I too found this extremely interesting, jotted some notes here: https://dennisy.me/notes/programs-as-weights

Will keep noodling on this, I feel there must be ways to scale this up!

That would be interesting.

Do you feel most of the speed upgrade will come from the software or hardware side?

Thanks for the replies!

Would love to swap notes at some point if you are up for it?

Hey!

This looks great and congratulations on the launch.

I am also building in this space and wanted to get your views on a few things.

1. Are you building your own connectors to 3p systems? 2. How are you finding the sales motion? I found people to get the problem fast, but actually converting them seems rather slow.

Good luck!

Great read, I feel many of the topics discussed firsthand.

It gives me some relief to know there are others out there who struggle with some similar issues, but I was hoping the piece may offer some guidance, but sadly I do not feel it has.

Very cool! Not GitHub repo?

New comment by dennisy in "Show HN: TikTok but for scientific papers"

dennisy — Mon, 11 May 2026 18:07:45 +0000

I love this and wanted to build this - but https://www.alphaxiv.org/ already exists, and it gets no social action (hardly any papers have comments), so this makes me doubtful about this.

I am interested to hear if anyone knows why the format may not resonate with researchers or those reading papers in general?

My own reason is that to get value from a "social" site the number of interactions has to be high and of a fast speed for people to continue to engage, which is maybe not possible to hit on research papers.

New comment by dennisy in "Show HN: GETadb.com – every GET request creates a DB"

dennisy — Fri, 08 May 2026 20:04:43 +0000

This is very cool!

But why do we need this? An agent can just have a local DB using SQLite for example.

Ask HN: Which memory systems are you using in your agents?

dennisy — Fri, 08 May 2026 13:01:44 +0000

Are you using an open source version, hosted product or maybe you have rolled your own?

What is working, what is missing, and how are you evaluating the usefulness of memory for your agentic projects?

New comment by dennisy in "Open source memory layer so any AI agent can do what Claude.ai and ChatGPT do"

dennisy — Sat, 25 Apr 2026 09:38:50 +0000

This is a fair question, but not one I feel we can let people self answer.

I doubt many people will honestly admit they did no design, testing and that they believe the code is sub par.

It does give me an idea that maybe we need a third party system which can try and answer some of the questions you are asking… of course it too would be LLM driven and quite subjective.

dennisy — Sat, 25 Apr 2026 07:45:15 +0000

True! But this is a very naive implementation, a proper implementation could surpass these challenges.

Congratulations on the launch!

There is lots of competition in this space, how is your tool different?

dennisy — Sat, 25 Apr 2026 07:01:49 +0000

I think this used to be the trick, but now with AI it is such a general purpose technology I am not sure that makes sense. Users can “niche down” in a generic app, using prompts and configs.

Fair play for launching this, it looks like a neat project.

However I feel it will be an uphill battle competing with OpenAI and Anthropic, I doubt your harness can be better since they see so much traffic through theirs.

So this is for those who care about the harness running on their own infra? Not sure why anyone would since the LLM call means you are sending your code to the lab anyway.

Sorry I don’t want to sound negative, I am just trying to understand the market for this.

Good luck!

I feel for the startups sweating each one of these frontier lab releases.

How many more are thinking “am I next?”

So what are you suggesting do not allow companies to sell such tools?

I think most people would agree.

However it is less clear on how to do this, people mostly take the easiest path.
