Back in February, I went to Los Angeles to take in some art and stayed in Koreatown. Down the street from my hotel, there was this little coffee shop - Stagger - that is, I think, best known for its matcha, which is good. But the drink I unexpectedly found myself obsessed with was their […]

Anyone else get a lot of dumb scam calls? These days I mostly get them on my mobile. I used to just ignore them, but then I got fed up and built a bot that answers my calls and wastes their time. It runs on OpenAI Live 1. Jev classifies each call as spam, scam or genuine and steers the bot accordingly. Works like a charm. All my calls go to the bot now. I can also steer it from Telegram mid-call. In this one the bot ended up accusing the scammer of being an AI :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SpuTzRg8_fU Comments URL: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=50140472 Points: 1 # Comments: 0
Here you have 13 different rocket engine technologies, 9 have flown, 3 built and test fired, but not flown and 1 never completed. I created this site because I wanted to learn more about rocket engines and how they work. My background is HVAC/plumbing engineer and 3D artist, not rocket engineer, so I built this just out of my personal curiosity. Here you can investigate each motor type and learn what each part does, explode and cutaway the model and see how fuel and oxidizer flow to generate the thrust. Site is created using Claude Opus 5.5. Claude made also the 3D models using Blender MCP. S…

Hi again! Existing text to speech or ebook to audiobook apps usually rely on KokoroTTS and don't process the pdf in a reliable way, so it often ends up reading all the front matter/opening section OCR artifacts and other crap in a machine-sounding voice. My app first fixes the content structure using an LLM and then uses heavier models to get voices with natural intonation across more than 40 languages. About a year ago when I posted this it was still just an idea, now its becoming a real thing. Any feedback appreciated. Comments URL: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=50140422 Points: 2 #…

Is it possible to reverse-engineer and rebuild VEGAS Pro as open source? reverse-engineered and reimplemented as an open-source video editor, similar to projects that recreate proprietary software functionality? I’m interested in reproducing its distinctive timeline workflow, .veg project format, effects, transitions and audio editing. How feasible is this technically? Could .veg project files be reverse-engineered and supported? Are there existing tools or projects to start with? What would be the biggest obstacles? The goal would be an independent implementation, not copying proprietary s…

These are my thoughts on modern software development. Everything is subscription based software as a service, even if there is no clear benefits of it being in the cloud (for the user). Writing offline-first apps also provide a way to prove that you are not going to sell user data.

By eight, children’s interests and skills are taking shape. They’re more confident readers, more strategic thinkers and curious about how things work.

I noticed that a lot of non-technical people don’t use AI to its full extent. Like they use the wrong model for the task, the wrong reasoning effort, or vague prompts. That gap between "what the AI can do" and "what people actually get" is what I wanted to fix. So I spent the last two years in my spare time building a consumer AI product that tries to fix this issue. This is how it works: When it receives the request, an LLM decides the task type (chat, reasoning, coding, writing) and the tool calls that are needed (web search, image generation, video generation, audio generation). Then it…

The technically interesting part is a low-latency, self-correcting pipeline for speech-to-text and translation. It has two modes: Sentence mode: buffers until a sentence boundary, then translates with full con…
