Ancient impact may explain moons contrasting sidesTokyo, Japan (SPX) Mar 05, 2026 For decades scientists have puzzled over why the moons two hemispheres look so different despite sharing a common origin in the early solar system. The near side that always faces Earth is dominated by dark flat volcanic plains called maria that create the familiar man in the moon pattern seen with the naked eye. In contrast the far side has a much thicker crust and appears as a rugged hea

Lunar dust model maps how charged grains stick to spacecraftTokyo, Japan (SPX) Mar 05, 2026 Researchers from Beijing Institute of Technology, China Academy of Space Technology, and the Chinese Academy of Sciences have developed a theoretical model that links electrostatic forces and contact mechanics to describe how low-velocity charged lunar dust particles either adhere to or escape from spacecraft surfaces within a surrounding plasma sheath. The work aims to clarify mechanisms that d

Show HN: Mozilla.ai introduces Clawbolt, an AI Assistant for the tradesHey everyone, Nathan here: I'm an MLE at Mozilla.ai. I can't tell you how many things around my house I've been saying "I would really like to have somebody take a look at that". But here's the problem: all the people in the trades are extremely overwhelmed with work. There is a lot to be done and not enough people to do it.One of my best friends runs his own general contracting business. He's extremely talented and wants to spend his time working on drywall, building staircases, and listening to Mumford and Sons while throwing paint onto a ceiling. But you know what gets in the way of that wonderful lifestyle that all us software engineers dream about?ADMINISTRATION.He thought running his own business would be 85% show up and do the work, but turns out a large chunk of the time is spent talking to clients to schedule time to get an estimate, working with home management companies to explain the details of an invoice, and generally just manage all of the information that he's gathering

Show HN: Local Emulator for Google Cloud WorkflowsIMAGE
github.com• Mar 2, 2026• 1 min read
Show HN: Local Emulator for Google Cloud WorkflowsGoogle Cloud Workflows has no official emulator. The dev cycle is: edit YAML, deploy to GCP, trigger, check logs. Repeat for every change. I built an open-source emulator in Go that runs locally: docker run -p 8787:8787 -p 8788:8788 \ -v $(pwd)/workflows:/workflows \ -e WORKFLOWS_DIR=/workflows \ ghcr.io/lemonberrylabs/gcw-emulator:latest What it does: - Watches your workflow directory and hot-reloads on save - Full REST and gRPC API compatibility (same endpoints, same request/response format) - Workflow http.* steps call your local services — so you can run your entire orchestration stack on localhost - Parallel execution, subworkflows, try/except/retry, expression engine - Most of the standard library: http, sys, text, json, base64, math, list, map, time, uuid, events, retry - Built-in web UI at /ui for triggering executions and inspecting results - CI-friendly: set WORKFLOWS_EMULATOR_HOST=localhost:8787 in your test env What it doesn't do: googleapis.* connectors (mock them with loc

Show HN: I built open source Gmail organizer because I refused to pay $30/monthFor the past few weeks I was looking for a decent Gmail tool but everything good costs $25-30/month and forces you to leave your Gmail inbox entirely. I also didn't trust where my email data was going. So I built NeatMail. It lives inside your Gmail, no new inbox to learn. What it does: - Auto-labels incoming emails instantly (Payments, University, Work etc — custom or pre-made) - Drafts replies automatically for emails that need a response, right inside Gmail - Everything is customizable — fonts, signature, labels, privacy settings The model is built in-house. Open source so you can read every line. Your data never hits a third party server. It's in beta. Looking for honest feedback from people who live in their inbox.

Show HN: Epstein-Search – Local, AI-Powered Search Engine for the Epstein FilesIMAGE

Show HN: Epstein-Search – Local, AI-Powered Search Engine for the Epstein FilesHi HN, I built epstein-search, an open-source Python CLI and library to run semantic search and RAG over the publicly released Epstein Files (unsealed court documents, depositions, FBI reports, and flight logs). I wanted a way to easily navigate through these thousands of pages of unstructured legal PDFs without relying on a paid third-party service or sending data back and forth to a cloud provider. How it works under the hood: Running epstein-search setup downloads ~100K pre-computed document chunks and embeddings (using all-MiniLM-L6-v2) based on the public 20K document corpus. It imports these into zvec (a local vector database) so the index is ready in about a minute. Standard search (epstein-search search) embeds your query locally using sentence-transformers and does a vector similarity search. This step is 100% offline and requires no API keys. For the conversational RAG mode (epstein-search chat or ask), it uses LiteLLM. You can point it to an Ollama or LM Studio instance for

NASA announces overhaul of Artemis lunar program amid technical delaysCape Canaveral (AFP) Feb 27, 2026 NASA on Friday abruptly said it was shaking up its Artemis lunar program that has suffered multiple delays in recent years, a bid to ensure Americans can return to the Moon's surface by 2028. That goal remains unchanged, but the US space agency is shifting its flight lineup to include a test mission before an eventual lunar landing to improve launch "muscle memory," NASA administrator Jared

NASA rolls Moon rocket off launchpad for repairsWashington, United States (AFP) Feb 25, 2026 NASA on Wednesday was rolling its towering Moon rocket back to its hangar for repairs, after windows for liftoff were pushed back over technical issues. The US space agency said it would roll its 322-foot (98-meter) SLS rocket off the launchpad in Cape Canaveral, Florida after teams detected issues with helium flow. The decision means further delays for the highly anticipated Artemis 2 m

Show HN: Tswap–Yubikey-backed secret injection for IaC and AI-assisted workflowsIMAGE

Show HN: Tswap–Yubikey-backed secret injection for IaC and AI-assisted workflowsI built tswap after noticing that Claude Code, while genuinely useful for managing a Kubernetes cluster, was pulling plaintext secrets from every manifest it touched. I wanted the AI to be able to do its job without ever seeing the actual values.tswap keeps secrets in an AES-encrypted vault file on disk. The decryption key is derived from a YubiKey via HMAC challenge-response. At init you pair two YubiKeys — either unlocks the vault, so you have no single point of hardware failure.Config files use a comment-based placeholder that keeps them valid YAML: stringData: DB_PASSWORD: # tswap: db-password Deployment is a pipe: tswap apply values.yaml | helm upgrade myapp ./chart -f - The privilege split is the key design decision: `apply`, `run`, and `check` need no elevation (AI agent gets these). `get`, `list`, `delete`, and `export` require sudo/admin (human gets these). The AI can deploy; it can't read or enumerate secrets.Other features: burn tracking for rotation, `redact` for stripping
