SeriousM··on Announcement and FAQ: Changes to GitHub Copilot Individual Plans
It's about the comments that are currently exploding.
SeriousM··on AI costs how much? GitHub Copilot users react to new usage-based pricing system
Microsoft just introduced another virtual currency to tinker with.

The comparison with adult webcam services are actually quite fair: you buy the currency, spend it and watch the actor doing it's job... but now in the tech ecosystem.

SeriousM··on Claude Code OS: open-source operations copilot that self-updates
The readme tells me much, but doesn't say anything helpful. I would love to have the authors of the ai tools would at least put a bit love into the explanation...

Anyway, I learned about https://handy.computer which is nice! Combined with Whisper+ from F-Droid and you have a nice way to input voice as text from everywhere.

SeriousM··on Step 3.7 Flash
My guess is "Fun with the Step[mom]". Well... grow up or go to reddit.
SeriousM··on Launch HN: Superset (YC P26) – IDE for the agents era
Sadly there are so few solutions, if even one, that is trying to offer a real remote agent interaction. That's why I've build my own. No IDE per se rather than a discord bridge, with all interaction possibilities that makes sense and a way for my agent to quickly send me files or host mockups. My usecase is to build tools, reports, do research, mock up ideas and build prototypes. That's why I don't need to see the code that was written.
SeriousM··on Qwen3.7-Max: The Agent Frontier
This is the repo: https://huggingface.co/pbhappliedsystems/qwen3.6-27B-gguf-Q4...
SeriousM··on Local AI needs to be the norm
Would you share your experience of the used models? I have quite some experience with the larger models but the smaller ones tend to loop around or just fail on their tasks...
SeriousM··on The USB Situation
@dang, can we please get a flag function for ai slop?

"The lie, the age, the gap, the trap, the names, the buy, the ..."

I really don't come to HN to read such a stuff and HN is full of it since months. Please let us flag it and filter it out.

SeriousM··on Windows quality update: Progress we've made since March
> Second, a shared sense of pride. We want to be proud of what we build...

Yep, that's marketing. You don't care about your users.

SeriousM··on Kimi K2.6 just beat Claude, GPT-5.5, and Gemini in a coding challenge
The ranking of gold medals only makes sense if all models would gave participate all tests.

DNP = Did not participate

In this regard, kimi got more and better medals than Claude.

SeriousM··on DeepSeek V4—almost on the frontier
It really sounds like pi.dev
SeriousM··on LLMs consistently pick resumes they generate over ones by humans or other models
That's why I let the LM write it's own AGENT.md or SAFESPOT.md because it "knows" best how to write it so it can resume next time without issues.

Is hits the same spot as that I would take other notes than anyone else and no one could follow them as easily than I do. Everyone leaves the "of course" parts out of the notes if it's for the own use.

SeriousM··on The gay jailbreak technique (2025)
As old as the second trade ever done.
SeriousM··on The gay jailbreak technique (2025)
I was about to share the joke with my team over ms teams and it was rejected by the system. Do we now have surveillance in default ms teams?
SeriousM··on Copy Fail
I wonder if this is a problem for very old honeypods like the one on turris omnia, sold many years ago. Docker wasn't a thing these days and everything was done with lcx containers, if at all.
SeriousM··on Copy Fail
I was completely unaware of https://syzbot.org, thanks for sharing!

> syzbot system continuously fuzzes main Linux kernel branches and automatically reports found bugs to kernel mailing lists. syzbot dashboard shows current statuses of bugs. All syzbot-reported bugs are also CCed to syzkaller-bugs mailing list. Direct all questions to syzkaller@googlegroups.com.

SeriousM··on Men who stare at walls
No wonder despite the increasing AI pricing. People must find a way to handle the situation.

Did you noticed the Sri Yantra pattern in the Prajnaparamita article?

SeriousM··on Men who stare at walls
For my clients I put it that way: The mind is like a search engine, it can find everything. So don't ask "what did I wrong" but instead "how can I progress".

Usually that's an eye opener.

SeriousM··on Men who stare at walls
I put my phone in the safe until the vacation is over. And for the mind I do Sudoku at times and collect all my new ideas. It's like a harvest time!
SeriousM··on GitHub Copilot is moving to usage-based billing
And when you make your harness ask you for next steps in a tool call, the journey continues forever, yeehaa
SeriousM··on Firefox added a free VPN in v150
50 GB per month free, no way to buy more in this free service.

> How does Mozilla handle my data?

> We collect technical data needed to provide, maintain, and ensure the performance and stability of the service, as well as interaction data to understand usage of the feature and help guide improvements. For example, we may log whether a connection succeeded or failed, or record that 2 GB of data was used on a certain day.

> Importantly, VPN never logs the websites you visit or the content of your communications.

SeriousM··on Nev – keyboard focused GUI and terminal text editor
Wow, ok, that looks like vscode in the console, isn't it?
SeriousM··on I am building a cloud
The other day I vibed a very stable codeserver (vscode in browser) instance with zellij browser mode (console in browser), syncthing (filesyncing), ssh, pi agent and wireguard. No exposed ports, every web frontend is password secured.

I don't want to make that public, it's my way of an isolated dev environment and it runs on my private raspberry behind my tv. Costs me nothing.

I hope you have a good success with your service.

SeriousM··on We found a stable Firefox identifier linking all your private Tor identities
Or shut down and boot tails again. You need privacy? Take your time.
SeriousM··on Show HN: I built a social media management tool in 3 weeks with Claude and Codex
Recently I built a "azure devops deployment central" tool just because microsoft is unable to make their ui usable at scale.

The tool shows all pipelines, builds, buildagents and approval ready in one place at a glance. For the most actions I use the public api but approval I use the internal api because they are still not public, since 4 years.

The tool runs so smooth it scares me too! My guess is that the apis are so stable that it will work for the next 10 years.

A third and very valid one is: You are in a nice he market, be very well connected and buried into customers process and your customer care more about you as a person/consultant/delivery than going though the hassle of replacing you.
SeriousM··on Show HN: Waffle – Native macOS terminal that auto-tiles sessions into a grid
I'm on Windows and I would love to see such a easy solution for the windows terminal.
SeriousM··on OpenClaw’s memory is unreliable, and you don’t know when it will break
Couldn't fitting solve the problem? That's what companies do: take a model as a base and train it on the specific data long enough so that it prefers the new data. Overfitting may be a thing but for personal use, I may want to have it work as I expected, every time.
SeriousM··on Ask HN: What are you building that's not AI related?
Oh wow, that looks sooo awesome!

Why only mac? I would love to see Windows support! The girhub link in the header doesn't work, it's 404.
