Siri has been on the Apple Watch since day one, though I'm usually hard-pressed to find people who actually make good use of it. It's kind of just… been there - mostly as a way to set timers when my hands are full. But after playing around with the watchOS 27 developer beta, I get […]
iOS 27 escaped the developer world today with the launch of the first public beta. I've been testing the new operating system since early June, looking for quirks and seeing if it can live up to the hype Apple promised in the keynote. This year's iOS upgrades are what one might call a Snow Leopard […]

I built AgentsProof as a learning side-project to better understand agent evals and observability. It lets me trace runs, create eval cases, and see where an agent succeeds or fails. Nothing fancy but it does creates publicly shareable reports for your agent runs Comments URL: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48898280 Points: 1 # Comments: 1

I created a simple CLI that turns a YouTube guitar-lesson video into a PDF of the guitar tab. There are services that transcribe music from Youtube videos into tabs, but they never work well enough for me. Instead I'm taking a simpler approach. It downloads the video, samples frames, uses Claude vision to locate the tab region, crops every frame to that region, de-duplicates the crops by the bar number printed on each line of the score, and stitches the distinct tab lines vertically into a PDF.
Apple would not comment on the "security breach," which allegedly allowed a former employee to download sensitive files from Apple's network long after he departed the company for rival OpenAI.
Two weeks ago I was on my babymoon in Corfu, Greece. While in transit, I was overseeing a GSoC intern submit an important feature to my array database library, Xarray-SQL. He added `to_dataset()`, which completed the roundtrip between thinking of array data in a tabular model simultaneously as gridded rasters (the premise of the project is that every Nd array can be mapped to 2d, where orthogonal dims of the Nd array are just primary keys of a tabular representation). We discussed in chat, now t

Imagine if operating systems, browsers, or databases had evolved with only closed systems. We wouldn’t have the internet we know today. AI needs world-class open alternatives to great tech. In response to this, we’ve been busy building Mindshub. A high quality, open-source AI coworker you can truly make your own. Where we know. Good enough wasn’t an option.

I am building Promptster - an AI fluency platform that helps level up engineering organizations. Engineering managers invite their teammates and Promptster analyzes the engineers work with ai coding tools (claude code, codex, cursor, copilot). The manager receives a team-aggregate dashboard where they can roll-out certain practices / skill to their whole team. Each IC receives their own dashboard where they can see their fluency statistics, skill usage, context management, and a DORA dashboard.

Agent runs often fail after expensive model calls and executing tools that have real-world side effects. This problem is made even worse by how common it is to deploy agents to serverless environments. When your agent dies, it needs to be restarted, but doing so safely isn't easy and everyone building agents has to solve this same problem of durability. The stack you're running probably already has half of what you need for durable execution already though, ie, a queue or job runner that can inv
In this tutorial, we reconstruct the VideoAgent workflow as a runnable, API-key-free multi-agent pipeline. We build an intent parser, an agent library, a tool router, a graph planner, and a textual-gradient optimizer that repairs the execution graph. We wire these planning components to FFmpeg, Whisper transcription, scene detection, keyframe sampling, captioning, cross-modal indexing, and beat-synced editing. By the end, we have a system that answers questions about a video, summarizes it, and
