I'm curious what a "stripped down version" of Github can offer in terms of functionality that Github does not? Is it not simpler to have the agents register as Github repos since t…

The key idea is not running constantly, but being always on, and being able to react to external events, not just your chat input. So you can set a claw up to do something every ti…

I'm curious how the unit economics actually play out here compared to traditional search. With Google, the compute cost to serve a query is negligible, so even low-CPM ads are prof…

This man is a legend. He's been working on making a better marble machine for more than a decade. The only payoff is the satisfaction of listening to the synchronized syncopation o…

Happy thanksgiving all. In an era where algorithms on other platforms seem optimized for outrage and engagement bait, I'm grateful for HN's optimization for curiosity. It's one of …
