A Gigantic Jet Caught on Camera: A Spritacular Moment for NASA Astronaut Nicole Ayers!https://science.nasa.gov/science-research/heliophysics/a-gigantic-jet-caught-on-camera-a-spritacular-moment-for-nasa-astronaut-nicole-ayers/Astronaut Captures Rare Gigantic Jet from Space On July 3, 2025, NASA astronaut Nichole Ayers photographed an extraordinary sight from the International Space Station — a rare gigantic jet, a powerful electrical discharge shooting from the top of a thunderstorm into the upper atmosphere. Often mistaken for sprites, these towering lightning events bridge clouds and space, depositing massive electrical charges. Learn how gigantic jets differ from other Transient Luminous Events and how you can submit your own sightings to Spritacular.org.

Show HN: Raspberry Pi with portable touch monitor with a single USB-C cablehttps://www.getubo.com/post/touch-display-on-raspberry-pi-with-a-single-usb-c-cableRaspberry Pi only exposes HDMI display ports.That means every time I want to connect a monitor to the Pi I have to power my monitor using a separate power adapter.I use portable monitors a lot and wished I could just use one USB-C cable to both power the monitor and send video signals.One of my portable displays also has touch support which works when I connect it to my Macbook.I wanted to also get touch display working with a single USB-C cable setup. This would allow me to put my Home Assistant dashboard on it and control everything with touch.So I embarked on a prototyping journey and got this setup working.I am designing a compact adapter board that will add this capability to Raspberry Pi 4 and 5.I am documenting my design and prototyping journey on my blog and Youtube. This design will be open source with KiCAD files published.

Launch HN: Design Arena (YC S25) – Head-to-head AI benchmark for aestheticshttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=44878257Hi HN, I’m Grace from Design Arena (https://www.designarena.ai/) - we’re building a crowdsourced benchmark for AI-generated visuals (websites, images, video, and more). We put AI models and builder tools in head-to-head comparisons that get voted on by real users from around the world. Think “Hot or Not” for the AI era :)(Btw, when we say real users we mean real users, so you may get a captcha on the site. Sorry, but we have to use every bot protection available! We only want human ratings, for obvious reasons.)Here’s a demo video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vPyEQnuVgeIWe didn’t set out to build this - we were actually working on an AI game engine. But we found that models sucked at look-and-feel. Even when the output code was usually functional, most visual aspects lacked the soul that makes great graphics feel alive.So we built a this-or-that game, just for ourselves, to figure out which generated outputs had the best graphics. To our surprise, that turned out to be more excitin

Show HN: Joinable's RAG-in-a-Box – fastest way to build a RAG App for your datahttps://www.joinable.ai/rag-in-a-boxHey HN, I’m Julia, my team and I are building Rag-in-a-Box (https://www.joinable.ai/rag-in-a-box), hosted RAG service that let’s builders of any skill level launch their own RAG app loaded with their own data in minutes.[ What can you do ] 1. Load your documents (PDFs, CSV, PPTs, Word Docs, etc) and make them searchable instantly. All your data stays private and encrypted.2. Choose latest open source LLM (Llama 4, Deepseek, GPT-oss, etc) to interact with your docs3. Access your hosted RAG via API - build your own custom front end or integrate with your existing product / service.[ Why we built it ] 1. I love Notebook LM, but it has limitations: - you stuck with using Gemini models - no API - I wanted to integrate my notebook with my other apps but couldn't2. Prior to this my teammate Brian was Head of AI at a public software company, teams across the organization constantly asked him to build various RAG apps for internal use (searching marketing docs, pulling financial information, et

Ask HN: Are my wife and I the only schmucks working in corporate America?https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=44870881I’m a software engineer with 8 years in the industry, currently at an R&D lab as a staff software engineer. My wife’s an accountant. Across every job I’ve ever had — and every job she’s had — there’s a pattern that’s so consistent it’s starting to feel like we’re losing our minds:We are constantly overworked and relatively underpaid… while the majority of our peers are chronically under-worked and wildly overpaid.At my current job, I’m now starting work at 6 AM and wrapping up around 5:30 or 6 PM, five days a week. It’s meeting after meeting, plus deep technical work that actually moves the needle. And in the middle of this, my boss will randomly ping me for “status updates,” as if I might be kicking back on the beach instead of drowning in deadlines.Meanwhile, the managerial class — from what I can tell — spends their days in “alignment sessions” and “strategy syncs”, sends a few vague emails, and leverages the work of their teams to look busy. This specifically is something I've noti

Show HN: Generative Graphics LLM Benchmarkhttps://www.ggbench.com/I’ve been obsessed with code-driven graphics since my first ellipse() in Processing. There’s something magical about watching a few lines of code bloom into motion—clean, crisp, and totally reproducible. With GGBench, I’m turning that obsession into a public benchmark for AI-generated graphics.GGBench is a benchmarking platform to compare graphics produced by AI—especially code that renders visuals (still and animated). You vote on side-by-side outputs, and we rank models with an ELO system (the same concept chess uses). It’s simple, transparent, and designed to push the whole field forward.Why this benchmark needs to exist Most LLMs are fantastic at writing code, but they’re basically flying blind: they can’t actually see what they produce. They output p5.js or Three.js scripts and call it a day. Whether that code renders beautifully—or at all—has been tricky to evaluate at scale.Meanwhile, video diffusion models chew through compute to produce every pixel of every frame. Cool tech, b

Show HN: Job Shield – a job trust verification platformhttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=44859840We built JobShield after running into multiple scam job listings while job hunting. Many of these scams were sophisticated enough to collect personal data or even impersonate legitimate employers before anyone noticed.The problem: Job scams are increasingly common and costly. In Singapore alone, job scams caused losses of over SGD 156 million last year. Current protections are reactive, they kick in only after victims have reported a listing, by which point data is already harvested.What I built: JobShield is a prototype that scans job listings in real time using rule-based checks and pattern matching to flag high-risk or suspicious posts before they go live. It can run as a standalone tool or integrate with job boards and government portals.Technical details: Built as a standalone SaaS with future middleware capabilities, Flags risky patterns like requests for personal documents without proper credentials, Designed for scalable monitoring across millions of listings and multiple regio

Show HN: AI feedback on system design diagramshttps://system-design-6m8.pages.dev/Hey everyone,I made a tool to practice System Design for technical interviews.I am currently practicing System Design interviews and honestly this is not my forte. Since I am also trying to keep my programming skills sharp and get more products to show off in my portfolio, I thought maybe I could implement a tool that would help people practice this kind of interview as well.It seems most of people preparing for such interviews are using:* videos of recorded practice interviews * books (especially Designing Data-Intensive Applications) * mock interviews with FAANG engineers ($$)The goal of this tool is to provide a whiteboard to the user, then use AI (Gemini) to assess the user submission with respect to some metadata about the problem that guide the LLM about what a good solution should look like.Not selling anything, there is no paywall, no login, not asking for email etc. For now, I'm just trying to see if someone else finds this useful, and if this idea got legs.
