Kilo just broke through the 1 trillion tokens a month barrier on OpenRouter for the first time. Each of the open source family of AI coding tools (Cline, Roo, Kilo) is growing rapidly this month. Part of this growth is caused by Cursor and Claude starting to throttle their users. We wrote about Cursor at the beginning of July and about Claude in the second half of July. Their throttling sent users to the open source family of AI coding tools causing the increases you see in the graphs above. C

The Trump administration has finally issued new guidance that states can use to dole out $5 billion in funding for electric vehicle charging infrastructure, after spending months withholding the money. A coalition of states sued over the funding freeze in the National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (NEVI) program, which was one of the administration’s many attempts to stop funding appropriated by Congress at the start of Donald Trump’s second term.

Learn, Reflect, Apply, Prepare: The Four Daily Practices That Changed How I Live

news.ycombinator.com Sainath Krishnamurthy 2025-12-10 16:06:04

In a world obsessed with hacks, sprints, and overnight success, I’ve been drawn to something quieter, simpler, and, at least for me, more sustaining: a daily rhythm built around four verbs. No apps. No dashboards. Just a living experiment I return to every day: Learn. Reflect. Apply. Prepare. I haven’t mastered this. Far from it. But the more I practice, the more I notice how these four verbs gently shape my days, especially when things feel chaotic or uncertain. 1. Learn Something Every Day

UFC Streaming Moves to Paramount Plus in Multi-Billion-Dollar Deal

cnet.com See Full Bio 2025-12-10 17:37:00

Fight fans may have to rethink their entertainment plans.

The agreement, with UFC parent company TKO Group, will put all UFC events on Paramount-owned platforms, including Paramount Plus and CBS. That means fans who are used to occasionally forking out for a pay-per-view UFC fight will have to consider a Paramount Plus subscription instead

OneNote is a powerful note-taking app, but that doesn't necessarily mean it has all the features you want. One of the missing features is 'Paste as text only,' and it's finally coming to OneNote. In a blog post, Microsoft confirmed that it's testing the ability to paste text only (plain format).

The Joy of Mixing Custom Elements, Web Components, and Markdown I love Markdown. I write faster and more natively in it than any other format or tool. If we zoom way out, here’s the most basic philosophy of Markdown: replace complicated stuff with simpler stuff. That’s all it does, really. It replaces some tedious nested taggy stuff with way simpler stuff that makes more visual sense and is faster to type. At its core, Markdown is really just a bunch of macros.

Techno-noir is having a comeback, but cyberpunk vibes have been around for decades. Movies like the Matrix may have popularized the genre, but it's full of underrated gems. Films in the genre combine jaded perspectives, futuristic dystopian settings and dark vibes. One of my overlooked favorites is Dark City, a mind-bending techno-noir thriller that explores the idea of identity against the backdrop of a city swathed in darkness.
