I work for Microsoft/Azure and my incentives are (roughly in descending order): minimize large/long outages, ship lots of stuff (with some concern for customer utility, but not too much), don't get yelled at for missing mandated work (security, compliance, etc.) I'd love to improve product quality, but incentives for that are negative. We're running a tight ship, and every moment I spend on quality is a moment I don't spend on the priorities above. Since there isn't any slack in the system, that means my performance assessment will drop, which I obviously don't want. Multiply that by 200k employees, and you get the current state of quality across the whole product portfolio.

I used to use Claude Code with Opus exclusively because of how good it is IME. Then Anthropic banned me so I switched to OpenCode. I really want OpenCode to win, but there is long way for it to get the same polish in the UX department (and to get a handle on the memory leaks). I am 100 % sure Claude Code is hacks upon hacks internally, but on the surface, it works quite well (not that they have fixed the flashing issue). With OpenCode I also switched to GPT-5.2-Codex and I have to say it's fairly garbage IME. I can't get it to keep working, it takes every opportunity to either tell me what I should do next for it or just tell me it figured a particular piece of the larger puzzle out and that if I want it can continue. It is not nearly as independent as Opus it. Now I'm on the Codex CLI with GPT-5.2 as I figured maybe the harness is the issue, but it is not very good either.

> you either have to decrease the time between catching a ball and throwing it again or increase the time a ball is in the air

I think you might be thinking of 5 ball juggling.

4 ball juggling (or at least it's most common variant, "The Fountain" [0]) is fascinating because it's really juggling two balls in each hand in a way that makes it appear similar to the standard cascade. Though this may sound "less hard" than what people initially imagine, it's a very different feeling than all the basics you learn using only 3 balls.

No it wasn't. A hardware defect so disastrous that it affects floating point computation on the neural engine, yet so minor that it does not affect any of the software on the device utilizing that hardware is exceedingly improbable.

The conclusion, that it was not the fault of the developer was correct, but assuming anything other than a problem at some point in the software stack is unreasonable.

Been pitching that with my FOSS colleagues and peers for years, now. A license for individual and educational use, but pay-to-play for anyone tangentially making revenue from its use. Then the conversation boils down to the business engineering of how much should something cost, with some arguing for flat yearly rates, and others arguing for cost-per-unit, while others still fret about "disrupting" the status quo immediately after acknowledging its untenability.

It's...frustrating, but those who do the work are the most qualified to explain what they need. For the rest of us, it's encouraging them to seek reasonable compensation for their work from those who exploit it for profit, and that doing so doesn't necessarily go against the spirit of open source.

Is it certain that this is the reason?

rsync's man page says "pipelining of file transfers to minimize latency costs" and https://rsync.samba.org/how-rsync-works.html says "Rsync is heavily pipelined".

If pipelining is really in rsync, there should be no "dead time between transfers".

There's a reason that one of the big corporate skills books is Strength Finder - because fundamentally playing to your weaknesses isn't a good play, its that you need to consistently challenge yourself to keep building whatever muscle you choose to do. You don't want to build strength by lifting 10,000 pounds all at once, but by increasing your load every day.

In most professions barely anyone is doing the continual education or paying attention to the "scene" for that profession, if you do that alone you're probably already in the top 10%.
Show HN: Executive – A real-time dashboard for orchestrating many Claude Codes
by ncr5012 | 2026-02-02 17:57:32+00:00
I built this as an internal tool for my company and wasn't planning to open-source it. But I saw a post from Boris (who built Claude Code) describing his workflow, and two things jumped out: he runs multiple Claude Code sessions in parallel, and he spends extensive time discussing and planning with Claude before letting it touch any code — then lets it run. That's exactly how I work, so I figured maybe this tool is useful to someone else.
The core idea: when you're running 3-5 Claude Code sessions across dev, prod, and local machines, your human brain can't track what's happening where. You kick off a task, get distracted, come back, and end up context-switching to whatever Claude finished first rather than what's highest priority. Executive gives you a single dashboard showing every session, its status, its priority, and plays a chime when something completes.
The key feature is autopilot mode — once you've thoroughly planned an approach with Claude (and this planning phase is where the real work happens), you flip a switch and it auto-approves all tool calls so Claude can run wild for 20+ minutes without interruption. You fully context-switch to the next session that needs your attention. (Yes, there are obvious security implications; the README has warnings.)
The workflow philosophy is basically: let humans do what humans are good at (creativity, planning, decision-making, prioritization) and let AI do what it's good at (fast execution). I'm not interested in agents that run autonomously for 30 hours. I want tight human-AI collaboration where I'm making executive decisions across multiple parallel workstreams and maintaining the kind of deep focus you used to get when writing code by hand — except now you're shipping multiple features in hours instead of days.
No commercial ambitions here — most people aren't working this way yet, and the tool is pretty opinionated about workflow. Just sharing in case it clicks for someone.
Built with Claude Code hooks (shell scripts at lifecycle events), SSE for real-time updates, no dependencies. Local and cloud (multi-machine) variants included.

Location: Ireland (Galway)

Remote: yes

Willing to relocate: within Ireland

Technologies: Go ("Golang"), Python, Ruby, JavaScript, Linux, Unix, PostgreSQL

Résumé/CV: https://www.arp242.net/cv/cv-martintournoij

Email: martin@arp242.net

I've been using Go as my primary language for the last nine years, although I don't overly care about the specific language and have experience with a wide variety of tools and languages such as Python, Ruby, PHP, C, JavaScript, Lua, and probably some more. While I've mainly focused on backend in the last few years, I also have written plenty of frontend code over the years, from the "pre-jQuery" days to VueJS.

In the last few years I mainly focused on GoatCounter (https://www.goatcounter.com) with the occasional contract job, but I'm keen to start working on something new for the longer term.

I've got quite a bit of code on my GitHub, so you can take a look at that if you want: https://github.com/arp242

Nice idea, but "small composable programs" includes R scripts? That's great if you're already using R, a bit much to install if you're not.

You could simplify things by cribbing from the Hacker's Diet (https://www.fourmilab.ch/hackdiet/) and using an exponentially weighted moving average as your filter. 10% of today's weight + 90% yesterday's EWMA. That's almost a one-liner in awk or perl, or a simple function in bash.

Copilot suggests:
awk 'BEGIN{alpha=0.1} NF>=2 {
date=$1; w=$2;
if (NR==1) ewma=w; else ewma=alpha*w + (1-alpha)*ewma;
printf "%s\t%g\t%.6f\n", date, w, ewma
}' input.txt

I feel like I must be missing something, but I just cannot understand the hype around Claude Code. Don't get me wrong, I'm fully bought in on using AI for development and am super happy to use Copilot or Cursor, but as an experienced developer just chatting with the terminal feels so wrong. I've tried it so many times to switch and I can't get into it.

Can anyone else share what their workflow with CC looks like? Even if I never end up switching I'd like to at least feel like I gave it a good shot and made a choice based on that, but right now I just feel like I'm doing something wrong.

I've used Gemini CLI a fair amount as well—it's included with our subscription at work. I like it okay, but it tends to produce "lies" a bit too often. It tends to produce language that reads as over confident that it's found a problem or solution. This causes me extra work to verify or causes me extra time because I believed it. In my experience Claude Code does this quite a bit less.

Hey everyone, a few months ago I started a new job (at GitHub) and quickly found myself drowning in GitHub notifications. The built-in notification UI works well for many use cases, but if you've used it while maintaining many repos or being part of many orgs, you know that it can reach its limits pretty quickly. In the past, I've just delegated this problem to email, using email filtering/triaging to keep track of (and ignore) notifications. This time, though, I decided I didn't want to go through all of the trouble again only to be stuck reading hundreds of PR/Issue/Discussion notifications in plain text (which tends to make my eyes glaze over) every week.

So I built Octobud, a Mac desktop app (limited support for Windows/Linux) that uses GitHub APIs to create a rich Gmail-inspired inbox and workflow tool just for GitHub work.

- Repo: https://github.com/octobud-hq/octobud

- Landing page/quick download link: https://octobud.io

I consider the app stable and very usable for real work (I completely rely on it every day, as do several coworkers), but still fairly early release, so there might be a few small quality of life issues ;)

Some quick info about the app:

- Runs in the Mac menu bar, accessed through browser

- Built with Go, SQLite, and Svelte

- Stores all data locally and manages its own notification lifecycle (does not push anything back to GitHub)

- On Mac, credentials use OS Keychain. On Linux/Windows (not officially supported yet), creds are encrypted for obfuscation but not otherwise secured.

Some feature highlights:

- All the lifecycle features you'd expect - Archive, Snooze, Mute, Skip Inbox, Tag, etc.

- Full keyboard support with 30+ shortcuts

- Rich querying language - `repo:myspecialrepo AND (reason:assigned OR author:myusername) AND -author:[bot]`

- Custom filter views based on filter queries

- Automation rules based on queries OR tied to Views (rule stays in sync with the view's query)

- Issue, PR, Discussion details are cached so you can see them instantly without having to open in GitHub unless you actually need to interact

Finally, a few notes if you want to try it:

- For using at work, I recommend PAT (Personal Access Token) auth as most companies will require you to get the OAuth app approved per-org first. If your org blocks PATs, you won't be able to use the app

- You'll most likely need to go through the extra step of configuring SSO for your PAT to use it with any enterprise orgs. More info in this doc guide: https://github.com/octobud-hq/octobud/blob/main/docs/guides/...

Teacher here. 30% of third graders here in michigan are illiterate. Not just not being able to read at grade level. Like illiterate period. How we do it generally across states is k to 2 is worksheet based instruction and 3-5 is entirely reading based. We started heavily drifting to computers after covid so these students can sometimes spend 3-4 hours everyday on iready etc. Any reading and work after third grade is usually done on computers in short passages. Thats the reason why students struggle with reading. Any other reason is bubbemisa or speculation.

I don't mean to come across as far too cynical, but in what world has a software license ever stopped the greedy and powerful from pillaging the IP of other people smaller and weaker than them?

In my opinion, libertarianism in software is a hollow dream that leads people to make foolish decisions that can't be protected. This makes it easy for corporations to exploit and quash any barely audible opposition.

Almost as if by plan, the libertarian mindset has eroded and weakened open source protections, defanging and declawing it every step of the way.

Return | REMOTE | Software engineer backend (Go/Golang) | Full-time

Return (https://return.energy) is hiring a software engineer to work on platforms that accelerate the transition to carbon-free energy. Return’s main activity is building and operating industrial-scale Battery Energy Storage Systems. Our operations are located in the Netherlands, Germany, Belgium, and Spain. You will make a measurable, country-level impact on the transition to renewable energy. Return recently raised €300M to support its growth.

While we employ more than 120 people, Return’s technical team remains small with 13 members. Our platform automates processes in energy storage, monitoring, market optimization, sales, project management, procurement, construction, and customer service.

During the first three years of operation, we laid the foundation for our platforms, and we are ready to scale up. This is why we are looking for an experienced software engineer.

Your primary focus will be to further develop our battery virtualization platform, enabling customers to use slices of battery capacity distributed across our fleet of industrial-scale batteries.

Our tech stack and toolset are straightforward: Go, Python, Ruby, PostgreSQL, TigerData, dbt, Dagster, Grafana, Terraform, and self-hosted plus cloud compute. We keep meetings to a minimum to provide at least five hours of uninterrupted coding time per day. We conduct code reviews and apply both automated and manual testing. Our web apps and platforms are often deployed multiple times per day.

Return has offices in Amsterdam, Berlin, Brussels, Hamburg, Munich, Madrid, and Stuttgart. We are very open to remote work as long as you live in the EU. Our hiring process is swift but thorough: a brief call to get acquainted and discuss finances, followed by one or more technical interviews, and a paid visit to Amsterdam to meet the team.

The tech team members have co-founded several companies and have worked with remote development teams since 2008, and they will personally guide you through most of the recruiting process (there is no recruiter involved).

We aim to hire you in February or March ultimately.

If you read his support page it's apparent why not. This is a labor of love which he can still hardly keep afloat after trying a variety of income sources such as ads and direct sponsorships.

https://www.fieggen.com/shoelace/support.htm

Why Support Ian?

I've devoted two decades of mostly altruistic labors to the niche topic of shoelaces. I spend probably 60 hours a week continuously improving this website, answering visitors' questions, solving their shoelace problems – even granting permission for my material to be re-used by other educators.

All of this effort earns me less than 1/5 of the Australian National Minimum Wage.

I'm thinking of calling this my “Million Dollar Website” – not because it's worth a million dollars but because it has cost me a million dollars compared to what I could have earned at a regular job (based on an average Australian annual wage of $50,000 × 25+ years).

Any support that you can give will be gratefully accepted and warmly appreciated.

You're continuing to make good arguments for why mass-production should exist _alongside_ artisanal craftsmanship. Broad availability of housing which is functional, albeit of questionable aesthetic appeal, is a good thing to improve housing availability[0]; and also it is a good thing for (fewer) well-built, charming, individual homes to be available for those who want to spend more and to get more.

[0] I'm extremely aware that there are other contributing factors to housing shortages. Tax Billionaires, etc. My metaphor still works despite not being total.

The biggest difference about Rubik's cubing is that once you have mastered 3x3x3, 4x4x4, and 5x5x5 (which is just a slight variant on 3x3x3) all subsequent cubes are just natural extensions of these. A 17x17x17 requires no new skills that aren't already mastered in a 5x5x5, it just takes more time. The nice part of about this is you can really blow peoples minds by pulling out an 11x11x11 cube and solving it at though it were nothing.

Even sided cubes are the hardest because they have issues with "parity" that are only uncovered near the end of the solve and can be quite tedious to fix (at least imho).

I did this with my experimental site GoodFaith.

The idea is everyone posts in good faith, and AI moderates the posts before you send.

You can still go ahead if you don't agree with the moderation, so it isn't censorship, it's just that it provides a pause.

The AI also rates the posts and comments, just like you said.

I built it for precisely the reasons you said, because the way it is going, reddit is unsustainable.

I hope they change something.

> A car does not cost $350 and $500 per month.

This can vary a lot.

6 years ago, I was driving a Subaru BRZ which averaged 32 mpg. My commute was ~30 miles each way, add in a couple miles for weekly errands, and let's just say I was using 10 gallons/week. If gas was $3, that's $30/week, $120/month. Plus $150/month for insurance, it's $270/month.

Still way under your 350-500/month figure, but that's also assuming the car is paid off.

> If it does, it’s a status symbol, not merely a tool to get from A to B, and therefore it is unfair to compare it against taxi rides.

$350-500/month is cheaper than taxi rides. Even with a more reasonable 5-10 mile commute, I'd be spending probably $50/DAY if I took taxis.

Thank you for your comment.

Stelvio uses Pulumi under the hood.

We're not "trying to achieve over them" but instead we have different focus. Our focus is on developers rather than on devops people.

You can setup your infra in stelvio with much less code, almost no worry about IAM, best practices out of the box and developers workflow in mind. E.g. dev mode allows you to change your lambda code live without redeploying.

If interested I can refer you to my older article https://stelvio.dev/blog/why-i-am-building-stelvio/ which tries to explain philosophy or shorter manifesto https://stelvio.dev/about/manifesto/
