Not related, but, I can't seem to get my copilot-cli (office is an MS shop) use qwen3.5:27b on ollama for some odd reason. After the recent changes to usage, I've spent an annoying…

I'd be interested in the RCA and the fix; and what the human:ai involvement is in both stages.

This has become a very common occurrence; might be the only sustainable path forward for projects and maintainers. Win-win for all parties involved.

My comment was more centered around the UX of UPI. But to address your point, there is a separate app for tourists called UPI One World, works as a digital wallet and the UX is sim…

If they can make it as seamless as UPI, that would be incredible. UPI, imo, is the pinnacle of ease of internet payments - as seamless and quick as it can get.

Idk, just feels so counter sometimes to build and refine these (seemingly non-deterministic) tools to build deterministic workflows & get the most productivity out of them.

This is doing more to keep me away from "vibe coding" than anything else. Look, I'm genuinely interested in using AI as a tool and trying to boost my productivity in any way possib…

Crazy that interruption also seems to work pretty smoothly

This looks too good to be true? What's the catch? Also, wasn't expecting the perf to improve by 2x

I don't know if there is an _absolute_ definition to good Engineering Culture but IMO the following points may hint towards a company that is doing things right, - You feel your wo…

Happy New Year everyone! HN has been very insightful and although I don't post often, just lurking and reading the articles/comments makes me realise how shit I am And although I'm…

What is the test?

> 1. Have you ever been laid off from a job for reasons that were not related to your performance? Yes. Only once, and it happened in March as a part of a cost cutting exercise. I …

Is it just me or does the site perform horribly? PS: have h/w acceleration disabled.

There's also MojoLang[0] that brands itself as a alternative to Python, and Google will look to release Carbon soon as well. It'll be interesting to see how these two grow. There's…

Yeah, figured that out in thanks to another thread on here. I got confused as all the examples were primarily sql ones.
