New ask Hacker News story: Where are people finding GPU capacity?

Where are people finding GPU capacity? 3 by adilhafeez | 1 comments on Hacker News. Is it just me or is GPU capacity surprisingly hard to find right now , even in Spot pools? I’ve been trying to get H100s and the Spot pools I’ve checked are pretty much always full. I ended up trying MI350/MI355s on DigitalOcean Spot and have been running them for about a week without getting interrupted. Curious if anyone else has tried them? How often are you actually getting reclaimed? Also, where are you guys finding capacity these days?

Ask HN: Why is HN missing a "go to top" link on long posts? 3 by KellyCriterion | 1 comments on Hacker News. Im wondering nearly every day: Is there maybe a reason HN does not have that typical "go to top" or "to top" link at the end of, at least very long, posts? Maybe we can file a change request @dang :-D

New ask Hacker News story: Qwen3.8 Fetches Weird URLs

Qwen3.8 Fetches Weird URLs 2 by Luker88 | 0 comments on Hacker News. I am working on opencode with the last qwen3.8-27B from unsloth (with dynamic 3.0 quants). while checking documentation for a rust project, instead of fetching the url it had listed in its own reasoning, it tried fetching urls like: https://routify-file-proxy-sg.oss-ap-southeast-1.aliyuncs.com/proxy_temp_file/production/2026-08-20/trace_0baf8c2b17874702866132490e0b56/requestId_97422c0041074091a68367881782d7b7/7c0791038d2f58b3a52c0f07714d3627.html?Expires=1818574288&OSSAccessKeyId=LTAI5t…QVZr&Signature=96y%2B…w%3D this happened in the same session, different batches, 16 times in total. It convinced itself there was some rewriting proxy in the webfetch tool. `Expires`, `trace` and `requestId` were consistent for a few requests, but they do change. `AccessKeyId` was always the same, "LTAI5t…QVZr" I did not add the `…` in the signature and access key. Probably training links, but that `Expires` number...

New ask Hacker News story: Ask HN: How do you review and validate LLM generated code?

Ask HN: How do you review and validate LLM generated code? 2 by darkLord19 | 2 comments on Hacker News. It's become very fast to generate code nowadays, but how do you review and test all of it? Every time you ask a model to review some piece of code, it comes back with different "findings". So, you still have to filter through the noise of their findings to get to actual defects. And if you try to do the full review manually, then it might take more time to just understand the code than writing it yourself from the beginning. As for testing, you can ask the LLM to write the tests, but you can't be sure if the tests actually assert the expected product flow or just write pass/fail tests for a piece of logic. I would like to know if you have any workflows, strategies, or tricks.

Ask HN: Any Curated Forum Directories? 4 by catuscubitus | 2 comments on Hacker News. Does anyone know any curated forum directories? Forums like in the early 2000s. Places that aren't owned and governed by some corporate overlord. Places with genuine interaction rather than senseless ragebait and "content" designed to generate likes and shares. Places that aren't merely echo-chambers.
