mrklol··on Self-hosted web push Cloudflare Worker, works on iOS
My biggest problem with web push is that you won’t get notifications on iOS anymore, if you haven’t opened the app for a while. A tad bad for some apps.
mrklol··on GPT‑Live
How did you give it access to your projects? That’s something I never thought does work as the voice model has no access outside of its scope?
mrklol··on Postgres rewritten in Rust, now passing 100% of the Postgres regression tests
And also the amount of people running it in thousands of scenarios. Not sure if these areas can be even tested for, but I guess time will tell (can observe Bun if it breaks somewhere as that’s afaik the first big AI rewrite which got into prod for masses).
mrklol··on Postgres rewritten in Rust, now passing 100% of the Postgres regression tests
I agree but I think from Bun we learned that a project with really good tests and enough tokens can be converted from one language to another quite good!
mrklol··on DSpark: Speculative decoding accelerates LLM inference [pdf]
Why?
mrklol··on Open Code Review – An AI-powered code review CLI tool
In which areas do you feel like the mentioned are bad? Do they find less and your own solution has more success?

If the latter, do you know why?

mrklol··on GitHub Copilot App
And the team behind opencode is working on an alternative https://github.com/anomalyco/rift
mrklol··on GitHub confirms breach of 3,800 repos via malicious VSCode extension
Because it’s high or low? Imo it’s not that hard to reach that amount, they have quite a few employees, offering services for ~20 years and it’s probably also containing small repos - would’ve imagined way more tbh.
mrklol··on Cursor Introduces Composer 2.5
Isn’t it a really cheap alternative to sota models (according to benchmarks)?
mrklol··on A Tiny E Reader
I like their approach on going smaller, X4 has the perfect size and I feel like X3 is actually even a bit too small (missing usb c is a bit weird tho).

Compared to kindles going bigger and bigger - now with 11+ I feel like they are too big as a handheld.

mrklol··on I moved my digital stack to Europe
I think I would move everything too for my hobby projects, if it wouldn’t be that crazy cheap at Cloudflare. I still use external servers in the EU for backend stuff, but CDN, static pages, frontend projects run at Cloudflare for free or the $5 tier. I legit can’t get cheaper than this, till they adjust their pricing.

Their free tier seems way too generous and I suppose this has to be adjusted at some point.

mrklol··on Zed 1.0
Personally the main advantage is to simply spin up new ones with the same setup. You can also do that by yourself but imo it includes way more managing and time compared to exe
mrklol··on Write less code, be more responsible
imo a question is, do you still need to understand the codebase? What if that process changes and the language you’re reading is a natural one instead of code?
mrklol··on Show HN: sllm – Split a GPU node with other developers, unlimited tokens
Seems like they have a rate limit so it is kinda the same as normal subs - don’t really see the advantage yet
mrklol··on OpenAI closes funding round at an $852B valuation
Where exactly are they behind?
mrklol··on Google's 200M-parameter time-series foundation model with 16k context
Not directly 2024, there was a big update end 2025
mrklol··on Leanstral: Open-source agent for trustworthy coding and formal proof engineering
Am I missing something? Isn’t that the language most are using currently when looking at research at openai, google, deepseek etc?
mrklol··on Glaze by Raycast
Same thought I had while reading, don’t really see a big advantage here.
mrklol··on Firefox 148 Launches with AI Kill Switch Feature and More Enhancements
Firefox mentions the following ones:

"- Translations, which help you browse the web in your preferred language.

- Alt text in PDFs, which add accessibility descriptions to images in PDF pages.

- AI-enhanced tab grouping, which suggests related tabs and group names.

- Link previews, which show key points before you open a link.

- AI chatbot in the sidebar, which lets you use your chosen chatbot as you browse, including options like Anthropic Claude, ChatGPT, Microsoft Copilot, Google Gemini and Le Chat Mistral."

mrklol··on Speed up responses with fast mode
Yep same, I often think why this isn’t a thing yet. Running some tasks in the night at e.g. 50% of the costs - there’s the batch api but that is not integrated in e.g. claude code
mrklol··on How to effectively write quality code with AI
I am similar but I think we just have to adjust. Learn and improve writings specs with all the details.
mrklol··on Nanobot: Ultra-Lightweight Alternative to OpenClaw
Didn’t openclaw switch to vector based because it used way less tokens as it always loaded all memories? Seems way more efficient
mrklol··on Qwen3-Coder-Next
Because they make it easy. Imagine they limit their models to their tooling and suddenly it’s introducing work.
mrklol··on Qwen3-Coder-Next
I mean if it’s running in your lan, isn’t it local? :D
mrklol··on Ask HN: Do you also "hoard" notes/links but struggle to turn them into actions?
My main problem always was that I hoard these links and never read again. Now I am trying to get a short summary (via llm‘s) and it works quite well.
mrklol··on Launch HN: AgentMail (YC S25) – An API that gives agents their own email inboxes
Looks like SES + api access, isn’t Amazon offering that already?
mrklol··on Kimi Released Kimi K2.5, Open-Source Visual SOTA-Agentic Model
They also have a $20 and $40 tier.
mrklol··on Anthropic's original take home assignment open sourced
Oh, I thought candidates got 2 hours but now I am confused too
mrklol··on Anthropic's original take home assignment open sourced
Milk before cereals
mrklol··on Show HN: I quit coding years ago. AI brought me back
For me it’s kinda the same. I always hated typing actual code, I love planing, reading, finding bugs etc. But writing code? Eh, I never enjoyed that. Now with agents I can kinda do exactly what I like, plan, write in natural langue and then do code review.
