For sure, and I think most people would agree with this. However, I also think most people treat it differently when it is someone so high up because they have a lot of control and…

Really cool to see work progressing on this! It would be awesome to one day be able to use Zig for serious shader work

Comment #48396091
Fair enough. I was referring to the GUI framework space in general, not specifically for Zig

Comment #48394915
At first I was very excited about this project. After reading the comments, I'm now deeply saddened by it... Given how much competition there already is in the GUI framework space,…

Very interesting write-up, thank you! I never really considered that compilers can also use asserts to improve performance, but it does make sense.

Comment #48319753
This seems like a very positive move to me. It makes it clear what Zig days are about so people know what to expect. There are 1000s of other events for people who want to build wi…

Comment #48305356
I'm very excited about the future of Zig! I really love the conservative and measured approach they are taking. Unlike many others these days, they appear to prioritise doing thing…

Thanks for sharing, it's very informative!

Yeah it seems pretty insane to use a vibe-coded storage engine unless you had no other option

Nice and clean, I like it!

This talk introduces Litterbox. If you're developing on Linux and you're looking for some protection from supply chain attacks and/or rogue coding agents, this might be the solutio…

Ah, I guess I should have seen this one coming :)

Comment #47611931
Oh wow, this looks nicely done! It's also nice that it's cross platform. I've done something similar with https://github.com/Gerharddc/litterbox which takes things a bit further by…

Comment #47005094
TL;DR: I'm using https://github.com/Gerharddc/litterbox to sandbox all my development these days and have now managed to get the ROCm variant of PyTorch running with GPU access ins…

> Every render in this post was made that way. Claude generated the geometry with vcad, imported each STL/GLB into Blender via MCP, set up studio lighting, and rendered to PNG. No …

Comment #46629600
Great writeup! An alternative I have explored (more for defense against supply-chain attacks than for agents admittedly) is to use rootless Podman to get a dev-container-like exper…

Comment #46613873
Unfortunately not since it is very much designed for Linux. I imagine it should work fine inside a Linux VM on Mac though.

Comment #46613861
The main reason is that in addition to sandboxing, I also wanted something similar to dev-containers where I can have a reproducible development environment. I guess that can also …

Comment #46613579
Very nice! Quite a coincidence, but the NPM disaster also prompted me to build litterbox.work as a possible solution. It is a very different approach though.

Comment #46613536
Very interesting read, I had no idea agents already had so much sandboxing built in! It does seem like this is probably not enough though. A few months ago I built https://github.c…

Comment #46600948
Fair enough, I guess Unix users could indeed get you a long way. I did not really even consider it. Apart from protecting user files, another goal I had with litterbox.work was to …

Very cool! I've recently built something similar at https://github.com/Gerharddc/litterbox ( https://litterbox.work/ ). Litterbox only works on Linux as it heavily relies on Podman…

Show HN: Litterbox – Defend Against Supply Chain Attacks
Are you worried about a supply chain attack (or even a rogue AI agent perhaps) compromising your entire development system? To minimise damage in such a scenario, I've built https:…
