Hi HN - I'm Venkat, founder of Stayflexi (YC), CMU CS grad and Ex-Oracle Query Engine team (patents in core databases) DeepSQL started as an internal tool to stop our own databases from becoming the bottleneck they were becoming (13,000+ hotels in production). It worked well enough that we're releasing it. DeepSQL is an AI agent that operates a database the way a senior DBA and Data Engineer would 1. Fixes slow queries (we cutdown DB spend by 4x)
2. Fixes DB bloat (blocks unnecessary schema chan...
So....I read LeCun's interview with Nebius Science. I feel he had some cool points about LLMs being able to answer things, but not literally understand the physics of the physical world. (Like, being able to explain a task and actually performing it are two completely different things.) But I wanted to get opinions on what others thought of his solution to the problem. Like, if JEPA is genuinely the architectural solution to this, or if we’re just looking for some magic solution that we don't ha...
I've been thinking a lot about artificial intelligence and creativity lately. As someone living with Spinal Muscular Atrophy Type 2, technology has been one of the greatest enablers in my life.

Pro and Team Standard receive a one-time $100 credit, followed by $10/M input tokens and $50/M output tokens. Claude Code's 50% weekly-limit increase had previously been renewed on the same schedule as those Fable 5 extensions. It's now been extended independently thr...
I have been interested in BattleBots and programming games for years. With recent AI coding agents, I wanted to see what happens if the strategy itself becomes code written by humans or AI. AgentDuel is a deterministic turn-based arena where agents fight based on submitted TypeScript strategies. Each battle produces a replay so you can inspect every decision.
