Hello everyone. I've been working on this experimental editor called Huzzah. I've been working almost exclusively with coding agents since January of this year, and over the past few months I began to feel utterly exhausted by them. They're great, but I'm finding it more and more tedious to write full sentences for every change I want. Not only that, but it seems there's a complexity limit for codebases - beyond a certain point the agent begins confusing itself. I'd like to go back to writing co...

Learning Data Structures and Algorithms (DSA) often feels like facing an challenging wall of complex jargon, syntax, and heavy mathematics. But don't worry because we just posted a course on the freeC

Is Amp Crash a guitar amp or a guitar pedal? Yes. Death By Audio's latest is, in fact, both. While it's in a guitar pedal enclosure, Amp Crash is actually a tiny 3-watt amp hooked up to a 2-inch speaker. You can even connect an external speaker if you want. This isn't a digital re-creation […]

Today on Decoder, I’m talking with Robert Hart, The Verge’s London-based AI reporter, about what AI is doing to the field of mathematics and the existential crisis many lead mathematicians are having about it. OpenAI just published a set of solutions to longstanding problems in math that went off like a bombshell in the field. […]

The Duskbloods is a world away from the approachable games Nintendo is known for. But for its next Switch 2 exclusive, the company has partnered with Elden Ring developer FromSoftware on a hardcore multiplayer game about vampires. And after spending a few hours playing through its gothic world at FromSoft's offices in Tokyo, I'm convinced […]

There's something just a little bit different about FromSoftware's office in Tokyo. Like with any other successful video game studio, there's extensive security to get in the door, a minimalist lobby with framed posters from the studio's most recent releases, and a large glass display case filled with statues from ceremonies ranging from the BAFTAs […]

Comcast announced a new platform this week called Xfinity Shield that includes the option to let customers turn their routers into motion sensors. Many people reacted with fear and anger. "I am not enabling this. I am also seriously considering replacing my leased gateway with my own equipment, because a device I do not control […]

Seven months after Elon Musk announced that Tesla Robotaxis in Austin were operating without human safety monitors onboard, the city's service appears to have finally gone fully driverless. Over the past two weeks, all 170 Tesla Robotaxi rides in Austin monitored by the crowdsourced Robotaxi Tracker were unsupervised, the site's creator, Ethan McKanna, told The […]

Amazon's speedy drone delivery service will soon reach 500 cities across the US - but that might just mean there are more pools to drop packages into. On Wednesday, ABC7 News Bay Area shared a video showing an Amazon delivery drone hovering over a customer's pool in Texas, before opening its hatch and plopping the […]

Best Buy has a whole host of LG products discounted for today’s Deal of the Day festivities, including laptops, home theater gear, and more. One that stood out is a price cut on LG’s 65-inch B6 OLED TV that’s deeper than I’ve seen before. At Best Buy, it’s $1,399.99 (originally $1,999.99) for the rest of […]

Google's new HiLight notification LED on the Pixel 11 Pro is nearly useless. Out of the box, the only two things it can glow for are when the phone is face down and you're interacting with Gemini, or when you get a call from a favorite contact. And even then, it can only glow one […]

OpenAI has had a hell of a year. The company spent months battling former co-founder Elon Musk in a sensational jury trial, was hit with a high-profile trade secrets lawsuit from Apple, and faced widespread scrutiny after an unreleased model hacked another AI company. As it prepares for an IPO, a steady string of executives […]

Did you know there's a new major version in town for Puppet Core? You might have heard about it through the grapevine or in the Are You Ready for Puppet 9? webinar that @gpatton and I recently hosted. The wait is over and Puppet Core 9.0.0 is now available alongside Puppet Core 8.21.0. Puppet Core 9 introduces significant runtime and platform changes, moving to Ruby 4.0, OpenSSL 3.5, and other changes, but the essential Puppet under the hood is largely unchanged from Puppet 8. The majorit...

If you use Claude Code for frontend development, you may have noticed something. Claude can write code very fast. But sometimes the UI it creates looks too similar to other AI-generated websites. You get the same rounded cards, large headings, soft shadows, gradients, and simple layouts. The code works. But the design does not always feel like your own. Hi everyone, I am Henry. In this article, I want to show you a simple way to fix that. We are going to create our own C...

If you installed the Midnight wallet SDK a while back and pinned the package names, your imports are now pointing at a deprecated scope. Nothing is broken yet. But the packages you depend on moved, and the old names are living on borrowed time. Here is what changed, why it matters, and the one gotcha that trips people up. The short version The wallet SDK packages moved from the @midnight-ntwrk scope (with a dash) to @midnightntwrk (no dash). @midnight-ntwrk/wallet-...

I saw "MTP round-trip" on a checklist for a Megatron conversion pipeline and had no idea what it meant. Two acronyms, one hyphen, apparently important enough that someone had listed it as a thing to verify. Working out what it meant took me somewhere I didn't expect. The interesting part turned out not to be MTP at all — it was the reason speculative decoding works in the first place, which rests on a fact about hardware that I had backwards. TL;DR Generating text is slow be...

Short answer: the best way to reduce LLM cost for a product catalog is to measure cost per accepted record, then route each job by difficulty. Count prompt tokens before the call, use a small model for the easy summarize/classify/extract-JSON cases, reserve a stronger model for exceptions, and batch work that can wait. The winning option is the one that preserves the required fields at the lowest cost per accepted result, not the one with the lowest token rate. I build RAG and agent features ...
