Course Correction or Controlled Crash? Inside NASA's Artemis Overhaul - Part 1https://www.spacedaily.com/reports/Course_Correction_or_Controlled_Crash_Inside_NASAs_Artemis_Overhaul_Part_1_999.htmlLos Angeles CA (SPX) Mar 09, 2026 NASA says it has finally found the 'back to basics' recipe to get Americans back on the Moon by 2028.

Look a little closer, though, and the same changes read like a managed soft-landing for a program that is structurally broken andMar 9, 2026 5:07 AM

Show HN: E8-Matrix: open-source physical particle discovery platformhttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47206366I’d like to share E8-Matrix - a open-source physical particle discovery platform (recent program paper titled “From a High-Symmetry Sector to Testable Observables: An E8-Motivated Projection Program”) and would greatly appreciate any constructive feedback from the community.The work outlines a top‑down computational framework that connects a high‑symmetry ⊇ E8 structure to 3+1D observables via an operational projection Π.Instead of ad‑hoc effective shifts, the goal is to trace predictions back to explicit representation content and symmetry selection rules.- Proton decay: A spectrum‑driven “Track A” scan identifies a golden point configuration yielding τ_p ≈ 1.22×10⁴¹ years (for p → e⁺π⁰) while keeping the α₃ mismatch at the unification scale below 2.7% (1‑loop piecewise running). - Dark photon: The model predicts a light dark‑photon region m_A' ∼ 10⁻⁴–1 eV, ε ≳ 10⁻⁸, illustrated against an order‑of‑magnitude IAXO‑like reach. - Framework: The paper details the E8 → A7 × U(1)' → SU(5) →Mar 1, 2026 1:07 PM

Show HN: Small "AI slop" classifier running in a browser extensionhttps://github.com/distil-labs/distil-ai-slop-detectorWe used our distillation platform & a Kaggle dataset to produce a tiny (270M Gemma base) model to classify text into "AI slop"/not classes.It's fun to play with and was fun to build, too.Annoyingly formal, human-written text (e.g. an ML paper I wrote back in 2015) tends to get misclassified (try "Manipulated images lose believability if the user's edits fail to account for shadows. We propose a method that makes removal and editing of soft shadows easy. Soft shadows are ubiquitous, but remain notoriously difficult to extract and manipulate. We posit that soft shadows can be segmented, and therefore edited, by learning a mapping function for image patches that generates shadow mattes. We validate this premise by removing soft shadows from photographs with only a small amount of user input").Feb 4, 2026 4:57 PM

Show HN: Logos of Aether – Rebuilding Physics Without Zero or Empty Spacehttps://github.com/chrisnchips42-blip/Logos-of-Aether-A-Measurement-Theoretic-Foundation-for-PhysicsBackground: I’ve spent the last few years writing Logos of Aether (500+ pages, open source), which attempts to derive the Standard Model using a monadic, cellular-automata approach rather than standard continuous calculus.The Core Idea: Modern physics breaks down at singularities because our math allows for infinite density (division by zero). I replaced standard addition with "Plenum Addition" (⊕), a saturating operation similar to velocity addition in Special Relativity, but applied to information density.The Math: Instead of linear addition (1+1=2), distinctions add via: x ⊕ y = (x + y) / (1 + xy/π²)This forces a hard ceiling on information density (π), naturally eliminating black hole singularities and "infinite energy" bugs in QFT without needing renormalization.Why I'm posting: I have the theoretical derivation (including a geometric derivation of the Electron Mass as an 11th harmonic resonance), but I am moving from "Paper" to "Engine." I am looking for contributors interested iJan 5, 2026 9:15 PM

Show HN: HackTheNews – iOS 26 Liquid Glass Hacker News Client with AI Summarieshttps://apps.apple.com/us/app/hack-the-news-ai-hn-reader/id6447095897Hey HN!I've been maintaining HackTheNews (a native iOS client for Hacker News) for a while now, and with iOS 26 dropping its new "Liquid Glass" design language, I couldn't resist doing a full visual overhaul.What's new: - Complete redesign using iOS 26's Liquid Glass materials - Translucent, layered UI that adapts to your wallpaper - New glass-style navigation and tab bars - Refined typography and spacing for the new aestheticImplementation notes for fellow iOS devs: - Used the new `.glassEffect()` modifiers throughout - Had to rethink some hierarchy decisions – Liquid Glass works best with fewer nested containersThe before/after difference is pretty striking. Happy to share more technical details if anyone's curious about adopting Liquid Glass in their own apps.Would love to hear your feedback – especially from fellow HN readers on what features you'd like to see next. Always open to suggestions!Jan 5, 2026 6:31 PM

Show HN: I built a fast RSS reader in Zighttps://github.com/superstarryeyes/hysWell, I certainly tried. I had to, because it has a certain quirk inspired by "digital minimalism."The quirk is that it only allows you to fetch new articles once per day (or X days).Why? Let me explain...I want my internet content to be like a boring newspaper. You get it in the morning, and you read the whole thing while sipping your morning coffee, and then you're done! No more new information for today. No pings, no alerts, peace, quiet, zen, etc.But with that, I needed it to be able to fetch all articles from my hundreds of feeds in one sitting. This is where Zig and curl optimisations come in. I tried to do all the tricks in the book. If I missed something, let me know!First off, I'm using curl multi for the network layer. The cool thing is it automatically does HTTP/2 multiplexing, which means if your feeds are hosted on the same CDN it reuses the same connection. I've got it configured to handle 50 connections total with up to 6 per host, which seems to be the sweet spot beforeDec 16, 2025 7:55 PM
