Hey folks, I've been building Clark solo, with the aim to match Manus agent (I really like it!) in features and capabilities, but also in its relentless ability to just complete tasks while using browser, computer etc. So far I think I've achieved 1:1 core feature parity: 1) computer use agent 2) browser use in same thread 3) wide and deep research - clark calls clark 4) integration with google tools Would love to have community feedback and for you to try it out, a couple thousand people alread

Hey HN, I built an OS notch tool, Topsoiil because I kept alt-tabbing to check on my coding agents, dragging and dropping files/screenshots and listening to music. Topsoil lives in the notch of your MacBook. It's a native SwiftUI app, that turns the botch into a small panel that expands on hover and has: Live terminal panes for Claude Code, codex, and cursor cli, a "Now Playing" section for Music/Spotify, Calendar, Battery/CPU/Ram, a tiny pixel plant besides the terminal panes that grows while y

NeuroVFM is a generalist neuroimaging foundation model from the University of Michigan, trained on 5.24M clinical MRI and CT volumes. Its Vol-JEPA base extends I-JEPA and V-JEPA to volumetric medical imaging, learning brain anatomy and pathology without radiology-report labels. The post Meet NeuroVFM: A New Neuroimaging Foundation Model Trained With Vol-JEPA on Uncurated Clinical MRI and CT Volumes appeared first on MarkTechPost .

Regulators picked a word for AI this week, and the word is systemic. Career Treasury analysts concluded the boom is now too entrenched to unwind quietly: a downturn would ripple through stocks, private credit, data-center debt and utilities. The ECB gave every significant European bank until October 31 to prove it can take an AI-powered punch, and the UK put AWS, Google Cloud, Microsoft and Oracle under the supervision reserved for firms that can break the financial system. The rest of the issue

You can now inspect subagent activity for eve projects in Agent Runs . The new Subagents tab shows every subagent, organized by which turn started it. Each row shows the prompt, duration, and any failures, all on a shared timeline. Click any subagent to open its run. The tab shows the same details as a parent run: turns, tool calls, metadata, cost, and token usage. Open Agent Runs to try it, or read the documentation to learn more. Read more

You can now manage targeting rules for Vercel Flags through the Vercel CLI . With the vercel flags rules command, you and your agents can add new rules, move existing ones, and inspect the current ordering without leaving your terminal. Rules you create from the CLI use the same model as the dashboard. Conditions can target entities or reusable segments , outcomes can serve a single variant, a weighted split, or a progressive rollout, and rules evaluate top to bottom. For scripts and agents, ver

<p>Welcome! I'm Shreya, a data professional, and I started this blog to document my journey into AI and share every lesson, failure, and breakthrough I encounter along the way.</p> <p>For my first post, I want to start where I actually started — with two courses that gave me a solid foundation: <strong>Claude 101</strong> and <strong>AI Fluency: Framework and Foundations</strong>. Here's what I learned from each.</p> <h2> Claude 101: Getting Comfortable with AI as a Daily Tool </h2> <p>This cour

<p>AI can generate an endpoint, a test fixture or a deployment manifest in seconds. That speed is useful, but it does not solve the expensive part of software delivery: deciding what the system should do, proving that the implementation matches that intent and controlling change across architecture, security and operations. In an AI-assisted SDLC, you need a stronger source of truth than a backlog item or a chat transcript. Spec-driven development gives you that control plane. You express behavi

I sometimes have things to discuss with LLMs, which are more private than usual. I was thinking how to do it in a way that doesn't reveal my identity. 1. Use Tor to access the provider? 2. Create a random account? 3. Use some form of untraceable payment (which one?) 4. Scrub all information provided to the LLM from personally identifiable information? It seems like a lot of effort. So is running a local LLM, for which I don't even have the hardware. How do you do it? Comments URL: https://news.y

I was maintaining a wiki for my company's context through a hacky project I had made, but I wanted to turn that into something that's a lot more polished and easier to use. I wanted something where: 1. I could use it for myself or I could share it with my teammates. 2. I could upload sources, and the wiki gets created and updated automatically. 3. It is extremely agent-native, because my primary mechanism of interaction would be through my CC or Codex. So I built Almanac. It takes whatever sourc

As predicted here (not by me), Anthropic extended the Fable pumpkin date again, to July 19. I don't think there's a web page with this yet but they sent an email today that says: "We’re extending Claude Fable 5 access on all paid plans, as well as our increased Claude Code rate limits, through July 19."
