Re:Ask HN: What are you working on? (September 2026) on Monday September 14, 2026 @10:13AM (#49697223)
I'm working on a native macOS AI-harness apps to help me be more productive while managing an ever-growing list of projects and apps:

- Cupertino - (https://cupertino.mgcrea.io/), which lets an agent into your Apple-ecosystem data without handing it the keys.

- Bastion - (https://bastion.mgcrea.io/), which runs each MCP server once for every client on the Mac, with credentials in the Keychain and every call logged.

And currently working on Armada - (https://armada.mgcrea.io), soon to be released, to give me better visibility on my fleet of agents and provide a higher level layer to interact with.

Mostly the official Claude extension in VS Code, with many windows open: one per project I'm working on, plus one per group of projects, basically the parent folder for cross-project refactoring. One window holds all the AppStore apps, another all the MCP servers, and so on.

Then I'm basically smashing VS Code's quickSwitchWindow shortcut to rotate through the sessions round-robin. It's clearly not perfect, I'm obviously not maximizing each session, but since I'm close to hitting my rate limits anyway I haven't looked for further optimization. Maybe I should.

It appears that issues with payment setup were delaying relief efforts, as indicated by this tweet: https://x.com/elonmusk/status/1841207137420132549.
Looks like there is still a lot to discover about climate change.

Some consider it some kind of proof that there are geothermal forces that could be stronger than greenhouse gases out there (eg. https://twitter.com/ethicalskeptic/status/168245895009925120...). Pretty interesting.

Does not start after install for me on a fresh windows 11 install. Something about module not found […]/index.node
One tool you could use to design the network, check line of sight, potential bandwidth, etc. is this nice Ubiquiti tool: https://ispdesign.ui.com

Clearly not worthy of being discussed on HN, groupthink at it’s best!
What I find especially amusing is that it is described as if Sam was somehow a genius for playing while talking in a meeting. It takes literally no intellectual effort to play a game once you’ve played it a lot, it’s like driving or eating. Only thing it shows is probably a high level of uncontrolled boredom/stress/anxiety that had to get out somehow. Hard to believe the “experts” at Sequoia and co fell for it.

I do! Digital pin protection and slick design without handle is an upgrade for me.
Can’t help myself from thinking that this insane zero-covid policy is more about the party conditioning its population for a coming war than fighting a virus.
