THIS WEBSITE LETS YOU SIT IN THE WINDOW SEAT OF ANY PLANE FLYING OVER YOUR HOUSE RIGHT NOW.
no download. no app. no account.
you open the tab and you are in the sky.
it's called Stowaway. stowaway.live.
it finds your location. pulls every plane and satellite passing over you right now. click one. hit "Stow away" and you are in the window seat. real terrain. real weather. real light for this exact minute.
the guy who made it, jheising, said on Hacker News he built it because as a kid he would watch planes cross the evening sky and try to imagine what the world looked like from up there. Stowaway is that, without the airport.
441 points on Hacker News. people are not bookmarking it. they are flying in it.
just a website that lets a normal person see Earth from a stranger's window seat for a few minutes.
we built the internet and somehow one of the best things on it right now is still:
open tab.
sit in a stranger's plane.
watch the sunset from 35,000 feet.

Notebooks in @GeminiApp are now 100% rolled out in Europe!
We're so excited to hear what you think! Thank you for your patience 🙏
Last year, we integrated into the @GeminiApp by allowing you to upload your notebooks as sources. Now, we’re taking our relationship to the next level 🏠 ♥️
Starting today, you can now:
— Access all of your personal, unshared notebooks directly inside the Gemini App
— Use your chats with Gemini as sources in new or existing unshared notebooks
We're rolling out notebooks in Gemini today, starting with Google AI Ultra, Pro, and Plus subscribers on the web. In the coming weeks, we'll expand access to mobile, more countries across Europe, and to free users.

Personal update: I've joined Anthropic. I think the next few years at the frontier of LLMs will be especially formative. I am very excited to join the team here and get back to R&D. I remain deeply passionate about education and plan to resume my work on it in time.

THIS GUY BUILT AN AUTOMATED PIGEON DEFENSE SYSTEM FOR HIS BALCONY
pigeons kept nesting on his balcony so he engineered a full detection and deterrent system
here's how it works:
1\ camera captures video in real time
2\ an AI model identifies the pigeon in real time
3\ a water gun mounted on servo motors turns toward it
4\ sprays the pigeon automatically
the hardware:
> an orange pi 5 running the detection model
> a disassembled electric battery-driven water gun
> USB camera
> 2 servo motors for aiming
> resistors and a transistor to trigger the water gun
the detection runs on an AI vision model (yolo world v2) using the rockchip 3588's built in neural processing unit.
the best part is that it's not limited to pigeons. because it uses open vocabulary detection, you can reprogram the target to any object. squirrels, cats, raccoons, whatever is messing with your balcony
fully automated, runs 24/7, no manual intervention needed
Readers added context they thought people might want to know

I've made a super-simple website, where you can check which cities lay on the same parallel (and also the mirrored parallel on other hemisphere).
You can expect the same sunlight hours (longer nights, shorter days, etc) and similar sun power there.
