Ask HN: Do you struggle with flow state when using AI assisted coding tools?

It's been extremely difficult for me to achieve a flow state while using tools like `claude code` because I have to wait after every interaction. I get easily distracted, my mind wonders and I find myself reading HN and browsing the internet. I'm more productive in most of the tasks I need to do but in some of these detours I loose long periods of times without even noticing. I've tried keeping the console open and reading through the AI agent process but that gets me nervous after a few intera

When will Apple announce the iPhone 17 event?

The most likely iPhone 17 event date is now the rumored iPhone 17 event date. No surprises there. But when should we expect Apple to actually confirm the date of its next big product reveal? iPhone 17 event in five weeks Save for a few exceptions, Apple typically announces new flagship iPhone models in the second week of September each year. This year appears to be following the pattern with an event rumored for Tuesday, September 9th. If the usual pattern sticks, we should expect iPhone 17 pr

BioShock 4 loses direction again as 2K fires top leadership

Facepalm: Take-Two's BioShock 4 has been stuck in development hell for over a decade. Now, executives have fired the studio head, demoted the creative director, and ordered a full rewrite, putting the project's future in doubt. Fans have long wondered when the game will launch - but maybe the real question is: will it? Take-Two is overhauling the long-delayed next installment in the BioShock series after an internal review left top executives at 2K Games dissatisfied with the game's progress. T

I asked four former friends why we stopped speaking (2023)

On a warm July evening, I dove into bed and grabbed my phone, giddy and anxious. As I scrolled through TikTok, attempting to calm my nerves, a Google Calendar notification flashed on the screen: “VIDEO CALL WITH SIMONE.” Before I could swipe the reminder away, Simone FaceTimed me. I attempted to rehearse my greeting as the call buffered: Should I keep it cool with a, “Hey, what’s good?” No, that sounds cold. What about a Keke Palmer-esque, “Girl!” No, that’s doing too much. “Good evening?” No,

Expert Says Collapse of Human Civilization Looks Like the Most Likely Scenario

New research is warning that the most likely outcome is that human civilization is poised for collapse. As The Guardian reports, a sweeping new historical survey that analyzes 5,000 years and the collapse of more than 400 societies makes the case that we're in for a rude awakening. "We can’t put a date on Doomsday, but by looking at the 5,000 years of [civilisation], we can understand the trajectories we face today — and self-termination is most likely," Luke Kemp, research fellow at the Cente

Microsoft tops $4T in valuation: Great news for MSFT, not so great for workers

If you own Microsoft stock, you’ve got to be happy. Microsoft’s latest financial results for the quarter ending June 30, 2025 were robust: Revenue reached $76.4 billion (up 18% year-over-year), with net income at $27.2 billion (up 24%).

Mozilla warns of phishing attacks targeting add-on developers

Mozilla has warned browser extension developers of an active phishing campaign targeting accounts on its official AMO (addons.mozilla.org) repository. Mozilla's add-on platform hosts over 60,000 browser extensions and more than 500,000 themes used by tens of millions of users worldwide. According to Mozilla's advisory, these phishing emails are impersonating the AMO team and claim that the targeted developer accounts require updates to maintain access to development features.

How Python grew from a language to a community

When it first launched in 1991, Python “wasn’t lucrative,” remembers long-time Python community organizer Paul Everitt (now a Python and web developer advocate at JetBrains). “But we believed in it. The passion was there — we were doing good in the world.” Yet surprisingly, Python traveled a bumpy early road on its way to becoming the world’s #1 most popular programming language, safely ensconced in the nonprofit Python Software Foundation that would help it grow through the years. It’s a stor

Writing a basic service for GNU Guix

According to the Shepherd Services documentation, the start and stop fields of shepherd-service take G-Expressions. But what's a g-expression? Well, because Guix uses Scheme for both higher-level actions–like defining packages–and lower-level actions–like building derivations generated by packages– it needs a faculty for embedding lower-level code in higher-level code. So in the start field of wesnoth-shepherd-service : (start #~(make-forkexec-constructor/container (list #$(file-append package

Software developers use AI more than ever, but trust it less

The big picture: Software developers are increasingly weaving AI tools into their work, but such rapid adoption hasn't come without confusion or conflict. They and their managers are still trying to work out when these tools help, when they hurt, and how to integrate them without creating more problems than they solve. In its annual poll of 49,000 professional developers, Stack Overflow found that 80 percent use AI tools in their work in 2025, a share that has surged in recent years. Despite th

Twentyseven 1.0

Twentyseven 1.0.0 Posted on August 1, 2025 Twelve years of Haskell Twentyseven is a Rubik’s cube solver and one of my earliest projects in Haskell. The first commit dates from January 2014, and version 0.0.0 was uploaded on Hackage in March 2016. I first heard of Haskell in a course on lambda calculus in 2013. A programming language with lazy evaluation sounded like a crazy idea, so I gave it a try. Since then, I have kept writing in Haskell as my favorite language. For me it is the ideal bl

The clock is ticking: Google has 14 days to make major changes to the Play Store

Edgar Cervantes / Android Authority TL;DR Google has 14 days to enact the Play Store changes needed to resolve its antitrust issues. The tech giant has now filed an emergency stay with the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals. The company believes that making these changes in such a short amount of time will put users and developers at risk. On Thursday, the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals upheld the ruling from the original Epic v. Google lawsuit, giving Epic Games the big win it was looking for.

HomeKit Weekly: Tracking local weather in HomeKit is simple with the Eve Weather

Local weather is one of the most underrated variables in Homekit automation. Over the past few years, I’ve used sensors for everything from knowing when to drip faucets in freezing weather to adjusting the sprinkler schedule with the Eve Aqua on hot days. The Eve Weather has been part of my setup for a while now, and with its 2024 Matter upgrade from last summer, it’s now even more useful across more platforms.

Inside Jeffrey Epstein’s Forgotten AI Summit

In 2002, artificial intelligence was still in winter. Despite decades of effort, dreams of bestowing computers with humanlike cognition and real-world understanding had not materialized. To look for a way forward, a small group of scientists gathered for “The St. Thomas Common Sense Symposium.” AI pioneer Marvin Minsky was the central presence, along with his protégé Pushpinder Singh. After the symposium, Minsky, Singh, and renowned philosopher Aaron Sloman published a paper on the group’s ideas

Long Term Support

Long Term Support The intent of the developers is to support SQLite through the year 2050. At this writing, 2050 is still 25 years in the future. Nobody knows what will happen in that time, and we cannot absolutely promise that SQLite will be viable or useful that far out. But we can promise this: we plan as if we will be supporting SQLite until 2050. That long-term outlook affects our decisions in important ways. Cross-platform Code → SQLite runs on any platform with an 8-bit byte, two's com
