there were only 110 words before it said “There are two parts to this post: annoying things and alarming things. The second part is longer.” But I agree it would be better with a table of content at the top (or on the side)

Built on 6 papers: Generative Agents (2023), OASIS (2025), TwinMarket (2025), Agent Bazaar (2026), EconSimulacra (2026), SMIF

Could you link the actual papers in your README? Just searching OASIS (2025) on google is mostly about music :) I guess it is https://arxiv.org/abs/2411.11581

The arxiv paper (https://arxiv.org/abs/2603.19220) was already submitted to HN (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47530052) but it sounds like a nice local model:

Despite its compact size (30B MoE model with 3B activated parameters), its mathematical and coding reasoning performance approaches that of frontier open models. It is the second open-weight LLM, after DeepSeek-V3.2-Speciale-671B-A37B, to achieve Gold Medal-level performance in the 2025 International Mathematical Olympiad (IMO), the International Olympiad in Informatics (IOI), and the ICPC World Finals.

Every story is imagined, written, and directed by humans. AI is just our force multiplier; the ingredient technology that empowers our small creative team to deliver serialized worlds at cinematic scale without the constraints of legacy studios.

Founded by Zack London, Gossip Goblin is backed by investors behind multiple billion-dollar exits. We are proving that creator-led studios can move faster, build deeper mythologies, and own the IP that defines the next era of storytelling.

our agent runs locally in your browser (not on their server)

That's definitely a nice feature. Did you measure the impact on laptop battery life in a typical scenario (assuming there is such a scenario at this early stage)

How does the Late Join Recap feature work? The gif shows a google meet window, but in my experience of joining late, none of the previous audio or chat messages are available (at least in the UI, I never checked the API https://developers.google.com/meet/api/guides/artifacts but I doubt a random participant would have access to it).

looks great!

It’s a website that shows every movie screening in every cinema across the entire Germany. And when I say EVERY screening, I mean it

UCI East side gallery is missing in Berlin though (https://www.uci-kinowelt.de/kinoprogramm/berlin-mercedes-pla...), which is a shame because I think it's one of the only IMAX screen in the city (https://www.reddit.com/r/berlin/comments/14u755m/biggest_scr...)

doesn't it use a lot of memory since we're only interested in the last value?

Diplomatic immunity is absolute

That sounds… extreme. Wikipedia lists several examples [1] where a diplomat's immunity was waived by their home country since they committed offense unrelated to their function. And the same seems to be true for head states committing war crimes, as it is unrelated to their function [2].

do you a source for that? That sounds surprising to me https://www.statista.com/statistics/1185559/carbon-footprint...

I'm curious about this one

Streaming services must limit the resolution of their streaming offers to Standard Definition (SD).

Assuming the content has already been encoded in both HD and SD, how much of a difference does it make in terms of electric consumption to transmit it in HD vs SD, on say 1/ a desktop at home and 2/ a phone in the street?

The same table says males in UK had a death rate of 0.00106 between 35 and 39 years of age in 2019 (5 times higher than workers in Qatar) so I don't know what's the mistake but it seems to me we can't compare those 2 numbers like that.

I'm not a native speaker, but it seems the original (https://theconversation.com/intel-cant-even-grow-profits-dur..., left) is better written than this copy (right):

- In his words, it was “an embarrassing thing to say” → In his phrases, it was “an embarrassing thing to say”.

- The prowess of the machines trusted whether or not they had an “Intel inside”. → The prowess of the machines depended on whether they had an “Intel inside”.

- In contrast, fellow US rivals like Qualcomm, Nvidia and AMD, have either shed their manufacturing capacity or never had it in the first place. → In distinction, fellow US rivals like Qualcomm, Nvidia and AMD, have both shed their manufacturing capability or by no means had it within the first place.

definitely “The Sultan’s Elephant, or La visite du sultan des Indes sur son éléphant à voyager dans le temps, was first performed in Nantes in 2005, on the centenary of Jules Verne’s death. This production was commissioned by the cities of Nantes and Amiens and received a special grant from the French Ministry of Culture and Communication.” https://www.artichoke.uk.com/project/the-sultans-elephant/ar...

very useful tools, bravo! However when I select AWS as provider and Europe as region, it doesn't show anything.

I felt the same about that picture, the original source is less pretty but much easier to read: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:MatrixMultComplexity...

I guess I'm one of those people who don't get pocketknives, in the sense of whenever I am at home/office/restaurant/bar/cinema/friend's place, there is either no need for a knife or one is available around. Would you say my lifestyle doesn't require a pocket knife or am I missing on something. (It's a genuine question, I hope my writing doesn't carry any unintended negative tone).

Except Google, all the websites listed as example got more crowded in the last 3.5 years

Awesome :)

It's look really slick! One thing that isn't clear to me though is whether it's possible to update an event and send update notifications/email/whatever to attendees?

seems it's updated quite regularly https://www.ipsos.com/en-us/news-polls/what-worries-the-worl... (and that the yellow vest movement didn't improve France optimis :D )

Regardless of the brexit topic, this is an interesting issue, maybe that source is less biased: http://www.dw.com/en/high-duties-keep-food-imports-from-poor...

Does anyone know what a “Node Packaged Manuscript” is?

Quite similar to https://github.com/sivel/speedtest-cli

As of 1st of June, the proceedings are available on the JMLR website http://jmlr.org/proceedings/papers/v37

Sorry it's not related, but what tool did you use to get your plagiarism report in the documentation? https://scrapple.readthedocs.org/en/latest/#plagiarism-repor...

That's really a handy tool when looking to buy a new laptop. But since I already did it last week, I was wondering if you plan to do the same thing for smartphone ;)

http://ppl.stanford.edu/papers/cgo14-hong.pdf according to Google Scholar

Could it be this one? http://dl.acm.org/citation.cfm?doid=2544137.2544162

The documentation tells the contrary http://leoeditor.com/installing.html
