The “What’s the difference between UNIX and Linux?” question can be answered similar to the analogy section that many of us had to complete on the SAT test; UNIX is to DOS as Linux is to Windows. That ...
I created BunKill as a faster alternative to npkill for cleaning up node_modules directories.After working on multiple JavaScript projects, I noticed npkill could be slow when scanning large directory trees. So I built BunKill using Bun.js, which offers significant performance improvements.Features:• Ultra-fast scanning with optimized glob patterns• Interactive CLI with pagination and keyboard navigation (↑/↓ to navigate, Space to select, Enter to delete)• Accurate size calculation with fal
I've been iterating on a small galaxy visualization project that originally started as a university course assignment, using only provided sample data (no real astronomical distances).Recently, I updated it to include redshift-based distance data, which makes the 3D structure more meaningful and closer to real large-scale galaxy distributions.Repo: https://github.com/Avicted/galaxy_visualization_raylibDemo video (3D navigation + galaxy structures): https://www.

The Thiele Machine is a formally verified universal computational model the surpasses Turing machines in key ways. It's fully proven in Coq (including kernel theorems and universality containment), features a python implementation for simulation and includes hardware designs in Verilog for potential FPGA/ASIC builds. The core idea: a paradigm shift using μ-bits for stricter computation under real-world constraints, tying into physics (e.g., Noether’s theorem) and emergence in chaotic s
