I came across Stratosync recently and thought it was worth sharing here. I’m not affiliated with the project. It seems to be trying to fill a gap that Linux still has: a decent “files on demand” style cloud sync client, where the filesystem is mounted normally but file contents are only downloaded when needed instead of mirroring everything locally. One can also pin files to keep them in sync. Stratosync is written in Rust, uses FUSE3 for the filesystem layer and rclone for cloud backends, so it should work with services like Google Drive, OneDrive, Dropbox, S3, Nextcloud, SFTP, etc. Fr…

Two computers, one bit. Hi — I built slock, a small macOS menu bar app that connects two people through their capslock lights. Hold capslock on your Mac, and the other person’s capslock light turns on. Let go, and it turns off. That’s all. A tiny way to interact someone without opening a chat window. Invent a blink language, try Morse code, or just bother someone who agreed to install this with you. If you both opt in, the same key also becomes a push-to-talk walkie-talkie. It’s open source: simple Swift, end-to-end encrypted, no accounts, no analytics. While it’s running, capslock…

Indonesia’s dangerous peat fires are surging early in the 2026 fire season as a strengthening El Niño and severe drought dry out wetlands that can burn underground for months. These slow smoldering fires are especially destructive because they release far more fine particles and several pollutants than typical tropical forest fires, while thick smoke can make them difficult for satellites to detect.

My user feedback board provider increased its price from $15 to $25 to $50/mo, so I built a ~free alternative that does just the few things I need: make a feature request, vote on feature requests from others. There's a paid tier at $2/mo, and I only need ~1% of users to opt-in to pay to offset server costs. Of course, you can request features on Say Toucan using Say Toucan: https://saytoucan.com/b/say-toucan (The name is so dumb and I'm so thrilled with myself. Say Toucan do it!)

Researchers may have found a new way to weaken glioblastoma’s defenses against treatment. Blocking a protein called SET prevented tumors from forming in preclinical models, while targeting related proteins made cancer cells more vulnerable to radiation. The strategy works by restoring activity of PP2A, an enzyme that glioblastoma cells appear to suppress. Human testing will be needed to determine whether the approach is safe and effective.

Then I have to fix the moves one by one. Worse, correcting a move usually gets treated as branching to a new variat…

Hi HN, I built Vibes because I wanted a small sense of company while working on my own projects.

The idea is to glance over and see that a friend is around building something too. Git scanning happens locally.

CowBull is a word game where you have to find the hidden four-letter word. You make guesses and get back the count of exact letter matches (bulls) and partial matches (cows). It’s a bit like Wordle, but you are not told the exact letters which match, only the count of matching letters. Scoring is based on the number of guesses and time used. There is a single player mode and a multi-player mode (no account required). The game source code is at https://github.com/claceio/cowbull . When I was younger, we used to play this game on paper at the back of the classroom during school and college in…
