You want something like Gerrit.

New comment by trashburger in "Show HN: Klaw.sh – Kubernetes for AI agents"

trashburger — Mon, 16 Feb 2026 01:58:04 +0000

It is under a license that prevents using the source in any way you choose:

    You may not use the klaw source code to operate a multi-tenant managed
    service (Software as a Service) where the primary value proposition is
    providing AI agent orchestration capabilities to third parties, unless
    you have obtained explicit written authorization from each::labs.

It's source-available, which is cool, but don't muddy the waters.

I'm noticing a distinct lack of Guy Standing sitting in the "Weird and wonderful Wikipedia" section.

Call it larping, being performative etc. but it is a concept as old as time. People emulate the interface of successful people without actually having the implementation of successful people.

New comment by trashburger in "How uv got so fast"

trashburger — Sat, 27 Dec 2025 16:33:26 +0000

> Ignoring requires-python upper bounds. When a package says it requires python<4.0, uv ignores the upper bound and only checks the lower. This reduces resolver backtracking dramatically since upper bounds are almost always wrong. Packages declare python<4.0 because they haven’t tested on Python 4, not because they’ll actually break. The constraint is defensive, not predictive.

This is clearly LLM-generated and the other bullet points have the same smell. Please use your own words.

New comment by trashburger in "Go is portable, until it isn't"

trashburger — Sat, 13 Dec 2025 12:13:17 +0000

Cross-compiling doesn't work because you're not defining your dependencies correctly and relying on the existence of things like system libraries and libc. Use `zig cc` with Go which will let you compile against a stub Glibc, or go all the way and use a hermetic build system (you should do this always anyhow).

New comment by trashburger in "Building a Copying GC for the Plush Programming Language"

trashburger — Fri, 05 Dec 2025 20:51:23 +0000

For the GC it sounds like they don’t have generations which means copying long-lived objects needlessly due to the generational hypothesis. Interesting idea with the mailbox allocator, but how do these two allocators interact? Is the heap non-regional, or are they allocating into separate regions?

I would very much like for him not to ignore the negativity, given that, you know, they are breaking the entire fucking Internet every time something like this happens.

Show HN: Papertoy: run a Shadertoy shader as an animated Wayland wallpaper

trashburger — Thu, 24 Jul 2025 19:13:47 +0000

Hi HN! This is a project I did a while back in a late night coding session to learn about Wayland and how it works with EGL/OpenGL. You can give it a path to a GLSL shader that expects the Shadertoy API (uniforms/inputs etc.) and it will render it to the Wayland display of your choice. Try it out and let me know what you think!

trashburger — Wed, 23 Jul 2025 22:50:01 +0000

A lot of claims about being "privacy first", but is there any way to actually verify these claims? For example they claim "no logs", but unless I log into their servers and personally check there is no way I can be sure, right? Is there something I'm missing?

Windsurf is now owned by OpenAI so Anthropic is playing politics and not giving them access (they're pulling put all existing models in ~5 days too).
