No it's not related, sadly Byuu passed away several years ago.

Sadly, the AI writing is so terribly distracting. So the long and short of it seems to be an advertisement for the site itself? I think this should've been a show HN as your affili…

Looks like they merged it back in, but it's a shame it was taken out in the first place.

I don't fully get the negativity here. This seems like a middle ground between quick'n'dirty bash script and a well-crafted Ansible playbook. Half the time if you want to do someth…

Looks similar to sem/weave https://github.com/ataraxy-labs/sem https://github.com/ataraxy-labs/weave Though, despite the claims, I am not sure if these are ready for prime-time yet…

PMs can now also ship their half-baked requirements documents even faster thanks to the help of AI.

I noted something similar a few weeks ago. Companies are finally putting APIs in front of things that should have had APIs for years!

Pretty sure I saw this one a couple of weeks back, or something very similar to it.. https://github.com/philschmid/mcp-cli Edit: Turns out was https://github.com/steipete/mcporter …

I believe you're thinking of JScript, they're not quite the same thing.

FWIW I think most users here would prefer you reply to their hand-written comments using your own words, even if you had to use a translator.

> "The key insight is..." This was either written by Claude or someone who uses Claude too much. I wish they could be upfront about it.

I can't help but feel there is a funny pattern going on. A lot of companies want to embrace AI, agents, etc. so they make their platforms easier to use by AI, implementing whatever…

TIL there's a batch API.. This seems like something a lot of AFK coders should be using. The pattern for those users is typically they would set some kind of token budget, but thei…

I tried teams, good way to burn all your tokens in a matter of minutes. It seems that the Claude Code team has not properly taught Claude how to use teams effectively. One of the b…

Hasn't Michael Burry been talking about this exact thing for at least 6 years now? Edit: The Big Short’s Michael Burry Explains Why Index Funds Are Like Subprime CDOs (2019) https:…

> I've thought about building the same thing, by using beads... Glad someone in the hivemind did it. Gas Town is from the creator of beads.

Sidenote from the article, but TIL Mark Atwood is no longer at Amazon.

> What’s old is new again Let's go back even further.. I get strong nForce vibes from that extract!

Carmack's comments and the comments in the thread entirely surprise me. 256kbit/s was pretty much the standard ADSL speed 20 years ago. I remember thinking it was lucky some of my …

On the idea of replacing ones self with a shell script, I think there's nothing stopping people (and it should probably be encouraged) with replacing ones use of an LLM with an LLM…

There is at least some awareness already when it comes to the performance of the regex engine: https://github.com/openai/tiktoken/blob/main/src/lib.rs#L95-...
