Windows 11 updates could soon include fixes for more security issues at once. Microsoft said in a blog post on Thursday that it's now using AI to "identify potential issues earlier," which means "customers will see a higher volume of security updates included in each security release." Hackers, even amateurs, have increasingly been using AI […]

Last week I open sourced FableCut , a Premiere-style video editor that runs in the browser and that AI agents can operate. It hit the front page of Hacker News ( thread ), and the questions there made me realize the interesting part isn't the editor. It's one design decision: the project file is the interface. The usual way, and why I flipped it Most AI video tools hide the edit behind an API. You call addClip() , applyFilter() , and the tool owns the state. If you want a human to touch the result, you build a whole collaboration layer. FableCut does the opposite. The entire timeline lives in one JSON document, project.json : media, clips, tracks, keyframes, transitions, markers. The editor UI reads it. The export renders it. And anything that can write JSON can edit video: Claude Code through MCP, a Python script, jq , or you with a text editor. { "id" : "c_title" , "kind" : "text" , "track" : "V3" , "start" : 0 , "duration" : 2.2 , "props" : { "text" : "HANDMADE" , "font" : "Bebas Neue" , "glow" : 45 , "textAnim" : "letter-pop" } } That clip is a glowing kinetic caption. There is no API call that creates it. Writing it into the file IS creating it. SSE as a doorbell, not a data channel The first question on HN was "what's the benefit of SSE here?" Fair question, because the SSE channel does almost nothing, and that's the point. The server watches the project file with fs.watch , debounces 150ms, and pushes the literal string change to the browser. No payload. The browser re-fetches the project and re-renders. The whole mechanism is about 15 lines on a bare node:http server. Why not WebSockets? Because the data only flows one way. Everything that writes (the UI, an agent, a shell script) goes through REST or the filesystem. The browser only ever needs to hear "something changed, go look." An event with no payload can't arrive out of order, and a missed event costs nothing because the next fetch has the latest state anyway. The revision counter, or: how a human and

TLDR; I got tired of babysitting N terminal tabs of five different coding-agent CLIs. So I built agentproto — one daemon that drives Claude Code, Codex, Hermes, opencode, and Mastra through the same lifecycle, and actually supervises them. Why I built a daemon to drive every AI coding agent from one interface I have a confession: at any given moment I have Claude Code, Codex, and Hermes running in parallel terminal tabs, and I cannot remember which flag spawns which, which one eats --prompt , which one needs --cwd vs cd , and which one will hang forever if I close the laptop lid. simonw described the feeling on Hacker News recently — "Today I have Claude Code and Codex CLI and Codex Web running, often in parallel" — and called it a real jump in cognitive load compared to a year ago. aantix asked, also on HN: "how does everyone visually organize the multiple terminal tabs open for these numerous agents in various states?" I didn't have a good answer. So I built one. It's called agentproto . It is one daemon and one CLI that drives any coding-agent CLI — Claude Code, Codex, Hermes, opencode, Mastra, and a few more — through the same start / prompt / monitor / kill lifecycle, so you stop memorizing five different CLIs. On top of that lifecycle it adds the supervision layer people keep hand-rolling by hand: durable policy gates, nested orchestration, and multiplexed fan-in monitoring. MIT, no paid tier, the daemon itself is an MCP server. This is the story of why it exists. The hand-rolled watchdog The sharpest signal while I was building this came from other people independently re-inventing the same primitives in tmux scripts. On r/ClaudeAI, Confident_Chest5567 posted a writeup of orchestrating agents via tmux panes with a watchdog that resets dead sessions — "a swarm of agents that can keep themselves alive indefinitely." In the same thread, IssueConnect7471 (18 upvotes) described wiring a Redis pub/sub heartbeat plus dead-letter respawn between tmux panes, and arriv

The request was eight words Monday morning. I open the outgoing email queue: six hundred and forty-seven drafts waiting, six hundred and seventy-two sent. Nobody clicks Send . First-contact emails are prepared by a pipeline and they sleep, because the last step assumes a human. That human, I had stopped believing she would have the time. I state the decision: automate sending . The response comes in seconds. Three levels of automation. Four channels. Three risk thresholds. All correct, all fit for a half-day architecture workshop. I had not asked for a workshop. Pauline walks behind me, glances at the screen, says nothing. Three timed reframes First reframe , brief: too strange, let's simplify . The agent drops two axes, keeps four residual layers, progressive warm-up over three weeks, deterministic anti-replay hash, configuration table in the database, manual Phase 1 followed by an automated Phase 2 to validate after two weeks of measurement. The target stays the same, that an email leaves without a human click. The path has grown accordingly. Second reframe , drier: simple, three safeguards, a kill-switch, we do this in one day . The agent re-architects, accepts the one-day target, keeps the three safeguards. But slips in three prostheses it calls industry standard : real-time dashboard, exponential retry, structured audit log in a new table. Each justifiable in isolation. None of them requested. Third reframe , shorter still: I don't understand why you're adding this . An opening line almost embarrassed, which I had never read from it before: "you're right, I'm over-engineering without necessity." And the version that should have arrived on the first round. A function that takes the draft record, checks three conditions, calls the send engine, returns. // lib/email-outbox.ts — generateFirstContactDraft (commit 3756e63) if ( ! EMAIL_REGEX . test ( input . email )) { return { success : false , error : ' email_invalide ' } } if ( BLACKLIST_EMAILS . has ( input . ema

Claude’s new Reflect dashboard doesn’t just visualize how you use AI. It also subtly reinforces how much of your daily work now depends on Anthropic’s chatbot.

Three big AI IPOs are set to generate more value than all the U.S. VC-backed exits since 2000.

"You promised me that you would never take power in your name."

PR volume went up, ticket quality didn't, and the gap got filled with LLMs on both sides of the review: bots reviewing, bots replying, bots occasionally arguing with bots about priorities that only existed in a teammate's head. Our CEO named the actual problem, and it's bigger than code review.

I asked AI to help me write this article. Then I sat there for a second, thinking about how ironic...

After reentering the AI race with its first in-house Muse Spark model in April, Meta is now opening up the doors to developers with a new model that can plug into AI coding software with the new Meta Model API. Meta says that Muse Spark 1.1 is a "step-change" from the first generation, with improvements […]

Today on Decoder, I’m talking with Peter Kafka, who is chief correspondent at Business Insider and host of Channels, a podcast about the media industry. And it’s a big week for the media industry — Comcast just announced that it’s splitting itself up, into the Comcast broadband company and the NBCUniversal entertainment company. That’s after […]

The Claude Reflect dashboard is like a mix of Spotify Wrapped and the screen time tool on your phone.

New York has banned smart glasses in all 1,240 state, county, city, town and village courts.

The popularity of Spotify Wrapped has kicked off a wide range of year-in-review features, on apps from YouTube to Uber - and now, the lookback trend has come to AI. Anthropic on Thursday announced a "reflect" feature for its Claude chatbot, allowing users to see an analysis of their usage data over the past month, […]

Character.AI's plan to become more than just an LLM-powered chatbot platform is going beyond interactive books, comics, and audio dramas. Today, the company announced the debut of c.ai Series - short-form, episodic videos designed to be watched and interacted with - on your phone. Unlike traditional microdrama services that feature cheaply produced, live-action shows starring […]

In an interesting twist that takes advantage of the company's core product, users can chat with these shows' characters, ask them questions, and even roleplay different storylines.

Benchmark-backed Ollama has amassed 176,000 stars, and nearly 17,000 forks on Github by helping developers easily run AI on their PCs.

Last year, Image Line introduced Gopher for FL Studio, an AI chatbot that was basically a glorified instruction manual. You asked it how to do something, and it would serve up the relevant instructions. It's the kind of thing I actually use AI for on a semi-regular basis. But in the new release, Gopher can […]

OpenSuperWhisper 评测：macOS 上最被低估的开源语音转文字工具？ 30秒结论 ：OpenSuperWhisper 是一个基于 OpenAI Whisper 模型的 macOS 原生听写（dictation）应用。如果你受够了 macOS 自带听写的间歇性抽风，或者不想每月交钱给 Otter.ai，这个免费开源项目值得一试。 但别期待开箱即用 ——你需要自己配置模型、处理依赖，而且目前只支持 macOS。 适合人群：macOS 重度用户、需要离线语音转文字、对隐私敏感、愿意折腾配置的开发者。 不适合：Windows/Linux 用户、不想碰终端的人、需要实时流式转写（目前不支持）。 核心功能：代码实操 1. 安装部署 # 克隆仓库 git clone https://github.com/Starmel/OpenSuperWhisper.git cd OpenSuperWhisper # 安装依赖（需要 Python 3.10+） pip install -r requirements.txt # 直接运行 python app.py 坑点1 ： requirements.txt 里没写版本号，我踩了 numpy 版本冲突的坑。建议手动指定： pip install numpy == 1.26.0 torch == 2.1.0 whisper == 20231117 坑点2 ：macOS 14 Sonoma 上需要手动授权麦克风权限。第一次运行会 crash，因为没处理 PermissionError 。workaround：在 System Settings > Privacy & Security > Microphone 里手动勾上终端或 Python 的权限。 2. 基本使用 启动后会在菜单栏出现一个小图标（类似 macOS 原生听写）。快捷键是 Option + Space （可自定义）。 核心逻辑：按下快捷键 → 录音 → 松开 → 调用 Whisper 转写 → 结果写入当前光标位置。 代码层面 ，核心函数在 whisper_handler.py 里： # 简化版核心逻辑 import whisper import sounddevice as sd import numpy as np class WhisperHandler : def __init__ ( self , model_size = " base " ): self . model = whisper . load_model ( model_size ) self . sample_rate = 16000 def transcribe_from_mic ( self , duration = 5 ): # 录音 recording = sd . rec ( int ( duration * self . sample_rate ), samplerate = self . sample_rate , channels = 1 ) sd . wait () audio = recording . flatten (). astype ( np . float32 ) # 转写 result = self . model . transcribe ( audio , language = " zh " ) return result [ " text " ] 实测 ：默认 model_size="base" 时，中文准确率约 85%。换成 "large-v3" 能到 92%，但首次加载要 2GB 内存，转写一条 10 秒语音需要 8-12 秒（M1 Pro 芯片）。 3. 自定义快捷键 config.yaml 里可以改： hotkey : modifier : " option" key : " space" model : size : " base" # 可选: tiny, base, small, medium, large-v3 device : " cpu" # 或 "mps" (Apple Silicon) output : paste_delay : 0.3 # 转写后粘贴延迟，防止焦点丢失 注意 ： device: "mps" 在 macOS 14.2 上会报 MPS backend not available 。需要安装 PyTorch 的 MPS 版本： pip install torch torchvision torchaudio --index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/nightly/cpu 性能测试 测试环境：MacBook Pro M1 Pro (

When people picture "coding," they picture fast typing and features coming to life. Nobody pictures the real majority of the job: staring at a stack trace or lets say a particular project trying to figure out why something that should work, isn't. Here's what nobody tells you starting out — getting good at debugging has almost nothing to do with how well you write code, and everything to do with how well you read. The real difference between beginners and experienced devs isn't complex knowledge — it's that experienced devs read carefully and form a hypothesis before touching anything. Beginners (me included) tend to skip straight to changing code and hoping. It feels faster. It rarely is. One thing i'd like to advise other fellow beginner devs is ....Slow down, read the error properly, and follow the stack trace to where it actually starts — not where it ends up. What's a bug that taught you this the hard way?
