5 great Amazon Prime benefits you’re probably not using

Let’s address the elephant in the room: Amazon Prime membership costs aren’t getting any cheaper. My credit card just caught the brunt of the yearly auto-renewal.

Withings' Omina is its vision for the future of bathroom scales

Concept devices are always tricky. For every one that gets turned into a real product a year later there are a thousand disappointments. Maybe the concept can’t be mass-produced affordably enough to make it viable to the business. Maybe the technology isn’t reliable enough to really make good on the promises its creators made during the glossy launch. And sometimes, it was never anything more than a bit of Kabuki to juice the stock price or lure in some new investors.

Show HN: LogLayer – Unified logger that routes logs to various logging libraries

As a longtime TypeScript/Node.js developer, I've often faced challenges with logging—choosing, using, and maintaining the right logger for various projects. While most loggers offer the usual methods like "info", "warn", and "error", they vary significantly in how they handle structured metadata or Error objects. This can lead to ad-hoc solutions, like serializing errors or writing custom pipelines, just to get logs formatted correctly.
