Telescope is a web application for exploring log data stored in ClickHouse databases, offering intuitive filtering, searching, and analysis capabilities. The platform provides multiple connection management, customizable visualizations, and GitHub-based authentication with permission controls. Currently in development, Telescope plans to implement additional features like custom SQL queries, live log trailing, and expanded authentication methods.
Google's Co-Scientist AI tool, powered by Gemini LLM, made headlines for supposedly solving a superbug problem in 48 hours, but it was later revealed that the solution was derived from previously published research. Similar patterns of overstated achievements were found in Google's other AI research claims, including drug discovery and materials synthesis.
An analytical study investigates the correlation between kebab restaurant quality and proximity to train stations in Paris using Google Places API and geospatial analysis. Despite thorough data collection of 400 establishments and complex spatial analysis, results showed only a weak correlation (0.091 Pearson coefficient), leaving the hypothesis largely unconfirmed.
An exploration of David Lynch's almost-involvement with Star Wars, examining how Lynch declined George Lucas's offer to direct Return of the Jedi in 1981, leading to Richard Marquand's eventual direction. The article analyzes what a Lynch-directed Star Wars film might have looked like, based on his subsequent work on Dune and signature directing style.
A developer reverse-engineered League of Legends' replay system to extract high-fidelity gameplay data by decrypting game packets and emulating game engine functions, achieving better performance than existing approaches. The work demonstrates methods for accessing detailed match data including precise player positions, ability usage, and damage calculations that are not available through official APIs.
A new spreadsheet concept called 'Ambsheets' introduces 'amb values' that allow cells to hold multiple values simultaneously, enabling easier scenario exploration and comparison. The innovation improves upon traditional spreadsheet limitations and Excel's What-If Analysis by automatically computing all possible combinations while maintaining a seamless user interface.
