Getting Started with Offload: Automating Everyday Workflows with Docker
Every developer eventually hits a wall with their local machine.

486Tang - 486 on a credit-card-sized FPGA board
The Sipeed Tang 138K FPGA hosted by a retro console-style breakout board is available for around $120, or a bit more if one wants a fancy case.

This Verilog implementation lacks an FPU and the ‘386 chip’s virtual ‘86 mode, but might be of interest to operating system developers who want to get further into the chip than is normally possible without expensive (and these days unavailable) ICE hardware.

A new study led by WCS, University of the South Pacific, and partners has found that coral reefs in Fiji showed remarkable resilience after being battered by Category 5 Tropical Cyclone Winston in 2016. Despite losing more than half of their hard coral cover on average, reefs rebounded within four years, reassembling to nearly their pre-cyclone condition. ⌘ Read more

Simple, minimal SQL database migrations written in Go with generics. Std lib database/sql and SQLX supported OOTB
I built GoSMig for personal projects and open-sourced it. It’s a tiny library for writing migrations in Go (compile-time checks via generics). Supports both transactional and non-transactional steps, rollback, status/version commands, and a built-in CLI handler so you can ship your own tool.

  • Zero dependencies (std lib; golang.org/x/term used for pager support)
  • database/sql and sqlx supported out of the box, others w … ⌘ Read more

Trump’s EV retreat is a huge win for his No. 1 trade rival
Allison Morrow,  Reporter  -  CNN

_Stephan: Because Trump, his vassals, and the Republican Party think climate change is not real, and just a “con”, America is going backwards, while China is being handed world leadership of the EV transition. It is just one of a dozen other trends reducing the geopolitical stature and economic success of the United States. Yet millions of Americans still don’t get what Trump … ⌘ Read more

Exploring how dark matter alters electron-capture supernovae and the birth of neutron stars
Electron-capture supernovae (ECSNe) are stellar explosions that occur in stars with initial masses around 8–10 times that of the sun. These stars develop oxygen-neon-magnesium cores, which become unstable when electrons are captured by neon and magnesium nuclei. ⌘ Read more
