MarcelOlsz··on Ask HN: Ergo wireless keyboard with mouse for coding?
Glove 80 looks great which I may as well get since it's $100 more. Although the glove60 has the mouse. Ah I wish there was a hybrid of the two!
MarcelOlsz··on Ask HN: Ergo wireless keyboard with mouse for coding?
Wow I really like that one along with the price too. That definitely ticks my boxes lol. I don't love the 4 keys in the bottom left (I'm on mac) and the large keys though but the layout is great,
MarcelOlsz··on Agent orchestration for the timid
>so it uses the native safari renderer.

Brutal. I had to renice it and do some shenanigans to make it work crispy but now it's decent. Has a lot of hang ups like if you leave a text input focused for too long the fans on your laptop will start.

MarcelOlsz··on 430k-year-old well-preserved wooden tools are the oldest ever found
The worst part of reading this thread is I know I won't be able to google image anything interesting related to "non-human hominids" :( Your comment was oddly depressing lol. Real "are we the baddies?" moment this morning.
MarcelOlsz··on I added a Bluesky comment section to my blog
Ah awesome thanks. I've been using Netlify to do the same. CF scares me lol.
MarcelOlsz··on Agent orchestration for the timid
Worth looking into Conductor.build and Sculptor as well, though I believe both are electron and run like sh*t but Conductor is quite good. Going to give this Vibe Kanban a go, thanks.

Orchestration is cool but a sane orchestration setup with VM's is where it's at.

I've been working on orchestration for the past little while and I've got a very tight loop going where everything is in worktrees and containerized, all services are isolated, so I can easily work on db schema/migration stuff while a few other agents do frontend work etc. Getting Conductor to play nice with vm's was very tricky as their docs say they have no intention of implementing vm's and wrote a "trust me bro, it won't erase your system" blurb about it in their docs [0]

>Everything, including hosting and workers, costs me zero.

Your setup sounds cool. Do you host it on a home lab or something?

What?
MarcelOlsz··on Show HN: What if your menu bar was a keyboard-controlled command center?
Love the 9 euros for a lifetime sub. Easiest purchase ever even if I don't use it. Looks great.
MarcelOlsz··on Ask HN: Share your personal website
https://olsz.me had some fun with this one :)
MarcelOlsz··on How have prices changed in a year? NPR checked 114 items at Walmart
Yes those people are rubes. "the dream of being able to have capital though", we're agreeing here. That is a pathetic dream. To have & to subjugate.
MarcelOlsz··on How have prices changed in a year? NPR checked 114 items at Walmart
I love when people with 0 capital think they are capitalists. The greatest con pulled on the working class.
MarcelOlsz··on Scott Adams has died
Nice to read such a graceful comment, I saved it.
MarcelOlsz··on AI generated music barred from Bandcamp
There's also Orpheus.network which is fantastic, gazelle based as well.

This is like saying your goal in life is to help people but somehow you ended up 50 rungs from the top and landed on becoming a cop.
MarcelOlsz··on Pebble Round 2
Dude you are an inspiration. So amped on the Pebble 01 I sent a multi-paragraph screed to your team lol.
MarcelOlsz··on Pebble Round 2
Why is it way better? I like the 2 Duo and I'm sad it's sold out. Would happily buy it off you if you'd like to email me.

MarcelOlsz··on Resistance training load does not determine hypertrophy
This is why having a buddy/spotter is so important. On every lift my friend spotted me an extra 3-4 reps that I would not be able to do if I went just myself and kept going until the last rep was 95% him and 5% me. First guy to automate spotting is an instant billionaire.

They had 600 million employees!?
MarcelOlsz··on Warren Buffett steps down as Berkshire Hathaway CEO after six decades
Yeah let's give the billionaires the same benefit of the doubt we give our friends & family & working-class people.
MarcelOlsz··on ManusAI Joins Meta
You son of a bitch. I'm in.
MarcelOlsz··on Karpathy on Programming: “I've never felt this much behind”
I understood perfectly what he's saying, but then again schizo is a language I speak fluently. Are you having a stroke?
MarcelOlsz··on Ask HN: What did you read in 2025?
Something Happened is easily heller's best book and it's so slept on. I've never met anyone who read it.
MarcelOlsz··on I sell onions on the Internet (2019)
Like domain cost per year / day, and accumulating it daily?
MarcelOlsz··on I sell onions on the Internet (2019)
Yes I love this. I've been messing with building a 3d renderer in c++ compiled to wasm rendered to a canvas with webgpu, and then playing with the [0] Bobba source code, combined with something like SpacetimeDB would be sweet. Would be really valuable to collect common financial issues and situations from people and work with someone who knows finance deeply to figure out how to express these challenges in a way that don't seem too open-ended.

Maybe it can be like that vim tutor game where you save him by encountering different financial scenarios that you have to solve and overcome.

Good idea, thank you.
