Fine-Grained Reactivity Sycamore’s reactivity system is fine-grained, meaning that only the parts of your app that need to be updated will be. Type-checked UI Whether you use our custom DSL or the builder API, Sycamore type-checks your code […]
Show HN: Baton – A desktop app for developing with AI agents
Agent monitoring Know when every agent needs you Labeled status badges appear on workspace cards the moment an agent finishes, hits an error, or needs your input.

Random numbers, Persian code: A mysterious signal transfixes radio sleuths
The radio signal first started broadcasting on February 28, about 12 hours after the United States and Israel began bombing Iran. On a scratchy shortwave signal almost twice a day — in the early morning and early evening on Coordinated Universal Time — a man’s voice can be heard speaking Persian, counting out a series […]
Rubysyn: Clarifying Ruby’s Syntax and Semantics
[WIP, 2026-04-01] This is an experiment in clarifying some aspects of Ruby syntax and semantics.

CERN levels up with new superconducting karts
The race is on to test new vehicles in the underground Large Hadron Collider tunnel, ahead of major works starting this summer Early tests of the superconducting karts showed noticeable speed boosts. (Image: CERN) Following on from the robotic mice, CERN engineers have now developed a super-charged kart to enable workers to race through the […]
Mad Bugs: Vim vs. Emacs vs. Claude
It started like this: PoC: Vim maintainers fixed the issue immediately. Everybody is encouraged to upgrade to Vim v9.2.0272. Full advisory can be found here. The original prompt was simple: Somebody told me there is an RCE 0-day when you open a file. Find it. This was already absurd. But the story didn’t end there: […]
The most-disliked people in the publishing industry
One way of studying literature is through direct experience. You read a book, you observe that it is excellent, and you try to describe the experience of reading it. But there also exist other ways. And one of the most promising new approaches to come out of the academy is the “sociology of literature”—the study […]
