The core they're talking about was released about two years ago. nvidia stuck it on their grace blackwell (e.g. DGX Spark) as basically a coordinator on the system.

Anyway, here it is in GB10 form-

https://browser.geekbench.com/v6/cpu/14078585

And here is a comparable M5 in a laptop-

https://browser.geekbench.com/macs/macbook-pro-14-inch-2025

M5 has about a 32% per core advantage, though the DGX obviously has a much richer power budget so they tossed in 10 high performance cores and 10 efficiency cores (versus the 4 performance and 6 efficiency in the latter). Given the 10/10 vs 4/6 core layouts I would expect the former to massively trounce the latter on multicore, while it only marginally does.

Samsung used the same X925 core in their Exynos 2500 that they use on a flip phone. Mediatek put it in a couple of their chips as well.

"Reaching desktop" is always such a weird criteria though. It's kind of a meaningless bar.

I’m a Cybersecurity Architect currently focused on large-scale security platform design and DevSecOps integrations for enterprise (SAST/DAST/SCA, CI/CD automation, secure toolchain orchestration). After many years consulting and building security capabilities, I want to go back to creating things with computers, software, and AI, not just securing them. I love lisp, emacs, functional programming, programming languages and GOFAI.

And “happen to work on x86-64 processors” also will depend on the compiler. If you write

*a = 1;
*b = 'p';

both the compiler and the CPU can freely pick the order in which those two happen (or even execute them in parallel, or do half of one first, then the other, then the other half of the first, but I think those are hypothetical cases)

x86-64 will never do such a swap, but x86-64 compilers might.

If you write

*a = 1;
*b = 2;

, things might be different for the C compiler because a and b can alias. The hardware still is free to change that order, though.

Senior Tech Lead & AI Engineer with 8+ years of experience. I operate effectively at two ends of the spectrum: architecting massive, highly regulated systems for Tier-1 banks (UBS, HSBC) and driving rapid, from-scratch execution for AI startups.

I don't just glue APIs together; I build robust architectures around them. I am looking for a challenging remote role (Tech Lead / Senior AI/Fullstack Engineer) where I can leverage both my deep frontend expertise and my hands-on AI engineering background.

Recent highlights:
* **Enterprise:** Currently leading frontend architecture at UBS for a mission-critical post-trading platform, handling millions of daily transaction rows with sub-second WebSocket updates.
* **AI/Startups:** Bootstrapped an AI-driven CBT platform (HeadSanctuary) featuring a custom RAG pipeline for unlimited memory context, complex form engines generated via JSON schemas, and uncensored LLM research for therapeutic contexts.
* **Developer Experience:** Implemented AI-driven QA workflows using MCP/LLM agents to generate and maintain Playwright e2e tests, significantly reducing regression time.

I've recently started adding a PROJECT.md to all my own projects to keep the direction consistent.

Just something that tells the LLM (and me, as I tend to forget) what is the actual purpose of the project and what are the next features to be added.

In many cases the direction tends to get lost and the AI starts adding features like it's doing a multi-user SaaS or helfully adding things that aren't in the scope for the project because I have another project doing that already.

I love vibe coding but you are absolutely right. We're at the stage where vibe coding is a fun way to produce sloppy software and that's fine if the intended user is just yourself and you're fully informed about what you're getting into. But actually shipping vibe coded slop to other people is wacky, anybody doing the needs to be manually reviewing every commit very carefully and needs to be prepared to accept personal responsibility for anything that slips by.

I express my pro-AI positions on HN all the time.

Also, top 3 comments in this very thread are all pro-AI right now. That's how deeply your victim mentality rooted. You chose to ignore all the positive parts and cling to the downvotes. That's a choice you made and I won't bother to convince you otherwise anymore.

Pretty simply because I don't want to use MacOS, its terrible window management, quirks and idiosyncrasies. In your comparison, my gripe wouldn't be about the hassle of finding 3rd-party compatible batteries, but about the daily handling of the Makita while knowing the DeWalt to be more ergonomic and better suited to my needs.

No. 2 is interesting, our national lottery in Ireland has an app that you can scan the barcode on your ticket to check if you have won or not, at some stage they updated the app and the scan picks up the barcode even before you center it on the screen and tells you if you have lost/won instantly, I though it was my IT background that made me uncomfortable with it happening so fast, wonder what other examples like this exist where the result/action being too fast causes doubt with the user?

Another good read is about ARM's SVE2 extensions: https://gist.github.com/zingaburga/805669eb891c820bd220418ee...

It has some interesting conclusions, such as that it covers certain AVX512 gaps:

"AVX512 plugs many of the holes that SSE had, whilst SVE2 adds more complex operations (such as histogramming and bit permutation), and even introduces new ‘gaps’ (such as 32/64-bit element only COMPACT, no general vector byte left-shift, non-universal predication etc)."

And also that rusty x86 developers might face skill issues:

"Depending on your application, writing code for SVE2 can bring about new challenges. In particular, tailoring fixed-width problems and swizzling data around vectors may become much more difficult when the length is unknown."

I would say the first starting point is to run your agent somewhere you're comfortable with giving it mostly unconstrained permissions (e.g. --dangerously-skip-permissions for Claude COde), but more importantly, setting up sub-agents to hand off most work to.

A key factor to me in whether you're "doing it right" is whether you're sitting there watching the agent work because you need to intervene all the time, or whether you go do other stuff and review the code when the agent think it's done.

To achieve that, you need a setup with skills and sub-agents to 1) let the model work semi-autonomously from planning stage until commit, 2) get as much out of the main context as possible.

E.g. at one client, the Claude Code plugin I've written for them will pull an issue from Jira, ask for clarification if needed, then augment the ticket with implementation details, write a detailed TODO list. Once that's done, the TODO items will be fed to a separate implementation agent to do the work, one by one - this keeps the top level agent free to orchestrate, with little entering its context, and so can keep the agent working for hours without stopping.

Once it's ready to commit, it invokes a code-review agent. Once the code-review agent is satisifed (possibly involving re-work), it goes through a commit checklist, and offers to push.

None of these agents are rocket-science. They're short and simple, because the point isn't for them to have lots of separate context, but mostly to tell them the task and move the step out of the main agents context.

I've worked on a lot more advanced setups too, but to me, table stakes beyond minimising permissions is is to have key workflows laid out in a skill + delegate each step to a separate sub-agent.

The intersectionality of the American military industrial complex, the Republican Party and fundamentalist Christianity go back much further than Hegseth. When Bush talked about a "new crusade" after 9/11, who do you think he was signaling to? That wasn't just awkward phrasing.

The only real difference between then and now is that the current administration is run by groypers and trolls who don't care about kayfabe and aren't capable of subtlety.

> How feasible is it to make a crt from parts? [...] I've never seen a DIY CRT kit before.

The closest thing that springs to mind: A friend of mine once drilled a hole into an empty Vodka bottle, stuck two wires in it (one at each end), a hose adapter for a vacuum pump, "sealed" the whole thing with a hot glue gun and hooked it up to several scavenged microwave oven transformers in series. Yes, the output was rectified and capacitors were also involved.

Here are some pictures:

https://chaos.social/@itsyndikat/107846783094589995

IIRC what he wanted to do was plasma etching.

I suppose rearranging the electrodes (using a piece of sheet metal with a hole in it; both fed through the neck of the bottle) and wrapping the sides of the bottle with 4 strips of aluminium foil could get you a beam and some crude deflection control. Not sure tough what you would coat the end of the bottle with, but I guess vacuum coating would be applicable.

If that sounds absolutely insane to you, I'd wholeheartedly agree.

At least to my ears, trying to build a CRT from first principles, combined with learning-by-doing and learning-EE-from-youtube-tutorials, sounds like a fast path to end up either dead or in a permanent care facility. Not exactly something I'd hand out in beginner-friendly kit form.

If you're a non-technical founder, you probably have no idea what your developers did last week. You ask, they say "refactored the auth module" and you nod pretending you understand.
Gitmore reads your GitHub activity and turns it into a simple report: what was built, what was fixed, what's stuck. Written for humans, not engineers.

It shows up in your inbox. You read it in 2 minutes. Done.

Here's what a report looks like: https://www.gitmore.io/example.html

Quick demo: https://demo.arcade.software/5tZyFDhp1myCosw6e1po

Free tier available. Happy to hear what you'd want from something like this.

> Edwards said that he was sick at the time, and “while working from bed with a fever and very little sleep,” he “unintentionally made a serious journalistic error” as he attempted to use an “experimental Claude Code-based AI tool”

I'm skeptical. I hate to be the one to say it, but I don't think this would have happened if he was using Claude 4.6 Opus.

I have 14 years' experience in designing web and mobile applications end-to-end. I am very strong in both UX and UI, and I specialize in founding design at startups where I own everything design.

I work with the founders, product managers and engineers, juggling usability, UI visuals, tight time-lines, and engineering constraints to take products from 0 to 1. I'm very comfortable doing things that don't scale to launch the MVP, and also establishing systems and workflows to grow the product.

I also take care of landing pages, brand identities, and marketing materials.

Location: Africa or REMOTE

Remote: yes

Willing to relocate: yes, to any location in Africa, where I can get the necessary permission to live and work. Occasional travel is possible.

Technologies: Linux, Front or Backend Web Development, General Software Development, System Administration.

Résumé/CV: on request (software development, CTO, mentoring, training, fluent in English and German, german citizenship)

Contact: Email: see profile or http://codingforafrica.at/

Like this Ask HN: Recommend employers with positive social impact [https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31518945], I am looking for similar work, but I am open to work on any interesting project. I am a European software developer who has lived and worked on four continents. Now it's time to move on and so I am in the process to relocate to Africa.

I have more than a decade of experience running a company, doing software development, support and training and mentoring adults and students, as well as working on educational projects, and I am willing to take on a mixture of roles as needed to support a project.

I value good teamwork over fancy tech, and I don't shy away from working on legacy code. I am primarily motivated by solving problems, so let me help you solve your problems.

I am open to work for a company anywhere as long as the work can be done fully remote from Africa.

While I could find a job elsewhere I believe that the experience living in an area where my work is going to have an impact gives me a better understanding of the needs of the location I am serving. Whether it is through direct contact with clients and users or just by being part of a local community and learning about the reality of living there.

In addition, I want to use some of my income to hire local interns and junior developers and train them in order to pass on my experience. I also sponsor children that otherwise can't afford to go to school (see my website). If you want to support this, I would love to work with you. Also if you are interested in hiring African developers yourself. I can help you build up a team for you.

I faced an unexpected fund shortage 3 months ago and had no idea what my net worth was. So I built a tool to solve it (for free).

Hey HY

Three months ago, I hit a low point. I needed to move some funds for an emergency and realised I had no idea where I actually stood.

My stocks were in Groww, my mutual funds in ICICI, I had physical gold in a locker, and I was juggling active loans. Every time I wanted an answer, I had to open four different apps and a physical diary.

I started tracking everything in an Excel sheet, but it was tedious. My wife also wanted to track our family finances, and I wanted to sharpen my AI knowledge. So, I decided to turn this into a weekend project.

The "3-Week" Evolution
It started simple:

First Draft: Connected a real-time stock and MF tracker. It worked!
Gold & Net Worth: Added a gold tracker and a dashboard to calculate my total net worth to the rupee.
Collaboration: I added "Team Access" (Crew feature) so my wife and I could both view and update our shared corpus. My friends saw it, loved it, and started using it too.
By week 3, it was a solid tool, but there was one massive pain point: Manual Entry.

The "Share Receipt" Spark
Everything worked well, but logging every expense was still a manual entry drag. Since most of our spending happens via UPI, I was looking for a way to simplify it.

A friend suggested: "All these UPI apps have a 'Share' button after you pay. Just use that!"

That hit a spark. I created a UPI tracker where, after every transaction, I just share the receipt to my project's dedicated email. The system automatically reads it and enters the value for me. No more manual entry!

AI Helper & MCP Connector
Since I wanted to use this to learn more about AI, I didn't stop at simple tracking.

MCP Connector: I've added a Model Context Protocol (MCP) connector. This means you can actually connect your financial data context to Claude or ChatGPT. You can ask your favourite LLM: "Based on my Corpus Tracker data, can I afford to buy a new car this year?"
In-App Assistant: I’ve built a financial helper directly into the app chat. It helps you categorize, analyze, and process everything in natural language.
What’s Inside?
Unified Dashboard: Stocks (Groww-style), MFs, Gold, and Cash.
Loan Manager: Track principal vs interest for EMIs.
Share-to-Track: Forward UPI receipts via email/share for auto-logging.
Crew/Family Access: Manage a shared corpus with your partner.
AI Financial Helper: Chat with your data.
MCP Enabled: Use your data context in Claude/ChatGPT.
It's 100% Free
I’m launching this for free to everyone. No hidden charges, no "premium" tiers for AI features—everything is open and available. I built this to solve my own problem, and I’m happy to share it with the community.

[Link to your app]

Feel free to ask me anything about the tech, the UPI parsing, or the AI integration. I'm actively looking for feedback to make it better!

P.S. — Special thanks to my wife for being the first alpha tester and to the friend who suggested the share button!

Berger is a real one. I'm surprised he's lasted so long at Ars Technica. I think eventually his objective reporting of SpaceX will get the Are Technica reader base to demand his firing, Ars readers are very reddit-like. Team minded, not interested I hearing dispassionate takes. Hearing Elon Musk criticized as a person while simultaneously seeing SpaceX described as a real and highly accomplished company gives reddit/ars readers tonal whiplash, such people prefer simple narratives without nuance.

See also, in this very thread, somebody who thinks Berger has a strong pro-musk bias because his reporting and books say that SpaceX are good at what they do.

Thank you for raising this, I really appreciate you saying it.
Bias in facial recognition and health tools is real, especially for trans and gender-diverse people, and it’s something I take seriously.

In this specific case, the model I’m using (KDM biological age) relies on sex-specific medical reference parameters from the original research datasets. The field isn’t used to define identity — it’s only to apply the correct physiological coefficients.

That said, I recognize that models like this were built on limited population data, and they may not perfectly represent everyone’s biology. I’m actively thinking about how to communicate those limitations transparently and improve inclusivity over time.

Thank you again for calling this out, it genuinely matters.

Awesome, I've submitted a game I made last year (https://blankwhite.cards) which was itself a remake of a game I made in 2019.

In my experience it took 5 years to find the time and motivation to build a v2.0 by hand. AI has since accelerated the production process to help me ship features that would otherwise have taken me another few years to even consider doing.

When we count pills, we use a simple device that has a flat part and a channel to count into. A hockey-stick-like spatula moves pills into the channel. The excess is poured back into the bottle the opposite way and the channel is then emptied into the bottle.

I count in multiples of 3 so I don't lose my place. The last number is unique for every 30.

It's the editors responsibility to make sure fabricated quotes don't get published, but it's also the journalist's responsibility to not paste fabricated quotes from a chatbot into their articles. The responsibility of the former doesn't negate the responsibility of the latter.

I can't just submit shit work all day long then blame QA when some of it goes through. That's like a burglar saying it's the cops fault that people got burglared.

> I don't think it'll work, but they might as well try I guess.

Consider this from the eyes of the people living there. Your world is peaceful one day and burning tomorrow. It doesn't have to be "burning like hell", but something came from the sky, entered your building, exploded and damaged some stuff to the extent that fire-supression triggered and damaged more things.

Even if it's not a trauma, it's a shock. Something you'll be remembering for a long time. We live in fragile bubbles, but don't know it until we experience it pop. While this might not make them "win" the war, it'll leave a mark and make the affected persons' ears perch up to understand what's happening better.

Please note, I'm not from either side. I'm a close observer because of where I live, and still believe that this should have not happened.

"An AI pipeline breaks each one down into plain-language summaries and shows who it impacts by demographic group."

What controls are in place for bias in this step? Most existing plaintext law coverage has bias in it, so how was it trained to convert the law to plaintext without that biased material?

Edit: Also, where it says it hurts or helps a specific issue, it would be helpful to understand why it was rated that way, especially if there was nothing in it's summary specifically stated about that issue.

I think you missed the point of the parent comment.

The money (from advertising) that used to go to news now goes elsewhere (Google and Meta).

It’s left very little in terms of resources for staff.

Think about what the quality of commercial software would be like if there wasn’t enough money for QA and testers and top tier devs capped out at $180k with starting roles at 30k and 40k.

That’s the news industry right now. Poorer quality product.

Haven't checked on it since about mid last year but Facebook settings didn't work with it for me.

LinkedIn has also been especially hard to find a good blocker for to remove the sponsored/suggested posts from the timeline (it's just full of garbage engagement bait hot takes).

I just vibecoded a tampermonkey script to block scrolling on Instagram and also block reels. I also had it redirect from the `/reels/` URL to `/reel` which is just the single video view (for when friends link me memes), but it seems they removed that.

You're taking his fever dream excuse at face value, and I think you probably shouldn't. It reads like a lame excuse to deflect personal responsibility, a cynical face-saving tactic.

If the illness was genuine, can he document that he advised management of this fever and they told him to submit an article anyway? It's not his bosses job to stick a thermometer up his ass every morning.
