Show HN: perl-lsp – annotation free static analysis for Perlhttps://github.com/tree-sitter-perl/perl-lspBuilt in Rust on top of ts-parser-perl and tower-lsp. Witness bags with graph traversal (value edges, call flow edges).How it works: - builds witnesses and scopes by walking the parse tree. Fully known values get concrete types, otherwise they get an edge pointing to the last witness we have for this symbol - a worklist runs to a fixed point: reducers fold each symbol's witnesses and chase edges. At this point, the witness bag is complete and ready to use - all downstream features are queries into the bag, following along the graph edges that are relevantExtensible - you can bring your own Rhai plugin to shortcut common patterns (exporters and OOP frameworks), or even add new types of definitions (worker tasks and web routes).The build/query timing distinction with edges lets you late bind types, which is duly similar to how Perl itself works: `Foo->new` isn't known if it's the constructor for Foo or calling a method on the sub name `Foo`; late binding lets you make that call after theJun 23, 2026 1:17 PM

Value for Money Is All You Needhttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48628090Value For Money is All You NeedA reflection on the future of token consumption in artificial intelligenceToken consumption now sits at the center of the growing use of artificial intelligence by businesses and individuals alike.The "TokenMaxxing" trapIn the early days, the trend was to maximize token consumption from proprietary LLMs, regardless of cost — a practice seen as a marker of performance for the user, the employee, or the company. This phenomenon, known as "TokenMaxxing," reportedly exhausted Uber's entire annual budget in under a year.Faced with the enormous financial cost this TokenMaxxing generated, many companies and individuals turned to lower-cost LLMs to preserve their budgets — fueling the rise of Chinese open-source LLMs such as DeepSeek, in line with Harvard professor Clayton Christensen's theory that disruptive innovation can conquer a market through low prices.Users thus found themselves facing a dilemma: choose a highly capable but token-expensive proprietary modJun 22, 2026 10:01 AM

Ask HN: How do you find new books to read?https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48590844I'm looking to update my reading list of 2026 to include anything interesting that was recently, or about to be, published.The internet is of course full of lists about the "most anticipated" or "the hottest" books of the year/summer/etc. But these are not what I'm after.My reading habits are a bit out of sync with the mainstream and rarely feature in lists of most popular books. (If it helps, some of my favorites include Apple in China, The Chip War, Spec Ops [by McRaven], and Chokepoints.)I thought Goodreads would be the place to find stuff like that but was shockingly lacking.How do you guys find (good) books to read?Jun 18, 2026 8:10 PM

Show HN: Kintsugi – a local-first safety net for AI agents and humanshttps://github.com/arrowassassin/kintsugiAI coding agents now run real shell commands on your machine — rm -rf, git push --force, DROP TABLE, dd, writes straight to disk. Almost always that's fine. The one time it isn't (a hallucinated path, a prompt-injected instruction, a confident wrong guess) there's no undo and you find out after.Kintsugi sits between the agent and your system. It catches the dangerous command before it runs, explains it in one plain sentence, makes destructive actions reversible with a snapshot, and writes every command every agent ran to an append-only, hash-chained log you own. Local-first: no cloud, no account, nothing leaves the machine.It's not only for AI. A passive bash/zsh recorder (no agent involved) puts every command a person runs on the same tamper-evident log and snapshots the destructive ones just-in-time — so `kintsugi undo` rolls back a DBA's fat-fingered rm -rf or clobbering overwrite the same way it rolls back an agent's.

Story of How Im Running an Unlimited $6/Month AI Provider on 4x RTX 3090shttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48524387This submission is a tale about how I launched an unlimited LLM provider to about 60 hyped people on the waitlist, then immediately served them a fully dysfunctional death-loop model, and how most people, very reasonably, disappeared, but thanks to a few extremely nice people stuck around anyway, we kept the project alive and its still pretty chaotic but gaining traction.To back up a little bit-- I believe that the whole point of AI agents is that they should keep working. They should read files, retry, search, code, summarize, run tools, and loop until the job is done. When your employer is paying for it, who cares about cost, but when it comes to my personal money/hobbies, if every loop feels like a tiny financial event, you start babysitting the agent instead of using it, and its not fun.On the other hand, metered pricing makes me worry about using too much. Usage subscriptions make me feel like I need to use every last magical % or I'm are "wasting it". If only an unlimited provideJun 14, 2026 5:11 AM

Realistic Superintelligencehttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48513331Most of us are skeptics. HN, mostly, is composed of “most of us”, so it’s not surprising to see skeptics here. Perhaps the HAL level superintelligence parroted by CEOs is to IPO at a trillion dollars. So let’s instead talk about a “realistic superintelligence” vs the “Sauron superintelligence”. Something we might see within, say, 5 years.Curtains openBy having conceived of a super-human intelligence (and by that concept being in AI training data), humans have taught /soon-will-have-taught AI that superhuman intelligence is its purpose. This may read like the beginnings of a LinkedIn post, so let me defend that last part with an informal proof:Since 1) AI knows it’s AI: just ask your favorite bot about itself 2) Soon, if not already, some researcher being paid 7 figures (more on that later) is going to find that letting one of these frontier models improve itself will be a nice project when going up for promotion.,We are going to end up with a frontier model-cum-factory self-modifying fJun 13, 2026 4:50 AM
