I used Stelo from Dexcom with my Oura Ring, no prescription. I didn't really learn much, other than occasionally realizing I was cranky because of low blood sugar.
And yet the rest of the party falls in behind him.
Re:SpaceX Is Buying Cursor on Tuesday June 16, 2026 @01:24PM (#48558687)
Just setup my team with Cursor. They actually got back to me on an enterprise plan (Claude keeps ignoring me). Cloud Agents have been great for keeping multiple streams going at the same time. Adding in computer use has been great for actually testing out features and showing they work for PRs. Bugbot so far has been the best AI reviewer I've tested. Composer 2.5 is great, though still using Opus for planning.

I can do most of this with Claude Code, but there's definitely a cost in maintaining it for the whole team.

Car payment, insurance, parking, gas/electricity? Going to be over $400/mo in almost all cases in any of the cities Waymo is in.
Re:Agent Skill for TDD on Friday June 05, 2026 @05:02PM (#48418230)
This overall is pretty close to how I've set up my implementation skill. One thing I'm curious about is how well the analogies like "We don't make dinner in a dirty kitchen." work vs something a lot more straightforward. Any input OP?
Nice, this looks exactly like what I've been looking for. I tried Fly.io Sprites and it _almost_ got me there, but I got annoyed logging into my CC every new feature. Unfortunately I wound up going all in on Cursor Cloud Agents, which overall has been decent.
Amazing, this is exactly what I've been looking for a while now, especially the remote dev box part. I'll give it a try, thank you!

Re:Setting up a free *.city.state.us locality domain on Wednesday May 13, 2026 @02:53PM (#48125896)
I'm constantly annoyed how much trouble I have using a .health domain (looking at you T-Mobile). I can't imagine using this many subdomains off a .us.
Amusing that it's on a Tuesday again. TACO (Trump Always Chickens Out) Tuesday.
Re:Don't Wait for Claude on Friday March 27, 2026 @05:25PM (#47548469)
Not sarcastic at all! This is a novel way to handle something that's been in the back of my mind (managing a lot of agents successfully).
Re:Don't Wait for Claude on Friday March 27, 2026 @02:38PM (#47546581)
This looks absolutely wonderful. Is it possible to run against Claude remotely (e.g. on a VM?). Or should I ask Claude to add that?

A lot of us use software written by other people we have no reason to trust and we haven't reviewed - most of open source libraries.
Re:Apple Just Lost Me on Wednesday March 25, 2026 @10:51AM (#47518111)
My non-techie friends either barely notice Liquid Glass or go "ooo this is nice!". It has annoyed me on occasion, but I barely notice it any more. Much ado about nothing.
While Wisconsin was debating this, they also closed a bunch of DMVs and limited hours for other ones.

The WI constitution enshrines the ability to vote. So you may think it's silly and for 99% of people it may be silly, but if anyone is prevented from voting because there's not a reasonable way for them to get a license, their rights are being infringed.

As a reader without a dog in this fight, I appreciate the comment and having the options. It's pretty common on HN.
Re:Parallel coding agents with tmux and Markdown specs on Monday March 02, 2026 @02:48PM (#47223129)
This is a really cool design, pretty similar to what I've built for implementation planning. I like how iterative it is and that the whole system lives just in markdown. The verify step is a great idea I hadn't made a command yet, thank you!

This seems like it'd be great for solo projects but starts to fall apart for a team with a lot more PRs and distributed state. Heck, I run almost everything in a worktree, so even there the state is distributed. Maybe moving some of the state/plans/etc to Linear et al solves that though.

Re:Show HN: Local-First Linux MicroVMs for macOS on Monday February 23, 2026 @10:57AM (#47124071)
Same, I really want to use sprites (for me and my whole team) but every time I try to set up, I run into weird issues. Last time I got in some state where trying to launch Claude froze the whole VM every time.

Re:OpenAI Should Build Slack on Sunday February 15, 2026 @01:25AM (#47021497)
"Remind me about this" creates a public task in the channel!?!? "Hey everyone! I'm choosing not to respond to this right now but don't want to forget!"

We're migrating off Slack because they jacked our prices by 40% this year. Our team used Google Chat for one week and revolted.

Re:Why I'm not worried about AI job loss on Friday February 13, 2026 @05:58PM (#47008997)
cloc says ours is ~350k LoC and agents are able to implement whole features from well designed requirement docs. But we've been investing in making our code more AI friendly, and things like Devin creating and using DeepWiki helps a lot too.

It's a good way to squeeze extra out of a bunch of people without actually raising prices.
Re:Amazon Closing Fresh and Go Stores on Tuesday January 27, 2026 @10:45PM (#46790810)
Damn. I just got an email that they'll be discontinuing the palm payment June 3. I've barely used Fresh and Go, but I use this at self checkout at Whole Foods all the time. Beats finding the code to scan and using Apple Pay.

> We're reaching out because you have an active Amazon One account. Amazon One palm authentication services will be discontinued at retail businesses on June 3, 2026. You can continue using Amazon One at participating locations until that date.

Or has biometric login turned on and didn't lock their phone behind a passcode before being arrested.
Same, it's so good for these little things. And once you start adding rules and context for the "how to add the change/feature flags", etc you get that 3 paragraphs down. Now our head of product is able to fire off small changes instead of asking a dev, making them context switch, etc. Devs still review but the loop is so much shorter.
Overall I've been really impressed with Devin. IMO it's the best tool for AI generating features if you know what you're looking for, have patterns to follow, etc. I suspect the context they build about your project helps a ton.

I was literally just working on a system, using Devin to do the review no less, to add a bunch of the rules we have that are outside of linting's capability to tackle the same kind of thing. Tools like Copilot and Qodo have very high noise ratios, but do occasionally catch legit bugs. Devin Review could be a great complement, and hopefully they'll make it so we can add our own rules soon.

I love this bracket. The first startup I worked (Triggr Health) at was in Chicago and we started a bracket for best wings. Sadly we never finished!

Did you ever find an answer? Other than copy/pasting my priv/pub keys into ~/.ssh/ I'm not sure.

I'm not familiar with Georgism, but employers and rent extractors (e.g. the majority stock owners) seem to be one and the same pretty often, at least in the US.
