The Joseon court — the dynasty that ruled Korea for five centuries (1392–1897) — watched and recorded eclipses, comets, droughts, floods, and tiger incursions as signs bearing on the Mandate of Heaven: Heaven's read on whether the dynasty should stand. This console logs those readings as operational telemetry — every entry a real record from the 朝鮮王朝實錄.
The author emphasizes the importance of quality in product design, citing a shift from speed to exceptional craftsmanship. They share their expertise on building great interfaces through their website and magazine, Interfaces.
The 8087 floating-point chip uses microcode to implement its instruction set, with 1648 micro-instructions controlling the chip's operations. The FXCH instruction, which exchanges two floating-point registers, is implemented with 14 micro-instructions that handle various conditions and exceptions.
openrsync is a BSD-licensed rsync implementation compatible with modern rsync protocol 27, primarily designed for OpenBSD but also portable to other UNIX systems. It uses a subset of rsync's command-line arguments and is part of the rpki-client project.

Tsplat renders 3d gaussian splatting scenes directly in your terminal. written in rust and is cpu only for now, doesn't require gpu or display servers and it even works over ssh. you need an inria 3dgs scene. you can think of it as a fuzzy colored blob. if you want to see the rendered scene, you can use the command line to open the console
Envelope is an open standard for defining AI teams, allowing builders to describe their teams in a declarative format that can be read and written by any runtime. By adopting this standard, Envelope aims to become the canonical marketplace for AI teams, driving adoption and ecosystem growth without giving away its business.
Werner Herzog discusses his film Grizzly Man, about Timothy Treadwell, a man who lived with bears in Alaska. Herzog found Treadwell's footage fascinating and powerful, despite his delusional acts.
The Zig project has made several improvements including faster build times, incremental compilation, and better type resolution. These changes aim to make the development experience more efficient and user-friendly, with features like faster error messages and improved dependency management.
William Sealy Gosset was great. He improved beer at Guinness by using the statistics that existed at the time. Not happy with that, he invented new statistics to brew even better beer. The things he invented are used all over the place now, but Guinness wanted to keep him a secret weapon, so they made him publish his results under the fake name Student. One thing Gosset realised is that it is ...
The user implemented a basic fluid simulation in Godot using Navier Stokes equations, including density advection, diffusion, and velocity advection, and also implemented boundary conditions and pressure correction to remove incompressibility artifacts. The user explained the process in a blog post, including code snippets and explanations of the algorithms used, and noted that the simulation ...
Container shipping costs have doubled since the Iran war began, with bunker fuel costs up 68% and spot rates increasing 59-66% on major routes. Importers are paying more for ocean transport due to the Hormuz crisis, with carriers passing on fuel costs and expecting further rate increases.
Researchers created a virtual bicycle simulator to study how humans and computers learn to ride a bicycle and found that humans use inertial cues and leaning actions that are missing from the simulation. They designed a two-neuron network that can control the bicycle's heading and leaning, and successfully tested it on a virtual bicycle, but future directions include having the system learn ...
User analyzed Shakespeare's plays for place references, extracting 288 places and 2,685 quotes from 38 plays. They created an interactive map with MapLibre, using Stamen's Watercolour tiles, and added search functionality to explore quotes and places.
The Pope's encyclical warns against unregulated AI development and outdated concepts like "just war". He also calls for fact-checked journalism, multilateral diplomacy, and apologizes for the papacy's past slavery condemnation.

GPTZero discovered that Ernst & Young's 2025 report "Points of Attack" contains fake citations and inaccurate claims, which are being spread through newspapers, blog posts, and AI search overviews. The company's Hallucination Check tool identified the fake citations and highlights the dangers of "vibe citing" in research and consulting reports.
The Oxide team encountered a tricky debugging issue with their Service Processor (SP) dropping off the network due to a potential software or hardware bug, which was later found to be caused by a mismatched memory attribute on the FMC bus. The team was able to reproduce the issue and eventually fixed it by changing the base address of the FMC bus to match the attributes of the device memory section.
