‘Nowhere to Lay My Eyes’ Review: Kim Minhee Once More Gives a Melancholy Masterclass in a Hong Sangsoo Miniaturehttps://variety.com/2026/film/reviews/nowhere-to-lay-my-eyes-review-1236835338/The death-and-taxes certainty of Hong Sangsoo’s filmography — comparable to Woody Allen’s prime career run in its regularity, consistency and recurrence of ideas and actors across a gently varying tonal spectrum — has lately been infused with some mild unpredictability. Earlier this year, his Berlinale premiere “The Day She Returns” continued an occasional experimental jag […]

Show HN: I spent 3 months making desktop automation stop lying to AI agentshttps://github.com/lahfir/agent-desktop/tree/mainThat's a bold claim. But I genuinely feel like I might have actually solved computer use (demo: https://x.com/mdlahfir/status/2088109763783700827?s=20)For context, I've been building agent-desktop (Inspired by agent-browser by Vercel Labs), an automation CLI for desktop apps. It's like Playwright but for desktops, not just native, but for Chromium apps as well. Trust me, yes, Chromium apps whose accessibility tree is dense.MacOS is GA; I'm almost close to launching for Windows and Linux!So, how did I solve it?Basically interoperability.The biggest issue with computer use is that we have reliable frameworks for browser use, like Playwright, agent-browser, and many more, but not the same with desktops.We have really good solutions emerging, like tryCua, which I'm a big fan of. My vision with agent-desktop is to build the most reliable framework that agents can use for long-horizon tasks.agent-desktop is lightweight, built on Rust, fast, and not token-hungry (It can go for hours without e

Show HN: I built a Claude Code plugin to query 10.6M earnings-call embeddingshttps://fn2.ai/claudeHi HN,I've been using LLMs for one-off market questions against a database of earnings transcripts since ~2025. In tech years that's a long time so as a Solo dev I built a platform around it and have been adding miscellaneous other financial tools and integrations. Backend infrastructure is super boring! PostgreSQL & ElasticSearch, with the data appropriately sharded and replicated across two regions.Some example requests:"What did NVIDIA say about data-center demand on its last call?""Brief me on NVDA, AMD and AVGO before each market open""Notify me when AAPL moves more than 5% in a day."The plugin is dependency-free Python and MIT licensed. The corpus, vector search and scheduled-agent service are hosted, so using them requires a free FN2 account. I’m particularly interested in whether people find the scheduled-research part useful, but the basic features are free with integrations for Claude Code, Hermes Agent, OpenClaw, etc. Thanks!

Show HN: I asked Claude to turn 20 years of my research into a gamehttps://playhyperbubble.com/I'm a professor of advanced technology transitions at ASU, and part of my work includes pushing at the edges of what frontier models can and can't do. Out of curiosity I asked Fable 5, via Claude Code, to research the past two decades of my research and design a browser game from it — something that would stand up as a game on its own, but that genuinely reflected the work.Over 90 iterations later (this was a long collaborative effort) the result was Hyperbubble — a one-button browser-based game where your task is to navigate your character through a future of emerging technologies, complex risks, transformative possibilities, and unexpected delights, all while protecting and growing their state of “flourishing.” Each element of the game tracks back to aspects of my work — even the seemingly weird ones!Sharing as an example of how emerging AI capabilities are allowing complex ideas to be translated into modes and platforms that would have been exceptionally difficult to achieve without

When housing is unaffordable, this artist’s device makes pedaling harderhttps://www.theverge.com/tech/980359/ground-truth-justin-blinder-housing-affordable-bike-pedalJustin Blinder had just been laid off when he first came up with the idea for Ground Truth. It was 2020, two weeks before covid lockdown went into effect, and the Brooklyn-based artist and technologist had no idea what the future would hold. He started working for the food delivery apps, and as he was riding his bike across the city, he began noticing the stark differences between neighborhoods. "...
