They also discuss their love for specialty coffee, particularly pour-overs and Americanos, highlighting the importance of high-quality beans in creating an exceptional experience.
The author experimented with creating a light theme for VSCode, but found it challenging due to the need for contrast with a white background. They concluded that highlighting should focus on what matters most and be subtle enough not to distract from the semantic parts of code.
Valve's Steam has leaked over 12TB of content from its defunct "Steam2" server architecture, including thousands of game versions and prototypes from 2003-2013. The leak is believed to have been obtained through a publicly accessible API endpoint, raising concerns about the security implications for PC gaming history.

A formalization of the resolution of the Hopf problem: the six-sphere admits a complex manifold structure compatible with its standard topology - plby/HopfProblem
After about two years since the last beta, and only about a week after Haiku’s 25th birthday, Haiku R1/beta6 has been released! See “Release Notes” for the release notes, “Press contact”, for press inquiries … and “Get Haiku!” to skip all that and just download the release (or upgrade to it from an existing install.)
Diffusion models are an alternative to autoregressive models for generating discrete data like text or code, offering advantages in controllability and speed. They work by iteratively refining a sequence of tokens, allowing for error correction and parallel generation.
Researchers used buried cotton underwear to measure soil biological activity across Switzerland, finding private gardens had the highest decomposition rates. The study collected data from over 1,000 citizen scientists and showed that soils with high nutrient levels can be detrimental to ecosystems.
The author created a NFC-enabled business card using an ATtiny816 microchip, 21 LEDs, and the NXP NTAG I2C Plus chip. The card can harvest power from nearby phones to display animations and show contact information via QR code or NFC link.
The Spacelab computer used a unique 2½D memory architecture that eliminated the need for an inhibit line, boosting performance. It had a high-density design with integrated circuits and was manufactured in 1980, near the end of core memory's reign.
A homeowner installed a Blink video doorbell to improve security after a burglary in 2024, but encountered issues with notifications and guest access. He created an Rube Goldberg machine using Google Home minis, SmartThings, and Home Assistant to resolve these problems without relying on cloud services.
The writer built a custom workbench using IKEA Kallax shelving units, MDF boards, and other materials to create a functional and aesthetically pleasing piece of furniture for their office. They successfully combined the practicality of a workbench with the look of living room furniture within their budget.
Blue light—short wavelengths of visible light emitted by smartphones, computers, and TVs—impairs the eye’s ability to distinguish fine detail more than any other wavelength, according to a new study from the University of Georgia. This finding could help inform future lighting technologies, digital display design, and research on visual performance. Researchers tested 60 young adults in a ...
Connecting two computers via Ethernet can transfer data at speeds of up to 900 Mbps, making it suitable for transferring large files between devices. This method is faster and more reliable than using USB or cloud storage, especially for point-to-point connections without the need for a local network or TCP/IP stack.

You can sort Git branches by various fields, including push and upstream locations, in addition to the default commit date. These extra fields provide more context about each branch's history and relationships.
This driver enables 2048-wide output on a SM750 board, with optional modes for ultrawide desktops and experimental features. The driver is available as a prebuilt package or can be built locally using DKMS.
Relm4 makes developing beautiful cross-platform applications idiomatic, simple and fast and enables you to become productive in just a few hours. Relm4 provides an outstanding documentation in the form of a dedicated book and Rust docs.
Researchers are revisiting continuous diffusion models for language after a few years of relative dormancy, as discrete methods have gained popularity. Continuous diffusion models can represent uncertainty at the individual token level and offer a rich toolbox of sampling algorithms, but they may be less efficient than discrete methods.
