Nobody knows how to build with AI yet

news.ycombinator.com Scott Werner 2026-01-12 18:45:01

Last week I released Protocollie. Built in 4 days with languages I don’t know, without even directly touching the code. People keep asking “how?” but I’m not entirely sure it’ll work the same way twice. We’re all making this up as we go. The Great Experiment Nobody's Running the Same Way There's this moment in every new technology where everyone pretends they know what they're doing. We're past that moment. Or maybe we haven't reached it yet. Either way, we're in this delicious middle ground

How to Buy an Electric Bike (2025): Classes, Range, Repairs

wired.com Stephanie Pearson 2026-01-12 16:00:00

Love them or hate them, electric bikes are here to stay. Between 2019 and 2023, electric bikes represented 63 percent of the growth in dollar sales of all bicycles. Translated to actual numbers, the US ebike market was valued at $1.98 billion in 2022. It’s expected to grow by 15.6 percent from 2023 to 2030. Some electric bike customers haven’t been on two wheels since they rode a Schwinn Stingray with a banana seat; others are lifelong cyclists who want a little extra oomph to flatten the hills

At Least 750 US Hospitals Faced Disruptions During Last Year’s CrowdStrike Outage, Study Finds

wired.com Andy Greenberg 2026-01-12 18:54:06

When, one year ago today, a buggy update to software sold by the cybersecurity firm CrowdStrike took down millions of computers around the world and sent them into a death spiral of repeated reboots, the global cost of all those crashed machines was equivalent to one of the worst cyberattacks in history. Some of the various estimates of the total damage worldwide have stretched well into the billions of dollars. Now a new study by a team of medical cybersecurity researchers has taken the first

BMW M5 review: a PHEV worth its weight

theverge.com Peter Nelson 2026-01-12 15:00:00

After 40 years and six generations, 2025 marks the beginning of a new generation of the BMW M5: the G90 chassis. Featuring a ground-up redesign and a new plug-in hybrid powertrain, the specs are impressive. It’s not just its horsepower and torque numbers but its curb weight of 5,390 pounds, too. That’s no small figure, but the German brand’s never held back in this department, and it has never greatly impeded the badge. Well, until now. There’s a lot to like about the newest M5, especially in i

Nothing Phone 3 review: flagship-ish

theverge.com Dominic Preston 2026-01-12 17:00:00

Nothing says that the Phone 3 is its “first true flagship phone,” and it has put its money where its mouth is. The phone is getting a full US launch, and at $799, it costs exactly the same as a Pixel 9, Galaxy S25, or iPhone 16. That makes reviewing the Phone 3 refreshingly simple, because there are only two real questions that matter: is this as good as those three? And will it be as good as what we’re expecting from the new Pixel and iPhone models that are right around the corner? The answer

I spoke with an AI version of myself, thanks to Hume's free tool - how to try it

Chiken Brave/Getty Images If you've ever had the urge to converse with an AI version of yourself, now you can -- kind of. On Thursday, AI start-up Hume announced the launch of a new "hyperrealistic voice cloning" feature for the latest iteration of its Empathic Voice Interface (EVI) model, EVI 3, which was unveiled last month. The idea is that by uploading a short audio recording of yourself speaking -- ideally between 30 and 90 seconds -- the model should be able to quickly churn out an AI-ge

Cats as Horror Movie Villains

news.ycombinator.com Archer 2026-01-08 05:19:38

Do people like watching cats because of neoteny? I doubt it, because adult cats don’t look at all like babies. But then why do we have this odd fascination with every ordinary action of a cat and treating them as instances of a Platonic Cat? I speculate that there may be an evolutionary psychology reason: cats in Africa prey on primates to a degree I suspect few people appreciate, and this seems to have been true for millions of years, making them our apex predator. So perhaps we are still sligh

Apple Sues the YouTuber Who Leaked iOS 26

Leaks are a constant part of big product news cycles, particularly for companies like Apple. Online soothsayers like Jon Prosser and Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman have long predicted the content of upcoming Apple announcements, citing anonymous sources from within the company to glean glimpses of what’s next. They have been correct often enough to become a real pain for the Cupertino company. Now, Apple has seized upon an opportunity to fight back against leaks. In a complaint filed Thursday in US fe

For more than a decade, cryptocurrency lived in a regulatory gray zone.
