dmmalam··on Launch HN: machine0 (YC S26) – Persistent CPU and GPU VMs from the CLI
What's the roadmap? Any plans for swarm specific tooling, or an backend marketplace (eg aws, hetzner etc).

Looks cool. Can I run on other clouds.
dmmalam··on Show HN: Director – Local first, open source MCP Gateway
Any upcoming features/ ideas on tool selection. Maybe use sampling?
dmmalam··on Show HN: Director – Local first, open source MCP Gateway
Looks super useful, will deploy. I've found context window management the killer limiter / skill in enabling many agents flows. Difference between it being magic, and not working. Looking forward to any solutions here.

dmmalam··on How I'm fixing the 401(k)
OctaveWealth [1] YCS12 is also a full stack flat fee 401k. We provide a very flexible investment menu, with our own Octave Target Risk ETF Portfolios, in addition to Vanguard Mutuals, and fully custom. The Octave portfolios are built inhouse using best of breed Exchange Traded Funds from multiple providers.

dmmalam··on Show HN: OctaveWealth – Smart, flat-fee 401k
re investments, we can include several fund families, including Vanguard and DFA. However most customers prefer our Octave portfolios which are built using best of breed funds from multiple providers, using a sophisticated optimization process.

re craziness, our team already has tons of experience managing billions of dollars at scale. I wrote a large part of the portfolio management system that manages BlackRock's iShares, and my cofounder was responsible for trading $6B/day of flow for large pension funds.

dmmalam··on Show HN: OctaveWealth – Smart, flat-fee 401k
Founder here, happy to take any qs. We started this because we were sick of percent based fees eroding our investment growth. We also wanted access to more sophisticated investment options which until now have not been available via high end personal wealth managers.
dmmalam··on Show HN: LogDNA – Easy logging in the cloud
I'd love to have all logs stored from day 1 (ie unlimited retention). Makes looking for bugs a million times easier, when you don't need to open up archived logs from S3.

Might be an interesting technical challenge to the keep search fast with 100gbs of logs.

dmmalam··on Migrating bajillions of database records at Stripe
Did you consider using views/triggers on the database to migrate to the new API? [1]. Would still have to change all models, though static typing would make this much easier/safer.

dmmalam··on PostgreSQL Migration Tool
I've found sqitch to be a little heavy. It's basically recreating parts of git as tables. Would love to see a lightweight postgres tool that can keep track of a dag of migrations.

Would love to see a blog post detailing this.
dmmalam··on Sqitch - Sane database change management
Currently using pg-migrator [1]. Seems to have the right balance between power and simplicity. Though numbered migrations can be a little annoying to manage cross team.
