This one is for all the broke college CS students out there <3

If you're like me, you don't want to pay $20 a month for claude code :(

It's an amazing tool I love, but a recurring expense is the last thing I need. That's why I find myself jumping from tool to tool, using the daily or monthly free tier limits and constantly having to find new free tools.

That's where "AI For Brokies" comes in. Just a simple github repo with a readme file of some free AI tools you can use for building :)

https://github.com/Joe-Huber/AI-For-Brokies

The actual building behind this project was mostly the automatic tool adder, following an issue format! If you want to see it in action, please drop an issue explaining a tool you use and see the bot do it's magic!

Please feel free to leave a star! ⭐️ (pretty please) You can use it to save the list of tools for whenever you run out of credits!

Hey everyone,

I've been working on a Chrome extension called Scratch Copilot AI, and I wanted to share it with this community since I think it could be genuinely useful — especially for people who work with or teach using Scratch.

The basic idea: you chat with an AI assistant (Google's Gemini) directly inside the Scratch editor, and it does the heavy lifting for you. You can describe what you want in plain English, and it will generate block scripts, create sprites, manage assets, set variables, and even trigger the green flag — all without manually dragging blocks around.

Here's a rough overview of what it can do:

• Generate Scratch block scripts from natural language prompts • Automatically create and add sprites, costumes, sounds, and backdrops • Control the Scratch VM in real-time (start/stop, set variables, manipulate sprites) • Summarize your current project state on demand

The extension is open source and built with a modular architecture — there's a dedicated module for VM control, asset management, block building, and more. It hooks directly into the Scratch editor's execution context, so everything happens live inside your project.

To get started, you just load the extension in Chrome's developer mode, open any Scratch project, and enter your own Gemini API key (free tier works fine for most use cases).

The repo is on GitHub — happy to answer any questions, take feedback, or hear if anyone runs into issues. I'd also love to know if this would be useful for classrooms or coding workshops.

Thanks for reading!

Hello everyone I am from Bangladesh and in a hunch. I am a student who just finished his high school and thinking of persusing programming, I can say that I kinda have a very high curiosity on AI so I was regarding doing my bachelors in AI in China but some of my friends are saying not to go in a specific subject like AI that soon instead go there for CSE (computer science and engineering) after that do Masters in AI. Now I am lost as I can get why they are saying that but I also think doing AI won't be bad. As you guys are my senior what do you guys think?

I am a 4th-year CSE student and I want to do an AI/ML-related research/thesis.

For this purpose, which would be better: a MacBook (M5 Pro) latest or a Windows laptop with a dedicated GPU?

I’m a fourth year student in the UK and about to come to the US for a PhD.

I thought it’s a probably game then the best strategy is to just increase N to improve the expectation.

Spending the time on the other works made it impossible for me to grind the paper I like the most and pay it with the time it deserves.

So very sad but life lesson learned: focus and grind a work that you like, strongly believe in, and take the effort.

In the model it’s not only number x probability, but also the fact that the probability of an individual work getting accepted most of the time does scale with more effort (not necessarily linearly though).
