Hey - small Aussie team here. It's 1am and we just open sourced ContextUI. It's a local-first desktop app for building and running visual AI workflows. TSX-based UI modules, full f…

Over the last year I keep seeing “SaaS is dead” takes. I don’t think that’s what’s happening. What seems under pressure isn’t SaaS as a model. It’s narrow SaaS built around a singl…

Serious question. Outside government or heavily regulated enterprise, what is Microsoft’s core value prop in 2026? It feels like a lot of adoption is inherited — contracts, complia…

Ubuntu. Its great. So much cleaner and userfrienly then Microsoft. Definitely don't need to be a dev to work in Ubuntu anymore. Honestly, I don't know how microsoft is holding its …

ai doesnt replace engineering. it compresses execution. abstraction always moves up. assembly to compilers to frameworks to cloud. same pattern. real risk isnt ai taking jobs. its …

cool idea and nice execution. highlights how far browser-native tools have come. curious how deep the DSP actually goes though — is this more a creative sketchpad or something you …

good breakdown of the tradeoffs but it kinda stops at critique. explains why age verification becomes invasive but doesnt really propose what a workable alternative looks like. fee…

i think everything is shifting, not dying. local-first tools make sense and new patterns/protocols will emerge from that. but convenience always wins, so web utilities won’t disapp…

actually respect this. feels like more solo builders are realising agents arent about intelligence, they’re about constraints — DSLs, deterministic layers, boring hybrid architectu…

AI can also be a massive democratiser. Lowering the barrier to building means more people can create accessible tools, not just large teams.

GPU simulation isn’t just speed, it changes what’s possible to design. Whoever iterates fastest wins, not whoever starts smartest.

Interesting benchmark, but worth noting the methodology: skills are generated before the task, with no feedback loop. In practice, useful skills tend to emerge from doing — you att…
