Is it too much to ask devs to use AI to review their hand-crafted code?https://lobste.rs/s/fxccx9/is_it_too_much_ask_devs_use_ai_review_their

You believe coding by hand is the Way and I both admire and appreciate beautiful, hand-crafted code. But I want to use your library, and when I ask my AI to evaluate it for bugs, memory leaks, security issues, it returns a long list of serious ones. Even if you hate AI-generated code, you can use an AI to identify issues and you can fix them yourself. Think of it as an advanced linter or something.

Show HN: Mu, two-minute visualized lessons on modern AIhttps://mu.vizuara.ai

Hi HN, I am Sreedath Panat. A year ago, I had started a habit of making small explainer videos of 2-3 minutes to help me understand, in a nutshell, some of the difficult-to-understand research papers. I'm not saying that this gave me a deep understanding, but it definitely helped me set foot into some of the research papers (eg: I-JEPA, flamingo paper etc). Then I thought, why can't the same technique be used for getting a minimal understanding of different concepts within AI? There is a reason why I try to convert this thought into a simple product. The 2-minute micro lessons are fully built…

Researchers at UC San Diego have demonstrated that a key cellular enzyme can accurately read an eight-letter genetic alphabet, doubling the four letters used by all known life on Earth. Detailed imaging revealed that RNA polymerase handles synthetic DNA letters in surprisingly similar ways to natural ones. The finding brings scientists closer to building expanded genetic systems that could perform entirely new biological functions.

Under temperatures near absolute zero and magnetic fields reaching 60 tesla, electrons produced quantum oscillations that continued even after conventional physics predicted they should disappear.

Hi HN, I’m the creator of TimerVana. It's not just "another timer app". The engineering analogy is a lightweight task scheduler for things people do in the real world. A normal timer models one countdown. TimerVana models a small dependency graph in JSON: some steps run sequentially, others run in parallel, and everything can converge on a target finish time. You can also combine multiple timers (e.g., combine a timer with all the steps to cook a steak + a timer for roasting vegetables). I originally built it because I often set multiple timers and alarms when cooking and got tired of repea…
