Axsuul··on Stripe's Knowledge AI Platform
Can anyone recommend something self-hosted that does this?
Axsuul··on Explaining to business people why building software is still hard
Factory workers that did repetitive things that didn't require any thinking got automated away by machines. But there are still factory workers today that do things that require thinking.

Machines don't go deep on problems, humans do. A machine has no will or purpose to solve a novel problem on their own. Hope that answers your question.

Axsuul··on Explaining to business people why building software is still hard
Why isn't a LLM as smart as a human? Therein lies your problem.
Axsuul··on AI coding has made CI a bottleneck, so we reworked ours to keep up
Technical skills are very much still required to take the product into maturity. Coding a prototype is very different from building something actually polished enough to generate value.

Why did you guys migrate away from Nomad?
Axsuul··on I said no and Apple said yes
Most people are not like you and don’t care about this. They just want something that works.
Axsuul··on Show HN: CUA-S1 – A System One Model for Computer Use
Are we able to use CUA to build a system similar to Grok Bot?
Axsuul··on I built non-autoregressive decision models with RL a year ago
Can you give some examples of workloads?
Axsuul··on I tested 10 model/harness combinations on the same Three.js task
What do you use then?
Axsuul··on Apple introduces M6 and M5 Ultra
Can anyone recommend the perfect sweet spot for someone who wants to run their own inference?
Axsuul··on Apple introduces M6 and M5 Ultra
I had a chance to try Omarchy past few days and it's just very different vs macOS. I honestly never had a problem with the windowing system ever since I built my own customization scripts (i.e. Hammerspoon). I can see the appeal for someone who wants ultimate customization though but macOS still wins overwhelmingly when it comes to polish, ecosystem, user experience, and apps (nothing comes close).
Axsuul··on Launch HN: OneCLI (YC S26) – OSS sandboxed agent harness for teams
How does this compare to YC's qm?
Axsuul··on Babies born under sugar rationing grew into adults with lower cancer risk
That's because the body can become desensitized by sugar the more it gets. Poeple often turn to processed food more and more as their tastebuds become more accustomed to tastier foods while natural foods start tasting more bland. It's the same way dopamine works.
Axsuul··on Building an Advanced Agentic Harness
Do you have an example?
Axsuul··on Building an Advanced Agentic Harness
Anyone else have related reading that touches on this? I'm building my own custom harness and want to start implementing loop support, etc. But I also want to build some sort of framework so that it's dynamic (e.g. this needs to run x number of iterations, while planning needs to run y number of iterations).
Axsuul··on Odysseus – self-hosted AI workspace
Can anyone recommend something similar but cleaner and more polished?
Axsuul··on Why the US Navy won't blast the Iranians and 'open' Strait of Hormuz
Aircraft carriers are part of a strike group so the other ships would be responsible for defending it.
Axsuul··on Chrome DevTools MCP (2025)
Why even use Playwright for this? I feel like Claude just needs agent-browser and it can generate deterministic code from it.
Axsuul··on Obsidian Sync now has a headless client
Will this ever be able to work with a self hosted server?
Axsuul··on Launch HN: Onyx (YC W24) – Open-source chat UI
Is this sort of like self-hosted NotebookLM?
Axsuul··on California invests in battery energy storage, leaving rolling blackouts behind
A lot depends on long term planning but the planning better be right. In my opinion, the markets are much better than planning.
Axsuul··on Rivian CEO: 'blows my mind' to see US auto makers shifting back to ICE vehicles
There is definitely an inconvenience to it which affects the freedom to navigate. Americans don’t like their freedoms being taken away.
Axsuul··on RubyMine is now free for non-commercial use
That’s not a good indicator at all. Open source requirements are very different from business application.
Axsuul··on 'Europe must ban American Big Tech and create a European Silicon Valley'
The culture is very different in the US. You are viewed as American after you’ve been here awhile but the same cannot be said for other places.
Axsuul··on Third places and neighborhood entrepreneurship (2024)
Ktown in LA has a few
Axsuul··on Waymo rides cost more than Uber or Lyft and people are paying anyway
I've been seeing these drive around LA too (the Zeekr).
Axsuul··on GCP Outage
How do you know that?
Axsuul··on GCP Outage
Thanks
Axsuul··on GCP Outage
Does anyone know if instance-to-instance networking has been affected? My Redis instance has been throwing a lot of connection errors.
Axsuul··on Apple introduces a universal design across platforms
That could be fixed I feel by decreasing the background opacity.
