If you're sure of this, then what actions have you taken to shield yourself and/or profit from this? If I were a true believer that AI was going to takeover, I'd be allocating a large part of my portfolio into AI companies (hardware & software) along with learning a trade that's relatively safe, like cleaning septic tanks or construction.

Do you really believe in the narrative you're pushing?

Music production is the killer feature that benefits a lot from CPU performance.

I only recently bought an iPad for the first time this year after realizing this was feasible. I’ve always preferred digital music workflows, but hated dealing with a laptop and DAW. iOS supports AUv3 plugins and cross app audio, so it’s pretty much a full DAW experience (I use loopy pro). The form factor forces AUv3 devs to design smarter interfaces.

Plus, I dislike using the iPad for literally anything else, so I’m less likely to get distracted :)

Fractional AI | Senior/Staff Software Engineer | SF, NY, NC, Dubai | Onsite

We’re a team of experienced generalist SWEs and AI enthusiasts who are building custom AI agents for enterprise clients. You’ll work on 3-4 different projects a year and play a central role on each one. No AI experience required: we are actively trying to be the best place in the world to learn applied AI.

I’m Frank, an engineer here. This is the first services-style company I’ve worked at, so for those of you in a similar boat, this is what I’ve really liked so far:

* The learning rate is super fast. 3-4 client projects a year, each with different tech stacks, products, industries, and architectures.

* Our projects are typically high priority and sponsored by prominent executives. The path here for projects to have real impact on usage or bottom line is much shorter.

* We’re “selling pickaxes during the gold rush”. When AI finds its next killer app, we’ll hopefully be the first to know about it.

We’re hiring SWEs onsite with offices in San Francisco, New York, Durham NC, and Dubai. Feel free to reach out to me directly (frank@fractional.ai) or take a look at the full job posting:

Show HN: Gipity – AI cloud computer in the browser
by siverson914 | 2026-03-02 18:26:07+00:00
Hi HN,

I built Gipity, an AI-native cloud computer that runs entirely in your browser.

https://gipity.ai
(free to try)

The original goal was a "hosted OpenClaw" - a chat-driven environment with persistent state and real infrastructure behind it. It has since expanded into something closer to a programmable cloud workspace.

It looks like a terminal (retro DOS style), but it is not just chat. It supports:

- Persistent files

- Programmable databases

- Agentic workflows and scheduled tasks

- Access to multiple top-tier AI models

- App creation and execution from chat

Demo video:
https://youtu.be/Nbs2jpG3iHA

In the demo video I show:
- Creating and editing a small web app

- Generating and adding sound effects

- Saving state to a database

- Setting up a daily automation

- Compiling and running a Win64 assembly binary

I am particularly interested in feedback on:

- Where this fits relative to tools like Replit or Lovable

- Whether "chat-first AI computer" makes sense as a framing?

- What would be required for you to actually use something like this

Happy to answer technical questions about architecture, isolation, storage, orchestration - or ServiceNow (where I currently work building their coding assistant) or my prior startups (started in 1998!).

-Steve

Wild. Thanks for the keywords to search-engine this with. I found "Reverse engineering the Motorola Sensorhub: Part 1"[0]. To this point I hadn't thought about how they might have implemented the feature. That article sheds some light on it.

In Zig you need an allocator to allocate anything, so whenever you need to add some extra information to an error, you pass a diagnostics object as an output argument to a potentially failing function. In this case it becomes a bit harder to compare it to Go's errors, each with pros and cons. I think comparing Go errors to Rust errors would be more fair.

There are some articles about the diagnostic pattern in Zig, e.g. [1], [2]

> Yeah, but the advantage in the modern world is reverse engineering things is easy; if your tech isn't patented, it can be copied

That's true for products that are freely distributed, less so for inventions that are more closely held.

If you're doing something like cutting-edge physics, aerospace, semiconductors, biotech, etc -- trade secrets have always been pretty compelling by default, and patents were seen as a way to encourage more sharing.

It's a balance, and I think we should be mindful that we don't get too caught up in worrying about mass-produced widgets of little importance "taking advantage" of patents so much that we eliminate out the incentive to share the real cutting edge advancements.

In an alternative software world, "Attention is all you need" could have been a trade secret instead of a public paper.

Hi there. Right now they are going to a separate git repo, yes. Like this:

local-governor/epics/e-epics/e014-clinical-domain-model/runs/run-e014-01-ops-catalog-20260302-173907-244c82

- Attempts

+ Steps

- Step 1

- Step 2

- ...

- Step 13

job_def.yaml

job_instance.json

changes_final.patch

run_report.md

improvement_suggestions.md

local-governor is my store for epics, specs, run records, schemas, contracts, etc. No logic, just files. I want all this stuff in a DB, but it's easier to just drop a file path into my spec runner or into a chat window (vscode chat or cli tool), but I'm tinkering with an alt version on a cloud DB that just projects to local files... shrug. I spend about as much time on tooling as actual features :)

I disagree, I think it is 92.7% (to be fair, article does say the number is handwavy).

Though the assertion how (loosely) bad methods stumbling on a good result are reinforced vs good methods not leading to a hypothesis confirmation are discared for training sounds like extremely important pattern to watch out for: not just with tech like AI but also in life.

To a firm with such policies, to allow Cowork outside the VM should be strictly worse.

Ironically, VMs are typically blocked because the infosec team isn't sure how to look inside them and watch you, unlike containers where whatever's running is right there in the `ps` list.

They don't look inside the JVM or .exes either, but they don't think about that the same way. If they treat an app like an exe like a VM, and the VM is as bounded as an app or an exe, with what's inside staying inside, they can get over concerns. (If not, build them a VM with their sensors inside it as well, and move on.)

This conversation can take a while, and several packs of whiteboard markers.

This a pretty general recipe to make a company care.

A Professional letter letting them know that you know your rights, and that they know your rights (Them getting your letter is your proof of that) is what the beginning of a someone losing his bonus for a compliance incident looks like.

Companies don't care about you, or even shareholders, they care about the incentives of leadership.

I think originally Apple was using SproutCore, which had similar aspirations to produce "desktop quality" web apps, and was one of the early frameworks to implement things like two-way data binding. This was back when iCloud was called MobileMe.

SproutCore 2.0 became Ember.js 1.0, but I don't know if Apple are still using it.

I built a live Terraform visualizer, but users wanted an AI to write and audit their HCL. Here’s how we did it without access to state or secrets

Been writing TF since 0.11 and survived the 0.12 migration. Built multi-cloud architectures (AWS B2B banking, GCP peering, Crossplane self-service). After all this time Terraform never gets much easier, you just build more complicated headaches.

Yes, Terraform is the `right` way of doing things. It allows you to review changes before applying but at the cost of being obscure. Most SWEs don't want to deal with it and even infra engineers will occasionally do some click-ops and then reconcile.

Originally, I built a tool to auto-generate architecture diagrams from Terraform code, mostly because I hated having to manually update diagrams and expected other people did as well. After releasing it and talking to early users, I realised seeing the infrastructure was an issue but it wasn't the main issue. Changing it safely was. As an SRE, I really wanted to create a tool to help devs self-serve infrastructure and to speed up infra changes without having to add another abstraction layer on top. So, we created Grafos.ai and added an agentic layer to explain and modify the code, as well as a policy management system so you can define all of your organisation's policies, automatically run them against the changes, and also update your terraform to match them easily.

We didn’t want to create an invasive and potentially destructive AI and give it to your infrastructure and we didn't want to break your development processes, so we built some ground rules into it.

* Its doesn't do arbitrary code changes, it creates PRs so you can double check your terraform before anything is applied
* Zero state or secret access, so you don’t have to trust it at all, it’s just your terraform code
* Live visualisation so you can instantly see actually what changes are being proposed
* Natural language guardrails and policies so you can make sure all changes are in line with your organisation's guardrails and style guides.

I’d love for you to try it and tear it apart, it’s early days and we’re shipping features and changes literally everyday so any feedback good or bad would be amazing!

Didn't expect to see cappuccino mentioned ever again. It was so wild, you can use AppKit documentation for cappuccino. Apps were so pretty and yet so fast.

I remember back in 2009 I really liked their coffee machine icon. I emailed the devs, they referred me to some design studio, and then to my surprise they replied and said that it's Francis Francis X1. Now I'm looking at it in my home office.

Win11debloat solves 99% of annoyances with Windows 11 in <5 minutes. I’ve used in as the first step on every Win 11 install for years. It’s mostly just a bunch of Powershell commands disabling/configuring features.

https://github.com/Raphire/Win11Debloat

Nothing has ever reverted after an update for me, so it’s a one-and-done thing. Ironically, afterwards Windows 11 has fewer noticeable ads than my MacBook which still continually pushes Apple services/shows/etc in settings/push notifications.

The only setting that I’ve ever seen sneakily disabled in recent years is the Edge default search engine but that's out-of-scope for Win11debloat.

I would argue that in a digital world, copyright should be inversely scalable to the size of the creator - that is, individual works by independent artists intended for exhibition rather than reproduction should receive more favorable terms than movies or games created by huge conglomerates intended for mass reproduction, licensing, and sale.

Or more simply: if you’re not selling it presently, you don’t get copyright on it. There, abandonware and lost media rights are solved, and we can all move on.

I probably would have settled for a button, but the gesture is so nice. (There's also a "twist" gesture to activate the camera. It's also nice. I haven't ever gotten false positives with the gestures and they have become second nature. I never used any gestures before having a Moto phone and always thought accelerometer-based input was gimmicky and unreliable based on my experience with prior phones.)

The average consumer may not care but there's multiple overlapping segments that Motorola can capitalise on here:

- tech consumers (i.e. the current GOS pixel market)

- family members of tech consumers. i.e. tech consumers can hopefully now recommend stock grapheneOS on motorola to family members since it's not a custom ROM but just a stock device with official manufacturer support.

- privacy/security conscious non-techy types.

- non-techy users who want a device without AI or a bunch of unnecessary addon apps like google or samsung tend to preload on devices.

- business IT optimising for security and minimal attack surface while sticking to COTS B2B and B2C options for corporate handhelds.

Like this isn't the largest market ever but it's a sizeable and fairly loyal market because each one of these groups is fairly opposed to unnecessary change. It's safe, reliable, and sustainable growth in a broader market that is extremely hostile.

And they are in particular targeting the business IT market since this announcement was made as part of their showcase on their new B2B cellular options.

I meant decomposable by bacteria.

It's trivial to make plastics that break, but then you have many microplastics which again don't decompose.

The breakage isn't even infinite, as the particles grow smaller, the shear resistance grows and it stops splitting, and again nothing decomposes it further

So decompose =/= break.

I don't think he ever said in the article that he is not making the argument about the importance of democratic oversight, if anything, in the conclusion, he says:

"The way to address this new reality, however, is with new laws and through strengthening accountable oversight; cheering or even demanding that an unelected executive decide how and where such powerful capabilities can be used is the road an even more despotic future."

But I think you drastically misunderstood the point of this article. Ben is pointing out the implications of Amodei's analogy of advanced AI being like nuclear weapons. The government has a monopoly on nuclear weapons and has extreme regulations and oversight on the companies that help build nuclear weapons for it. And those companies do not tell the government how or when they can use the nukes.

So if advanced AI is like nuclear weapons, why can an unelected executive tell a democratically elected government how to use it?

It really is insane that the West/World watches while Russia fires ballistic missiles and send hundreds of drones targeting civilians. Could you imagine this happening to Berlin, Paris, London and so on? No one says anything, rather they try to ignore it like it isn't happening. If Ukraine didn't shoot down the majority of these Missiles and Drones the death toll of civilians would be in the 100's of 1000's. There are videos now online where Romanians watch Russian drones fly through their territory to bomb Ukrainian cities and they don't even try to shoot them down.

Europe has turned out to be incredibly cowardly and inept while America is totally indifferent. I guess Ukrainian lives are cheap and worthless to them. It would be deserved if this war came to the Europeans in the most awful way.

It might be aligned with the purpose of the market, but I have to ask, what exactly is the reason that a non-insider would ever make a bet? You know beforehand that insiders will sit on the information until just before it goes public (the larger the public sentiment against a certain position, the more you make by betting on it with hidden information). Likewise, there's a negative incentive for insiders to release information, and allowing the "forecasting of the future as accurately as possible" to actually happen.

Like, if I know a month ago that the US will invade Iran, and I make a big bet on "Yes", then that of course gives people information, which in turn negates my edge. So it's entirely self-defeating. It's actually way better to try to convince the general public that it won't happen through non-market means, or perhaps even buy a few "No" shares just to drum up public opinion. You'll get that money back anyway once the bet resolves.

Just imagine: the boxing champ is planning to take a dive in the third round. You think he'll make his bet a week in advance?

When passive monitoring turns into analytics -> public watching turns into stalking.

it’s ok for me to observe a person in public park - it should be ok to watch camera for an activity

But if it’s not ok for me to stalk someone I think it should be illegal for a network of cameras to watch my movements too!

Slapping AI onto stalking is still stalking.

Show HN: Workz – run 5 AI agents on parallel Git worktrees with one command
by rohansx | 2026-03-02 18:29:51+00:00
I got tired of the git worktree workflow being broken by default — every new
worktree drops you into a directory with no .env, no node_modules, and you're
waiting on npm install before you can do anything.

workz fixes that automatically. It symlinks heavy directories (node_modules,
target, .venv) and copies .env files into every new worktree. Zero config — it
detects your project type from lockfiles.

But the thing I'm most excited about is fleet mode, added in v0.5:

workz fleet start \
--task "add user authentication" \
--task "refactor the database layer" \
--task "write integration tests" \
--agent claude

That creates 3 isolated worktrees, syncs deps into each, writes a .workz-task.md
with the task description, and launches Claude in all three simultaneously. Each
agent works on its own branch with no interference.

v0.6 adds `workz serve` — a local web dashboard at localhost:7777 showing all
your worktrees as cards with status, last commit, actions (sync, open in
VS Code/Cursor, remove). Fleet worktrees get their own section showing the task.

v0.4 added an MCP server so Claude Code can manage worktrees autonomously:
claude mcp add workz -- workz mcp

Stack: Rust, single binary, ~5MB. Ships for macOS and Linux.

cargo install workz
brew install rohansx/tap/workz

GitHub: https://github.com/rohansx/workz

Happy to answer questions about the architecture — the worktree + symlink
strategy and the MCP integration were the interesting design problems.
