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
Moar Updatez
To start on a somber note: those of us at UT Austin are in mourning this week for Savitha Shan, an undergrad double major here in economics and information systems, who was murdered over the weekend by an Islamist terrorist who started randomly shooting people on Sixth Street, apparently angry about the war in Iran. Two other innocents were also killed.As it happens, these murders happened just a few hours after the end of my daughter’s bat mitzvah, and in walking distance from the venue.
Quantum stock surges: IonQ stock climbs after earnings beat
IonQ stock surged 23% on Thursday, Feb. 26, last week, buoyed by a solid fourth-quarter and full-year earnings report on Feb. 25, further extending a sharp post-earnings rally. This gives it a year-over-year gain of 54%. The quantum computer manufacturer is emerging as a leader because of the ...

Can thermal noise train a computer? A new framework points to low-power AI
What if the thermal noise that hinders the efficiency of both classical and quantum computers could, instead, be used as a power source? What if computers could make use of the noise instead of ...
Chemists Create Wacky ‘Half-Möbius’ Molecule, Quantum Computers Prove It’s the Real Deal
When Richard Feynman first conceived of quantum computers in the 1980s, he believed they should primarily investigate quantum phenomena. So that’s what a group of chemists did: they used quantum ...
John Martinis, winner of 2025 Nobel Prize in Physics: ‘I wouldn’t want quantum computing to be known for breaking the internet’
Experts are calling for the cryptographic systems on which the entire network depends to be made ready now for the imminent emergence of technologies that will make them vulnerable
IBM scientists unveil the first ever “half-Möbius” molecule, with the help of quantum computing
A team at IBM Research has assembled a strange new ring-shaped molecule that bends around like a more complicated Möbius strip ...

As a quantum network goes live, New Mexico sees its moment
A first-of-its-kind quantum computing network, funded with the help of millions in state funds, is live in. Qunnect, a New York-based quantum computing company, announced last week the ...
Show HN: Ouroboros – Post-quantum P2P messenger with zero servers
After watching too many "privacy" apps get subpoenaed or shut down, I wanted a communication tool that literally cannot be shut down because it has no servers to seize.
Ouroboros is a Rust-based P2P stack with two modes:
1. Live sessions: Two peers connect directly using just a shared passphrase. The passphrase deterministically generates identical network parameters on both sides, so they can find each other without any coordination server.
2. EtherSync spaces: Async file sharing and
Show HN: Go-TUI – a framework for building declarative terminal UIs in Go
I've been building go-tui (https://go-tui.dev), a terminal UI framework for Go inspired by the templ framework for the web (https://templ.guide/). The syntax should be familiar to templ users and is quite different from other terminal frameworks like bubbletea. Instead of imperative widget manipulation or bubbletea's elm architecture, you write HTML-like syntax and Tailwind-style classes that can intermingle with regular Go code in a new .gsx filetype. Then you
Gaia – open-source assistant that does for actions what ChatGPT did for answers
Three years ago, finding information meant opening Google, clicking 4 links, reading, and piecing together an answer yourself. ChatGPT collapsed that into one step.We haven't had that moment for taking action yet.
To set a recurring water reminder today, you still open your todo app, hit New Task, type it out, set a recurrence, and save. To block focus time, you open Calendar, find a slot, create an event, then update your Slack status separately. Every small action is a small tax. They add
Show HN: Kelos – Run Claude —dangerously-skip-permissions on Kubernetes
Kelos is a Kubernetes framework for orchestrating autonomous coding agents. It runs Claude Code, Codex, Gemini, OpenCode, or custom agents safely in isolated, ephemeral pods.The idea is that you define your everyday development workflows as YAML and let them run continuously on Kubernetes. Agent tasks are Kubernetes CRDs, so things like:- Watch for “bug” issues → auto-draft a fix PR- Auto-review incoming pull requests- Auto-triage new issues with labels and priority- Periodically scan the codeba
An offline map using OruxMaps(satellite,routing,3D terrain,GPS and POI)
I wanted to share a setup I’ve been working on over the past few months. The goal was to prepare a complete offline mapping system for an entire country that works with zero internet access.Imagine the internet goes down, or you’re traveling in a remote area with no network coverage. Most map apps become useless because they depend on online services. I wanted something that still works in those situations.Using the Android app OruxMaps (https://play.google.com/store/apps
Ask HN: Alternatives to GH Actions?
Looks like Github actions are having an outage again: https://www.githubstatus.com/We already use blacksmith to not use Github Runners. Highly recommend it if you haven't tried it yet. But we still rely on Github to actually trigger the workflow. With all their constant outages, I was wondering if there are alternatives available? Moving to Gitlab is quite a big migration, so I was wondering if there are ways to mitigate this for now and not relying on GitHub actions to trigg
