    It depends on what you are looking to get out of the next platform. For me, I'm not interested in the social aspect of coding anymore, so I have a Synology NAS running a git server…

    What coding harness are you using? What are some example workflows you have used either for? Have you used them only for new/simple projects or for more complicated refactoring or …

    Thank you for the honest answer. Yes, this is the conclusion I've come to as well. I don't want to continue supporting OpenAI nor Anthropic, but the other models don't seem to be a…

    Slightly off topic, but question for folks. I'm hoping to replace coding with Claude Sonnet 4.5 with a model with an open source or open weights model. Are any of the models on Oll…

    That makes sense. I think I tried using it maybe 4 years ago or so, and I had the same feeling. It just felt.. awkward to use, lots of friction. I was hoping it had changed by now,…

    Ah that's disappointing. So you've just been with 1Password then? Did you try KeePass or anything else?

    It's been little things and mainly usability/polish things. Sometimes the vault doesn't unlock and I have to enter in my password 2-3 times. It doesn't always capture all informati…

    Yeah, pretty disappointed by this as well. The app has been getting buggier overtime and I was already considering leaving, so this was the push I needed. Seems like the most popul…

    Thanks for making this. Is the code for this available somewhere public?

    What AI stuff are you referring to? I just learned about this project from this blog post, so I don't have the full context on their AI work.

    This looks interesting. Instead of having to code this up using typescript, is there an MCP server or API endpoint I can use? Basically, I want to connect an MCP server to an agent…

    I've been unemployed for about 1 year now. I was in SF working in tech for about 7 years, and decided I don't want to do that anymore, so I quit. It's been tough. The hardest part …

    So, it looks like this might work with fly.io? fly.io provides a way to connect to their servers via wireguard ( https://fly.io/docs/blueprints/connect-private-network-wireg... ), …

    Hi, thanks for sharing. My main concern with these browser agents are how are they handling prompt injection. This blog post on Perplexity's Comet browser comes to mind: https://br…

    I'm using linkding: https://linkding.link/ . It works great. It has a minimal set of features and can be self-hosted. I'm paying pikapods to host it for me, but if I needed to, I c…

    Sure, but to clarify, so you are probably setting temperature to close to 0 in order to try to get as consistent output as possible based on the input? Have you made any changes to…

    @simonw, how much have you used Claude code? I'm wondering if it makes sense to use Claude code as the main driver, but have crafted specialized "llm" based tools for Claude to use…

    But unlike every other company, this company has your most sensitive tax information. For some that's fine, but others might not like that.
