Show HN: AI-driven workflow manager built for developers (Need feedback)
As a freelancer managing multiple clients simultaneously while pursuing my own ideas, increasing my bandwidth proved challenging. Hiring people to offload tasks became cumbersome, requiring time for vetting and the risk of having to let them go if clients were not secured.

While I experimented with code generation tools like GPT, I found they lacked the necessary contextual understanding about code, infra, databases, third party APIs, etc. Moreover, although platforms such as JIRA and Notion served well for task management, they fell short in offering a comprehensive workflow solution tailored to developers. This prompted us to develop a developer-centric workflow manager, leveraging AI to automate as many development tasks as possible and streamline the synchronization between developers and AI.

We are currently in the development phase and plan to release our MVP in a month's time. We kindly request your critical feedback on our product, and we are particularly interested in understanding any pain points you have encountered where our product could potentially simplify your life. Your valuable feedback will greatly contribute to refining our plans as we approach the upcoming launch in early next month.
I vaguely recall a meme somewhere about how ridiculous it is to ask, say, a sports or movie star their opinion on politics or something else that isn't their field just because they're famous.

Heck, even within one's field, Bret may have neat ideas about interfaces for programming and attained a sort of celebrity status for some of us, but that doesn't mean he can confidently answer random questions from strangers. He's a researcher, not a guru.
I want to thank you sincerely for capturing the sentiment of the piece. This is exactly what I had in mind and I'm genuinely happy you were able to get that from the text :)
I think you're taking it too literally. It's meant to convey the meaning of "Delivering a payload wasn't the goal, testing the rocket and all associated systems was the goal".

I am a Full Stack Developer with expertise in HTML, CSS, JavaScript, React, and Node.js. I have experience developing web applications from scratch, implementing secure authentication systems, and integrating APIs to enhance functionality. I have been working for past 3 years for many US based clients both small startups and independent projects. I am looking for full-time/part-time work and would love to discuss potential opportunities.
This would even be grounds for firing in the Netherlands, which has the most rigorous employee protections on the planet.

I mean in what world do you go to a conference on company time, as a representative of that company and then type "Fuck you" to one of your biggest customers?
Down the drain? The money has been used to pay people's labor and sourcing materials. That was demand attended to by highly sophisticated supply chains. SLS isn't some stone monument in the desert. It's a huge engineering undertaking.
I'll edit the article accordingly, thanks for looking into it.
As I understand it the tendon forms a matrix that allows a ligament to regrow along it. At around 3 months the tendon graft dies off and the ligament tissue continues to grow.
> I'm from a country that went through the horrors of malicious forced social change (under Communism)

I call communism cancer, let's be crystal clear about that first.

Because of such permanent hate towards communism, I am deeply concerned as more and more countries are developing into de facto communism. Huge amount of $ were handed out to the public during COVID-19, in normal days you also see nonsenses like public housing and so called free health care which are actually covered by other hard working average tax payers - they are forced to cover other people's problem. In the end, many people got brainwashed to believe that there is a state that looks after everyone. Such typical communist way of thinking is horrible at best.

I'd willing to bet that your country is just one of the above described one. You should be very concerned. Communism isn't dead, it just got itself a slightly different skin.

One major part of your point is the desire for OCAPS (object-capability system), I think.

Others mentioned ChromeOS but I think the Google effort in this direction lies in Fuchsia today. The Zircon kernel is quite different from Linux from what I can tell, but given enough effort and time (not necessarily by Google) may become a viable target for server workloads.

And you get navigation, playing music and telephone integration. What a jump in technology. The one thing that would have mattered would be a dependable autopilot. In the absence of that the rest is pretty much crap.

And the systems often aren't too advanced either. Sure, there are some sensors. Often very low tech as well. But the car industry also build in DRM for single components, so you cannot register parts by third parties. They will be rejected.

I wouldn't be surprised if electric vehicles have a much worse co2 footprint in its life cycle than your average 10 year old car, just because the new cars will quickly be dismantled when repairs aren't economically viable anymore. Although that is as true for modern combustion cars as well.

The article just looks at crash repairs. But much more important is the maintainability towards the end of a cars life cycle. The data doesn't really exist yet though. That aside, I disagree that new cars offer too many benefits. Navigation, music, telephone. Security might be better, but I don't believe there were huge jumps as the article advertised.

Technically so, but not confused - it may hallucinate but that's unrelated to context window (and more due to dataset and number of parameters)

However, a longer context does mean you can give a lot more verbose instruction, maybe feed a whole code base over just a single script to give wider context over the current problem
The screenshot of the DoD recruitment pitch from the conference set off a little "military-industrial complex alarm" in my mind. To be clear, I wouldn't have tagged the guy in a mean tweet. I would have just frowned and gone on with my day. But I think it's crucial that the voices of people like this blogger be present in tech communities.
Pretty sure LSPs communicate by stdin/out don't they?

Agree generally.. But I gotta admit, MS's LSP protocol has been successfully implemented by many non-MS IDEs. I'm doubtful this would be the case had they defined a c api instead.
Its not quite the same, the highres fix in Auto1111 used the same model twice, the upscaling for SDXL uses two different models for each stage.
I'm in literally the same boat, on Debian now because of snaps. Their other homegrown stuff were mostly out of the way, like Unity or upstart, but snap was just really annoying with how it's integrated into the system.

I think this is the correct question to ask. Or perhaps, does it mean Canonical is reducing its support for the lxd project?
> We left behind that paradigm in Operating Systems decades ago, and with good reason.

I'm curious, what reason?

I grew up on Python and C#, and only know async/await, never done real threading (C# async is threading and coroutines under the hood, Python is just coroutines, single-threaded). I find that way of writing code very elegant, as one can encode points of blocking/switching explicitly. A bit like encoding logic into the type system (cliffle has an article on the type state pattern, a good read!): the underlying async implementation can change without code adjustments.

Lack of competition and laws tailored to the privatized Deutsche Telekom: If I dig up the street to put fiber optics, they may join in for free. So may I, if they dig up streets - they just don't.
Water should be your primary concern to survive a couple of weeks or maybe months.

"try to manipulate me"

Not sure if it's manipulation, but I certainly put my consideration for taggers between that of cockroaches and flatworms when I see one of those
It's just enough to be a headache tax-wise, but not enough to be a viable replacement for my dayjob. Something like $50-$200 USD per month. Slow months are less, months where I post bangers are more. Combined with Patreon (consistently $200 per month), it's enough to make all of my hosting costs covered. It's seriously incredible that I can have that much support for not a lot of work. I am also looking at further cost-optimizing things so that I can move my website to something like Fly. My server that my website is hosted on is like 55€ per month and the main reason it needs something that chonky is because Tokio performs better when there's more runner threads.

Otherwise I've also been considering pooling money for a bit and buying a proper server to drop into a datacentre near where I live. That could be fun!

Wait, them trying out if the concrete alone is strong enough to withstand the launch makes you wonder how close we are? I’m wondering about life support, producing fuel in Mars and a lot of other things, but the floor of the launch stand really does not bother me at all. People love to complain about spaceX and this gave them a great reason.
That load doesn't pay though, it's a dummy load. You are talking about mass, the article, if we allow a little more leeway to the term "payload" than the strictest monetary sense, was talking about purpose and the purpose was certainly not to get ballast to Hawaii.

That aside, I presume those frequency responses are not on the electromagnetic spectrum but about mechanical resonance? Was that a process to make the dummy better resemble whatever real payload it was supposed to represent or was that something that simply needs to be done for any load, dummy or not? An interesting little glimpse into what actual rocket science is like for us clueless software-heads.

Mostly about bot detection and browser fingerprinting.
There wasn't even a payload, since the definition of that word requires it to be valuable in some way. We can just call it a load, I guess.
Yeah, mobile is tough. Termux works, but not as a comfortable experience as whatsapp. I'll see what I can cook up.

Indeed, multiplatform is very very costly.
Do you really have to use Ubuntu for LXC? My (Debian-based) Proxmox has LXC capability, and it's easy to find instructions to other Linuxes, like so: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/LXC. Is there something I'm missing?
Docker compose wraps the app and db in a few lines of config: https://github.com/docker/awesome-compose/tree/master/offici... the extra config is for networking / db connections - you don't get those on Android because you don't run network services on it.

K8s can do the same thing, but has more options.
Snow cover increases surface albedo which reduces the day/night temperature differentials that drive wind. Static cloud cover has the same effect.
My first question would be: Do "best investors" actually exist?

The title implies that some investors are better than others. But I have not yet seen any data driven argument in favor of this theory. There are so many investors on planet earth, that even if they all have the same ability to predict the future prices of stocks, some will do unbelievably better than others. By pure chance.

The article starts with a photo of Charlie Munger and Warren Buffett. Does this imply that they are "better" than the average investor?

Someone who would have invested in Microsoft 20 years ago and said "Hey, I am sure software will grow like mad! That's enough for me to know about the markets. From now on, all I will do is wait." would have been right. And would have seen about twice the return that Berkshire achieved. There must be many such investors. Are they all "better" than Munger and Buffett?

Now some might say that it is "easy" to outperform the market with a single stock. Pick a very volatile one and your chances are 50%. And that Munger and Buffett made many investments. And that the chance is low to make that many investments and in total still beat the S&P500. Ok. But how low is the chance for the number of trades Berkshire did? Maybe it is totally normal, that some investors do that many trades and beat the S&P500 by pure chance.

By the way, a QQQ certificate which contains the 100 largest tech companies also outperformed Berkshire and had about twice their performance over the last 20 years.
I don't see the issue with this one. If you are working for the company in the first place, you're making an agreement to give your energy, and contribute to this company. It doesn't make much sense to willingly enroll in a company to then criticize its clients and business. The fact that they now represent this company is also quite obvious... This employee of course has the freedom to express its discontent with the company, but then the company is also free to fire this employee for not fitting the culture. If both disagree, it makes sense that they part ways in the end.
Everyone in the industry hates Autodesk. They do nothing good except serve software everyone relies on and do it reasonably well.

Licenses are very expensive but everyone pays because nothing else works as well. It's all a bit Windows.

They are loathsome people to work with who only care about licensing and then just abandon you to buggy tools. Still I look at the open source and other competitors and they win, at all things.

I am hoping they are declared a monopolist by the EU but I think the Building Information Management software tide will drown them. It's complicated though.

What an awful anti-intellectual neologism. People on HN love to talk about rubber-ducking their code, but do it for your dreams and get made fun of. Unless you’re a famous writer :)
> I’m out of tweets for today.

What a time to be alive.
I see a lot of writing like this about LLM's ability to generate code, but I'm a lot more interested/optimistic about their ability to provide value by reading code.

Being able to point to a github repo and say something like "explain this codebase, highlighting key functions and potential refactoring routes" would be really helpful. I've trialled that a little bit with codebases I know well and the results aren't yet helpful beyond a very high level.

I think it's a pretty reasonable goal to aim for though, and this kind of codebase parsing would be much more of a net gain than just generating a tonne of functional but suboptimal code.
Direct quote from article: "drivers might step on the accelerator for too long"

How is that a "newly uncovered “gas” pedal issue"?
That's a good point regarding scientific claims about the future, thanks. You are right that the future of a complex system is impossible to predict precisely, and maybe that's often misleadingly communicated.

I think in terms of negative consequences, though, the effects of anthropogenic climate change are already here in the present. Although it is scientifically debated to what extent one can attribute single weather extremes to co2 emissions, it's not really disputed that today's climate, which is already severely impacting humans negatively, is due to past human emissions.

Basically: it's already happening right now, and to identify the mechanisms responsible for the present climate does not require belief that goes beyond other scientific insights that are otherwise widely accepted.
Well, this text may be read by a person born in the future. It's hard to tell whether the population will keep growing or if it will fall by then. It's hard to make predictions, especially about the future
Because it is an IDE for Go.
It is quite dystopian in general. We are in an early stages of a corporate dystopia all across the world. Very polite and grownup dystopia. For instance it only took 8 years for my employee to stop working with an aggressor country, responsible for killing tens of thousands in those 8 years. And they were both fulfilling contracts for customers from that country and employing contractors there. Neither me nor practically anyone else in the company could speak out against this (and like half of the contractors in the company were from the country being massacred). But we were definitely very polite and all grownup. Great for the business, yeah? :)

I'm not against capitalism, or pro some rebellion, or pro insulting people on twitter. But on the other hand I do realise that the corporate dystopia is only ever increases, because of of the immense power imbalance between individual humans and corporations.
If it wasn't old school this screams NsCDE or Windowmaker. But they are very old school.
I use a C wrapper that calls the shell script. Ugly, and I need to harden the script a bit more, but it works :)

I looked it up and apparently this is left unspecified[0]. So I suppose I take that back!

Also yeah, I use LSPs and I myself don't have a strong grasp of the use of dynamically linked libraries. I don't mean it as a put-down of web programmers (I am one). There is value in this microservice type approach, though it does feel very "webby".

Sounds like the same techbro idiocy that got people killed just the other week.

Rush replied four days later, saying that he had “grown
tired of industry players who try to use a safety argument
to stop innovation and new entrants from entering their
small existing market.” He understood that his approach
“flies in the face of the submersible orthodoxy, but that is
the nature of innovation,” he wrote. “We have heard the
baseless cries of ‘you are going to kill someone’ way too
often. I take this as a serious personal insult.”

It's interesting to see that they distinguish between pro and private users by not allowing private users a receipt.

I'm pretty sure this is illegal where I live. I like the idea, though. If you're hobbyist you typically don't need a receipt.
