Rethinking CLI interfaces for AI

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-07-19 16:58:42

We need to augment our command line tools and design APIs so they can be better used by LLM Agents. The designs are inadequate for LLMs as they are now – especially if you're constrained by the tiny context windows available with local models. Agent APIs Like many developers, I’ve been dipping my toes into LLM agents. I’ve done my fair share of vibe coding, but also I’ve been playing around with using LLMs to automate reverse engineering tasks mostly using mrexodia’s IDA Pro MCP , including ex

‘Star Trek: Strange New Worlds’ Isn’t Done With the Gorn Yet

gizmodo.com Justin Carter 2025-07-19 20:15:17

The third season of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds finally started this week, and its opener, “Hegemony, Part II,” picked up right where the last season left off. But along the way, it surprisingly ended up taking the Gorn—a Trek mainstay and the show’s longest-running threat—off the board. In the episode itself, the Enterprise crew stop Captain Batel from Gorn infection, prevent their invasion of the Federation, and rescue their crew members captured by the Gorn at the end of last season.

Angry Callers Accusing Real Customer Support Staff of Being AI

A penny for the thoughts of our thankless call center workers. Long have they had to endure indignant customers fuming at them for problems beyond their control. And now they must suffer accusations that call their very humanity in question, Bloomberg reports, as the proliferation of AI tech has many callers suspecting that the human they're speaking to is actually a chatbot.

Corning avoids EU antitrust fine by ending exclusive deals with phone manufacturers

Corning, the US-based glass manufacturer behind Gorilla Glass, has vowed to end its exclusive deals and other practices that the European Commission deemed to be anti-competitive in order to avoid getting fined. If you'll recall, the commission announced that it was investigating Corning last year, accusing it of squashing competition with its exclusive supply agreements, thereby driving up prices and stifling innovation.

Is Climate Change an Existential Threat?

gizmodo.com Ellyn Lapointe 2025-07-19 20:00:29

If a 60-mile-wide (100-kilometer-wide) asteroid slammed into Earth tomorrow, it would render the planet inhospitable to nearly all life forms, save for the hardiest extremophiles. This mass extinction event would wipe humanity off the face of the Earth—there would be no survivors. To some experts, this is the true definition of an “existential threat.” Traditionalists will say this term describes a risk that endangers the very existence of something—in this case, the human species.

‘Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse’ Is Delayed Again, but Only for a Bit

gizmodo.com Germain Lussier 2025-07-20 04:40:41

Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse has been delayed yet again, only this time, it’s less of a problem and more of a recalibration. The third and final film in the Oscar-winning animated trilogy was originally supposed to be out in early 2024 but was then delayed all the way to June 4, 2027. Now, Sony has tweaked that further and moved the film back three more weeks to June 25, 2027. The reason for this move isn’t because production needs more time, however.

James Gunn and DC Haven’t Started Casting Wonder Woman… Yet

The holy trilogy of James Gunn’s DC Universe is slowly coming together. Part one, of course, is Superman, which is now in theaters. A Batman movie is being written (in addition to Matt Reeves’ new Batman movie), and, of late, there’s been lots of talk about Wonder Woman too. As co-president of DC Studios, Gunn recently confirmed a Wonder Woman script is being written, and subsequent rumors suggested the film was being fast-tracked. Well, that’s partially true, Gunn said. “It’s a priority, but I

A New Geometry for Einstein's Theory of Relativity

Kunzinger and Sämann wanted to use their new way of estimating curvature to determine whether these singularity theorems would still be valid if they no longer assumed space-time is smooth. Would singularities persist even in rougher, more realistic-looking spaces? It’s important to find out if the smoothness condition can be waived, Sämann said, because doing so would bring the theorems closer to physical reality. After all, he added, “we believe non-smoothness is an inescapable part of the nat

In his genre-defining 1950 collection of science fiction short stories "I, Robot," author Isaac Asimov laid out the Three Laws of Robotics: 1. A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm. 2. A robot must obey the orders given it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law. 3. A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law. Ever since, the elegant
