May I ask what are some of methods you’re using for this level of productivity?

People already rebuilt Claude Code in Rust after the Claude Code leak, it's on github as claw code (and other variants)

So what's best low cost coding agent these days? Kimi 2.6? Qwen's latest closed model? Composer 2.5? DeepSeek?

Pretty sure Quebec would have to break apart in order to separate too

If you want to understand why Alberta is holding a referendum on whether they should hold another separate legally-binding referendum in the future, you have to look at the recent court case where a judge in Alberta ruled that one of the two main petitions wasn’t allowed to proceed (The one that specifically called for a legally-binding referendum). The judges stated reason is that First Nations were not adequately consulted (interesting how this never came up in the Quebec referendums). As a result, the premier of Alberta suggested that until they appeal that court case that they cannot have a legally binding referendum. As such, for now, all they cannot do is a non-legally binding referendum on whether they should hold a legally binding referendum once they court case becomes resolved.

It's more like the free market, but with all of the market failures, parasites and bad actors that implies too

I suspect the symbol has deeper roots than that, though you are likely right about the snake venom being used then to treat illness.

Cool, simple demo that concisely shows the value. I’ll give it a whirl. Cheers and good luck, seems great

oh-my-pi harness fixes many of these, like subagents

New comment by canadiantim in "Ask HN: Who is using OpenClaw?"

canadiantim — Wed, 15 Apr 2026 21:22:55 +0000

Openclaw simply makes the effectiveness of working with claude code and similar available to a broader audience that hadn't been exposed to it before. Sure Cowork does similar, but I believe that's still why Openclaw became so popular.

If you're just saving it into sqlite, why is server even needed?

Not to mention the tricky question of what happens to your consciousness during and after this process?

Most likely they're just preserving the tissue, but not the consciousness

No worries if it's untenable or too much though, but I'll keep an eye on the commend thread in case!

For my part, I'm currently using oh-my-opencode harness with various skills extracted and tailored from superpowers / simonw / matt pocock. Working well enough so far, but keen to really evolve the skill flow and how they connect and are used in coordination with the various subagents.

That would be awesome. I believe with AI it's all about tailoring everything to your specific workflow and style, especially anything to do with the dev environment.
