A new experimental technology encodes messages in video using motion-based steganography, exploiting how AI models process video as individual frames rather than continuous motion.

SQLite's flexible typing lets you store anything anywhere. STRICT mode fixes that - here's why you should enable it for every new table.

A new essay argues that letting AI generate sloppy code creates a downward spiral where future AI absorbs those bad patterns. HN's 250+ comment thread is split between believers and pure vibe-coders.

Apple filed suit against OpenAI alleging systematic theft of hardware trade secrets by former employees. The complaint names specific individuals, describes exploited security vulnerabilities, and claims this is 'the tip of the iceberg.'

A solo developer built a 1,300-line C inference engine that runs the 744B GLM 5.2 model on consumer hardware by streaming routed experts from disk. Here's how it works.

Ginger Bill argues that the best tools disappear during use - and that celebrating workarounds is a sign your tool has failed you.

OpenAI claims GPT-5.6 Sol Ultra has generated a proof for a 50-year-old graph theory conjecture in under an hour. The math community is now verifying whether it holds up.
