- Use AI for Knowledge holes, fact check them, then accept them as solved. - Use agents to write code that is defined in a spec, review manually, accept them as solved.

Nothing more, nothing less

A HN comment cherry-picking a sentence? No way!

can a druggie stop using when the quality is too poor? I get your analogy, but it doesn't apply here

A niche reference almost no one gets, except one.

I feel like this article is more written towards non-techies. A decent amount of programmers have touched coding agents, and know it "kind of" does it's job. It's good enough for some tasks... I cannot be arsed to figure out how to edit a graph in Drupal, so I ask Claude. Claude fixes it, and it's not anymore broken than it already was. Win win.

However, that's where I stop my agent usage. I let ~~Claude~~ GLM do the following: - Fix tedious tasks that cost me more to figure out than I care for - Research something I'm not familiar with, and give me the facts it had found, and even then I end up looking at the source myself

They're not unimportant. It seems like very few people consider how much we're fucking up the ecological system that we need. But sure, money important and stuff.

I think i know two or three other people who are much, much more to blame... putting it on one dude is weird.

Never knew this project existed. Cool stuff!

I do have to be honest that Thunderbird just breaks from time to time. The Proton integration is also mediocre, but that's not their fault. Having to run an extra process just to mail feels weird.

Ask HN: Actions to take after session hijack?

ramon156 — Thu, 09 Apr 2026 14:25:00 +0000

As of this week, it seems my browser session has been hijacked. Both my Instagram and LinkedIn have been used for Crypto scams. All my accounts have 2FA, so I know it's not just password stealing. These are the actions ive taken so far:

- Logged out of all devices on said websites + GitHub. - Changed my Google password, and logged out of all my devices but my phone (I'm fairly confident my phone is not confiscated. I can't say the same about my Windows PC).

I want to figure out what has been sniffing my sessions, because I am not confident that wiping my Windows PC will make sure these sessions won't get sniffed again. I'm not strong enough of a CyberSecurity person to figure out where this tool could be.

I'll be the boogeyman, how does this compare to Figma's AI Design tool? I've had an easy experience with it, although it's just a GPT wrapper.

I wish we all collectively worked on one project, especially on an orchestrator tool, where the groundwork is important. people can build on it whatever they want, just dont re-invent the orchestrator!

> Why Install Orange Juice?

> Because Hacker News is great, but repetitive UI friction adds up. Orange Juice keeps the original feel while removing the things that cost you time every day.

That does not convince me to use your app? This is like calling someone's Kia shit and instead telling them to buy a Tesla, but just stating that it's better.

I'll stick to HN, thanks.

When I was 13-14 I believed a lot of bullshit. You might not remember so, and probably think you were very different and unique and special, but you too were not immune to propaganda.

The most changed file is the one people are afraid of touching?

ramon156 — Wed, 08 Apr 2026 08:28:22 +0000

I'm not insanely deep into frontend, I mostly just pick up React and call it a day, but it seems like this is also over-engineered?

I've seen vanilla JS before, and I just know I wouldn't want to do the housekeeping that comes with it. People claim it's less work because it' simpler, but I fully expect myself to rewrite the thing at least twice, only to give up because I have no actual mental model anymore of how it works.

Could you elaborate what these usage monitors look like? I collect data locally and can easily show that cost per token has gone up in some of my sessions
