Show HN: Blast – Fast, multi-threaded serving engine for web browsing AI agents

Hi HN!

BLAST is a high-performance serving engine for browser-augmented LLMs, designed to make deploying web-browsing AI easy, fast, and cost-manageable.

The goal with BLAST is to ultimately achieve google search level latencies for tasks that currently require a lot of typing and clicking around inside a browser. We're starting off with automatic parallelism, prefix caching, budgeting (memory and LLM cost), and an OpenAI-Compatible API but have a ton of ideas in the pipe!

Show HN: I built a synthesizer based on 3D physics

I've been working on the Anukari 3D Physics Synthesizer for a little over two years now. It's one of the earliest virtual instruments to rely on the GPU for audio processing, which has been incredibly challenging and fun.

Gravito-optický efekt: Chytáme gravitační vlny na světlo?

Současné detektory gravitačních vln slyší jen "hluboké tóny" vesmíru do pár set kHz, což nám může bránit v zahlédnutí exotických jevů. Nový koncept gravito-optického efektu, využívající ohyb světla na gravitační vlně zesílený v optickém rezonátoru, slibuje otevřít okno k dosud neslyšeným vysokým frekvencím (MHz-GHz) a hledat tam stopy nové fyziky. http://www.osel.cz/14035-gravito-opticky-efekt-chytame-gravitacni-vlny-na-svetlo.html

What your emoji use says about your personality

Are you guilty of overusing the monkey covering its eyes emoji? Do you find it impossible to send a text without tacking on a laughing-crying face?

But beyond adding subtext or flirtatious nuance, your go-to emojis m
