Ask HN: If AI took your job tomorrow, what is your plan?

I'm looking for some optimism here after reading one of the recent daily threads that devolves into doom. I'm 26, single, at a non-FAANG making okay money doing software, but I can feel the AI grip tightening. Maybe it's an illusion, not sure, but it sure feels real. Does anyone here have a creative plan for other industries to get into? Ways to reduce expenses? Trying to find something people with brains like ours can look forward to.

Show HN: Yantra – an LALR(1) parser generator for C++

Yantra is a C++ parser generator: lexer, parser, and AST walker all generated from one tool. It builds the whole AST first, then walks it. Most LALR parser generators (Yacc, Bison, Lemon) run your semantic actions during parsing, as each rule reduces, bottom-up. That means at the time a rule's action runs, you don't yet know what its parent looks like. This pushes a lot of grammars toward hand-built AST classes and a separate walking pass whenever you need to look ahead into siblings or defer a ...

Vivo’s X Fold 6 accidentally feels like a throwback

It's a quirk of the release calendar that when Vivo's X Fold 6 launched in China this June, it was just another foldable. Now that it's ready for its global release, the size and aspect ratio feel oddly old-fashioned. The X Fold 6 is much the same size as Vivo's previous foldables, and most other […]

Making seamless video loops with ffmpeg: repeat, ping-pong, crossfade and a generated bridge

Disclosure: I build LoopVideo , a browser-based tool for making video loops. The ffmpeg techniques below work on their own, with or without it. This post was written with the help of AI tools. A looping video usually "jumps" at one place: where the last frame is followed by the first frame again. If those two frames don't match, viewers notice the cut on every cycle. This post walks through four ways to deal with that seam using plain ffmpeg, from the simplest to the most involved. ...

Python for Agentic AI: LangGraph vs CrewAI vs MAF

Verdict: if you are choosing Python for agentic AI work in 2026 and you want one answer, pick LangGraph . Its explicit graph-and-state model gives you deterministic routing, durable checkpoints you can inspect, and the largest surrounding ecosystem, which is what actually matters once an agent runs unattended. Microsoft Agent Framework (MAF) is the better pick if your infrastructure already lives in Azure, because it is the direct successor to AutoGen and Semantic Kernel and carries the en...
