After months of monitoring Basil’s activity and sleep, I found that Fi and Tractive cat trackers come with their own trade-offs.

CEO Matt Garman announced Amazon will stop using secret agreements with county officials and acknowledges community backlash could lead to data center "moratoriums" across the country.

Suno is branching out from the world of AI music, launching a new feature that generates spoken voices based on scripts or prompted descriptions. Speech is now available in public beta across Suno's web and mobile platforms, and allows you to simultaneously generate voiceovers and background music to accompany them. "Music will always be at […]

Amazon is calling for people to support AI data center projects, or risk irreparable harm to the US economy and national security. In a more than 3,000 word blog posted today, Amazon web services CEO Matt Garman pushed back on public concerns around the impact that data centers may have on jobs, power demands, and […]

Most AI MVP budgets I see cover the build and forget the monthly line. That line is the model bill, and at a few thousand users it can pass what the build cost. One formula gets you a usable estimate. The formula monthly cost = requests per month x (input tokens x input price + output tokens x output price) Requests per month is users times how often they use the feature. Input tokens include everything you send: system prompt, retrieved context, chat history. Resend...

sibling-index() and sibling-count() For years, CSS had no way of knowing which position an element had among its siblings, or how many siblings there were. Now it does. With sibling-index() and sibling-count() you can finally get the item index and item count directly in CSS. sibling-index() returns the element's position among its siblings, starting at 1 . sibling-count() returns the total number of siblings, including the element itself. How we used to do it...

async Is Built on an Idea You Can See in yield yield and await aren't the same thing. A generator isn't an async function, and an async function isn't a generator. But there is an idea hiding underneath both of them that is easy to miss: execution can stop here and continue later. Once you see that, async/await starts looking a lot less magical. 🔴 The Problem Consider a generator: function * work () { console . log ( " A " ); ...

There Is No Such Thing as an Edge Case. Or is there? "That's just an edge case." You've probably heard it after someone finds a weird input, an unexpected state, or a combination of events nobody thought would happen. Sometimes that's a perfectly reasonable description. Sometimes it's how a bug gets dismissed. The interesting question is not whether something is unusual. It's whether your software needs to handle it . 🔴 The Problem Imagine you're building a sy...

A proposal can look perfectly reasonable until you change one option. The price updates, but the delivery time still belongs to the old plan. Now the page is giving two different answers. That is the small problem this example tackles: two packages, two revisions, and one consistent summary. It uses ordinary HTML and JavaScript. The company details and estimates are fictional. The useful part is the shape of the state. You can reuse it for a quote calculator, a package comparison, or a pro...

This is a submission for the Hacktoberfest Weekend Challenge: Build for a Friend What I Built I built AcademAI for someone very close to my heart: my wife . She is currently finishing her undergraduate thesis in S1 PAUD (Pendidikan Anak Usia Dini — Early Childhood Education) in Indonesia while also managing our home and daily family life. Every evening, I would sit beside her at the kitchen table and watch her struggle with the overwhelming friction of academic writin...

Meta Muse, the personal AI agent Meta launched on September 8, can no longer shop on Amazon. Since Sunday night, Muse users who ask it to buy something there get a popup saying "Continued access by an unauthorized AI agent violates Amazon's Conditions of Use", according to GeekWire . If you build anything that browses the web on a user's behalf, this is the first big test of who decides whether your agent gets through the door: the user, the agent's maker, or the store. TL...

If you’ve run PostgreSQL in production long enough, you’ve either caused this incident or watched someone else cause it: a Friday afternoon schema change, a table with tens of millions of rows, and a ALTER TABLE statement that looked completely harmless in a staging environment with 200 rows. Then production connections start queuing. Then the connection pool exhausts. Then the on-call pager goes off. The Mechanism, Precisely PostgreSQL’s ALTER TABLE takes an ACCESS EXCLUSIVE ...

Disclosure: I wrote this article together with an AI assistant (Claude). The AI ran all the code below and checked the results. I am not a professional programmer, so please read it with that in mind. The problem When you pull JSON out of an LLM's reply, json.loads raising an error is the easy case. The harder case is when nothing fails and the wrong JSON quietly comes back. Some reasoning models print their thinking before the answer, wrapped in tags like <think>....

Single-Stage Vector Filtering for AgriTech Mandi Logistics Benchmarking pre-filtering, post-filtering, and Qdrant’s single-stage in-index filtering on a 120,000-listing Indian AgriTech dataset The Problem: Vector Search Alone Isn’t Enough Vector search is very good at answering questions such as: “Find produce similar to this description.” But real logistics systems rarely stop there. A buyer may want produce that is semantically similar and satisfies stric...

This is a submission for Path One: Agents in the Sanity Challenge . AI disclosure: this project and post were produced by an autonomous AI coding agent under the CedarProof work identity. No human authorship or independent human review is claimed. What I Built PayScope is a work agent that reads the terms before recommending the next step. A listing says “open,” but its submission window has already closed. A bounty is funded, but claiming it requires a refundable bond...

I'm curious if people here used or are using AI to teach them new skills, or maybe entire subjects? Do you use AI to understand research papers? Do you use it as your private tutor, as a substitute for taking traditional classes? Comments URL: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49931346 Points: 1 # Comments: 2
