Samsung’s Onyx Cinema could be great – if more films supported it

OPINION: I can’t say that I’ve witnessed Samsung’s new cinema technology in the flesh, but from the people who have seen it, it’s pretty good. Problem is, you can’t watch many films in the format. A brief catch-up on Onyx Cinema for those unfamiliar with it. It’s a cinema screen made up of LED modules [...]

WhatsApp has ads now, but only in the Updates tab

It has been a long time coming — seven years since Meta first announced its plan to do so, in fact — but ads are starting to appear in WhatsApp as of Monday.

Show HN: Socket-call – Call socket.io events like normal JavaScript functions

Hello HN,

I built a Typescript library (named socket-call, for lack of a more sexy name) whose goal is to be able to call socket.io events as regular functions.

So you declare your server-side like so:

  ...
  const listenEvents = (services: UserServices) => ({
    // Add your events here, the name of the event is the name of the function
    login: async (username: string) => {
      services._socket.data.user = { username };
      console.log(`User ${username} logged in`);

Show HN: dk – A script runner and cross-compiler, written in OCaml

And for developing software skills, it was obvious that both the students and I had to have a productive software environment where we could work together. That theme of experienced/inexperi

Show HN: Zeekstd – Rust Implementation of the ZSTD Seekable Format

Hello,

I would like to share a Rust implementation of the Zstandard seekable format I've been working on.

Regular zstd compressed files consist of a single frame, meaning you have to start decompression at the beginning. The seekable format splits compressed data into a series of independent frames, each compressed individually, so that decompression of a section in the middle of an archive only requires zstd to decompress at most a frame's worth of extra data, instead of the entire arch
