If there is one company that I'd never ever use for running a personal agent, that would be Meta. But they have the advantage of a large user base who still uses the platform heavily and a working personal agent is a huge pull for most

The focus on tools like these is always on how you create. Which IMO is the trivial part. Folks will say you can use Claude to write the code. Claude can also write the definitions needed for tools like this. The big difference is always in

I fail to understand the need to do this, isn't it obvious from the history that Apple will find out and will go after this? Why take this risk? I feel its better to start from scratch & redo things so that you get two things 1. a

This is probably the first real thing that is affecting me personally with this whole AI business. Having to pay more for device upgrades going forward. I hope the demand settles or new memory production offsets the demand.

Just crossed the second year building out Unmeshed - Orchestration Platform. This is basically a rewrite of Netflix Conductor which was the original platform we built while working at Netflix. At Netflix, infra was "free" so we we

Is Anthropic rushing to an IPO because investors also fear it’s the peak? I guess it can grow even after the IPO but is there a fear that the spending will rationalize and hurt the valuations? I know AI companies make money, but the compani

They both hired some good publicists who is advising that change your tone and messaging to get the public to like and trust the companies. Initially the goal was to convince investors which is pretty much done and now its the retail/p

Looking back it feels like GOOG, FB, TSLA etc. all went IPO at reasonable valuations. Retail & public investors did benefit long term and continuing to get higher valuations in public is not a small feat compared to a VC valuation. A tr

We work on disk log based architecture for workflows at Unmeshed ( https://unmeshed.io/ ) which helps it to scale at a fraction of the cost of traditional workflow systems that are based on expensive databases. Postgres is no

I suppose one way is that the Lawyers and Legal Assistants use Legal AI as a replacement for standard search. Instead of parsing content and creating new notes, let AI search and create but humans spend the same amount time instead for veri

This is quite amazing. I remember being on the original friendster way back in the day. They had so much potential. And there was also orkut.com that was even better because of the simpler UX. Then came Facebook and you all know the rest.

This is true. Speaking only based on personal experience. My team had started treating AI like a super intelligent being. “AI suggested we do it that way” And we’ve been degrading our systems rapidly for last several weeks. We’ve decided to

Really hard to look at these images given how not human like the humans are. A few are ok, but a lot are disfigured or missing parts and its hard to find a raccoon in here.

Buying stars explicitly is one mechanism. Another one is running Hackathons in India or lower cost countries with a prize, which is qualified by "Starring" said repo. Easily 1-3k stars per hackathon from student or hackathon parti

"hundreds of calls per week" because the mechanic is under the hood every day seems a little off. Hundreds seems way too excessive. Perhaps an exaggeration to highlight the problem's seriousness? With that kind of volume, I t

This was such as interesting read, but I found this link via LinkedIn rather than hackernews. I would have expected this to be somewhere at the top right now given how deep the article digs and evidence seems legit.

I pay $20 for OpenAI and codex makes me incredibly productive. With very careful prompts aimed at tiny tasks, I can review, fix and get a lot of things done. I’ll happily pay up to $2k/month for it if I was left with no choice, but I d

HubSpot CTO was very vocal about how AI is changing everything and how he is supporting by offering the domain chat.com to OpenAI etc. I say was because it has toned down quite a bit. I always thought HubSpot will transform into a true AI C

Code is probably just 20% effort. There is so much more after that. Like manage the infra around it and the reliability when it scales, and even things like managing SPAM and preventing abuse. And the effort required to market it and make i

Nice we haven’t faced this cold start problem. We like the idea of Lambdas being offered in a simple runtime platform where you can store and run the code as needed. And chain it with other stuff as well which is where workflow engines like

For the sake of argument 20x means you have basically suddenly got access to 19 people with the same skill set as you. You can build a new product company with 20 people. Probably in the same domain as you are in right now.
