How does this work? Do you have an agreement with Apple to connect to their iMessage service? If you do then kudos thats a real differentiator. However if you're hosting your own mac mini farm and running bluebubbles or other such thin

What was the terminal app though and what was special about it that Ghostty didn't already provide? edit: Found this one article (via google) that talks about the terminal. I guess it was a terminal that you could "prompt" t

I believe soon a day will come when the agents will chat with each other to get things done. Agents running on different machines, behind firewalls, on phones, laptops, servers etc will all want to chat with each other. So there is going to

I noticed that too and did roll my eyes as well but I'm glad I kept reading - its actually quite a good article. Maybe the author used an LLM to help do some copy editing but should have probably given it less editorial agency. Either

Interesting to note right at the start of the article that they sat on a plane next to each other in 1953 but the formal partnership between AA and IBM was not till 1959 - 6 years later! The article makes it look like all this happened magi

I don't understand why claude code (and all CLI apps) isn't written in Rust. I started building CLI agents in Go and then moved to Typescript and finally settled on Rust and it was amazing! I even made it into an open source runti

Love it! Bookmarked for the next time I need to sign a PDF and then will pony up the $$.

I signed up and gave the product a spin and its clear that its not some vibe coded weekend project. Clearly a lot of effort has gone into it and OP also was clear that they've spent 10 months on this.

This looks really nice! Congratulations on building something awesome, especially in a space that's "crowded" with the big players. I want to give kudos to two things: 1. It took you 10 months to build this. This is focused p

It’s an approach that works and I’ve thought of implementing the same thing but stopped short because I feel it just pushes the underlying problem around. Now I have to share my creds with a black box that I know very little about and it’s

It took me a minute to recognize this as satire (thank you HN comments). However it does actually make sense - maybe this could be a way for OSS devs to get paid. What if we did build a clean room as a service but the proceeds from that did

Oh I didnt know about this. Very cool. Is hcker.news only on web? Or is there a mobile app as well?

There should be a "flag as AI" link in addition to "flag" and then a setting for people to show flagged as AI. Once the flagged as AI reaches a certain threshold then it disappears unless you enable "Show AI".

I think the way its supposed to work is the agent (AI) will email the recipients saying "Bob is available Thursday at 8:00 AM or Tue at 9:00 AM" Then the recipients can reply to the email thread with "Thursday works". No

Age Verification is very hard to do without exposing personal information (ask me how I know). I feel it should be solved by a platform company - someone like Apple (assuming we trust apple with our personal information but seems like we al

I think item #2 in your list is the real kicker here. Given that AI can write code the threshold for "trivially replicable" is going down. Unless your thing has strong network effects or a large capex requirement (ex: GPU infra) i

This is not new. When I started my first company in 2012 it was bootstrapped and getting anyone to pay attention to what I was building was almost impossible. I had to pound the pavement and meet people in person at coffee shops and pitch t

Maybe there should be some sort of filter for certain high volume posts types - for example: Github repos. A Github Repo (or OSS) project must have a certain number of stars / forks / watchers whatever before it will appear on Sho

I actually did this (around 2006) after reading this article by Joel and I was skeptical but I used excel and wrote down all the tasks that needed to be done and kept breaking it down till each task was in hours. It took me a few hours to d

I was in the same boat as you. I tried Fastmail and they have a really great tool that just did it. I was skeptical but after I tried it was very pleased. Give it a shot.

I moved my custom domain from google workspace to fastmail a few years ago and didn't look back. Very happy with that decision. The only two downsides: 1. A few people have reported my emails from fastmail (calendar invites mostly) goi

I remember when I was at the CMU Robotics institute in the graduate program (Robotics / AI) in 2003 and Google came on campus and they wouldn't even consider anyone without a PhD - the campus recruiter advised me to apply when I h

Nothing special or too sophisticated. On the one hand I use Just (a command runner) to standardize specific build and test commands that call cargo with various flags. Here is a simple example from one of my repos: https://github

yes its rust. Looks like you're right. Well is back to good old emacs for me!

I've been using emacs for 30 years and have tried VS code several times but the muscle memory on Emacs has prevented me for switching. I've gotten LSP on emacs working well enough but the performance just isn't there. So toda
