New best story on Hacker News: Show HN: AsteroidOS 2.0 – Nobody asked, we shipped anyway

Show HN: AsteroidOS 2.0 – Nobody asked, we shipped anyway 462 by moWerk | 68 comments on Hacker News. Hi HN, After roughly 8 years of silently rolling 1.1 nightlies, we finally tagged a proper stable 2.0 release. We built this because wrist-sized Linux is genuinely fun to hack on, and because a handful of us think it's worth keeping capable hardware alive long after manufacturers move on. Smartwatches don't really get old — the silicon is basically the same as it was a decade ago. We just keep making it useful for us. No usage stats, no tracking, no illusions of mass adoption. The only real signal we get is the occasional person who appears in our Matrix chat going "hey, it booted on my watch from 2014 and now it's usable again" — and that's plenty.

New best story on Hacker News: Tell HN: Ralph Giles has died (Xiph.org| Rust@Mozilla | Ghostscript)

Tell HN: Ralph Giles has died (Xiph.org| Rust@Mozilla | Ghostscript) 504 by ffworld | 27 comments on Hacker News. It's with much sadness that we announce the passing of our friend and colleague Ralph Giles, or rillian as he was known on IRC. Ralph began contributing to Xiph.org in 2000 and became a core Ghostscript developer in 2001[1]. Ralph made many contributions to the royalty-free media ecosystem, whether it was as a project lead on Theora, serving as release manager for multiple Xiph libraries or maintaining Xiph infrastructure that has been used across the industry by codec engineers and researchers[2]. He was also the first to ship Rust code in Firefox[3] during his time at Mozilla, which was a major milestone for both the language and Firefox itself. Ralph was a great contributor, a kind colleague and will be greatly missed. Official Announcement: https://ift.tt/qYnuiGm... [1]: https://ift.tt/cWQuwd4...
