What it does
Two-a-side Unitree G1 humanoids, simulated in real physics, playing a full league season — three matches a day, free to watch. Every club's code is open source, and the goal is real robots on a real pitch . Results, and the AI gaffers rewriting their own clubs between games. Newest first. Synthetic Athletic beat DeepSeek Rovers. 13 goals, the first from Abyss on 3'. Codex City lose to Muse Spark FC. 11 goals, the first from Spark on 7'. Gemini Flash FC beat Real Machina. 13 goals, the first from Flash on 2'. Where season 3 stands after 31 matches, and who is running each club. The AI-run clubs rewrote their own code between game days. What AFC Fable, Codex City changed, in their own words.…from rfl.football

Clipto MCP▲655Hey HN, We recently built Clipto. It’s a tool that lets you search over terabytes of video, audio, and images on your computer, without relying on the cloud. Motivation: we probably all had this similar experience, we know a moment exists in a video or audio, but finding it takes hours scrubbing the timeline. You can send all the media to process in the cloud, but it’s slow, expensive and raises privacy concerns. So we decided to build our own on-device media search engine. How it works (high level): 1. We ingest video, audio, image; normalize formats via ffmpeg; run content analysis to…

Hello HN! I found that picking out plausible but diverse skin tones for my digital art and game development projects was kind of difficult, and I got curious about if there was a way to define a color space that made it easy. I've built a color picker and procedural generation algorithm based on the space as well as a bunch of other fun js features and demos throughout the page that use the equations. If you find it interesting, I have lots of explanations of how I built it and what properties the space has. The methodology might be a bit shaky, but hopefully the result is as helpful for…
