Seems like something a nazi would say

akktor··on Tell HN: Git hook to keep LLM signatures out of your commit history
It is free advertising because now everyone sees "Co-Authored by Claude-Code" everywhere in the commit history and I didn't ask for any of that.

I've been using OpenCode for most of my AI coding lately and it never co-authors commits. According to your reasoning, every person using OpenCode is lying?

akktor··on Tell HN: Git hook to keep LLM signatures out of your commit history
I just don't want LLMs to put stuff I didn't ask for in my commit history. It's equivalent to some kind of free advertising that nobody asked for, in your projects.

> and trying to hide it from someone?!

I think that nowadays, by default, you automatically assume that something has been written with the help of AI, so I don't think this is a valid point or concern.

akktor··on Ask HN: What cool skill or project interests you, but feels out of reach?
For me, it's gotta be Asahi Linux development. I've been following the work of Asahi Lina and the team for a long time, watching their progress in awe. It just seems incredibly cool to get macOS hardware running Linux so well. But every time I think about actually diving into it, my brain just screams "super complicated!" and I have no idea where I'd even begin to contribute or understand what's going on under the hood. It's definitely one of those things I admire from a distance because it feels so far beyond my current capabilities.

Hi Peter! Thank you for doing this.

I'm a software engineer with 3 years of experience and a MSc degree in computer science. I'm currently working in a big tech company in the UK and I would like to move to the US in the near future. At the moment I'm more leaning toward an L1 because I don't have to go through the lottery but I'm exploring other scenarios. Would you recommend trying to move to the US with an L1 or an H1B? Does an L1 provide a path to a GC? What are the cons of an L1 visa compared to an H1B?

Again, many thanks!
