    First impression(s): 1/ it took me a while to understand this is a social network. I thought it was about giving me more visibility into my sessions/token usage 2/ Unless I am miss…

    The inherent problem with evaluating coding performance of models remains: most day-to-day coding tasks are open-ended/partially-spec'd, and as such there is huge uncertainty on ho…

    Ask HN: Help me find an old Atari 800/800XL program – "Tortoise and the Hare"

    I'm trying to track down a program I remember from the Atari 800 era (early-to-mid 1980s). I believe it was from a book — a fairly substantial one, at least 200 pages — that covere…

    It took me several reads to distill their post to this one sentence: "Enterprise Account contracts will no longer be offered to new customers" I'd be glad to stand corrected but AF…

    Wow that's a good piece. It propelled me into writing this: https://dev.to/itay-maman/the-elephant-in-the-room-systems-t... In short: the tension described in "systems thinking" is…

    My first reaction: wow, incredible. My second reaction: still incredible, but noting that a C compiler is one of the most rigorously specified pieces of software out there. The spe…

    Important: I didn't see opus 4.6 in claude code. I have native install (which is the recommended instllation). So, I re-run the installation command and, voila, I have it now (v 2.…

    agree on that and the speed is fantastic with them, and also that the dynamics of questioning the current session's assumptions has gotten way better. yet - given an existing codeb…

    Something that caught my eye from the announcement: > GPT‑5.3‑Codex is our first model that was instrumental in creating itself. The Codex team used early versions to debug its own…

    Impressive results, but I keep coming back to a question: are there modes of thinking that fundamentally require something other than what current LLM architectures do? Take critic…

    There's an interesting historical angle here: Church's lambda calculus actually predates Turing machines by a few months (both 1936), and they're provably equivalent in computation…

    The term "B2B SaaS" is doing a lot of heavy lifting here and I think conflates two different things: (1) Business model: hosted software you pay monthly for (vs self-hosted/one-tim…

    My policy as a CTO is to always prefer things which are capped, so I'd go with 50 hours/month.

    This looks really promising. I understand the rationale behind BYOS, but I think there's a segment of builders who'd prefer a managed service over provisioning/securing their own m…

    There's another angle here: in the LLM era, markdown files in a public repo actually are apps. When Google announced free turn-by-turn navigation in 2009, Garmin dropped 16% and To…

    This is brilliant. I'm pretty sure I'll use it when the need arises. One point: the pricing model wasn't immediately clear. I was a bit perplexed by "own this brand for $49" — I ge…

    I really like this direction - I think it certainly clicks with your audience and solves a real problem. One thing: my immediate gut reaction was "will they steal my idea?" On refl…
