    It’s just a personal preference, to be honest, so I wouldn’t overengineer it yet. In my case, I run it in a VM behind Tailscale. The main reason is that I want it to be able to ins…

    I prefer Paseo https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo , mainly because I have specific preferences for different harness + model combinations. For example, I like using ChatGPT models v…

    Durable workflows are different, not necessarily simpler, imo. Unless the team is already familiar with them, I wouldn’t introduce one just for this. You also have to account for t…

    Show HN: HN Hiring – Search and Filter Who Is Hiring

    https://hnhiring.azuanz.com I originally built this to scratch my own itch while job hunting. The main problem for me with the monthly Who Is Hiring thread was finding relevant job…

    Pretty interesting read. One thing I’m curious about is the DB size trade off. Going from a quantity in Redis to one row per reservable unit seems like it could create a lot more r…

    Both can be true. How often do we hear about hacks that ultimately came down to bad defaults or simple security mistakes? That doesn’t mean any script kiddie could have discovered …

    Never learned Emacs but am a Neovim user. But similar to what I said to my colleagues as well. Codex, Claude Code are VS Code, Jetbrain. Pi is Neovim.

    Thanks! I ended up built my own too. Just thought there are other better options out there that I might've missed.

    What tools are you using to run the comparison? Or are you just running the prompts and checking them with something like ccusage? I’m asking because I’ve been looking for agent ha…

    I'm currently using it to help me with my oncall, first responder to our any production alerts. It's not as efficient as coding agent by default, but it's been tremendously helpful…

    That explains why he built sessions into libghostty instead of Ghostty itself. Looking forward to it. I spend most of my time in the terminal and have been using tmux to manage my …

    Curious, what kinds of tasks do you do that require such a large context window? Anything specific?

    It is a valid concern but I've been running yolo mode since the inception, using Claude and now Codex. I'm not bragging or anything, since I'm feeding my own curiosity too, trying …

    The 2 days were spent uploading my entire library from scratch. After that, daily syncs only take a few minutes. I don’t think this should be framed as iOS vs Android. From a techn…

    No, it’s an Immich issue. Not OP, but I was already using Synology Photos. Synology finished syncing my library in two days, while Immich was still syncing after more than a week. …

    I'm using tmux + zoxide+ https://github.com/joshmedeski/sesh . Then on Ghostty, I have keybinds for my workflow. Cmd+k to open/switch workspace. Each workspace is just a new tmux s…

    I recently reviewed an app built mostly with vibe coding. The owner said it was almost ready to launch and just needed a quick check. After looking through it, the database design …

    I’ve built something similar internally, but under the hood it’s mostly codex exec + Git worktrees. The main advantage over diff-only review is that it can walk the entire codebase…

    It depends on what you’re comparing it against. For $20, OpenAI is still probably the best value for SOTA models. In terms of limits, you can use GPT-5.4 instead of 5.5. The intell…
