Show HN: Radius – A Meetup.com Alternative
Hello HN! I'm relaunching Radius [1] - far too long after the original Show HN [2] (I'll blame the day job for that). Radius started out from my frustration with not knowing what was going on around me. The initial plan was to "show all and every type of event" from big to small, but over time I narrowed the focus to communities, groups, events, and helping people connect through them. The initial Show HN gave me 150+ comments (surprising, looking back, given how terrible the plain Bootstrap UI...

Humans, not rogue AI, are still the biggest cybersecurity risk to energy systems
Before recent high-profile hacks raised the specter of AI possibly "killing all humans," our energy systems were already disturbingly vulnerable to cyberattack - and the risk is growing.

Building an evidence-first multi-agent system: 720 paired missions, rollback, and strict claim boundaries
I am an independent R&D developer building SSI V5 , an experimental multi-agent architecture focused on evidence, provenance, consolidation, and rollback.
The implementation itself is proprietary. The public GitHub repository is an evidence and review mirror : it contains sanitized reports, run summaries, test artifacts, and reviewer guidance rather than the private source code.

7 Checks to Make Before Sending Gerber Files to PCB Manufacturing
Exporting a PCB design is not the same as verifying the manufacturing package.
Your board may look correct in the original design application, but the fabricator normally works from exported Gerber, drill and supporting files. A missing outline, displaced drill file or incorrect layer can therefore survive unnoticed until somebody inspects the actual deliverable.
The safest habit is simple:
Review the files you are going to send, not only the design from which they were generated.
