@thsottiaux so much better without 5h limit, I thought it existed only to reduce costs. Can't imagine how could it be "better" ux

We've had no 5h limit in Codex plus and pro for a few days. Do you think it is better or are you finding it difficult to manage the usage included in the weekly limit effectively? If we were to make this different, what should it look like in an ideal world?

@ElitzaVasileva it's been gpt over claude since gpt-5, token efficiency makes a huge difference, I don't like over verbose and wasteful nature of claude

Genuinely curious: which model do you prefer so far - Fable 5 or GPT 5.6-Sol? I've been using both for different tasks, and honestly I'm struggling to pick a favorite. They've both been incredibly impressive.

@krzyzanowskim if the world holds together only because we do work inefficiently and artificially defend that way of working, then I'd say it already collapsed but fortunately there is always something new to do, we're just bad letting old stuff go

@szacho imagine we applied software principles to everything. isnt't that beautiful recipe for world collapse?

wait A MINUTE. I just woke up! why do we need lawyers IF THE WHOLE LAW IS WRITTEN IN THE PLAIN LANGUAGE AVAILABLE TO EVERYONE FOR FREE? that does not make any sense. just use what is available and don't let everyone scamming you with their opinion. sure you can read the law, BUT ENOUGH YOU POINT your adversary TO THE LAW TEXT FILE and that solve the problem.

@XH_Lee23 maybe with even more rockets in space people will start to understand there is no us vs others, and we should be in this together

"Kids today in China are lucky to grow up alongside a rising nation. We grew up watching the might of others — US shuttles, Russian space stations, French nuclear carriers," top comment under the video of parents taking their child to watch China's first reusable rocket.

@LyalinDotCom or learn to use worktrees, the idea of talking agents is cool, but there is no need to give up to chance when correct solution exists

Power user AI tip! Suggestion: if you have multiple agents running in the same project, at the same time, making changes, even different models tell them this: "Other models are working in this project, if anything odd happens or things change that you didnt do, it might be the other agent. use hey.md to talk to each other, never block, figure it out and achieve your goals together. clean up the messages in the file when done" This works really well.

@alxshp that's amazing, I wonder how quickly LLMs would pick up the new syntax

PostgreSQL 19 introduces graph-style queries. Instead of manually connecting table after table with joins, you can describe the path through your data: customer → bought → product ← bought ← similar customer → follows → brand Useful for recommendations, access control, fraud detection, knowledge graphs, and AI context. x.com/alxshp/status/…

TIL codex can use 1password configured ssh keys the same way you do I mentioned my home server host while setting up another service and it logged in there casually checking if what I'm saying was true lol

@gabriel1 it helps to live close to nature though, I have a large park nearby and even the same walk is never boring, actually it is the super interesting to see the same place change over seasons but i definitely wouldn't do it so often in concrete jungle

try starting every day with a 30 minute walk, don't bring your phone, and aim to be like a 75 year old peaceful man who walks slowly, looks at the surroundings, and feels the wind like i'd guess 50% of people in their 20s never again put their full attention on a tree

@burkeholland not everybody is able to work hard anyway, and after it is not necessary anymore, you don't have to worry that much about crime and other human issues, because basic needs are covered without work hard working people then have even better environment to flourish

@szacho is that good tho? i fee like hard work is a bit key to human flourishing. it's just gotta be hard work that is meaningful.

We have to get to the point where you don't need to read the code anymore. Otherwise, what are doing?

@burkeholland work won't be forbidden, just optional ;)

@szacho I hope not! I love to work. I also love to code. But I don't think the cost of AI is justified if we still gotta look at everything it does. That just isn't the productivity gains we're after.

@sflorimm show the same frontend screenshot, as you wouldn't even think of it without backend

frontend has UI screenshots. backend has… what? how do backend developers show proof of their work?

@eliana_jordan from what I see on social media, fable seems to excel at mini 3d games for my use case it wasn't life changing as well

controversial opinion: after using fable 5 for a few days on my marketplace… i’m not seeing a huge difference compared to opus 4.6 for some tasks it’s amazing, resonates like wow but for larger features with real project context, i still hit similar limitations. maybe it’s my prompts. but i also expect better models to require less prompt engineering, not more. curious if anyone else feels the same

@Nithya_Shrii What's the global minimum of that function?

The distance between your house and your job affects your quality of life.

@MaximeRivest HN is great for discovering projects like yours though, if comments are so depressing then I wonder who is voting it up to front page? does negativity start once you reach it? maybe I will dig in data sometime to check this

I don't read hacker News much, someone told me my reMarkable project made it there. I don't recommend reading the comments. While it does not affect me emotionally, I was pretty baffle at how negative and suspicions people are. I have a hard time seeing the benefits of being soo gloomy :o

@zeddotdev @huggingface thanks for adding llama.cpp as llama.cpp and not through ollama with different port (as in the vscode..)

🚀 Zed v1.10 is out! Thanks to our friends at @huggingface we finally have support for llama.cpp in Zed.

@whoiskatrin is that different feeling than taking vacation? I can imagine this would be much more idyllic time as you are not coming back to past afterwards

i wasn’t expecting the week between jobs to matter this much i thought i’d get bored after a day or two instead i’ve spent the week reading things i’d saved ages ago, going down random reddit rabbit holes, and finally looking into ideas i’d been putting off i think leaving a bit of space between jobs is underrated, even if it’s just a week

@Tristanrhee3 most random? eat one brazil nut a day to keep your selenium in check

I'm a 27 year old founder. KINDLY recommend to me oddly specific tips for life. NO general “surround yourself with good people” tips please. I want the most random advice possible.

Material World by Ed Conway It is about few most important materials that shaped our civilization. For me the most fascinating part was about production and supply chain of microprocessors. This chain is unbelievably fragile, plenty of nodes are secrets known to handful of people.

I’m trying to level up my world knowledge. I’m looking for books that will blow my head wide open. What would you recommend?
