    With farming, you couldn't just start your own farm, because it requires farmland, and there's only so much of that. But those 6 software engineers can start their own companies, f…

    I recently started having my AI assistant help clean up my email gradually. (Using stumpy.ai for what it's worth.) The way I do it is every morning we go through recent emails in m…

    Agreed. People aren’t ready for this, even (maybe especially) on HN. Everyone’s hung up on how nobody really does waterfall. Or course. But a LOT of people are vibing their code an…

    > They don't know that the reason you price things the way you do is rooted in a competitive dynamic that never got written down anywhere. So maybe you should write it down? I see …

    Depending on what you mean by claw-like, stumpy.ai is close. But it’s more security focused. Starts with “what can we let it do safely” instead of giving something shell access and…

    More than 20x actually. According to ccusage I’ve consumed the equivalent of $4500 worth of API tokens in the last 30 days on my $200 subscription.

    For one thing they were just early. Whatever measurements people made of AI six months ago are invalid. It’s a different animal now. Plus you get a wildly different payoff the more…

    Author here. I've been a programmer for 25 years. Elixir, C, Ruby, PHP, Python, FoxPro. About a month ago I stopped writing code entirely and switched to designing through conversa…

    Along the same lines: I want the context window percentage visible at all times, not just when it drops below 10%. By that point it's too late to do anything useful. I can't even g…

    I'm building a platform of AI agents, and each agent can have its own email address. AgentMail handles that. You create an inbox via their REST API and they POST to your webhook wh…

    But, is that different from how we already work with humans? Typically we don't let people commit whatever code they want just because they're human. It's more than just code revie…
