Im not calling for any action, but that kid doing something about Healthcare CEO - that did help.
pojzon··on Show HN: Homebrew 6.0.0
Thank you fore homebrew. It makes macos usable.
pojzon··on macOS Container Machines
Im currently working on an article about this very topic. And its amazing how hard and multi-dimensional agent sandboxing. LLMs architecture is by design insecure. Working with something like this and making it secure to run in production is extremely interesting topic.
pojzon··on macOS Container Machines
OrbStack still uses a single big VM, Container Mashines each spawn its own MicroVM. Isolation level on Container Machines is better from that point of view.
pojzon··on AI outperforms law professors in Stanford Law study
To give you some example of what can happen if you use AI in legal battle you can look at Valve vs Rothchild case [1].

TL;DR Its never a good idea and it will bite you.

pojzon··on Please Do Not Vibe Fuck Up This Software
At least once a week we have a post on HN about CEOs having AI paychosis. Maybe there is something to it.
pojzon··on Why Do We Sleep Under Blankets, Even on the Hottest Nights? (2017)
Because monsters under the bed.. duh.

At least thats what I tell my kids.

pojzon··on The Companies Cutting Headcount for AI Will Lose to the Ones Who Didn't
I strongly believe sooner or later we will say any article was written by AI. How to trust someone it was not?

Does discimer “no tokens were used” mean anything ?

pojzon··on GitHub confirms breach of 3,800 repos via malicious VSCode extension
In AI era the way to install software is to pass a random script from internet to shell with sudo privileges.

Thats enough to see how much AI crowd cares about security.

pojzon··on An OpenAI model has disproved a central conjecture in discrete geometry
There is one issue with this. When noone can prove or disprove what AI came up with.

Currently we can live with it because someone can review that work. Soon we wont be able.

pojzon··on Who will buy your services if you fire us all?
Im surprised ppl still think the elite “needs” us for anything.

If work can be offloaded to machines and thinking to agents.. there is no need to keep this thing we call society.

Its way way cheaper and faster to build highly guarded enclaves to fance off from worse part of humans.

Ppl at the top dont even think about us as real humans. We are sub spieces to them.

Elyzium is more probable future for us. This or civil war and big reset. Depends who wins.

Claude Code has whole game engine built into it. God knows why.
pojzon··on I believe there are entire companies right now under AI psychosis
Im not afraid to say AI model trained on petabytes of data is better than me in many things.

Thankfully most of those things are a very small percent of my overall work.

If its a big percent of your work -> you are in trouble friend.

pojzon··on Bitcoin trader recovers wallet with help of Claude
I did that, wrote my own harness “Jarvis”, simple loop. Still results were terrible using the same model in comparison to for example OpenCode. So X Doubt.
pojzon··on Leaving GitHub for Forgejo
Its completely 100% legal, to ask LLM to write detailed spec of any closed source project based on the code. Then ask another LLM to implement it to make it public domain.

Its already proven based on previous specification laws.

Hilarious as it sounds its true. We can make “any” code a public domain woth LLMs.

pojzon··on Heat pump sales rise across Europe
> https://finance.yahoo.com/news/nobody-really-wants-electric-...

Second biggest car manufacturer in Europe says that noone here wants electric cars.

Like I said - ppl with homes and Solar Panel Stack will buy electric cars and for them its amazing deal - if subsidised - even better.

But for average Joe (95% of citizens) this is simply out of reach.

pojzon··on Cloudflare to cut about 20% of its workforce
That one guy must be really good at the job. Congratz.
pojzon··on Heat pump sales rise across Europe
You dont understand how supply and demand works.

Europe has energy deficit. When most ppl want to charge their cars (night) there is no solar power. We have no energy banks and all that power needed to supposedly charge tens of millions of cars would have to come from? Yes -> coal power plants, because our politicians decommissioned nuclear power plants. Lets tak about what is NOW and what can be in next 10 years.

In the coming 10 years vast majority of ppl still wont have passive homes with solar panels and energy banks to charge their cars, so they are 100% dependant on the grid.

Grid is old and not well maintained in majority of EU countries. It has finite transfer power.

Now we throw 500million cars on top of it. Its impossible mathematically and physically.

The moment number of electric cars starts growing, we will need more and more energy, this means more fuel for plants, more plants investitions, more grid investitions etc. It all costs money. So energy companies will bill you MORE and more. If not energy cost protections in countries like Poland or Italy, cost of energy would double next day.

Its all subsidised now, due to war, no fuel, Iran and many other reasons I already mentioned.

So overall its worth it ONLY due to subs and it can be worth it if we invest into our infrastructure for the next 30-50 years.

As it is now - its all just a hoax.

pojzon··on Red Squares – GitHub outages as contributions
Inference results for Copilot are also a lot better during weekends than workdays. Its my personal experience so take it with a grain of salt, but I work on personal projects only on weekends mostly due to that brain drain mon-fri of copilot.
pojzon··on Lessons for Agentic Coding: What should we do when code is cheap?
We can all agree that very big portion of the time needed during product engineering is.. syncing progress, requirements, plans, etc etc. And we have to do it over and over due to how big teams are.

Fast forward, fire half of those ppl, for sure fire all middle managers, scrum masters, coaches, wooden-architects.

Suddenly you save up so much time on syncing, you can ship twice as fast.

And NO, quality and impact doesnt go down. It actually goes up.

This is probably something you did not want to hear :)

Few competent ppl with AI are much much much better than dozens of medicore teams.

We need now „Product Builders” and „Product maintainers”. All of the other roles lost value.

pojzon··on Heat pump sales rise across Europe
Yup 0.6% in 2025 in Europe for sure makes a difference.

The moment subsidiary for EVs is removed, sales will plument like in US. And those will be removed as EU is going through energy and resources crisis.

EVs make sense only in China, where goverment has a working brain and invests heavly in nuclear power plants.

pojzon··on Heat pump sales rise across Europe
Interesting looking at how EV sales plumented.
pojzon··on Heat pump sales rise across Europe
We are 40 years in back when it comes to grid infrastructure investmets. Grid is not some magical thing that has infinite capacity and transfer speed and costs.

The reason why powerplants have to be strategically distributed around the country and have to consist of multiple different power geration sources.

Cyting Germany’s cancelor „Going full green was a strategic mistake”

Ps. Heat pump is as effective as the heat source it can use..

pojzon··on Heat pump sales rise across Europe
1) To make it really green and viable -> you „need” solar installation

2) To have solar installation you have to abaid to painfully stupid legistlation

3) In winter pump is as green as the diesel generator that produces energy for it to run

When there is a buyer, sellers will show up.

This only exposes human nature.

They want to see a change! In theirs account balance. Its still part of the world. Their world.
pojzon··on GitHub Copilot is moving to usage-based billing
Why keep stuff in US when offshore costs so much less?

Talent and skill is for sure not the reason, coz biggest names now seem to all be immigrants.

pojzon··on GitHub Copilot is moving to usage-based billing
The point is - if its the same or more expensive per month than a real human employee - why pay for AI ?

Human retain knowledge, product knowledge, can pick up more work often for the same money. And having many of them means your business wont go down if provider suddenly bumps API pricing.

pojzon··on GitHub Copilot is moving to usage-based billing
I did many 1h+ sessions of agent asking questions, delegating to subagents - all for 1 premium request.

I would say its a x1000 increase in price for agentic workflows.

pojzon··on Tell HN: I'm sick of AI everything
Fixing organisational issues is hard and expensive.

Slapping AI on everything is easy in comparison. And mentioning AI to investors makes them drop pants.
