franze··on Show HN: Let your AI agents paint big arrows, boxes and text on your screen
i did spare quite a lot with it of how i want the arrows to look like

the first versions looked way to professional and lost that "yes, that, exactly that, i mean it" arrow feeling that i am usually going for

no, it is not the permissions that are holding the model back from above cases, it is the system prompt and / or the model itself.

Claude refuses to do certain actions (enter passwords, change security settings, create new accounts on external services) even in Yolo mode running as sudo. (I tested it all on its own mac machine)

Wondering, with all these harnesses if my app would count as a meta harness?

franze··on Show HN: Dreadsweeper – Minesweeper Raycasted
An update to https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49050803 where a quick Claude artefact actually hit the HN homepage. No actually useable.
franze··on Sun Clock
Nice UI ideas in that one.

Here my one from a few years ago. With whole year overview slider https://daylight.franzai.com/

had this in the 00 at a company i worked at, happended to me one time, pizza for the all dev teams. i took the lesson (never happend again), but refused to buy the pizza. i am there for earning money, not to spend it.
franze··on Mark Zuckerberg attacks 'closed' AI rivals as Meta returns to open models
i disagree

earning money is an effect of running a company, not a goal.

its like saying the goal of an olympic swimmer is to stay afloat. no, staying afloat is a prerequisite of winning. not a goal in itself.

franze··on Mark Zuckerberg attacks 'closed' AI rivals as Meta returns to open models
i was wondering why meta has such a hard time with llm development

its the organisational goal of that endeavour

they are doing it in a phase of firing people

so the goal of llm at meta is "to make people redundant" and no matter of HR/PR speak can change it

antrophic and openai have the goal "lets create the future"

whomever they hire and no matter how much money they spend on it, the goal alone will create very different outcomes.

franze··on Docker Sandboxes – Disposable, isolated sandboxes for AI agents
Here is my solution which uses the Apple Virtualization Framework

https://apps.apple.com/app/aifcc-ai-first-computer/id6782364...

als has lots of agents + and typical dev packages (node tooling, python tooling, ....) preinstalled

franze··on Auto mode is now the default in Claude Code
I built an (overengineered) app for that AIFCC https://apps.apple.com/app/aifcc-ai-first-computer/id6782364...

runs a sandboxed linux on your mac, and the agents have full system rights within there and run in yolo mode

franze··on Ask HN: What are you working on? (August 2026)
update to my ai first desktop https://apps.apple.com/app/aifcc-ai-first-computer/id6782364...
franze··on Don't use your phone while you poop
I have Stiftung Warentest Yearly Editions from 2020 to now there.

My guests stay for ages.

franze··on I stopped trusting USB-C cable labels and started testing them
yeah, the app tries to tale this into account and gives an "unverified" label on stuff that is doubtful
franze··on Workers Drilling in Romania Broke into a Cave Sealed for 5.5M Years
> this was not an ordinary cave. It was something far rarer

so probably a cheap openai model

franze··on I stopped trusting USB-C cable labels and started testing them
I coded this as an exercise https://apps.apple.com/app/cable-detective/id6765963737?mt=1... - reads everything it can about the plugged in cables and devices, feeds it to Apples internal AI.

In the latest version it even doesn't crash the computer anymore after rapid plug/unplugging action.

franze··on Xbox goes down. You can't play games you own on disc
the hardware is good

but it is so hard to give them money on it

i dread buying new games as it is a game of chance what way might work this time

i set to view just one time

opened url in anonymous browser - image was shown

reloaded - image gone

franze··on What's the largest software project AI can complete on its own?
my biggest so far was https://apps.apple.com/at/app/aifcc-ai-first-computer/id6782... a whole linux distro in a mac app. claude worked for about 2 weeks.
