The Reality of Being a Man in Your 50s in South Korea

Trauma, Isolation, and Defying the Stereotypes In South Korea, turning 50 often marks a quiet but profound turning point for men—both native and foreign.

For foreign men, it can […]
Kimi K2.6 just beat Claude, GPT-5.5, and Gemini in a coding challenge

By Rohana Rezel I’m running the ongoing AI Coding Contest where I pit major language models against each other in real-time programming tasks with objective scoring. Day 12 was the Word Gem Puzzle. Ten models entered. The results were not what most people would have predicted. Kimi K2.6, an open-weights model from Chinese startup Moonshot […]
Open Source Does Not Imply Open Community

Open source software has existed long before the invention of the (D)VCS. The author likely hosted a barebones HTML webpage or a txt file describing the project. There definitely was an FTP server somewhere with tarballs. The author may have been reachable by email. If you were really lucky, there was a mailing list you […]

Show HN: State of the Art of Coding Models, According to Hacker News Commenters
The space of AI-assisted coding is evolving rapidly. This is an attempt at staying up to date with the latest developments, by capturing popularity and user sentiment of coding models from Hacker News comments. Updated daily. I wanted the ability to audit the process and the results, for debugging and for occasional sanity checks of […]
The agent harness belongs outside the sandbox

An agent harness is the loop that drives an LLM. It sends a prompt, gets a response, executes the tool calls the model requested, feeds the results back, and repeats until the model says it’s done. Every production agent has one. The question is where it runs. There are two answers. They have different security […]
Six Years Perfecting Maps on WatchOS

I love going on wilderness adventures. I am rarely happier than when I am far off into the mountains without a soul in sight. As a result, I have spent a lot of time learning how to safely explore and navigate when I’m away from civilization. The most important habit I’ve found for not getting […]
