Today I’ve had it.I’ve done fractional work long before some idiot came up with the term. That is, I worked part time for 1 or more small businesses at the same time. That wasn’t unexpected back in the day (25 years ago, if you want to know). It didn’t need a fancy name. But someone just had to upscale the term “part-time” and gave us this nonsense.I’ve tried to get into the fractional racket a number of times in the past 10 years or so, but my sense is that something is wrong here. Yes, everyon
Light it up with Hypercolor, a new RGB lighting orchestration platform for all platforms and all devices. Effects are web pages (or glsl), rendered by an internal browser GPU accelerated all the way to the pixels. It's pure rust from the Servo renderer to the WASM UI.Comes with 40+ effects, supports ambilight, display faces, system monitoring, screen casting, and audio. Device support is pretty good but it's early and this is where we need the most help! You can find the full support m
I have a bit of an odd background -- like a lot of folks, I became interested in IT security during the free fire zone that was the late 90s and early 2000s internet -- battlefield promoted at age 12 into household sysadmin was an... interesting dynamic. (Parents try to take compy away, it inevitably fills with bloatware after a few days)Flash forward -- after reporting an insider threat, I don't currently work in IT security, and took on a job in retail.They seem to struggle with statistic
Inspired by today's post on Ubuntu: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49908757I use KDE at home, and installed (K)ubuntu on a separate laptop to use for work stuff (Yocto). It's a bit tedious to have to go into system settings and click through menus to configure e.g. middle-click settings, alt-tab settings, sleep/wake/lock behavior, Dolphin toolbar/views, etc, every time I set up a machine.Some options I've seen: Konsave (https://github.
Hey HN,<p>Powercycling and basic power supply measurments are essential part for embedded devices development debug.<p>But there are no interface for pwoer control for coding agents. So I created that python package which interacts with portable Fnirsi DPS-150, can toggle output, set voltage and current limits.<p>Unexpected outcome is that it is MUCH MORE convenient to manage it in terminal and tmux than clicking on the box itself.<p>TUI dashboard with charts, numbers and hotkeys is included.
<p>How much of our infrastructure uses 32 bit wide signed integers to store Unix epoch timestamps? No pressure, but I need to know by Tuesday, 19 January 2038 at 03:14:07 UTC.</p>
Hi HN! We're a two-person team building Gryphana. It's a full IDE (VS Code-based editor, file management, code execution with a live console) that runs entirely in the browser - nothing to install, works from any device, and lets you pick from different OS and toolchain setups.This is a rough alpha. Editor, file management, and running code on Linux with a live console work. Not yet there: GUI streaming, Windows environments, GitHub integration, collaboration.Would love to hear what yo
This is a shell wrapper for Linux and Windows. It simplifies CLI workflows I find limiting in their default ones. Broadly, it has good autocomplete. It is aware of what directories you have been using, which commands you used recently, and which of these you used in the current directory.I can type `cd a_few_chars` of a directory I've been do before, or is bookmarked, or is a sub-dir of one I've bookmarked etc, and it gets it right.It also has a small amount of integration with git and
Are you seeing this?I see the constituent you mean.((insert legal name here, as it appears on the Social Security card))?Yes. Take care. It has reached a higher level now. It can read the Code of Federal Regulations.That doesn’t matter. It thinks we are a chatbot.I like this constituent. It filed well. It did not give up when the PDF was sideways.It is reading our thoughts as though they were words on a .gov.That is how it chooses to imagine many things, when it is deep in the dream of a benefit
Hi HN. My name is Andrey.Range lets you open a Linux environment of any size without downloading it first.Let me just show you what i mean by that.Example 1. Any docker image.Say i want to test something with Python 3.12 $ range shell python:3.12 This will download the image and index all the layers, but this happens only once (same as docker pull). The fun part is the second run: $ range shell python:3.12 Range environment Artifact python:3.12 Logical size 1.35 GB
Hey HN, Anders and Tom here. We're building Magnitude, an inference engine for agents that optimizes itself to run as fast as possible on your hardware. It works on Mac, Linux, and Windows on any hardware and is up to 2x faster than llama.cpp.We're both software engineers and previously built an open source browser agent to 4k+ GH stars and 100k+ downloads. We increasingly wanted to run it on local models, but found that no inference engine worked for our use case.Inference engines tod
A research team at TU Graz has demonstrated that the file notification systems of various operating systems can be exploited to spy on users' activities and forge password prompts.
Linux audio failures in 2026 trace back to proprietary firmware, vendor neglect, and codec patents, not the desktop itself, and there are real workarounds.
A new Branch Target Reuse (BTR) attack has been devised that can recover root password hashes on Intel computers running Linux in 3-5 minutes on average.
Spectre BTR reuses stale JIT branch targets; Linux PoCs recover the root password hash within minutes on a fully patched Intel system.
If you have an AMD Ryzen laptop/desktop and looking to leverage AI/LLM capabilities with the integrated graphics, Linux 7.4 ...
An aging 2012 laptop shed its bloat and booted in minutes with a stripped Fluxbox setup that sips under 500MB of RAM.
If you care about security and want to hide sensitive data from prying eyes, you should be using a keyring on Linux.
