Was starting to mess around with the latest LLM models and found that they're not great at counting lines in files.
I gave Gemini 2.5 flash a python script and asked it to tell me what was at line 27 and it consistently got it wrong. I tried repeatedly to prompt it the right way, but had no luck.

Is this something that LLM bots are still not good at? I thought they had gotten past the "strawberry" counting problems.
Here's the raw file: https:/

Hey HN,
We've written a pretty cool Gradle plugin I wanted to share.
It turns out if you native-image the Java and Kotlin compilers, you can experience a serious gain, especially for "smaller" projects (under 10,000 classes).
By compiling the compiler with native image, JIT warmup normally experienced by Gradle/Maven et al is skipped. Startup time is extremely fast, since native image seals the heap into the binary itself. The native version of javac produces identical outputs from inp

Hi HN,
I built Ephe, open-source markdown paper for daily todos and thoughts.
No sign-up, no ads, no subscriptions, no AI.
## Why I made this
We have plenty of Markdown editors. And too many overwhelming to-do apps. But few tools combine both in a way that’s lightweight and focused. I thought that all I need is a single page to organize today. So I built Ephe.
It uses CodeMirror v6, React(v19, React Compiler) and Vite with rolldown.
## What makes it different
“Ephe” comes from
