Ask HN: Company is rapidly cutting AI tool spend how to prep team?
5 by Snakes3727 | 8 comments on Hacker News.
Company I work for is now rapidly planning to scale down its AI tooling spend. Claude code access is basically getting removed and people are forbidden from using personal plans. Reasoning is cost apparently our monthly Claude bill has become astronomical for the org. Nearly 3x our saas's cloud spend. Apparently we are going to get limited access to codex at severely reduced plans. I have tried some local models such as Kimi, however most are barely functional. I am very concerned as the expectation of amount of work done is to remain consistent. Ignoring the fact teams have made entire workflows around Claude I am very worried and frustrated. How can I help my team ease this transition? Are their local models that run well on local machines that only have 16gb ram?

New ask Hacker News story: EVM-UI – visual tool to interact with EVM-based smart contracts

EVM-UI – visual tool to interact with EVM-based smart contracts 21 by magnusgraviti | 8 comments on Hacker News. Hey HN! We've built https://evm-ui.com, a free tool that allows you to interact with smart contracts visually. It started as an internal project while building Web3 apps for clients — we needed something more flexible and lightweight than Remix or Etherscan's UI. Unlike Etherscan or Polygonscan, you don't need to verify and open-source your smart contract to get a working UI. Paste the ABI (or load it from a template) and proceed. With EVM-UI, you can - Import contracts by address + ABI, or paste ABIs directly - Read/write functions with auto-generated UI (supports all Solidity types, including arrays) - Execute actions with smart inputs (dropdowns, min/max helpers, etc.) - Switch between EVM chains, testnets, or local RPCs within one workspace - Use developer tools (Keccak256, ABI encoder/decoder, address utils) - Share environments with your team and your cl...
