Agents really do not care at all how "nice" a language is. You only need to be picky with language if a human is going to be working with the code. I get the impression that is not the use case here though

From the title I thought there was some massive Hashicorp/IBM boondoggle. But no. Just crypto being crypto.

I'm probably 10 years out of date. Are ethereum smart contracts still a thing? I'm sure you could deploy one of those for every agent session to handle the notifications

This project very most definitely has significant AI contributions. Don't care though. AI can work wonders in skilled hands and I'm looking forward to using this project

Just want to say upfront: this mindset is completely baffling to me. Someone gives you a hammer. You've never seen one before. They tell you it's a great new tool with so many ways to use it. So you hook a bag on both ends and use

I don't see any problems with either of those framings. It really doesn't matter at all whether these things are "truly intelligent". They give me functioning code that meets my requirements. If standard fuzzers or searc

You need to be telling it to create reproduction test cases first and iterate until it's truly solved. There's no need for you to manually be testing that sort of thing. The key to success with agents is tight, correct feedback lo

Terminals already solved how to do this decades ago: pagers. Write the full content to a file and have less display it. That's a single "render" you do once and write to a file. Your TUI code spawns `less <file>` and wa

I had that for a few months and cancelled. They have minutely rate limits as well so you get 3-4 hyperspeed responses and then a 45 second pause waiting for the throttling to let your next request through. And then, depending on what you&#x

`br` is still massively larger than necessary for the feature set. I didn't mention above but I made https://github.com/wedow/ticket as my beads replacement back at the end of December. I have zero reach compared

Task management is fundamentally straightforward and yet workflow specific enough that I recommend everyone just spend a few hours building their own tools at this point. Beads is a nightmare.

I'm really struggling to think of a scenario where I would want to do something like that. What use case do you have in mind?

FWIW, this will be part of the core library in the next version instead of a separate extension. https://four.htmx.org/htmx-4/#built-in-streaming-response-su...

Connecting to localhost still involves the network stack and a fair bit of overhead. SQLite is embedded in your program's address space. You call its functions directly like any other function. Depending on your language, there is prob

Aside from losing the loop (the whole point of the command), why the double `cat`?

It's explained under the July 2025 heading with link to the blog post where it was first shared. The key bit is right under that though. Ralph is literally just this: while :; do cat PROMPT.md | npx --yes @sourcegraph/amp ;

I was disappointed to see that this is still 10x the code needed for the feature set and that it still insists on duplicating state into a SQLite index for such minuscule amounts of data. I've seen 25-30 similar efforts to make a Beads

Beads was phenomenal back in October when it was released. Unfortunately it has somehow grown like a cancer. Now 275k lines of Go for task tracking? And no human fully knows what it is all doing. Steve Yegge is quite proud to say he's

I do wonder if C programmers ever asked that of Python devs back in the day.

After a certain experience level though, I think most of us get to the point of knowing what that difference in quality actually matters. Some seniors love to bikeshed PRs all day because they can do it better but generally that activity

This is such a tired response at this point. People are under zero obligation to release their work to the public. Simon actually publishes and writes about a remarkable amount of the side projects he builds with AI. The rest of us just bui

I've had Opus 4.5 hand rolling CUDA kernels and writing a custom event loop on io_uring lately and both were done really well. Need to set up the right feedback loops so it can test its work thoroughly but then it flies.

I've actually built up a set of Claude Skills for creating and using tickets. Currently overhauling them based on what I've found to be most effective. Will probably publish those in a week or two when I've nailed down what I

Great call out. The agents will set those on `create` calls but don't typically reference them afterwards. I have a fairly robust orchestration layer built on top of this tool that relies heavily on those fields though. But without tha

It really would. That's on my TODO list for next weekend. I may actually make a slimmer one for that use case though. There are a number of commands here that are really only useful at the orchestration layer and would be mostly noise
