An Entire Wikipedia That's 100% AI Hallucinations

"Every link leads to an entry that does not exist yet," explains the GitHub page for a Wikipedia-like site called Halupedia. "Until you click it, at which point an LLM pretends it has always existed and writes it for you, in the deadpan register of a 19th-century scholarly press..." Every article is invented on demand. The footnotes are also lies... The hardest problem with an infinite, on-demand encyclopedia is internal... Read more

Weekly deals: the Galaxy S26 series is on sale, Motorola Razr 2026 series goes on pre-order

The Samsung Galaxy S26+ (256GB) is currently $890 on Amazon – that’s a bit lower than we’ve seen it at for the past few weeks and $200+ off on a phone that’s less than three months old is a solid discount. That said, the 2026 model doesn’t bring many updates over its predecessor – there’s the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 and the slightly faster wireless charging (20W vs. 15W,... Read more

Я сделал альтернативу Cursor за выходные: она ничего не пишет за программиста и приносит 1,29 млн рублей в месяц

Это пародия... на многоеСтатья‑интервью написана на основе разговора с Артёмом, основателем проекта Stopilot — редактора кода, который помогает разработчику не писать код, пока тот не понял задачу.Большинство историй про AI‑инструменты выглядят одинаково: человек открывает Cursor, за выходные собирает SaaS, выкладывает скриншот MRR и дальше объясняет, что главное — не думать, а быстро валидировать гипотезы. Рынок не ждёт, окно возможностей закрывается, конкуренты уже деплоят.Артём пошёл в другую сторону. Он Read more

Push-уведомления в мессенджере: production-грабли которых нет в туториалах

Это девятая статья про инженерные решения в ONEMIX. Тема узкая, push-уведомления. Но я её давно хотел разобрать, потому что туториалов в интернете много, а production-граблей в них почти нет.Если коротко, туториал по push выглядит так. Регистрируешь токен через Notifications.getExpoPushTokenAsync(). Отправляешь на бэкенд. Когда приходит пуш — addNotificationResponseReceivedListener ловит тап, навигируешь в нужный экран. Всё.В реальном мессенджере таких туториалов недостаточно. Появляется десяток узких пробл Read more
