MIT engineers develop a magnetic transistor for more energy-efficient electronics

Transistors, the building blocks of modern electronics, are typically made of silicon. Because it’s a semiconductor, this material can control the flow of electricity in a circuit. But silicon has fundamental physical limits that restrict how compact and energy-efficient a transistor can be.MIT researchers have now replaced silicon with a magnetic semiconductor, creating a magnetic transistor that could enable smaller, faster, and more energy-efficient circuits. The material’s magnetism strongly

Show HN: Marky – A lightweight Markdown viewer for agentic coding

Hey HN,In this age of agentic coding I've found myself spending a lot of time reviewing markdown files. Whether it's plans or documentation that I've asked my agent to generate for me, it seems that I spend more time reading markdown than code.I've tried a few different solutions to make it easier to read such as Obsidian however I've found their Vault system to be quite limiting for this use case and I've found TUI solutions to not quite be as friendly to read as I

Ask HN: What pricing model works for high COGs side project?

So I've been working on this app that's a dashboard + taskbar widget for commute times. I made it for myself so I wouldnt have to search for it all the time by googling it. I was honestly surprised it didnt really exist but the reason is now obvious to me. It's because live traffic data is super expensive. Around $2.50 / 1k calls from my provider.So each round trip route would cost around $4/month (2 calls per route * one call per hour * 24 hours * 30 days) This is quite

Show HN: Xata, open-source Postgres platform with copy-on-write branches

Hi HN,This is Tudor from Xata. You can think of Xata as an open-source, self-hosted, alternative to Aurora/Neon. Highlight features are:- Fast copy-on-write branching.- Automatic scale-to-zero and wake-up on new connections.- 100% Vanilla Postgres. We run upstream Postgres, no modifications.- Production grade: high availability, read replicas, automatic failover/switchover, upgrades, backups with PITR, IP filtering, etc.You can self-host it, or you can use our [cloud service](https:&#x

Show HN: Mabon – AI agent that finds jobs continuously and shows strong matches

Hey HNI'd love to get your feedback on Mabon.ai.I think job search is quite tedious for most people. They scan or subscribe to multiple job boards that often send jobs based on just a few keywords, without actually understanding the user's intent or what kind of job they 'really' want. Most of these job boards also seem to optimize for sending a high volume of matches rather than being targeted.Mabon first understands the user's background and preferences, and then finds

Show HN: Sfsym – Export Apple SF Symbols as Vector SVG/PDF/PNG

I found myself reaching for SF Symbols' 'Copy Image As…' quite often during agentic design sessions, so I made a command-line tool that the agent can use by itself. It exports Apple SF Symbols as SVG, PDF, or PNG.The vector paths come directly from macOS's symbol renderer. Internally it reaches a private ivar on NSSymbolImageRep to get the CUINamedVectorGlyph, draws into a CGPDFContext, then walks the PDF content stream back out as SVG `d` commands. The output matches what th

Ask HN: Agents Craving Context

Hey, I was an early adopter of the Cursor IDE and pretty much installed it day 1 of it's public release. Like many I've been using LLMs to help accelerate the writing of code in my own company and side projects and have been quite optimistic and satisfied with the quality and experience of using the Cursor IDE chat -> composer -> agents to enhance the developer experience.However, recently it seems like there has been a shift in how agents work (I am mainly referring to using Cur

Norwegian Man Cured of HIV by His Brother’s Stem Cells

Fewer than 10 people worldwide have eradicated the virus with stem cells. But this case was special—no one knew his brother’s cells carried a protective mutation until transplant day. When the 63-year-old man received a bone marrow transplant from his brother, he got a two-for-one deal. The therapy was meant to tame a life-threatening blood disorder. But it also wiped out all signs of HIV, which he had been battling for 14 years.Called the Oslo patient, he joins a small group of people wit

Quantum ‘Jamming’ Explores the Truly Fundamental Principles of Nature

For the past few decades, researchers have understood that quantum computers should eventually be able to crack the widely used codes that secure much of the digital world. To protect against this fate, they’ve spent years developing new codes that appear to be safe from future safecrackers armed with quantum computers. At the same time, they’ve also devised ingenious ways to use the rules of…Source

Quantum-informed AI improves long-term turbulence forecasts while using far less memory

An AI model informed by calculations from a quantum computer can better predict the behavior of a complex physical system over the long term than current best models that use only conventional computers, according to a new study led by UCL (University College London) researchers. The findings, published in the journal Science Advances, could improve models predicting how liquids and gases move and interact (fluid dynamics), used in areas ranging from climate science to transport, medicine and en

This chain of atoms can detect electric fields with stunning precision

A new quantum sensing approach could dramatically improve how scientists measure low-frequency electric fields, a task that has long been limited by bulky setups and blurry resolution. Instead of relying on traditional vapor-cell methods, researchers developed a system using chains of highly sensitive Rydberg atoms that respond collectively to electric fields. As the field shifts, it subtly changes how these atoms interact, allowing both the strength and direction of the field to be decoded with
