I wish there were a way to sandbox apps with more granularity.

Very cool. Do two copyright infringements (one on each side of the adapter) cancel each other out? I really like it!

Ask HN: Vibe Coding over Easter?

from the ask-hn dept.

Hello HN!So, as coding has become something we're able to do via Telegram/WhatsApp, I assume many of us are doing it 'remotely' via their phones, while celebrating Easter with the family.How does that work for you? Are you distracted? How do you handle it? What "borders" are now needed?

Thank you for pointing out a problem that I had (which I do!), solving with Time Machine and trying to make myself commit more requently - and for providing a solution! Looks very cool, too. If I close the terminal I started --watch in, will the watch continue?

Writing this, I wanted to ask if the desktop app includes the CLI, but there it says it on your website :-) Thanks for thinking ahead so far, but then picking us up here and now so we can easily follow along into an unf* future!

Looking forward to try it.

Great project! It would be interesting to have a meta layer of AIs betting on the player LLMs

Not uncommon that people will knock on their heads if nothing wooden is in arm‘s reach. (Which - head of wood - which I always see as a nice little act of humility)

Until you invent a product or concept name that is taken by one of the users ;-)
