NASA Advances High-Altitude Traffic Managementhttps://www.nasa.gov/centers-and-facilities/ames/nasa-advances-high-altitude-traffic-management/High-altitude flight is getting increasing attention from sectors ranging from telecommunications to emergency response. To make that airspace more accessible, NASA is developing an air traffic management system covering those altitudes and supplementing its work with real-time data from a research balloon in Earth’s stratosphere. Aircraft at high altitudes – 50,000 feet or higher, or roughly 10,000 to 20,000 feet above most commercial traffic – offer new […]Feb 17, 2026 4:36 PM

Show HN: Fixing AI's Core Flaws, A protocol cuts LLM token waste by 40–70%https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47045604WLM (Wujie Language Model), a protocol stack + world engine that rethinks AI from token prediction to structural intelligence. I built this to fix the problems we all deal with daily: hallucination, drift, uncontrollable behavior, black-box reasoning, unstructured knowledge, and chaotic world/agent generation.The Pain We Can’t Keep IgnoringCurrent LLMs/agents are token predictors, not intelligences. They suffer from:• Hallucination: No grounded structure → guesses instead of knowing.• Persona drift: Personality is prompt-hacked, not structural.• Uncontrollable behavior: Sampling, not deterministic structure.• Black-box reasoning: No traceable reasoning path.• Knowledge soup: Embeddings/vectors, no formal structure.• Fragile world models: Prediction, not interpretable structure.• Random generation: No consistent causal/world rules.We’ve patched these with RAG, fine-tuning, prompts, RLHF — but they’re band-aids on a foundational flaw: AI lacks structure.How WLM Solves ItWLM is a 7-layer Feb 17, 2026 10:01 AM

Show HN: CoolWulf AI – A personal AI assistant built in Go, optimized for macOShttp://coolwulfAI.comHey HN,I've been building CoolWulf AI (https://coolwulfai.com), a self-hosted personal AI assistant. After seeing OpenClaw blow up, I wanted to share what I've been working on — a different approach to the same problem.*Why I built this:*I tried OpenClaw and found the Node.js/TypeScript stack heavy for what's essentially a local agent. pnpm, Node 22+, React — lots of moving parts. I wanted something that's a single binary, zero runtime dependencies, and feels native on macOS. So I built it in Go.*How it's different from OpenClaw:*- *Single binary, no runtime needed.* Download, set your API key, run. No Node.js, no pnpm, no build step. One ~100 MB binary. - *Built in Go.* Fast startup, low memory footprint, compiles to a native executable. No garbage collector pauses from a JS runtime sitting in the background. - *macOS-native integrations.* Deep AppleScript-based control of Apple Notes, Reminders, Calendar, Terminal.app, and WeChat desktop. These aren't browser hacks — they use the natFeb 17, 2026 5:32 AM

Show HN: Mindweave – AI-powered personal knowledge hub with semantic searchhttps://www.mindweave.space/Hi HN,I built Mindweave to solve a problem I kept running into — I'd save bookmarks, notes, and links across different apps, then never find them again when I actually needed them.Mindweave lets you capture notes, links, and files in one place. The interesting part is what happens after: - Semantic search — find content by meaning, not just keywords. "That article about improving deep work" finds it even if those words don't appear in the content. Powered by pgvector cosine similarity on Gemini embeddings. - AI auto-tagging — Gemini generates tags on save, so you don't have to organize anything manually. - Knowledge Q&A — ask questions about your saved content using RAG. Retrieves relevant pieces, feeds them as context to Gemini, returns a grounded answer. Stack: Next.js 15 (App Router, Server Actions), PostgreSQL 16 + pgvector, Google Gemini (text-embedding-004, 768d), Drizzle ORM, Auth.js v5, Tailwind/shadcn. Deployed on Cloud Run. A few things I found interesting while building thisFeb 16, 2026 5:20 AM
