Show HN: Utilyze – an open source GPU monitoring tool more accurate than nvtop

2026-04-27 @ 13:55:43Points: 81Comments: 22

This becomes a problem when teams rely on that metric for capacity planning or optimization decisions, it can make underutilized systems look saturated.

We're releasing an open-source (Apache 2.0) tool, Utilyze, to measure GPU utilization differently. It samples hardware performance counters and reports compute and memory throughput relative to the hardware's theoretical limits. It also estimates an attainable utilization ceiling for a given workload.

We'd love to hear your thoughts!

Show HN: OSS Agent I built topped the TerminalBench on Gemini-3-flash-preview

2026-04-27 @ 12:35:55Points: 282Comments: 111

Since there are a lot of reports of deliberate cheating on TerminalBench 2.0 lately (https://debugml.github.io/cheating-agents/), I would like to also clarify a few things

1. Absolutely no {agents/skills}.md files were inserted at any point. No cheating mechanisms whatsoever

2. The cli agent was run in leaderboard compliant way (no modification of resources or timeouts)

3. The full terminal bench run was done using the fully open source version of the agent, no difference between what is on github and what was run.

I was originally going to wait for it to land on the leaderboard, but it has been 8 days and the maintainers do not respond unfortunately (there is a large backlog of the pull requests on their HF) so I decided to post anyways.

HF PR: https://huggingface.co/datasets/harborframework/terminal-ben...

It is astounding how much the harness matters, based on this and other experiments I have done.
