We're grateful for the overwhelming support from HN and our community on Discord - seeing nearly 2k stars and many open issues in such a short time has been incredible.
lume is released under the flexible MIT license and will always remain so to encourage community contributions.
Core features:
- Run native macOS VMs in 1 command: `lume run macos-sequoia-xcode:latest`
- Prebuilt images on https://ghcr.io/trycua (macOS Sequoia, Ubuntu ARM)
- Local API server to manage VMs programmatically
- A python SDK on [github.com/trycua/pylume](https://github.com/trycua/pylume)
What our first users say:
- ‘Something like Lume should have been a commodity in the ecosystem much earlier. Thanks for going ahead to change that.’
- ‘I’ve been using Colima for a year now to run desktop docker workloads. It would be nice to be able to remove the extra layer of qemu they use.‘
- ‘Looks interesting! I’ve been playing with UTM to do aarch64 VMs and I even cooked up a little Sinatra server to do some AppleScript to reboot the VM and do some other things on the host. I’ll look at this as a more robust solution as to be completely honest, UTM has left a lot to be desired at least for virtualization.‘
Future directions (as asked by our community and design partners):
- Docker-compatible interface for macOS VMs
- VM suspension and Snapshot management
- GPU passthrough (with Paravirtualized Graphics)
- Flexible VM, Images and IPSW locations
- Sharing USB devices
- Remote SSH commands and more UI automation features

UI-TARS is a next-generation native GUI agent model designed to interact seamlessly with graphical user interfaces (GUIs) using human-like perception, reasoning, and action capabilities. Unlike traditional modular frameworks, UI-TARS integrates all key components—perception, reasoning, grounding, and memory—within a single vision-language model (VLM), enabling end-to-end task automation without predefined workflows or manual rules.
UI-TARS brings together all four key components of CUA agents - perception, reasoning, grounding, and memory - into a single, unified vision-language model (VLM).
Let us know if you have any feedback, or would like to see anything added :)
What we are doing is to ask the candidate to have hands visible to the camera for the interview. But some systems are working with voice only and this will not be working in those cases.
Probably the best way would be to have the ChatGPT answer beforehand and confront it with what the candidate is saying?
It's made by a friend of mine who is working at Microsoft, and I think it's great to learn more about the field :)
Once you've been in a FAANG you can always go back. Now you have a few things to understand before jumping back at working on anything:
- Why you didn't like it? - Maybe it was your particular role, team, or colleague? - What would you love to do in life? - How can you move towards what you love?
If it is hunting for truffles, let it be and don't give a fuck about others' opinions. Do what you love, and life will be so much better for you.

He became an orphan at age 9.
Started working in factories at 14.
Started working in glasses factories at 16.
He built his own first at 27. Grew it from 0 to 6,000 employees.
Died while still being the CEO of the company aged 86 years old.
One of the best stories of perseverance, and doing hard things from nothing I've ever witnessed!
