Commenting late, but just want to thank you for this. I've been using it for a bit now, replacing vterm for my setup. I'll be sure to submit feedback via github.

For similar reasons, I strongly prefer org-mode to markdown. I find that with org-mode and extensions (such as in-line elisp) I have a _significantly_ more powerful system. For exa…

I was thinking the same thing: why is everyone reinventing emacs? gnu and emacs already have a long history of cli and text friendly solutions that LLM dev agents can easily use an…

Agreed that picking the right size of work is critical. I didn't know about Kiro specs. I've been playing around with my own org-mode based approach with mixed success in keeping d…

Great write up. Love to see more of this topic on Hacker News! We've been building in this exact space since 2023, though we jumped directly into 3D with real-time multiplayer from…

Last year, my startup launched Retail Mage as our first answer to the question of if there was any point in introducing ML/GenAI into the real-time gameplay loop. I hope this to be…

When I look back at it, Dugin was right back in November: "So we have won. That is decisive. The world will be never ever like before. Globalists have lost their final combat. The …

Got it! I'll repost in a couple of weeks!

Hello! I'm Aaron, co-founder at Jam & Tea Studios. For the last year, we've been exploring if and how genai can create novel gameplay experiences. The first results of our experime…

Everything swatcoder suggested in his comment is good. I just want to add/emphasize: If you don't actively stay up with the tech, your understanding will atrophy. Consequently, bec…

Looks impressive. Like some others, I'm getting the bug that says "You are already connected" when I try to play. That said, this is still good work, especially considering your ex…

While I get that it's the AI product, the vulnerability here is the k8s configuration. It really has nothing to do with the AI product itself or AI training or anything related to …
