> You really have to accept that you may never find someone to properly get into this mindset though

I think this is only because the bulk of the advice in this area is to tell men to become more attractive (cf. "looksmaxxing"), change hobbies, attitudes, etc. That, or resenting women. Most would rather live on hope than fundamentally change their outlook.

If you have Nix, you can run it using:

    nix run github:juspay/agent-distro
https://agent-distro.nixos.asia/ brings auto-updating coding agents managed by Nix, along with https://agent-plugins.org/ based profiles.

> Just do other things you like and don't worry about women. Relationships bring heartache and grief a good percentatge of the time anyway. Being engaged in things you like doing will bring you into contact with others and friendships or more may develop. But don't do them with that expectation.

I can confirm that this is how I am generally happy in life as a single. Underrated advice.

Keep Fable, but have it orchestrate other agents running different models (could be Opus, Grok or Kimi K3).

This is my current workflow: https://x.com/sridca/status/2093354491965735091

I even let Fable choose the appropriate model for the task.

Glad someone noticed this.

And that is the crux of the whole issue here, as explained in https://sipping-delicious-tea.pages.dev/

> you can get access to these models with unmetered tokens with SuperGrok [$USD 300/year]

Could you support this statement with an official reference?

Probably so they thought it would circumvent insults and other wily rhetoric from those emotionally sensitive on this subject ... and yet, going by your own use of "idiot" on a website enabling otherwise intelligent discussions, it would seem that was futile consideration on OP's part.
Re:Agents need control flow, not more prompts on Saturday May 09, 2026 @09:33AM (#48074843)
I created https://agency.srid.ca/ to achieve some of this but from within a single agent CLI session

Here's a recent PR created end-to-end using `/do` workflow of agency: https://github.com/srid/emanote/pull/719

Re:Ask HN: What Are You Working On? (March 2026) on Monday March 09, 2026 @06:20PM (#47316463)
I started working on an "anti-habituation" motivational reminder app:

https://appreciate.srid.ca/

https://github.com/srid/Appreciate

(Note: Only the macOS version is tested extensively at the moment)

If you are using Nix, there's also https://github.com/srid/sandnix that works on Linux (landrun) and macOS (sandbox-exec).

I'm curious to hear what benefits you think can be gained from avoiding this.

Yea, I think it is worth waiting for M6 just for OLED alone.

Yea, and once you zoom out - being able to intuitively see the temperature all around the planet just creates this sense of appreciation for where we are. On top of it, one can't help but notice that we are floating nowhere in particular in this infinite and eternal universe ...

Does it even work?

I ask becaue it considers @lilycoy__ (an obvious AI generated account, as quoted by Robin Hanson <https://x.com/robinhanson/status/2025332066552819782>) to be "100% human"

Re:How I use Claude Code: Separation of planning and execution on Saturday February 21, 2026 @08:17PM (#47107048)
Regarding inline notes, I use a specific format in the `/plan` command, by using th `ME:` prefix.

https://github.com/srid/AI/blob/master/commands/plan.md#2-pl...

It works very similar to Antigravity's plan document comment-refine cycle.

HN has been like that with anything Elon Musk related. You may have better luck with https://www.themotte.org/
