TikTok Notes is shutting down as Lemon8 steps in

TikTok is shutting down TikTok Notes—wait, you didn’t even know it existed? Well, that explains a lot.

TikTok Notes, the platform’s short-lived attempt to take on Instagram (just as Instagram Reels was built to mimic TikTok), is officially being retired. Launched in limited markets like Canada, Australia, and Vietnam last year, the photo-sharing app let users post images with captions—simple enough, but apparently not compelling enough.

Users are now being notified that T

This gap persists despite women making up the majority of the content creator space. In 2024, 72% of inf

The world’s smallest pacemaker is injectable and powered by light

Engineers at Northwestern University have developed the world’s smallest pacemaker. It’s so small, as a matter of fact, that it fits inside the tip of a syringe. This means that it’s injectable, so patients could potentially avoid a painful surgery.

Show HN: The C3 programming language (C alternative language)

Get it from here: https://github.com/c3lang/c3c

In 2019, while contributing to the C2 language, I started up "C3" as a pet project while waiting for pull requests to be approved...

Now it's 6 years later and C3 well on its way to 1.0, having released 0.7.0 last week.

What it adds to C is among other things:
