Hello HN! We're Dillon and Francesco from Cua. We were wondering how many computer use tasks actually need a full general purpose LLM (e.g. gpt-6-astra, claude-opus-5 etc.) to think through all their decisions and steps. Some tasks require thinking about a plan, exploring different paths, recovering from failure. Other tasks are a question of making local decisions, like this value should go in this box, or should I check this box, or this element should be ignored.

This model makes calibrated, typed decisions about an image plus optional text. It answers choice, score and noul (yes/no probability) questions in one forward pass, with no text generation. It adds image input to Laya by replacing Laya's ModernBERT encoder with SmolVLM-256M-Instruct. Laya's predict(state, questions) API, proper-scoring-rule training and temperature calibration are unchanged. check out the live demo at https://huggingface.co/spaces/thaitea/laya-vision-demo and the source - https://huggingface.co/thaitea/laya-vision-smolvlm-256m - https://github.com/r33drichards/laya-vision Co…

This is my first HN submission :) After a colleague decided to build his on web app clone of the original material-named service, I thought I would make my own take on it in the terminal, using the OpenTUI framework. I also use tmux and git worktrees quite a bit, so I added a handy "w" shortcut to create a worktree for a given PR, and open a new tmux window in that worktree. Btw, if you don't use tmux, the worktree just gets created in the background. Hope it can…

Hi folks, just released a personal project of mine, called Kobblestone. Essentially, it's an operator for Kubernetes, allowing you to manage Minecraft infrastructure on Kubernetes. It's not just a small wrapper for deploying servers, it aims to integrate the whole Minecraft ecosystem on Kubernetes (routers, networks, commands, backups, etc.). I'd highly appreciate your feedback and I am looking forward to potential contributions! Thanks. Comments URL: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49765874 Points: 2 # Comments: 0
