I generated a Kármán vortex street without solving a single fluid equation.

Since the beginning of 2026, many projects such as RTK, Caveman, and Ponytail have claimed that they can reduce token usage by 80–90%. Some of them gained tens of thousands of GitHub stars in a very short time. My previous startup was building an e-commerce chatbot. In fact, the product was almost identical to the Universal Commerce Protocol (UCP). After UCP was released, I decided not to continue pursuing that direction. Earlier this year, I started turning the architecture we had built for e-c

Hey, I finally dare to raise the curtains to my 3D physics-modeled arena game, where players' algorithms fight and perform tasks. The arena treats algorithms as a black box, meaning that the implementation of algorithms is in the free hands of the players via the Algohol API. Algohol is roughly in the same context as Screeps or Battlesnake, but brings its own dimension to the genre. At the moment the only world is energy economy based SciFI, but there will be Terra (traditional kinetic combat) a

Claude Opus 5 definitely feels a lot closer to the original Fable 5 release. With minimal instructions and about 2 iterations of feedback, I am really surprised with it's output, especially the visuals. Comments URL: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49046504 Points: 1 # Comments: 1

Opus 5 combined with Auto Mode hits a zero percent prompt injection success rate for browser agents across 129 test scenarios. Without those extra protection layers, the rate is 3.7 percent. If these numbers hold up in practice, Anthropic may have cracked one of the biggest security problems facing AI agents that operate in browsers. The article Opus 5 may have solved browser-based prompt injection, the biggest security flaw haunting AI agents appeared first on The Decoder .

We made $65.33 from a sale. I know this isnt life changing amount but at least im happy we finally reached this milestone.. We recently made changes to our pricing and structure. This is what we think finally ticked over a user to convert: - Our LinkedIn lead agent prior to the change was only one time preview (on trials only) and that very agent also happened to be the star of the show. Restricting users to one time preview on your best agent wasnt the smartest decision in hindsight. - We added
