data in North Korea was contributed by non-Korean individuals using satellite imagery, with some edits made for fun or as part of quality assurance tasks.
A project recompiles PS2 games into web pages, using WebAssembly and WebGPU for graphics rendering. The process involves translating the game's Emotion Engine machine code into C++, compiling it to WebAssembly, and linking against a reimplementation of the PS2's operating system and hardware.
Mathematicians are using AI to solve long-standing problems, but the field needs more transparent assessments of AI capabilities and consideration of human expertise. This shift may lead to new "difficulty landscapes" in mathematics research.
Research firm New Constructs warns that Anthropic's upcoming IPO is the most ridiculous of 2026, valuing it at $150 billion despite significant operating losses. The company's valuation would require double Nvidia's trailing year profit and poses a historic risk to financial markets.
Roman Abramovich's wealth was hidden from tax authorities through a scheme involving Deloitte, his accountants, and offshore companies. The firm falsified documents to conceal assets worth $672m in the UK.
Doory is a free, open-source design editor that allows users to create various visual content without any account or ads. It offers a wide range of features and tools for designing posters, social posts, stories, slides, and more.
Citroen revives its 2CV brand to boost sales of electric cars, unveiling a retro-styled city runabout. The new model is expected to go on sale by 2028 and will be priced around £13,000.
Verifying your browser… This will only take a moment.
The gap in understanding of Large Language Model (LLM) capabilities is widening, with 75% of the population having little to no interaction. The funnel represents a sharp increase in users from casual and infrequent to professional-grade systems, with only 0.00006% accessing frontier-grade systems internally.

The author argues that passkeys, promoted by the FIDO Alliance, are not as secure or convenient as they seem due to their lack of transparency and user control. Passkeys can be made non-copyable but transferable, have varying levels of security features like remote attestation.
The author discusses how seeing comes before words and that images are man-made, created to convey a way of seeing. The reproduction of art has changed the way we experience and understand it, making it more accessible but also losing its unique authority.
Pensieve is a tool that connects coding agents to search for relevant passages in code, reducing the need for grep and saving tokens. It indexes files, folders, repos, and agent sessions locally on the Mac.
Mathematicians and educators discuss the meaning of rigorous illustrations in mathematical research, questioning traditional measures of success like theorem production. They explore how illustration can reveal new insights and provide a more nuanced understanding of mathematics beyond proof-writing.
Purism's Librem 5 and PINE64's PinePhone were promising alternatives to Android/iOS, but the Linux phone market stagnated due to hardware limitations and proprietary blobs. However, recent advancements in SoC technology and increased support for Linux have revitalized the market, with options like Rockchip's RK3588S offering improved performance at a lower cost.
A version bump on main triggers a workflow run, which fetches and imports code from remote URLs using JSON-RPC. The process also handles generated files that are not rendered by default.
New York City enforces a rule requiring businesses to make cancellation as easy as signing up, with penalties for non-compliance starting at $525. Consumers can file complaints online and receive assistance from the Department of Consumer and Worker Protection (DCWP).
