Dust and water spotted close to giant black holehttps://www.esa.int/Science_Exploration/Space_Science/Webb/Dust_and_water_spotted_close_to_giant_black_holeUsing the NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope, an international team of astronomers have discovered that dust and water can form and survive surprisingly close to the supermassive black hole at the centre of our Milky Way galaxy. The observations reveal that the evolved star IRS 3 continues to enrich its surroundings with newly formed material despite the intense radiation environment around Sagittarius A*.Aug 11, 2026 8:00 AM

Show HN: Keen Code – an agentic-engineered coding agenthttps://github.com/mochow13/keen-codeHello community!I am here to share a coding agent I have built solo from scratch using agentic engineering. Written in Go, it's a proper coding agent, has features you expect from a useful agent for your daily work, with a minimal and simple UI.I have named it Keen Code. The repo is here: https://github.com/mochow13/keen-codeEven though it started as an experiment, it is now a full-fledged coding agent for real software engineering work. It supports multiple providers, skills, MCPs, multi-agent orchestration through subagents, automatic compaction, etc.I have been using it for real production-grade work myself, and also for developing itself.Notably, I have worked on two separate ideas in this coding agent:1. Turn MemoryIn a multi-turn conversation, tool outputs are removed, only tool call traces are retained. Within a single agent loop, agent sees full tool results but in the next turn, it doesn't see the tool results anymore.The greatest benefit of this approach is that a lot of toolAug 10, 2026 9:47 PM

Show HN: My local climbing gym from photogrammetryhttps://kmcheung12.github.io/climb-preview/tour/ae43c6e5Commented on yesterday's Ask HN: What are you working on? (August 2026), thought I might as well submit a Show HN.If you see climbing world cup/championship, there is this 3D modelling thing [1]. I want that for my weekly bouldering.I scanned my local climbing gym into 3D mesh using iphone. Built a simple editor to trim, merge, move/rotate meshes. You can interact with the mesh, view routes, view climb, etc. So this is unlike many gaussian splatting projects where the main use is for viewing. I built a pipeline in updating climbing walls. Climbing routes are manually annotated. Climbing videos are registered against the 3D mesh. Based on one input video, body positions resolved into 3D/4D space. you can view the body landmarks from different angle.COLMAP, OpenMVS, fastapi, svelte, database is just local json files. A read only build is exported so I can host on github pageIf you climb, or know someone who climbs, would love to hear your feedback. Do you usually record your climbs? If IAug 10, 2026 9:39 PM

Show HN: Fun Web page 3D visualization of laundry room statushttps://www.aisloperator.com/brickoven-estates-laundry-room/By default, this shows simulated data. It can show real data, but we don't want to hug-of-death the laundry company IoT.Click on a machine, to see how the apartment building attendant responds to people leaving their laundry for hours in high-contention machines.This was a collaboration with Claude Code. Sometimes Claude wasted time frustratingly, sometimes Claude saved lots of time. The end product is good enough, the Easter eggs were fun, and it was completed in less time than I could've done it myself.Aug 10, 2026 9:07 PM

Show HN: Bio Tools – install drug design tools easilyhttps://github.com/David-OConnor/bio_toolsI made a CLI program, Rust and Python lib that makes it easy to install and run bio / drug design tools. (structure prediction, sequence prediction, property prediction etc).You install it with `pip install bio_tools_app`, then run commands like `bio_tools install alphafold3` or `bio_tools run proteinmpnn --version` etc.This smooths over the complexities of installing these tools, which often depend on [mutually exclusive] python environments in a mix of PyPi-capable and Conda. I use it as a shared library between a python web app and a rust standalone GUI program. (Molchanica)Aug 10, 2026 3:55 PM

Show HN: Edgi – Letterboxd or Strava for your brainhttps://app.edgi.tv/Hi HNExcited to share edgi.tv - an educational media platform where the things you learn accumulate into a visual map of your intellectual interests. The experiment is whether you can build a consumer product around intellectual identity, something like Letterboxd or Strava but for your brain.The main entry point is a curated TikTok-style feed that surfaces vids from creators like Kurzgezagt, VSauce, AstroAlexandra, Cleo Abram, 3Blue1Brown, etymologynerd, etc with interactive games accessible on top of the videos. You can also create podcasts, quizzes, etc with AI on any topic you’re interested in and earn XP towards concepts.Concepts are the unit that connect all media together and create the knowledge graph and power the rec algo. As you engage with a concept, you have a chance to earn a Concept Card (a Pokemon-style collectible for that idea). The concepts then accumulate on a mind map, which doubles as a social surface so you can see what friends are interested in and where your inAug 10, 2026 1:14 PM
