    An "agent orchestrator" (or whatever you want to call it) that supports any cli agent. Trying to optimize for reducing cognitive load for working on different tasks at the same tim…

    You are talking as if oil and gas delayed the future, which I dont think makes sense at all. I think we are underestimating all the derivatives we use from oil and gas here. I thin…

    Yeah, my point was that it would have been even worse without oil and gas. solar, wind and semiconductors all require a very advanced petrochemical supply chain. You simply couldn'…

    I dont think this makes sense, given how insanely much more polluting coal is. You have to burn massive amounts of coal to power the liquid refinery, 50% of the energy lost essenti…

    Man, come on.. There are even at least two comments from people in this thread arguing this exact point. Ill promise you its frequency is even higher in the real world than on HN. …

    The Industrial Revolution started in 1760-1800 and was driven by coal, completely replacing wood as the primary industrial fuel. We almost exterminated whales and deforested the en…

    How would we do the whole industrial revolution thing on whale oil and lumber? Whales would most certainly be extinct by now, thats for sure. 100 years later is an immense amount o…

    I think a lot of people actually dont realize the value it gives humanity. Lots of people think we would have been better of in an alternate universe where we never discovered oil …

    I think Europe happily buys from the Gulf currently, and reluctantly buys from Russia if they have to. Its more about being self sufficient. This is something that can easily be we…

    How much extra investment to you think green tech companies get for pension funds excluding investment in this sector? They also only invest in publicly listed companies, not green…

    I think the right way to go about this is to tax consumption. The most efficient one would just be a co2 tax, to not favoritize some emission over others. This is mostly fine in we…

    The second most expensive source of energy is misleading in terms of whole picture. They are using a theoretical cost per kwh generated. You have to account for the much higher inf…

    Slavery is evil. Fossil fuels is actually still a net good for humanity. E.g. the consequences of removing access to these energy sources, would be overwhelmingly more negative for…

    The fossil fuel part doesn't seem like a rational decision to me. Why are we pretending that fossil fuels dont provide an immense amount of value for humanity, and that its horribl…

    Which countries do this for a good reason? I dont think there is a single western country that does this.

    You can open a directory also as a workspace, it just wont have git stats and git shortcuts.

    I have tried to provide after best ability, but have only been testing them on vm's on my mac! So be aware. I labeled them Beta due to this. But most features should work fine, pro…

    The underlying git worktree still lives on your disk until you delete it. So its not harder than starting a terminal with claude --continue, or codex resume --last inside the git w…

    The main difference is that Baton is agent-agnostic and terminal-native. It doesn't add a GUI on top of Claude Code or Codex, it builds around the terminal itself, so you run whate…

    Hi, I built this because running multiple Claude Code agents across multiple IDE and terminal windows was getting messy. Like many, I went from working at one thing at the time, to…
