Learn more about Athena, an AI-powered collaborative agent for developers, integrated directly into Microsoft Teams.

Every day, developers tackle complex workflows involving planning, coding, reviewing, testing, securing, and releasing software. These tasks, often scattered across various tools and platforms, create friction that slows us down. At Microsoft, we believe AI can change that. This belief led us to create Athena, an AI-powered collaborative agent for developers, integrated directly into Microsoft Teams. What began as an internal experiment to reduce context switching has evolved into a platform that is revolutionizing how thousands of engineers, product managers, and engineering leaders at Microsoft ship software—faster and with less effort. We introduced Athena at our Microsoft Build 2025…from devblogs.microsoft.com

    Hey HN! Pilots everywhere are required to keep a logbook of all their flying hours, aircraft, airports, and so on. Since I track everything digitally (some people still just use paper logbooks!), I put together some data visualizations and a few 3D globes to show my flying history. This globe is probably my favourite so far: https://jameshard.ing/pilot/globes/all If you’ve got ideas for other graphs or ways to show this kind of data, I’d love to hear them!

Over the next 9 months, I sent 15 emails to try to save it : no replies. Feature requests & issues were ignored. The community was left with a "broken" tool let's say. I couldn't just let it die So I built the new version from scratch with the same open-source spirit, but a better…
