🚀 Discover this trending post from Hacker News 📖 📂 **Category**: ✅ **What You’ll Learn**: I have been on the Norseman start ferry more times than I can count. The boat leaves the pier at Eidfjord around four in the morning. It is dark. It is cold. 250 athletes in wetsuits shuffle around the car deck, trying to stay calm. And at some point, before they jump four meters down into the fjord, we spray them with cold water.A lot of people think this is theatre. Some kind of wake-up ritual. It is not. We do it because the first…

Only One Side Will Be The True Successor to MS-DOS! – Windows 2.x – GUI Wonderland #12a

0 CommentsEntertainment

🚀 Read this awesome post from Hacker News 📖 📂 **Category**: 💡 **What You’ll Learn**: Despite what you may imagine from how history went afterward, Microsoft was fully aware of how MS-DOS was starting to be inadequate for current and future computing, especially if GUIs were truly going to become the only way to go from that moment onward; poor Windows 1.x could barely run on the most common machines of the time (which were running on Intel 8086 and 8088, and not on the newest 80286 and 80386), and it’s not like Windows 2.x could potentially do much better.…

The Thermodynamic Efficiency Inversion — Charles Duprat

🔥 Check out this must-read post from Hacker News 📖 📂 **Category**: ✅ **What You’ll Learn**: § 01In 2023, a widely circulated comparison claimed that generating a single response from a large language model consumed ten times more energy than a Google search query. The claim was technically narrow — it compared server-side GPU computation for an unoptimised, low-utilisation research deployment against a decade-mature search stack — but it lodged in public consciousness, shaped ESG discourse, and influenced early regulatory thinking on both sides of the Atlantic.This paper makes a different comparison. Rather than asking "how much energy does a…

✨ Check out this trending post from Hacker News 📖 📂 **Category**: 📌 **What You’ll Learn**: Claim being tested: the Q‑Day Prize submission in this repo demonstrates a quantum attack on ECDLP — specifically, key recovery on curves up to 17 bits using IBM Quantum hardware. This branch applies a single surgical patch (−29 / +30 lines) to projecteleven.py. The patch replaces the IBM Quantum backend inside solve_ecdlp() with os.urandom. Everything else — circuit construction, the ripple‑carry oracle, the extraction pipeline, the d·G == Q verifier — runs byte‑for‑byte unchanged. If the quantum computer were contributing measurable signal, this substitution…

“Plain text has been around for decades and it’s here to stay.” – Unsung

🚀 Check out this must-read post from Hacker News 📖 📂 **Category**: ✅ **What You’ll Learn**: There’s a category of “plain text” or “ASCII” diagramming and UI design tools: Mockdown – works immediately on the web, even on mobile Wiretext – works on the web, but desktop only Monodraw – a Mac app I believe these are used by people who prefer intentionally limited visual choices, for low-key diagramming to put in source code, and – increasingly – as an entry point to gen AI. They’re so interesting from the standpoint of this blog: Fun to see a contemporary take…

New 10 GbE USB adapters are cooler, smaller, cheaper

🚀 Discover this insightful post from Hacker News 📖 📂 **Category**: 📌 **What You’ll Learn**: For years, the best way to get 10 gigabit networking on laptops was to buy an expensive, large, and hot 10 GbE Thunderbolt adapter. With new RTL8159-based 10G USB 3.2 adapters coming onto the market, the bulky adapters might be a thing of the past. Just look at the size of the thing in comparison to my Thunderbolt adapters:2.5G and even 5G USB adapters have been out for a while, but sometimes you need more bandwidth.The 10G adapter I'm testing is this $80 model from…

🔥 Discover this trending post from Hacker News 📖 📂 **Category**: 📌 **What You’ll Learn**: A modern port of Turbo Vision 2.0, the classical framework for text-based user interfaces. Now cross-platform and with Unicode support. I started this as a personal project at the very end of 2018. By May 2020 I considered it was very close to feature parity with the original, and decided to make it open. The original goals of this project were: Making Turbo Vision work on Linux by altering the legacy codebase as little as possible. Keeping it functional on DOS/Windows. Being as compatible as…
