news.ycombinator.com Some Random Dude On The Internet 2025-11-10 06:59:02

This post details my experiences creating software with LLM coding agents, emphasizing that what you do with AI agents is ‘creation’, not just 'coding,' and sharing what worked for me. This is not 'The One True Path To AI Success.' tl;dr: I’m not a professional developer, just a hobbyist with aspirations I wanted to accomplish a coding project beyond my skill level and have been experimenting with agentic coding tools for several months (spoiler: mostly success) You should use Anthropic’

From M1 MacBook to Arch Linux: A month-long experiment that became permanenent

I switched my five-year-old MacBook Pro M1 Max for a cheap (comparable) Lenovo ThinkBook 14 G7 ARP (AMD) laptop, running Linux (Arch btw, or better, Omarchy. And I am having a blast. But not everything is perfect. But let’s not get ahead of ourselves. This is a short recap after using it for one month on and off (due to repair 😅), and the last 2 weeks full time.

The US government is taking an $8.9 billion stake in Intel

engadget.com Unknown 2025-11-10 16:26:45

President Donald Trump says the US government is taking a 10 percent stake in chip maker Intel. Trump shared the news during a press conference on Friday, though an official announcement is still forthcoming, Reuters reports. News of a plan to convert Intel's previously promised CHIPS Act funding into equity in the company was first reported earlier in August. A meeting between Intel CEO Lip-Bu Tan and Trump following the President's call for Tan to resign seems to be the source of the deal. "H

What does it mean that the Federation has its own news networks, alongside a host of interstellar media organizations? What does freedom of information mean in a universe that has Starfleet?

The issue of anti-cheat on Linux (2024)

The number of people choosing Linux as their primary operating system to play games has been slowly but steadily going up, at least according to the Steam hardware survey. This is most likely because of the Steam Deck release and the increasingly obnoxious features being added to Windows.

Most Powerful Fast Radio Burst Ever Detected Hits Telescopes Across North America

Now, a team of scientists has detected the brightest-ever FRB and finally pinpointed its origin to a nearby galaxy. Researchers have long suspected that FRBs are the result of highly energetic and violent events, like clashes between neutron stars. But even though they can generate more energy
