What if a tiny black hole passed through Earth?
Black holes usually bring to mind gigantic monsters lurking in the depths of space. They swallow stars, bend light, and contain enough gravity to trap almost anything. But what if the most dangerous black hole was not enormous at all? Imagine a black hole smaller than a coin. Despite its tiny size, it has the […]

Show HN: Neural Particle Automata
Neural CAs model self-organizing pattern formation on grids. Now the grid is gone. Each cell is an agentic particle that can move freely in space and change its state.<p>While each particle follows a simple shared rule, many together can grow complex morphologies or form intricate patterns. The resulting particle system as a whole can regenerate from damage and exhibits surprising emergent behavior.<p>Try cutting the lizard and watch it heal itself!
Show HN: Localish – Your Localhost in the Cloud
I launched quickish.website last week and have been adding more and more as I use it every day for my day job. I got a lot of really positive feedback in other places and a number of people signed up. With that said, there was still a lot of stuff I want to add and I can see a lot of possibilities with this.TLDR on Quickish: A super easy to use site hosting service inspired by Shopify's internal Quick service. You can host a React app or a simple HTML page, generated from AI or written by h
