This is the goal behind Devin Fusion, pretty good results so far I think.

Looks like the answer is no, it did in fact label them a SCR https://www.axios.com/2026/02/27/anthropic-pentagon-supply-c...

Does this mean the pentagon backed down from the SCR threat?

I feel like a lot of the comments here are focused on HN part of the problem, but I would imagine if you didn’t have HN you’d have something else to distract yourself with.

I don’t have an answer, but I know of a small minority of SWEs that suffer deeply from this.

The philosophies aren’t related beyond the fact that EA seems to view making as much money as possible a virtue if you use the money effectively, and the crypto space has happened to be the place where people are making the most money the fastest.

Neither. I think he’s looking for someone with a spare room in NYC where they can both come and go as they please.

So on any given day there are four possibilities both in NYC, both in SF, OP in NYC && roommate in SF, and roommate in SF && OP in NYC

It’s a pretty interesting concept, not one I’ve considered before, but one I imagine there would be interest in.

Can you give some reqs on what your monitoring system looks like?

I've been wanting to monitor our house's air quality for a while, but usually get put off looking at how poorly most affordable air quality monitors are reviewed.

Also, what metrics are most important? There's monitoring out there for pm2.5, pm10, HCHO, CO2, AQI, TVOC, etc, it's a bit of an alphabet soup.

Bloom's "The Western Canon" tries to answer this question.

I think you've articulated a dimension of programming that I've increasingly been observing and discussing with other engineers.

Do you happen to know a name for (or any language to describe) this kind of spectrum of problem solving where one end tends to pre-emptively encompass as many edge cases and future versions as possible, while the other focuses solely on the most obvious use case initially, adding in each edge case in successive versions of a "working" product (where working is used very loosely (i.e. single pixel on a screen is a "working" initial version))?

I definitely fall into the latter category, and find it very frustrating to work with engineers who want to chat edge cases that are days, weeks, or even months away from being relevant in my eyes. I would like to understand their thinking and this space of meta-problem solving better, but I'm not really sure what to call what we're talking about.

Ya, I meant more of non-gaming commercial purposes.
