Re:Understanding Runtime Governance for Enterprise AI Deployment on Thursday September 24, 2026 @10:03AM (#49830783)
This space is probably much harder than you think. While enterprise AI adoption is an inevitable trend, and the demand for data sensitivity and privacy protection is very real, deeply integrating AI with actual enterprise business data comes with a massive number of hurdles.

Take the phenomenon of "Shadow AI," for instance: 1. When AI tools are used across different departments, how do you prevent sensitive data from leaking? 2. With departments adopting all sorts of disparate tools, how do you actually achieve centralized governance and control?

Although Microsoft has rolled out an AI governance framework, I think practical implementation remains an uphill battle. Their approach isn't hard to grasp—it essentially boils down to logging activities before and after an Agent executes tasks to enable traceability, but that doesn't solve the core problem.

So, if you want to build a product in this space, I believe it's going to be extremely difficult unless you can come up with a genuinely new approach that truly resolves these pain points.

Otherwise, jumping back and forth while you're reading the code is a real pain.

If you're using AI to write code, IDE features don't really seem that important anymore.

Does ST support opening a repo on a remote server? The last time I used it was back in my freshman year of college, and I haven't touched it since. Does anyone happen to know?
Re:Show HN: Hibi – An open-source obsidian alternative on Monday September 21, 2026 @11:13AM (#49788361)
The most important feature of Obsidian is how its plugin system is designed. I just had a look, and your mainnet design is still pretty rudimentary right now, but maybe that's just because the project is in its very early stages.

I think if you don't mind, you should post your handle so people can see what you actually did. I use X too, but I almost never run into their algorithm's limits.
Re:Ask HN: How do you interview devs in a post-AI world? on Sunday September 20, 2026 @09:26AM (#49775654)
That sounds like a really great idea. Would you be open to sharing more about how the tool is designed? Are there any open-source or commercial tools like that out there right now?

Show HN: PinAllWindows – sync pinned apps across Chrome windows

https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/pinallwindows/fakbifeeblnopdhicpmhhmcdhmefphjp

I work with two monitors and keep one Chrome window open on each screen. The problem was that Chrome manages pinned tabs separately for every window. My two windows would gradually end up with different pinned apps, and every new window required setting them up again. After trying nearly every Chrome tab manager I could find, I realized most were designed around sessions, tab search, or saved...

Re:The AI tool discovery problem on Tuesday June 02, 2026 @09:31PM (#48378669)
There are some product recommendation websites, Twitter, or Reddit forums. Plus, it takes time for people to find out about it - you need to keep showing up on various platforms.
Continuously and deeply reading and understanding high-quality open-source code repositories - these resources are easy to find, but they require patience. With the help of LLMs, this process will be much easier than before.

Re:Mini Micro Fantasy Computer on Wednesday May 27, 2026 @07:07AM (#48292383)
I think that's really cool. I wonder when this started development?
I've had similar thoughts before, and I've seen some frameworks used to assign different tasks to various agents so they can work together to complete a job. But let me be honest, with the improvement in model capabilities and the increasing cost of maintaining these frameworks, there's less and less room left for such tools to survive. The best solution might be to use a single agent and train its preferences over time.

What coding agents are supported right now?

For developers without design skills, how do you leverage AI for front end dev?

The best tool I've found so far is Open Design, which you can combine with any of the vibe coding tools you've been using for a long time, but it's still hard to collaborate on long term projects that involve multiple parties. I'd like to ask you all, if you're working on a formal complex UI related project, what's your workflow like? How much Ai is involved?

Re:Amazon Web Services – Four Years and Out on Sunday May 24, 2026 @02:49AM (#48255057)
Our company also requires everyone to use more AI-related tools, and I don't think there's anything wrong with that. But the quality of work produced using these tools really depends on the individual's ability. Some people don't put in much effort, and the results they produce are really sloppy, which bothers me a lot.
Re:Ask HN: What's New in Crypto? on Saturday May 23, 2026 @06:19AM (#48246446)
Agent payment will be an important development direction for crypto in the future. Compared to traditional fiat payments, digital currencies have some inherent advantages.
Re:Ask HN: Anyone else struggling with AI and work? on Friday May 22, 2026 @03:54AM (#48233187)
I share your concerns - I'm worried that my software development skills will become completely worthless in the future. What I'm thinking right now is that I need to spend more time on product experience and interpersonal communication. These soft skills won't be replaced by AI anytime soon. The barrier to getting into software development is pretty low nowadays, so you don't need to learn theoretical stuff like computer principles or compiler fundamentals like kids who come from traditional computer science backgrounds. So relying solely on software development skills won't lead to much success in the long run. You need some soft skills, like being proficient in a certain business domain or having a higher level of software aesthetic.
I'm really curious, if you use open-source tools like Codex. And you actually go through the source code carefully to make sure there are no backdoors, doesn't that mean you can use it without worrying about your data getting leaked—at least to some degree?
Re:Note-taking software,Novel ideas on Monday May 18, 2026 @04:22AM (#48176785)
I’ve had the same issue too. What I finally found is that the most elegant solution is to stop editing the same note across multiple clients.
In fact, there are quite a few places that can do this. In the city where I live, Shanghai, China, the security is very good and the per capita income is quite high. You can just walk into any coffee shop in the city, leave your laptop there, and then leave to do something else, and it won't be lost, I've tried it countless times.
