shadag··on Ask HN: Any AI native Anki alternatives?
Yes exactly.
shadag··on [dead]
Inspired by OpenRouter's model fusion feature. There is a panel of models running in parallel and a judge to fuse the results.

I'm using it for my own deep research using tool calls. It's currently slower and more expensive for head-to-head prompts compared to OpenRouter's version, but with more work, it can be very similar.

Already, the responses I get are enhanced. Would love to hear what you think.

shadag··on Ask HN: Why is there no US open weights models?
Sure, Gemma 4 is good, but the Chinese are leading the way. Why? What is it about their incentives that led to this strategic decision? Even Mistral in Europe is more dedicated to open weights than any US lab.

Canada for sure... and you're right Elon wins.
shadag··on America's Most Successful Immigrants
I'm surprised there is not more Canadians and Brits on the list.

shadag··on Ask HN: Is every company's internal wiki just broken by default?
that's insane though. On a team scale this can somehow be managed by company has like 5,000 engineers on the main Teams channel. Surely there is a better way
shadag··on Ask HN: Is every company's internal wiki just broken by default?
You're so right it's not about the tool it's about the culture and focus on excellence which translates to writing excellent internal docs for engineers to get things done. I'm not quite sure how recording everything would work. The real things we need are docs that are updated when there are issues with CI/CD after people read logs etc... recording things might work for more business or commercial teams but for us we just need people to keep everything up to date and well written.
shadag··on Ask HN: Is every company's internal wiki just broken by default?
Yeah PCI DSS makes it virtually impossible. My company would take five years to adopt that
shadag··on Ask HN: Is every company's internal wiki just broken by default?
I totally agree with you. The solution mentioned above is useful but in my current company there is no way that can actually work long term for an individual engineer or my team.
shadag··on Ask HN: Is every company's internal wiki just broken by default?
That's an awesome solution - I'm going try that! Do people have other ways of doing that?
shadag··on Are Small Teams the Future?
We are entering an era in which companies can be scaled by very small teams of A* players. It marks a clear shift from companies operating as 'brigades' to becoming elite units. What do you think? And how will this affect the future of venture capital?
