Why can AI generate Super Mario but not a wedge ramp for my robot vacuum?https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49405520I've been puzzled by something: AI generation can produce an elaborate figurine, a cartoon character, even a convincing Super Mario — yet it can't reliably make a simple wedge ramp so my robot vacuum can climb a step. For context: I bought a Bambu P2S but can't model. I tried the "describe it and get a model" AIs — the output is unusable, you can't adjust it, it's never quite what I meant. I tried having an agent write Python to build geometry directly — it tops out at simple primitives. What finally worked: geometric decomposition. I break a complex part into ordered, grouped steps, describe each as a small spec, and let an agent execute them in Blender (via blender-mcp). That process turned out to abstract into a small engine — the key insight being it converts the 3D spatial reasoning LLMs are bad at, into the structured code they're good at. I wrote it up here: https://github.com/zhuchaokn/spec-3d-model My questions: - Why is "functional part" generation so much weaker than "figuri

Show HN: Hands-Rust MCP/CLI that sees the Windows desktop and clicks real Chromehttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49405405I built Hands because I wanted a coding agent to use this Windows PC and a real Chrome profile the way I do: look at the screen, move the real mouse, type, click , without turning Chrome into an automation browser.It is a Rust MCP/CLI. A harness (Grok, Codex, Claude Code, OpenCode, etc.) calls tools like observe, click, type, scroll. Observe is a screenshot path plus a small element list (UIA + optional Chrome DOM ids). Click is OS SendInput on a Bézier path, not a Chrome DevTools click.There is no Playwright, no Puppeteer, no remote debugging port. Daily Chrome is launched with no extra flags, or attached if it’s already open. Sites that key on CDP/automation flags mostly don’t see that. They can still see injected input (LLMHF_INJECTED).A tiny unpacked Chrome extension can fuse page structure (chr: ids, listing cards) so the model isn’t guessing from pixels. Sideload is manual. Fusion dies if the service worker goes inactive; reload the card.What it is good for: personal research on

Where are people finding GPU capacity?https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49403759Is it just me or is GPU capacity surprisingly hard to find right now , even in Spot pools? I’ve been trying to get H100s and the Spot pools I’ve checked are pretty much always full.I ended up trying MI350/MI355s on DigitalOcean Spot and have been running them for about a week without getting interrupted. Curious if anyone else has tried them? How often are you actually getting reclaimed?Also, where are you guys finding capacity these days?

Show HN: Knowl – CLAUDE.md hit 1000 lines, so I built memory that prunes itselfhttps://github.com/dat999zx/knowlUsing AI agents is amazing, but in long-term, I started to have more and more problems about the context of them. They keep forgetting what we are working on, opening a new chat session clears all their context, my CLAUDE.md had like 1000 lines.So I thought to install those agent memory that are on the market. Started out great, but I noticed that those memory only append and does not fix what is stale. First day I told it to use Lemon Squeezy as our MoR but second day I tell it to change to Polar. But when I ask it again, they keeps returning both answers or cannot decide which we are using.That's why I created Knowl. Knowl solves the problem with freshness of the knowledge. It split the knowledge into small data bits called "atom". Atoms can be of the following types: fact, decision, goal, constraint, architecture, state, skill so we can retrive atoms in categories.When conflict happens at write-time (a new atom conflicts with an old one), Knowl retires the old one (flag it with supe
