The practice of editing the genes of embryos remains highly controversial and risky, but Origin Genomics founder Cathy Tie argues its a “moral imperative” to address hereditary diseases.

Hi HN, Ledge is a Markdown notebook that runs shell commands, code, SQL, etc from inside your own notes. I built Ledge because I spend much of my day copy/pasting commands from my notes into the terminal. I was inspired by how much cmux helped me organize my terminals - but there was still a split brain between my notes and frequently run commands. I've been daily-driving it for the past few weeks and use it for deploys, API calls, smoke tests, etc. Ledge runs your real shell just like a termina...

Hello HN, I'm Ajo and I built Strata. I spent 4 years at Netflix solving self service for non-technical business users. I think I cracked it with my unique approach to semantic layer design. The key challenge is balancing expressiveness with ease of use for our non technical colleagues. It just so happens that focus made it work pretty well with LLMs too. Strata is a full stack solution. It includes a semantic layer, dashboards, subscriptions, and google sheets exports. All of it can be done v...

Hey HN, Anders and Tom here. We're building Magnitude, an inference engine for agents that optimizes itself to run as fast as possible on your hardware. It works on Mac, Linux, and Windows on any hardware and is up to 2x faster than llama.cpp. We're both software engineers and previously built an open source browser agent to 4k+ GH stars and 100k+ downloads. We increasingly wanted to run it on local models, but found that no inference engine worked for our use case. Inference engines today all m...

The original Sonos Ace headphones should have been a triumphant entry into a new product category. Instead, they were overshadowed by Sonos's disastrous app redesign. And while the original Ace are well built, sound good, and are incredibly comfortable, they weren't good Sonos headphones: Their flagship feature let you reroute audio from a Sonos soundbar […]

The new Fire TV Stick 4K will be a little easier to set up than Amazon's previous 4K streaming sticks since it no longer requires a power adapter.
