    How does this work? Do you have an agreement with Apple to connect to their iMessage service? If you do then kudos thats a real differentiator. However if you're hosting your own m…

    What was the terminal app though and what was special about it that Ghostty didn't already provide? edit: Found this one article (via google) that talks about the terminal. I guess…

    I believe soon a day will come when the agents will chat with each other to get things done. Agents running on different machines, behind firewalls, on phones, laptops, servers etc…

    I noticed that too and did roll my eyes as well but I'm glad I kept reading - its actually quite a good article. Maybe the author used an LLM to help do some copy editing but shoul…

    Interesting to note right at the start of the article that they sat on a plane next to each other in 1953 but the formal partnership between AA and IBM was not till 1959 - 6 years …

    I don't understand why claude code (and all CLI apps) isn't written in Rust. I started building CLI agents in Go and then moved to Typescript and finally settled on Rust and it was…

    Love it! Bookmarked for the next time I need to sign a PDF and then will pony up the $$.

    I signed up and gave the product a spin and its clear that its not some vibe coded weekend project. Clearly a lot of effort has gone into it and OP also was clear that they've spen…

    This looks really nice! Congratulations on building something awesome, especially in a space that's "crowded" with the big players. I want to give kudos to two things: 1. It took y…

    It’s an approach that works and I’ve thought of implementing the same thing but stopped short because I feel it just pushes the underlying problem around. Now I have to share my cr…

    It took me a minute to recognize this as satire (thank you HN comments). However it does actually make sense - maybe this could be a way for OSS devs to get paid. What if we did bu…

    Oh I didnt know about this. Very cool. Is hcker.news only on web? Or is there a mobile app as well?

    There should be a "flag as AI" link in addition to "flag" and then a setting for people to show flagged as AI. Once the flagged as AI reaches a certain threshold then it disappears…

    I think the way its supposed to work is the agent (AI) will email the recipients saying "Bob is available Thursday at 8:00 AM or Tue at 9:00 AM" Then the recipients can reply to th…

    Age Verification is very hard to do without exposing personal information (ask me how I know). I feel it should be solved by a platform company - someone like Apple (assuming we tr…

    I think item #2 in your list is the real kicker here. Given that AI can write code the threshold for "trivially replicable" is going down. Unless your thing has strong network effe…

    This is not new. When I started my first company in 2012 it was bootstrapped and getting anyone to pay attention to what I was building was almost impossible. I had to pound the pa…

    Maybe there should be some sort of filter for certain high volume posts types - for example: Github repos. A Github Repo (or OSS) project must have a certain number of stars / fork…

    Show HN: Timebound AWS IAM Permissions for Claude Code

    I was in the same boat as you. I tried Fastmail and they have a really great tool that just did it. I was skeptical but after I tried it was very pleased. Give it a shot.

    I moved my custom domain from google workspace to fastmail a few years ago and didn't look back. Very happy with that decision. The only two downsides: 1. A few people have reporte…

    I remember when I was at the CMU Robotics institute in the graduate program (Robotics / AI) in 2003 and Google came on campus and they wouldn't even consider anyone without a PhD -…
