In an impressive feat, Japanese startup Sakana AI’s coding agent ALE-Agent recently secured first place in the AtCoder Heuristic Contest (AHC058), a complex coding competition that involves complicated optimization problems — and a more difficult and perhaps telling challenge than benchmarks like HumanEval, which mostly test the ability to write isolated functions, and which many AI models and agents now regularly pass with ease ("benchmark saturation"). Sakana's accomplishment with ALE-Agent hints at a shi

Reverse-engineering Marathon's visual mood board magic

If extraction shooters are games in which you duck out of the fray between matches to look at what you just collected, I guess I'm almost playing Marathon the right way. I struggle to keep up with a team, let alone support other players in any meaningful manner, and I'm truly useless in most gunfights. But when the game is over I'm still eagerly checking through my winnings. Read more Read more

Установка Arch Linux на ZFS

Привет! Меня зовут Денис, я 3D-художник и Linux-энтузиаст. Более 8 лет Arch Linux является моей основной и единственной операционной системой.

There’s a specific kind of grief that hits when you realize your parents weren’t strict because they didn’t trust you. They were strict because the world they grew up in punished mistakes permanently, and control was the only form of love that felt safe enough to offer.

Strict parenting often wasn't about distrust — it was the only language of love available to people who grew up in worlds that punished mistakes permanently. Recognising that creates a particular kind of grief that's harder to process than simple resentment. Read more

As models get smarter and more capable, the "harnesses" around them must also evolve. This "harness engineering" is an extension of context engineering, says LangChain co-founder and CEO Harrison Chase in a new VentureBeat Beyond the Pilot podcast episode. Whereas traditional AI harnesses have tended to constrain models from running in loops and calling tools, harnesses specifically built for AI agents allow them to interact more independently and effectively perform...

With agentic AI, businesses are conducting business more dynamically. Instead of traditional pre-programmed bots and static rules, agents can now “think” and invent alternate paths when unseen conditions arise. For instance, using a business domain ontology like FIBO (financial industry business ontology) can help keep agents within guardrails and avoid unwanted behavior. The bottleneck is now in the user experience (UX) layer. While agents are dynamic and transform with the... Read more
