Sorry for the off topic question. You've been on hn a long time + work at deepseek which seems pretty uncommon. Anything you think hn doesn't know about deepseek that it should? Or any non-obvious ways hn/yc has influenced deepseek (or the broader ecosystem)?
Sorry for the off topic question. Why is "being on hn a long time + working at deepseek" "seems pretty uncommon" to you?

#233"Every run is traceable Everything the model sees is recorded in an append-only session log: system prompts, reasoning, tool calls and results, subagent scheduling, and every context injection. In the Trajectory view, you can inspect these records by source. Resume, fork, search, and replay all operate on the same event stream."

Agreed that it is a killer feature. US models obfuscate the COT (to A. make it look better and B. combat distillation) but > and the raw trace is fairly hard to reason about > but I still think this kind of feature is a big step in the right direction.

Well, that makes one of us. Replacing deterministic processes that work with lossy processes makes no sense. You’re literally reinventing the wheel every single time, what are you talking about?
It's because things change, things break, they are misconfigured etc. Yes, if you have perfect deterministic tools in an unchanging and perfect environment, sure. But the deterministic tools need constant maintenance, fixing, reconfiguring, adapting to external changes, dealing with unexpected failure types etc. Not saying you should use LLMs for everything, but LLMs equipped with tool calling can often fix things. A…
ppl are not doing this right now . right?
if ai can really do this then we dont even need all this glue software . everyone can just use lovable.

#235Please somebody explain what is this good for. Is it a similar tool with Claude Code or Antigravity ?

Exactly. “Tell me more about X” is an open ended question, not feedback.
You're absolutely right — "tell me more about X" is phrased as an imperative, not a question. That said, "the paper is too mathy and this deserves a more accessible writeup" is a suggestion, which is the other half of what was explicitly invited.

#237As someone who's just getting into the self-hosted game on a M2 Pro MBP with muse-glimmer 30b, what's the difference between something like this and Cline?

That is precisely how the dreamcoder [0] ai agent I built also works. It has an event sourced architecture in SQLite and it resolves queries using recursive CTEs (and sneaky projections to speed things up) to deliver exactly that. Identical, stable message chains to AI and complete introspection. Bonus points include a constraint-satisfaction solver for the tiling window manager so windows never shrink too small to r…

why dont you mention that its your site instead of prenteding like something you discovered to swelljoe below. they stealth edited it after my comment. see other examples. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49289293 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49120753

How is that different from what Pi already does?
Pi can only log what the model shows it. Many models keep their thinking traces hidden and only provide a hash or something to recover it on subsequent resumes. DeepSeek shows CoT traces, and is maybe the best model that does so, I think? Kimi stopped providing CoT traces a little while ago in their subscription service via Kimi Code, I believe. I haven't checked GLM or Qwen 3.8 Max, though I guess if you're hosting…
