Ask HN: Do you still do pair programming in this agentic age?

Andugal — Thu, 27 Aug 2026 07:49:11 +0000

If you do: - What's the setup: two humans + one agent, or two humans + two agents - What do you actually pair on? - Do you find it more (or less) valuable than before? - And many more questions...

So DownDetector is down, but DownDetectorDownDetector does not detect it... We probably need one more DownDetector. (no)

New comment by Andugal in "Launch HN: Chonkie (YC X25) – Open-Source Library for Advanced Chunking"

Andugal — Mon, 09 Jun 2025 16:57:37 +0000

Congratulations for the launch!

You said that Chonkie works with multiple vector stores. I was wondering what RAG database HN uses? Do you need a specialized one (like Chroma) or is Postgres just fine?

> I’m actually having a really hard time thinking of an AI feature other than coding AI feature that I actually enjoy.

If you attend a lot of meetings, having an AI note-taker take notes for you and generate a structured summary, follow-up email, to-do list, and more will be an absolute game changer.

(Disclaimer, I'm the CTO of Leexi, an AI note-taker)

New comment by Andugal in "Ask HN: Would you still choose Ruby on Rails for a startup in 2025?"

Andugal — Wed, 29 Jan 2025 11:55:04 +0000

I am the CTO of https://www.leexi.ai/ which is powered by a Rails API (Vue/Nuxt in the frontend).

I chose Rails 3 years ago when I started coding it at night because it was the stack I knew best. And I don't regret it, quite the opposite.

We now have thousands of customers using it daily and it has been nothing but a joy to create and maintain this app.
