I love Borland product design, I always fall back to using their design language in my personal use tools[1].

1. You can see them in my recent submissions. Don't want to shill.

LG TVs have the best OLED displays and the most questionable privacy policy. So I picked best of both the worlds and left the TV off the internet. Apple TV is the way to go for me.

maybe I am old. has anyone else really tired to collaboratively chat with an agent like this? in my experience, people on my team tend to work more in isolation with agents. Ive never seen them collaborate ON the chat. they do collaborate on the PR...

Congrats on launch! Have you considered providing engineering consulting as a part of the package? We always started with an amazing CM here in the US and scaled manufacturing in China. We usually spent more with our US CM to go 0 -> 1 -> 500 than what we paid the Chinese manufacturer to go from 500 -> 100,000. He was an amazing guy with consultants sitting at every aspect of the process. We would not have succeeded without the us CM.

I always thought there was a business in making that consulting easy to find. Its usually a very hard thing to find good consultants.

so much politics on HN these days. edit: I mean politics related content

I saw this trending on github yesterday and tried it and liking it so far. What I like: - familiar tmux like key binding (configurable) interface - comes with all the tmux advantages like detach, ssh etc - mouse - nice sidebar

I prefer to manage my worktrees manually with a super simple script.

They sold at the top. My entire TEAM was weaned off cursor in the last year. New setup - 50% of them do (Codex Desktop, Claude Desktop) + Zed for IDE and the other 50% use (claude code + codex cli) on cmux -- a ghostty based terminal that adds some bells and whistles, literally for notifications when claude is done.

IMHO, the codex desktop app is very powerful for development + testing given it can easily control the computer.

This is wild. I nearly got banned from Robinhood for just running DCA using an unofficial python api. Crazy how times change.

ah well, you know, obsidian is a bit of a muscle memory now. I have tried to replace it many times with no success. I will try this one too.

"Just use autoresearch and it will fix your app's memory leaks in an hour" is what I was nonchalantly told by someone who has never written a line of code ever.

I guess what I relate to the most is how dismissive people get about real software engineering work.

I may have skill issues, but I am yet to reach the level of autonomous engineering people tend to expect out of AI these days.

Congrats to the Zed! I've been using zed since their first launch on HN. They did not even have a search + replace function at that time! I now use zed all_the_time.

What an awesome journey!

Yes, I pay for blacksmith rn. Thank You for your response though.

Thank You, great product. Do you have something for merge queues?

What is confusing to me, is as a business I would happily pay GitHub for many many features that I pay others for. Maybe MS thinks its just a billion here, billion there, but isn't it so easy to capture these?

1. faster more configureable action runtimes so I can get faster builds 2. usable merge queues because the github one is a joke 3. some reasonable CI management and workflow debugging features

Thank You. This is exactly why I read comments on HN before clicking on news. I am not looking for confirmation bias, I just trust people here more than the BBC.

No shade on these guys, looks like a cool tool and I'll try it. However, I find myself doing large majority of my git operations using a an agent[1] or a TUI [2], and I rarely open a git interface. I can get everything done straight from the terminal.

I guess I can overcome the "what if I cannot undo" anxiety.

haha, thats a good unsername.

Things that make an an OpenCode fanboy 1. OpenCode source code is even more awesome. I have learned so much from the way they have organized tools, agents, settings and prompts. 2. models.dev is an amazing free resource of LLM endpoints these guys have put together 3. OpenCode Zen almost always has a FREE coding model that you can use for all kinds of work. I recently used the free tier to organize and rename all my documents.

haha. btw, your cook is super cool! Congrats on the launch.

> File Explorer is one of the most used surfaces in Windows. Our first round of improvements will focus on a quicker launch experience, reduced flicker, smoother navigation and more reliable performance for everyday file tasks.

Really? it took "user feedback" for one of the world's best software companies to realize one of the most fundamental parts of the OS was broken?

I have been long on $MSFT for a while now, but my faith as an investor stands shook.

cook with two cooks ;)

I did a Show HN[0] a few days back with my CLI agent called cook[1] and for a moment I was ecstatic my tool made it to the front page. haha.

One of my buddies works in a company that makes very popular Text AI models. His words "Gemini's visual understanding AND output in best in class and we use it in production apps"

One thing I’ve noticed doing Show HNs recently:

People are flooded by new projects and assume (rightly) that most are low-signal, so they don’t engage. Because there’s low engagement, new projects get even less visibility. That reinforces the belief that nothing interesting can be built anymore.

I ship earlier now (often free and open source) to learn faster, but it doesn’t change the attention dynamics much.

The bottleneck isn’t building. it’s distribution and who already has an audience. Now dont get me started on getting an audience. thats a whole different pain.

I was an on-prem maxi (if thats a thing) for a long time. I've run clusters that costed more than $5M, but these days I am a changed man. I start with PaaS like Vercel and work my way down to on-prem depending on how important and cost conscious that workload is.

Pains I faced running BIG clusters on-prem.

1. Supply chain Management -- everything from power supplies all the way to GPUs and storage has to be procured, shipped, disassembled and installed. You need labor pool and dedicated management.

2. Inventory Management -- You also need to manage inventory on hand for parts that WILL fail. You can expect 20% of your cluster to have some degree of issues on an ongoing basis

3. Networking and security -- You are on your own defending your network or have to pay a ton of money to vendors to come in and help you. Even with the simplest of storage clusters, we've had to deal with pretty sophisticated attacks.

When I ran massive clusters, I had a large team dealing with these. Obviously, with PaaS, you dont need anyone.

Beautiful! I love the human feet always visible in the background! It helps me set perspective.

LetsEncrypt is on my end of year Donate list for the past 5 years. With all modern browsers requiring HTTPS everywhere, a world without Let's Encrypt would be really difficult for indie developers.

Thank You for an amazing product!

How so? Their brand new Siri _is_ available. I am using their Apple intelligence on my new iPhone. They even have half baked ChatGPT integrations everywhere. They got into lot of trouble last year for running ads for overselling what their new siri can do.

Overselling abilities is for sure a lack of quality.

The core of Apple's problem boils down to apathy towards their product quality. I just recently switched from using Siri to Google Gemini in my car. The experience is dramatically better.

And this is the case across the board.

My friend's Fitbit works way better than my Apple watch.

Third and final example is how bad Apple's native dictation engine is. I can run OpenAI Whisper models on my Mac and get dramatically better output.

As a long time Apple fan who's had everything since before the first iPhone, I feel this apathy towards product quality cannot be disguised as some strategic decision to fast follow with AI.

This is fantastic. Under MIT even! Thank You!
