Engineers are running 8 instances of Claude Code at once. That doesn't mean they are completing work 8x faster.

If you must hold the context for 8 agents in your head at once, your expertise as an engineer is wasted.

See https://emsh.cat/one-human-one-agent-one-browser/ - One man + one agent in 72 hours, did better than thousands of agents over weeks.

Staying focused on one or two important tasks still works. You won't fall behind.

I try to send semi-regular links of the interesting stuff I read.

I did some analysis on top title patterns. Both of these make the list pretty handily: https://projects.peercy.net/projects/hn-patterns/index.html

From what I can tell in the image:

2x6: white

2x4: blue

2x2: grey

This makes interesting patterns, since you are more likely to use certain bricks in certain positions.

People are having fun submitting their fake scores to the leaderboard: https://kevinalbs.com/spherical_snake/leaderboard/

Projects about hn on hn get a lot of attention here. I've sure done it before.

They're a lot of fun! And super easy to vibe code, if I'm looking to test a new model.

It's hard to restrain myself from navel-gazing, the lint in there is fascinating.

I'm not sure they satisfy curiosity as much as many posts with fewer votes, but that's okay.

I've written many variations of my own "quick, take a note!" app, and they all succumb to the same problem: I can't safely write a note when I'm in a car.

Driving by myself and listening to podcasts is when I have so many thoughts I want to write down.

I'll give this a serious consider.

What about email?

Email is a cousin to RSS - everyone has their email feed.

Senders push to an email inbox, rather than readers pulling feeds into an inbox.

Can I hear from those of you who have had a good IAC experience? What tools worked well?

ui idea: show the distribution over the slider

Ah! Good idea. Hurts replayability though, since we probably get not more than one 1000 pointer each week.

Yea - I didn't think too long on how to calculate points well. Is there a more balanced strategy?

Identifying some of the truly high-scoring articles (>1000) should be rewarding, and 200 vs 400 points is a pretty big difference on hn

I average a score in the range 1500-2000 (out of 2500).

I imagine those who spend more time on hn will ace it.
