MILP··on Gemini 4 Argon
I'm also not using it for coding but I've found Flash 3.8 to generate much better HTML output than Sonnet or Opus.
MILP··on A Preview of DuckDB v2.0
Love DuckDB. It’s so fast and portable! I mainly use the query engine as part of my ETL process for creating SQLite database. I’d love to pitch it at work, but we’re heavily invested in BigQuery, which makes it a bit difficult.
MILP··on Gemini 3.6 Flash, 3.5 Flash-Lite, and 3.5 Flash Cyber
I'm a big fan of the Flash-Lite models. They're exceedingly fast and deliver great outputs for high volume use cases where you need to process requests at scale. Can't wait to try the newer version.
MILP··on Optimization Solver as a Service
Just curious, what kind of problems are you solving?
MILP··on IBM Announces Strategic Collaboration with Arm
Maybe they want to add quantum to CPLEX!
MILP··on Ask HN: What are some impressive vibe coding projects?
I built a Python script (with a little help from Claude) that scrapes YouTube for football (soccer) match highlights each game week, filters them using regex + Gemini, and emails me the compiled list.

MILP··on Show HN: Elevate your routes with OR-Tools, the library trusted by Google
Hello OP here,

Link: https://multistopopt.streamlit.app/

- Recently I found out that Google Maps doesn't automatically reorder points. One has to manually do the optimization. So I decided to use Google's own wonderful optimization library OR-Tools to do this. This seems to work :). Feedback is highly appreciated.

- Along the way, I found that there are paid services that do this. Well here is my humble attempt.

- One of the most surprising things I observed is that you can only place 10 points in GMaps for routing and apparently GMaps work for only up to 25 points (by manipulating the URL). Beyond that, no paths are shown between points. Apparently, there is an open issue [1] for this since 2014 :). For more than 25 points, I have added the functionality of printing the ordered coordinates.
