The View from Above: The Gemini Visual Acuity Experimentshttps://www.nasa.gov/history/the-view-from-above-the-gemini-visual-acuity-experiments/NASA astronaut L. Gordon Cooper, Jr. took 29 color photographs of the Earth with a 70mm camera as he orbited our planet during the Mercury-Atlas 9 mission in May 1963. Cooper’s view from the window of his Faith 7 spacecraft was spectacular, and he reported that he could see vehicles motoring on dirt roads, smoke-belching trains, […]

Show HN: Bisecto – A minimalist game about cutting shapes into 50/50 halveshttps://bisecto.com/Hey HN,I built Bisecto (https://bisecto.com), a minimalist browser game with one simple mechanic, cutting (bisecting) a procedural 2D shape into two exact 50/50 halves with a single straight line.Confession: I got completely hooked watching those viral reels of people trying to cut fruits and vegetables into perfectly equal halves, and that was my inspiration for this game :D I've been writing code for 12+ years, but for this project I leaned heavily on LLMs to quickly spin up this game, I thought it's going to be quick, but it took me some time (around 2 weeks) to make the game the way I want it to be.A few game modes to try: - Classic: Endless run, you get to choose difficulty and line cutting mode- Arcade mode: You get 3 lives, you have to keep accuracy above 95%.- Daily challenge: A shared daily seed, 10 identical shapes for everyone, see how you rank.- Friends challenges: Create a challenge and send it to your friends and see who is better at cutting shapes in half.Under the hood:

Show HN: LilScript makes JavaScript libraries smallerhttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49374554https://yeargun.github.io/lilscript/LilScript is a typed, compression-first language that compiles into js and sometimes into exec(will be more stable in future). The compiler mangles, reshapes the program into optimized js that happens to be 5-15% smaller (after gzip/br compression or raw) compared to the best performing JS toolchains like oxc/esbuild/terser/..## What has been proven to work with LilScript?- makes VSCode's core js modules 20% smaller on average- makes the world's most performant & small markdown rendering npm library, marked, 5-7% smaller and 10% faster- and many more demos.. works with pretty much any js/ts library## How it is compressing js finer than vite/oxc/terser/esbuild/..### 1.

Show HN: Markdown Buddy – Native macOS Markdown Editor with Quick Look and Xcodehttps://markdownbuddy.inawa.app/I write a lot of project documentation in Markdown, and two things kept annoying me on macOS: Quick Look shows .md files as raw text, and Xcode shows a README as plain source. So I built the app I wanted. Swift and AppKit, 4.8 MB, sandboxed. The editor is a plain NSTextView. The rendered view is WKWebView, so it uses the system engine rather than a bundled browser, which is where the size difference comes from. Quick Look and Finder thumbnails are separate app extensions sharing the same renderer.Beyond preview: open a folder as a workspace and browse every .md in a tree, search across all of them, and see a graph of the links between documents with broken ones flagged. An Xcode Source Editor extension opens the file you are looking at, rendered, from the Editor menu.One implementation detail I found non-obvious. The live preview restyles the NSTextStorage as you type. The hard rule is that it must never touch attributes while an input method is composing, or Japanese, Chinese and Kore

Show HN: Sitmap – a World in Conflict inspired map maker for Cold War scenarioshttps://tomaytotomato.github.io/sitmap/I loved the game World in Conflict (2007)One of those aspects I enjoyed was the maps shown during the loading screens. The colour choices and aesthetics were really striking and made the game even more immersive.Using Claude Fable and some photoshop skills, with a few tweaks here and there. I managed to get something quite useable and probably useless to most people shipped.If you enjoy maps, military, strategy etc, hopefully it is of interest to you.

Offline RAG on iOS with Spatial Integrationhttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49371913I'm the developer behind CartoType. I’ve been working on bridging local language models with offline mapping, and I have just put together a demo of a completely offline Spatial RAG pipeline running natively on an iPhone. The new system is named the CartoType Field Assistant. You can find the website at https://cartotype.comDemo (1m 19s): https://www.youtube.com/shorts/a8yQPn7_jyIUse cases: Any organisation with field technicians or emergency first responders needs complex procedural knowledge tied to physical locations ('assets') where they don't have guaranteed network connectivity. Examples include offshore wind farms, power distribution networks, railway infrastructure, mountain rescue, and military uses.For this demo I query the iPhone app in Airplane mode: "A hiker near Tuolumne Meadows has a dislocated shoulder. What is the reduction protocol, and where is the Tuolumne Meadows Ranger Station?"HOW IT WORKSThe core is a portable C++ engine running vector search across an encrypted

Show HN: Lutefish Stream (Play Music over Internet)https://lutefish.com/Hey all, Disclaimer: I work on embedded software for Lutefish.tldr: If you have good internet and you live within 500 miles of somebody (and ISPs are feeling benevolent that day) you can play music together over the internet (for real tho).I know you've probably seen "make music over the internet but for real this time" presented from a handful of places over the years. We designed a PCB from scratch to tightly couple the audio and networking layers as close as we possibly could, and we are able to get latency numbers as low as 28ms using custom protocol (which allows for seemingly real-time performance with bandmates over the internet).Before you ask, no, it is not an audio interface also (we're working on it). Think of it more like, "point-to-point sound cards with a lot of control over your mix".Don't really know how to do self promotion, but we have devices for sale for $250 usually (rando $200 flash sales sometimes) and there's a $10 / month subscription (2 months free w/ purchase
