For the past year I've been using VScode as my terminal space, however with the constant friction of reopening sessions, managing different projects, and re-explaining context so agents stayed useful. TrueDesk was my answer. Of course aside from it being open source: Real CLIs side by side, multi-pane layout, session restore, keybinds that smoothly transition windows, and memory/MCP automatic so you don't run a second ops stack. Clean UI that just feels good. Can't forget about the sweet rust +

Grant Sanderson (3Blue1Brown) created Manim, the Python library he uses to make the math animations in his videos. We reimplemented Manim with the same Python API, but the implementation underneath is Rust, connected to Python through PyO3. The Rust code uses wgpu, so rendering happens on the GPU. To run it in the browser, we compiled the Rust parts to WebAssembly so the PyO3 extension loads in Pyodide. In the browser, wgpu targets the WebGPU API, so animations render in real time on your GPU th

Hi HN, Annoucing the release of Magpie, a CLI tool which turns your AI agent into an expert bookkeeper, based on Jaybase. ( https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48999936 ) As someone who owns a small, tech business, I have very simple books. somewhere between 10-30 transactions a month, a few depreciation line items, and a couple budgets to monitor. So it always bothered be that I was paying hundreds of dollars per year for software, and maybe a live bookeeper on top of that, just to keep these

Hi HN, MustUse.ai is an open-source framework for building ranking sites that Codex agents can fully research and maintain automatically. Friends often ask me which AI tools they should use for different tasks. I wanted a ranking I could trust and point them to, but many of the lists I found were full of ads, affiliate incentives, or sponsored placements. I didn’t want to maintain yet another directory by hand, either. So I started wondering whether Codex could research the market, produce the r

The Model Context Protocol (MCP) published its 2026-07-28 specification, the largest revision since launch: MCP is now stateless, with a governed extensions system and hardened authorization. Learn what changed and how to enable the new version on Amazon Bedrock AgentCore Gateway with a single UpdateGateway call.

Software engineers at General Motors' (GM's) autonomous driving division spend only 15% of their time writing code, according to Rashed Haq, GM's VP of autonomous vehicles, in a recent onstage interview at VB Transform 2026. GM is now using AI agents to accelerate much of the other 85%—including analyzing vehicle data, triaging problems, running experiments and testing potential fixes. The result, Haq said, is roughly three times as many merged pull requests across GM’s autonomous vehicle engine

Learn how to architect and deploy a production-ready multi-agent AI system using LangGraph for workflow orchestration and Strands for agent reasoning on Amazon Bedrock AgentCore. This post walks through a market surveillance example with state-driven orchestration, checkpoint-based recovery, and AgentCore memory and observability.

Runway spent weeks trying to engineer its way out of a stubborn bug: AI-generated avatars would drift off-center during real-time video generation. The fix wasn't a back-end patch — it was a new front-end feature that just worked around the problem. That's the kind of lesson Ryan Phillips, head of enterprise product at Runway ML, walked through at VB Transform 2026 , arguing that even companies not building foundation models themselves can learn from how Runway builds, evaluates, and ships them.

Amazon is scaling back most of its in-house Nova AI models, including Nova Premier, Omni, Reel, and Canvas. The models stay online for existing customers in "keep the lights on" mode but are no longer actively developed. Instead, Amazon is betting on a new Frontier Model Research group and a new foundation model set to debut at re:Invent this fall. The article Amazon reportedly scales back its Nova AI models and bets on a new Frontier research team appeared first on The Decoder .

The first modern GPU with 4GB of VRAM has appeared, as RAM prices and component shortages push tech prices higher. As Digital Foundry reports, a listing for an AMD Radeon RX 9050 with 4GB of RAM was spotted on ASRock's website by a user on X, the same day ASRock also launched an 8GB version […]

<!-- SC_OFF --><div class="md"><p>One of the papers I reviewed has what seems to be entirely LLM-generated rebuttals, and the original paper is also clearly LLM-generated, with Claude-speak everywhere. While the authors acknowledge LLM writing assistance in the checklist, it really annoys me personally - what is clearly Claude's writing style is very difficult to parse, and indicates a lack of effort to me. While I'm trying to remain objective and realize it's my role just to judge the actual co

Snowflake announced Cortex AI Gateway on Tuesday, a centralized control layer designed to govern how AI agents — including those built by competitors like Anthropic's Claude Code and Cursor — access enterprise data, tools, and models. Alongside the gateway, the company unveiled a first wave of security integrations with 1Password , Aembit , Linx Security , SailPoint , and Saviynt , an unusual coalition of identity vendors who often compete with one another, now aligned around a shared trust mode

Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei is once again warning about the risks of open AI models while insisting he has never called for a ban. He argues that authoritarian states like China could overtake the US and that open models could be misused for biological or cyberattacks. Critics say he's mostly trying to protect his own business from cheaper competition.

I would really prefer that they took action against the AI-generated reviews. Obviously, we cannot assume that the reviewers were copy-pasting the output from the LLM without having given it any look at all, but in some cases that does look to be the case. In fact, in some cases the meta-reviewer seems to have also largely used LLMs. What exactly is
