Diamond Thermal Conductivity: A New Era in Chip Cooling
Today’s stunning computing power is allowing us to move from human intelligence toward artificial intelligence. And as our machines gain more power, they’re becoming not just tools but decision-makers shaping our future. But with great power comes great…heat! As nanometer-scale transistors switch at gigahertz speeds, electrons race through circuits, losing energy as heat—which you feel […]

People with blindness can read again after retinal implant and special glasses
People with a leading cause of blindness were able to read again thanks to a tiny wireless chip implanted in the back of the eye and specialized augmented glasses, according to study results published Monday in the New England Journal of Medicine. The trial involved 38 European patients, all of whom had an advanced stage […]
People with blindness can read again after retinal implant
An electrical device implanted under the retina helps to restore some visual acuity to people with age-related macular degeneration.Credit: Science Corporation Scientists have used an eye implant to improve the vision of dozens of people left functionally blind by age-related macular degeneration (AMD). The implant, which measures 2 millimetres by 2 millimetres, and is just […]

Show HN: I’m rewriting a web server written in Rust for speed and ease of use
You may want to check out what Ferron is doing. I’ve been using it for a few months. Highly recommend. (…) Significantly easier to set up than nginx, and by far the most effortless auto TLS integration. (…) Highly recommend using the v2 docker images though. It now uses KDL for configuration, which is much […]
Pasta/80 is a simple Pascal cross compiler targeting the Z80 microprocessor
PASTA/80 is a simple Pascal cross compiler targeting the Z80 microprocessor. It generates code for these classic and modern machines: The compiler follows the single-pass recursive-descent approach championed by Niklaus Wirth, inventor of Pascal, in his books and lectures. It doesn’t have an explicit syntax tree, but instead generates code on the fly during parsing. […]

Language Support for Marginalia Search
One of the big ambitions for the search engine this year has been to enable searching in more languages than English, and a pilot project for this has just been completed, allowing experimental support for German, French and Swedish. These changes are now live for testing, but with an extremely small corpus of documents. As […]
